In Color Smiles card for the Crafty Challenge Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Crafty Challenge Blog Hop where we are showcasing the new 2022 – 2024 In-colors. I have made a pretty in-color smiles card using the Sending Smiles stamp set,

Colours used in this project are:

 

To Recreate the in-color smiles card, you will need:

Sweet Sorbet card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored and folded at 4⅛”
Starry Sky card – 5⅝” by 3⅞”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” x 2 – one for the inside
Basic White card – 3¾” by 1½”

 

Using my Grid Paper and a ruler I measured down 1¼” and using a pencil drew a line across one of the larger panels of Basic White card. I drew another line about 1 ½” lower. This helped me to arrange my stamping.

I began by stamping the leafy sprig in Parakeet Party above and below the lines. The Sweet Sorbet flower was stamped next.

I used Starry Sky ink to add centres to all the flowers. The decorated panel was then glued to the Starry Sky layer using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive and the whole panel was added to the Sweet Sorbet card base using the same glue. I used a clean rubber to erase the pencil lines.

The larger part of the sentiment was stamped in Starry Sky ink and the smaller sentiment added using Sweet Sorbet………I messed this up and ended up re-stamping it onto scarp Basic white and die cutting it out using one of the labels from the co-ordinating Sending Dies. I added this over the badly stamped words using liquid adhesive. This piece was then mounted onto the card front on Dimensionals.

The sentiment from the Blessings of Home stamp set was stamped across the strip of Basic White card in Just Jade ink. I added the strips of Just Jade card to the top and bottom of the sentiment and added it to the inked panel on Dimensionals.

Eden’s Pink Garden

I love the pretty floral image from the new Eden’s Garden stamp set and wanted to try it stamped in Polished Pink to create an Eden’s pink garden.

Colours used in this project are:

 

To recreate the Eden’s pink garden card, you will need:

Thick Basic White card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Basic White card – 5⅞” by 2 ¼”
Polished Pink card – 5⅞” by ¾” x 2
Polished Pink card – 4” by 2”
Basic Gray card – 3” by 1½”
Basic White card – 3” by 1½”
Scrap Polished Pink

 

I inked up the floral image with Polished Pink ink and randomly stamped all over the piece of Basic White card. I love the layered effect this dist-INK-tive stamp leaves.

Using the Eden Dies and my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine, I cut the detailed edge from both strips of Polished Pink card and adhered them to either side of the stamped panel. The whole piece was then added to the Thick Basic White card front on Dimensionals.

The Polished Pink ink was used to stamp all over the smaller piece of Polished Pink card. A tag was die cut using the Tailor Made Tags Dies from the stamped piece.

I also die cut a smaller tag from both the Basic Gray and smaller Basic White panel. I stamped the sentiment from the Blessings of Home stamp set in Basic Gray ink onto the Basic White tag. The tags were then glued together using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

I die cut a hole protector from scrap Polished Pink card and glued it to the tags. I fed the Glittered Organdy Ribbon through the hole and tied a piece of Simply Elegant Trim in a bow around the organdie ribbon. The tags were then mounted on Dimensionals on the card front.
