A NEW FUN FOLD CARD FOR YOU TODAY

Fun Fold Friday is everything the title says – Friday, Fun Fold card and heaps of Fun.

The card today is an ARROW Fun Fold card.

I used a half sheet of Bermuda Bay cardstock for the card base. After marking the centre of the card front, along the bottom of the front flap, I scored from that point up to the top outer corners. Then I scored from the same centre point to 1-1/2″ from the top outer corners. After burnishing these score lines I was able to create the arrow shape.

The Pattern Party 12″x 12″ Designer Series Paper was perfect for the panel sections of the card.

I stamped the kite tail directly onto the DSP. After I stamped, coloured and fussy cut the kite, it had Stampin’ Dimensionals attached so that the kite would look as it was floating. This was repeated with the clouds.

The sentiment was stamped, cut out and popped up with dimensionals.

Using the Dark Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends pen, I coloured some Rhinestone Basic Jewels to add the centre of each of the bows.

I stamped a cloud on the card insert and envelope.

Tomorrow I will have a new stamp set collection to share with you for the week.

Until then. happy stamping.

A CUSTOM GIFT BOX FOR A FRECKLE MILK CHOCOLATE BUNNY

For today’s 3D Thursday project I made a custom gift box for a gorgeous freckle covered milk chocolate bunny. To be honest, the box it came in was very abergare.

The Easter Friends Stamp Set is the set I chose to use – it is another stand alone set.

The finished box measures 5-3/4″x 4-1/2″x 5/8″.

I used Flirty Flamingo cardstock for the box.

The front Basic White panel was stamped with the bunny and grass images. I used the Flirty Flamino and Basic Gray Water Colour Pencils to lightly shade areas of the bunny. A Blender Pen was used to lightly blend the colour.

The sentiment was stamped on the panel as well. A simple bow was tied from a length of Misty Moonlight Cotton Ribbon. This ribbon is from the New Horizons Suite.

Finally, I coloured some Rhinestone Basic Jewels with the Dark Melon Mambo Stampin’ Blend.

Isn’t the chocolate freckle bunny so cute.

I will make another gift box durin my Facebook Live so that I will have a second Easter bunny gift box – one for each of my daughters.

Tomorrow I have a fun fold card to share with you.

Until then, happy stamping.

FRESHLY BREWED PROJECT BLOG HOP

Time for another blog hop project. This week the Freshly Brewed Project theme is water.sea.

I chose two stand alone stamp sets for this project – this week is all about featuring stamp sets that do not have any coordinating products – they stand alone.

For this theme I chose the Oceanfront Stamp Set. For the sentiment, I went with the In the Moment Stamp Set.

It is a very simple card with the colours doing all the work – Pacific Point, Bermuda Bay, Crumb Cake, Soft Suede and Soft Succulent.

I love using photopolymer stamps because it is so easy to position the images.

After I stamped the scene, I adhered this panel to a Bermuda Bay cardbase.

The sentiment I chose was only partially inked because I only wanted the word ‘relax’. After I trimmed the sentiment down, I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back to pop it up.

IThen I stamped some sea grass on the card insert and envelope.

I added some Pebbles Enamel Shapes to the card.

Make sure that you hop over to see what the other members of the Freshly Brewed Project Crew have created.

Tomorrow is 3D Thursday. So join me then to see what I have made.

Until then, happy stamping.
