THURSDAY IS TIME FOR A 3D PROJECT

Today’s 3D project is a 3″x 3″x 3″ cube gift box with a fold over lid.

I used Blackberry Bliss cardstock to create the box.

I carefully cut one of the DSP designs to ensure the pattern of the design aligned around the boc.

After adhering the DSP panels to the box I punched a slot for the ribbon and then constructed the box.

I coloured a length of Silver & White Sheer Ribbon and tied it around the box and tied a bow.

The greeting was stamped and cut using one of the Spotlight on Nature Dies. A Blackberry Bliss was cirlce was alos cut using another of the Spotlight on Nature Dies.

The two circles were joined using Stampin’ Dimensionals and then, after adding more dimensionals to the Blackberry Bliss circle, I positioned the circles over the ribbon on the top of the box.

The final touch was to colour some Metallic Gems to add to the lid of the box.

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

Until then, happy stamping and scrapbooking.

If you live in Australia, you can order any of the products I used to make this card by going to my online store. As you read through this post, you will see the products I used for this project. The new items are available from May 5th.

TUESDAY IS ALL ABOUT TIPS & TECHNIQUES

Today I have a shaker card to share with you. It is a great technique that suits so many products.

As I am featuring the Celebratory Sips Suite Collection, I decided to make a card with three cut out glasses to show the shaker elements.

I die cut the three glasses and then secured a window sheet panel behind it.

Using Foam Adhesive Sheets, I created a border to hold the shakers elements in place and an outer border to hold the shaker elements in place.

I filled the shaker space with lots of images that I fussy cut from a sheet of DSP.

An extra Basic White panel was placed behind the card front and shaker elements. Then I adhered this shaker layer to a Granny Apple Green card base.

The greeting was stamped in Versamark, and then heat embossed with the Ebony Wow Embossing Powder, three times.

Using one of the square dies, from the Stylish Shapes Dies, was used to cut the greetings down to perfectly sized rectangles.

I used Multipurpose Glue to glue them in place and a Mini Glue Dot to attach each end to the wondow sheet.

Using more of the fussy cut images, I decorated the card front, card insert and back of the envelope.

Finally, I added some of the black Classic Matte Dots to the card front.

With the DSP in this collection it is very easy to step this shaker card up to another level.

Essentially the same card but I added some colour behind the shaker space before adding the shaker elements.

The greeting was created in the same way ut was cut using one of the banner dies from the Stylish Shapes.Dies.

The card insert and back of the envelope had fussy cut glasses added.

To finish the card I added some Itty Bitty Bokeh Mix sequins to the front of the card.

It’s always fun to ‘recreate’ a card design but step it up a bit.

Tomorrow I have a ‘CASEd’ card to share with you.

Until then, happy stamping and scrapbooking.

If you live in Australia, you can order any of the products I used to make this card by going to my online store. As you read through this post, you will see the products I used for this project. The new items are available from May 5th.

For this project I focused on the amazing Designer Series Paper and did a lot of fussy cutting.

I used one of the Secret Sea DSP deigns as a background for the shadow box decor project.

Then, after fussy cutting these 10 different drinks glasses, I positioned the glasses on the DSP and used Stampin’ Dimensionals to pop them up.

Finally, I added some Metallic Gems to the DSP and assembled the shadow box.

Until then, happy stamping and scrapbooking.
