Enjoy the Run Double Z Fold card for the Ink. Stamp. Share Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Ink. Stamp. Share Blog Hop where we are sharing something we have been working on recently. I have chosen to share the enjoy the run birthday card made for my husband’s upcoming birthday using the Enjoy the Day designer series paper. He is a keen ultra-runner and loves to run in 30 – 100-mile events – so this dsp and the co-ordinating Greatest Journey Dies were perfect for his birthday card.

Colours used in this card are:

 

To recreate the enjoy the run card, you will need:

Starry Sky card base – 11” by 5½” – scored at 2¾” and 5½”
Basic White card – 5⅜” by 5⅜”
Enjoy the Journey dsp – 5¼” by 5¼”
Basic White card – 5⅜” by 2⅝”
Enjoy the Journey dsp – 5¼” by 5¼”

Thick Basic White inner card base – 9¼” by 4¼”
Enjoy the Journey dsp – 4⅛” by 3⅝”
Enjoy the Journey dsp – 4⅛” by 2⅝”
Scrap Basic White and Basic Black
Basic White card – 5¼” by 5¼”

 

Using Multipurpose Liquid adhesive I glued the larger pieces of designer series paper (dsp)  – I used the starry sky patten – to the slightly larger panels of Basic White card. The panels were then glued to the Starry Sky card base.

I die cut 3 or 4 of the ‘ground’ strips from scrap Basic Black card and laid them out along the bottom of the 3 smaller panels of dsp – I used the green mountains and trees pattern – I moved them around until I got the look of a connected strip of ground.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A beautiful fun fold card made using the Happiness Abounds stamp set, Blossomng Happiness Dies and Hues of Happiness dsp for the Share It Sunday Blog Hop

I glued the panels of the gorgeous, Hues of Happiness dsp to the larger Melon Mambo panel. The largest piece to the larger panel, then skip a panel and adhere one of the thinner dsp panels to the next panel. Then skip another panel before adhering the final piece of dsp to the final section of the Melon Mambo card base.

The sentiment was stamped in Mossy Meadow ink onto one of the panels and a flower and leaf combo were added to the bottom of the panel with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. This panel was placed, using the same adhesive in the centre of the largest panel.

The two remaining Basic White panels were adhered to the smaller panel of Melon Mambo which was folded on the central score line.

I applied Tear and Tape to the shorter sides of the smaller Melon Mambo piece, placed the piece over the Basic White panel on the back panel and adhered the front of the smaller Melon Mambo piece to the folded front panel. I repeat this step when adhering the back piece.

Glossy Dots were added to decorate the card.

We added the folded Very Vanilla card to the Pear Pizzazz panel.

The piece of Daffodil Afternoon dsp was added to the front of the Very Vanilla panel with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

We ran the die cut scalloped rectangle through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine with the Stitched Greenery Die. This adds texture without fussiness. The rectangle was then added, offset to the card front.

We then die cut the pieces for the daffodil and leaves from scrap Daffodil Delight, Crushed Curry and Pear Pizzazz card. The leaves and stem were added to to the card front with liquid glue. The pieces of the daffodil were stuck together with liquid glue and added to the card front on Dimensionals.

To complete the card, we added a bow made from the black Glittered Organdy Ribbon.

After cutting the piece of Daffodil Afternoon dsp to the sizes given above, we adhered each piece to the slightly larger Daffodil Delight layer.

These panels were then added t the card front with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

The sentiment, from the Elegantly Said stamp set was stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto the small panel of Very Vanilla card and punched out using the Tailored Tag Punch. We backed this with a Basic Black punched piece cut in half and added to the back. The sentiment was added to the card front on Dimensionals.

This is such a simple card to put together and is a great way to use dsp.

 

Strips of dsp card

We cut ½” strips from our dsp sheets and added them to the Very Vanilla strip with glue. The excess pieces were trimmed off with scissors.

Using the Scalloped Contour Dies we die cut the scalloped border on one side of the Pear Pizzazz panel and added the panel of dsp strips with liquid glue.

We placed the piece on the card front for placement before stamping the sentiment in Old Olive ink.

A piece of the black Glittered Organdy Ribbon and the whole panel was then added to the Very Vanilla card front on Dimensionals. A bow made from the same ribbon was added to finish the card.

The stunning Beauty of the Earth designer series paper by Stampin' Up! and used to make a clever fun fold card

Beauty of the Earth dsp

Today I am sharing a simple but clever card made from the Beauty of the Earth designer series paper. I saw an example of this style of card made by fellow demonstrator Julie Davison and had to try it myself.

Colours used in this project are;

To recreate the Beauty of the Earth card, you will need:

Beauty of the Earth dsp – 12” by 4” – scored at 5 ½” and 11” on the long-side
Bumblebee card – 5¼” by 3⅝” – rounded upper right corner
Basic White card – 5⅛” by 3½” – rounded upper right corner
Soft Sea Foam – 3 ¾” by 2 ¼” – rounded upper right corner
Scrap Soft Sea Foam. Mossy Meadow & Basic White

I folded and burnished on the 5½” score line and again on the 11” score line, but this time folded it back on itself. I glued the 1” strip down with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. It makes such a nice contrast don’t you think?

The tree trunk was stamped in Soft Suede ink onto the Basic White panel. I added the tree canopy in Mossy Meadow ink and the more detailed leafy layer in Bumblebee to give a more textured look.

The same tree trunk was stamped again in Soft Suede ink onto the small panel of Soft Sea Foam. I stamped the tree canopy and leaves again in the same way onto scrap Soft Sea Foam and die cut using the Beautiful Tree dies and my Mini Cut & Emboss Machine. The canopy was added to the trunk with the liquid glue. I added a speckle of green spots around the tree image. The panel was added to the card front with Dimensionals.
