GOOD THINGS COME TO THOSE WHO WAIT

I know that you have been waiting for quite a few days for my next post to land. Thank you for your patience.

Since my last post I have been getting ahead with my Colour INKspiration Challenge projects. I have just scheduled my late September project. In doing so I have been slack in sharing projects in ‘real time’.

Today I have a great masculine card to share with you, featuring the Gone Fishing Bundle.

… and the coordinating Let’s Go Fishing 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper. I used five of the 12 designs in this card.

I started with a Wild Wheat card base and cut the four panels I would use for the card.

The first panel had the greeting stamped, in Boho Blue, directly on it. This was then adhered on the card base.

The three thinner panels were layered together before a length of Boho Blue trim, from the 2023-2025 In Colour Jute Trim pack, was wrapped and tied in a knot. Then I unravelled the ends of the jute trim.

The panels were then popped up on the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Using the fish die, from the Gone Fishing Dies collection, I cut three different fish from one of the paper designs. I added some dimensionals under each fish and then positioned themabove the greeting.

The card insert and envelope each had some of the Designer Series Paper added to embellish them.

The final touch was to add some Boho Blue 2023-2024 In Colour Dots for a little bling.

In a couple of days I will be sharing the brand new products from the September – December 2023 Mini Catalogue! Most of my preorder has arrived and I am just waiting for a few extra items I left off my original order.

WHEN A TACKLE BOX CAN BE SEEN AS SOMETHING DIFFERENT

When I first saw the Gone Fishing Dies, I didn’t picture a tackle box. I saw a makeup palette filled with sparkling eye shadows.

I made the makeup box using Basic Black cardstock and Foam Adhesive Strips. To help the foam strips ‘fit in’, I used the Dark Basic Black Stampin’ Blends to colour ini the white sides.

I used the same sectioned die to cut the small coloured pieces. These were then given some gorgeous shimmer using the Wink of Stella Brush.

The greeting and die are both from the Something Fancy Bundle.

I added some of the 2023-2025 In Colour Dots to give the palette even more bling.

It took me three shops before I found these foam makeup sticks. I coloured them to match the palette. They were then secured using Mini Glue Dots.

I think the next project I amke with this Suite Collection is a shaker card – stay tuned.

Tomorrow I have a new project to share with you. It will feature the Just My Type Stamp Set.

Until then, happy stamping.
