IT’S FRIDAY & TIME FOR SOME FEATURES AND A FUN FOLD CARD

This week I used the Just Kiddin’ Suite Collection and Filled with Fun Bundle.

The Just Kiddin’ Suite, as you can see below, includes the Kiddin’ Around Cling Stamp set. This set has five fun images and three wonderful greetings.

The suite also has a coordinating set of 14 dies.

The Just Kiddin’ Designer Series Paper has 12 sheets – 2 each of 6 double sided designs. One side has a variety of images of children and the other side has wonderful background designs.

Finally, there is a pack of Iridescent Foil Gems to add bling to projects.

The Filled with Fun Bundle includes the Filled with Fun Photopolymer Stamp Set. The stamp set has 10 amazing images to help you stamp and build some amazing pull cart variations. It also has three lovely greetings.

I still have so many ideas for using these products.

For my final project this week , I have made a fun fold card. I started with a card base measuring 12″ x 6″.

I scored the 12″ side at 6″, 9″ and 10 1/2″.

I cut this blue DSP design to fit each of the card base panels.

THen I spent time fussy cutting each of the reading characters to include in the card.

The Mini Alphabet Dies were perfect to create each of the words included in this card.

I don’t think that have done this much fussy cutting in quite a while. I really like the little reader tucked in under his blanket.

On the ‘read with passion’ page, I included a gift card pocket. This will be the perfect place for a bookstore gift card for an avid little reader.

I am not sure what I will have for you tomorrow. So until then, happy stamping.

THURSDAY MEANS THAT IT’S TIME FOR A 3D PROJECT

The momwnt I saw the pull cart image in the Just Kiddin’ Designer Series Paper and thedies in the Filled with Fun Dies, I knew that I wanted to make a 3D pull cart.

When I made this (26 March) we still had Easter ahead of us.

I started by creating a small rectangular cart base. Then I was able to attach the Poppy Parade cart sides and the Basic White timber textured side panels.

The wheels were made using Basic Black card and Poppy Parade inner circles. I added Adhesive Sheet to the Poppy Parade card to make it so easy to fill in the centre of the tyres.

I cut two of the pulling mechanisms in Basic Black and adhered them together. After leaving the lower ends of the mechanism, I was able to fold them open and adhere them to the catd.

The greeting, from the Excellent Eggs Stamp Set, was stamped onto a small piece of Basic White scrap. I adhered this piece just inside the cart.

The bunny was stamped and coloured using Smoky Slate and Pretty in Pink Stampin’ Blends. It was die cut and then adhered to the greeting panel.

Tomorrow I have a Fancy Fold card to share with you.

Until then, happy stamping.

WELL, WHAT’S HAPPENING THIS WEDNESDAY

Woohoo, it’s Wednesday and another opportunity to share something new.

Today’s card is ‘amazing’.

I was so pleased to see the wonderful panels on two of the Designer Series Paper sheets. I used this playground panel for the background on my Poppy Parade cardbase

After looking at all the images on the Just Kiddin’ Designer Series Paper, I chose the three children in the pull cart for this card.

I was able to cut it using one of the Kiddin’ Around Dies.

I also used the Filled with Fun Dies to cut a Poppy Parade cart, Basic White timber side, pull handle in Basic Black and wheels in Basic Black and Poppy Parade.

After I layered all these elements and adhered them together, I had created an amazing pull cart with happy children inside.

The completed pull cart was then added to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The greeting, from the Kiddin’ Around Stamp Set, was stamped in Poppy Parade before being trimmed down and added to the front of the card.

I stamped the cluster of stars, from the stamp set, on the card insert and envelope.

Tomorrow I have a small 3D Easter project to share with you – albeit a week late for Easter.Until then, happy stamping.
