Lovely Arrangements Classes

Hello and welcome to the Stampin Dreams Blog Hop where we are sharing birthday cards. Fortuitously, today is the last of my March classes where we have been making birthday cards using the gorgeous Lovely Arrangements stamp set and dies.

Colours used to make these cards are:

 

Pop Out Accordion Card

Thick Basic White card base – 8” by 5⅞”” scored on the long-side at 2”, 4” and 6”
Cloud Cover- 5¾” by 1⅞” x 4
Thick Basic White base – 3” by 6” scored at 3”
Secret Sea – 2⅞” by 2 ⅞” x 2
Basic White 2¾” by 2¾” x 2
Scrap Basic White

 

The 4 pieces of Cloud Cover card were placed in a row, butted up against each other. The leafy sprig was then randomly stamped all over the panels with Cloud Cover ink. The stamped panels were then adhered to the larger Thick White card base, one in each of the sections.

 

 

The sentiment, from the Simply Said stamp set was stamped in Secret Sea ink onto one of the squares of Basic White card. I added a swirl of Cloud Cover ink using a Blending Brush before gluing the panel to the Secret Sea square and then to the other piece of Thick Basic White card.

 

 

A little Cloud Cover ink was then added to the remaining Basic White square before it was glued to the remaining Secret Sea square and then to the other side of the Thick Basic White panel.

 

With the larger card base folded up, accordion style I adhered the left-hand side of the decorated panel to the front of the accordion panel, taking care that it would fit in a standard C6 Envelope. I repeated this step to glue the back panel of the pop out portion.

 

The flowers were stamped on scrap Basic White card with Secret Sea ink and the leaves with Granny Apple Green ink. These were then cut out using the Lovely Arrangements dies. I added colour to the flowers with Petal Pink Blends Pens. These were then added to the card front.

 

Petal Pink Flowers Card

Granny Apple Green card – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” on the long side
Secret Sea – 5¼” by 3½”
Basic White – 5⅛” by 3⅜”
Lovely Blossoms dsp – 4” by ¾”
Cloud Cover – 3¾” by ¾”
Cloud Cover – 3” by ⅜”
Scrap Basic White

 

We ran the 5⅛” by 3⅜” panel of Basic White card through the Cut & Emboss machine with the Lovely Stripes Embossing Folder and adhered it to the Secret Sea layer and then to the Granny Apple Green card front.

 

We die cut a row of circles from the piece of Cloud Cover card measuring 3¾” by ¾” and adhered it to the back of the piece of Lovely Blossoms dsp and then glued it to the card front.

 

The flowers were stamped on scrap Basic White card with Secret Sea ink and the leaves with Granny Apple Green ink. These were then cut out using the Lovely Arrangements dies. I added colour to the flowers with Petal Pink Blends Pens. These were then added to the card front.

 

The sentiment, from the Simply Said stamp set was stamped in Secret Sea ink onto the small strip of Cloud Cover card which was then added to the dsp panel and the flowers and leaves tucked around it.

We ran the 5⅛” by 3⅜” panel of Basic White card through the Cut & Emboss machine with the Lovely Stripes Embossing Folder and adhered it to the Thick Basic White card front.

 

From the piece of Secret Sea card, we die cut the panel of circles and adhered it to the card front.

 

The flowers were stamped on scrap Basic White card with Secret Sea ink and the leaves with Granny Apple Green ink. These were then cut out using the Lovely Arrangements dies. These were then added to the card front. On Dimensionals.
