Oh my goodness, I am loving the Oceanfront and On the Horizon stamp sets and have created a distant trees card using them both and the Horizon Dies for the Ink. Stamp. Share Blog Hop where we are sharing something we have been working on.

Colours used in this card are:

 

To recreate the distant trees card, you will need:

Pear Pizzazz card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Garden Green card – 5” by 3¼”
Basic White card – 4¾” by 3
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” for the inside
Scrap Basic White card

 

I started by placing a ¾” punched circle near the top of the smaller panel of Basic White card and stamped over it using Balmy Blue ink to create the sky. I removed the mask and added So Saffron ink to the sun with a Dauber.

Pattern Party dsp and Oceanfront stamp set used to make a pretty pinched top bag for the Stamp 'n Hop Blog Hop using Stampin' Up! products

Pinch Topped Bag for the Stamp ‘n Hop Blog Hop

Posted on by

Hello and Welcome to the Stamp ‘n Hop Blog Hop where we are sharing packaging ideas. I have a pretty pinch top bag which I have made to hold a Lotus biscuit, my treat for the ladies coming to class this week.

Colours used in this project are:

 

To recreate the pinch top bag, you will need:

Basic White card – 2½” by 1½”
Pattern Party dsp – 4⅝” by 4”
Basic White – 3½” by 1¼”

 

Using my Simply Scored Scoring Tool, I scored the 2½” by 1½” piece of Basic White at ½” on all four sides.

I cut down to form the four tabs and wedged out a little to help the tabs fold in efficiently to give a better finish.

Fold on all the score lines, add strong glue to each tab and fold in to form a 3d base.

Stick Tear ‘n Tape all the way around the outside of the box and as near the bottom as possible. It is really important to use a strong adhesive for this. Also place a strip of Tear ‘n tape along the 4” edge of the dsp on the reverse side

Peel off the adhesive backing: place the edge of the 4⅝” piece of dsp (the edge without the Tear ‘n Tape) against the bottom of the box with the chosen pattern to the outside. I always start in the middle of one of the long sides as you get a better finish to your bag.

Using your fingers work the dsp around the sides of the box pressing it onto the Tear ‘n Tape. Resist the temptation to crease the dsp, you get a better finish. You should have about ½” of an overlap with the adhesive on the inside.

Peel off the backing and adhere the two sides off the dsp together allowing it to bow out a little.

I die cut a tag from the remaining piece of Basic White using the Tailor-Made Tag Dies.

The ground was stamped in Sahara Sand ink and the sky in Balmy Blue ink. I added the grasses with Early Espresso ink and stamped the sentiment, from the Hydrangea stamp set in Sahara Sand ink.

The lighthouse from the Sailing Home stamp set was stamped in Cinnamon Cider ink onto scrap Basic White card and die cut out using the Smooth Sailing Dies and the Mini Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. I coloured the image with Cinnamon Cider and Balmy Blue Blends Markers and mounted it onto the stamped panel with Dimenionals. I added a couple of boulders stamped in Sahara Sand ink and fussy cut them out, they were added to the base of the lighthouse on Mini Dimensionals.

For the Stamper's Showcase Blog Hop we are CASEing the catalogue and I have chosen to use the Hello Ladybug card

Missing Ladybug for the Stamper’s Showcase Blog Hop

Posted on by

 

Hello and welcome to the Stampers Showcase Blog Hop where we are CASEing a project from the catalogue. CASeing means either Copy and Share Everything, which basically means making the card as it is shown or Copy and Selectively Edit which means using the project as a jumping off point and adding your own spin to it. I have chosen the sweet, Missing Ladybug card from page 20 of the January – June Mini Catalogue and have made it my own by changing the colour combo.

 

 

Colours used in this project are:

 

To recreate the missing ladybug card, you will need:

Fresh Freesia card base – 8 ¼” by 5⅝” scored at 4⅛”
Gorgeous Grape card – 5⅝” by ½”
Basic White card – 5⅝” by 3”
Pool Party card – 3¼” by 1¼”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside
Scrap Basic White card

Using the trio of flowers, I stamped up the front of the smaller Basic White panel with Gorgeous Grape ink.

The strip of Gorgeous Grape card was added to the left-hand side of the stamped panel using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. The whole piece was then mounted onto the Fresh Freesia card front on Dimensionals.
