TIME FOR A SNEAK PEEK

Hello and welcome. Thanks for popping by for today’s blog hop.

It is Wednesday afternoon and that means it’s time for a Freshly Brewed Project Blog Hop.

This week’s theme is It’s a(nother) Sale-a-bration! So it’s time to share some of the fantastic FREEBIES from the Sale-a-bration Brochure. You only have August and September to place your qualifying orders – for each $90 you spend you can choose one of 9 different new products (or you can choose the one product that needs a $180 order).

I decided to use the Penguin Playmates 12″x 12″ Designer Series Paper. It coordinates with the Penguin Place Bundle from the Annual Catalogue.

I used a Misty Moonlight card base and stamped the stars and spots image on areas of the card front. Then I cut three 1-1/2″ strips of the DSP. One side of the paper has different penguin, fox and polar bear designs and the other side has coordinating geometric designs. I used the Triple Banner Punch to cut a banner end on two of the strips. These were then positioned evenly on the card front.

Then I fussy cut some of the cute pengions from the DSP and popped them across the card front. And, they look like they’re having fun.

The greeting is from the Penguin Place Stamp Set and it was cut using the long, thin stitched rectangle die from the Suit & Tie Dies set. I stamped the balloon and streamer in Just Jade on the card insert and envelope. LAst, but not least, I added some of the 2020 – 2022 In Colour Square Gems.

I can’t believe that I forgot to place the Penguin Place Stamp Set in the photo of the products I used.

I can’t wait to see what the other Freshly Brewed Project team members share. Make sure that you swing by and see what Sale-a-bration products they have used and what they have made.

What do you think of these projects? Which Sale-a-bration product will be on your wishlist?

UNtil tomorrow, happy stamping.

FLOWER POWER

Hello everyone. Thanks for taking the time to pop by to check out today’s project.

Today I have a card for this week’s Global Design Project theme challenge – #303 is all about Flower Power.

For my card I decided to use the Sweet as a Peach Stamp Set.

I started by stamping the flowers. To do this, I used sponge daubers to apply the colours to each flower before stamping onto Shimmery White cardstock. The coordinating dies from the Peach Dies set were used to cut the flowers. I also stamped and die cut some of the leaves.

I used a Basic Black card base and adhered a panel of paper from the You’re a Peach Designer Series Paper pack.

The Paper Lattice piece was popped up onto another piece of Basic Black cardstock using Black Stampin’ Dimensionals. Then the black panel also popped up with dimensionals.

Some of the flowers had some leaves attached to the back. Then I started attaching the flowers and had them cascade down the lattice.

The birthday greeting was stamped in Calypso Coral ink and was then cut using one of the Stitched Rectangle Dies. Guess what? It has double dimensionals holding it up.

I added some Elegant Faceted Gems and a small bow of Pale Papaya Open Weave Ribbon that was cut in half. The last thing I did was to paint some Clear Wink of Stella across all the flowers and leaves.

I really like the Paper Lattice pieces. They are going to be so much fun to create with.

What do you think? Have you used the Paper Lattice pieces yet?

Until tomorrow, happy stamping.

PINWHEEL TOWER GIFT BOX

Hello and welcome to Monday! I am so delighted that you have taken some time out of your day to pop on by to see what I have to share with you today.

There are so many Pinwheel Tower cards that I have seen recently – and, they are amazing. For me, I decided to take it a step further.

My question was – how can I convert this into a combination card and gift box?

After a few prototypes (unsuccessful and slowly becoming successful), this is the end result.

I have lots and lots of photos to show you all aspects of this gift box card. At the core of the card is a 1-1/2″x $-1/4″ ‘tower’. Then, four 3″x 4-1/4″ panels are adhered to each of the four sides of the ‘tower’. For this project I chose the Whimsy & Wonder Specialty Designer Series Paper and colour scheme for this tower.

The first dies reveals the Christmas greeting, before moving onto the second ‘wing’.

The second side includes a gift card holder. The exciting thing about this project is that each side features two DSP designs.

This side features a pocket to slide a “to:” and “from:” tag into. (Oops – I didn’t remove the splotch of dried glue from the pocket – it is clean now!). The Tailor Made Tags Dies were perfect for this side of the card.

This image shows the ‘ribbon belly band’ I made to hold the top and bottom box flaps in place. The Specialty DSP is just so gorgeous and I love this non-traditional colour scheme for Christmas.

This is what the gift box looks like with top and bottom flaps open – imagine the gift has been removed. The card can now be folded flat.

The Christmas greeting is from the Holly Jolly Wishes Stamp Set and was stamped in Misty Moonlight ink before being cut using one of the Hippo & Friends Dies. Because the card needs to be folded flat, the greeting was glued directly onto this layer.

The next few photos will give you a chance to see the ribbon ‘belly band’ in a little more detail. The flowers were cut, using the Merriest Frames Dies, from the Snowy White 12″x 12″ Velvet Sheets. Then I used Blending Brushes to add a light colouring of Blushing Bride and Just Jade to these elements. I used Mini Glue Dots to hold them all together. Then I attached a few Elegant Faceted Gems to the centre of the flower.

I cut a length of Blushing Bride Frayed Grosgrain Ribbon in half, frayed it a little further and then tied it through the hole in the tag.

Although there is a place for a gift to be popped insode the ‘tower’, it is always great to have a place to include a gift card.

And, this is the last panel fold. I love the way that each time the card is folded flat the Specialty DSP is featured.

And, now you get a sneak peek of some of the new products from the July – December Mini Catalogue. The ‘old’ works so well with the ‘new’!

So, what do you think of my Pinwheel Tower Gift Box Card? It’s a hybrid!

So until my next post, happy stamping.
