BACK ON YOUR FEET

The Back on Your Feet Stamp Set is one of the sets that is on my list of unused products that I need to make sure I use before the end of the year, and before the new Mini Catalogue is released.

This set is so cute and the images would cheer anyone who is feeling unwell or injured.

I started by choosing the colours for the card base and layers. The top layer, in Smoky Slate, has texture added by using the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder. All these layers were thenadhered together and added to the card base.

The image of this poor injured sloth is cute yet sad. I stamped it and then coloured it using Stampin’ Blends. Then it was cut using one of the Stitched Rectangle Dies. When the ink was dry, I brushed some Clear Wink of Stella over the image.

The ‘ouch’ was stamped and trimmed down to size and the other sentiment were stamped and cut using the same die.

Before adding these Basic White layers to the card front, I took one of the Paper Lattice pieces and colout it using the Dark Basic Black Stampin’ Blend. The lattice was glued in place and Stampin’ Dimensionals were added to the back of the white panels to pop them up.

The sloth was stamped on the envelope and the ‘ouch’ stamped inside the card.

The final touch was to add some Matte Black Dots to the front of the card.

I was so pleased with the result of colouring the lattice. There are so many possibilities for the lattice.

I have two more cards using this stamp set to share with you later in the week.

Until next time, happy stamping.

A PERFECT PURPLE PACKET OF PANSY SEEDS

After my trio of pansy card yesterday, I made a 3D double slider gift card to hold a packet of pansy seeds.

Double slider cards are so much fun to make. In the past, I have made them to hold goodies as small as gift cards and as large as a block of Lindt chocolate.

The base for the double slider card was made from Blackberry Bliss card stock and was decorated with the small pansies design from the Pansy Petals 12″x 12″ Designer Series Paper.

The Basic White and Blackberry Bliss internal layers had each of their corners rounded using the Detailed Trio Punch.

When you pull on the ribbon trimmed end of the card, both sides of the double slider card open out revealing the treat and greeting.

For the ribbons, I used some of the Pale Papaya Open Weave Ribbon and the white faux linen ribbon from the Flowers for Every Season Ribbon Combo Pack. The white faux linen was coloured using the dark Evening Evergreen Stampin’ Blend pen. The ribbons were threaded through the punched hole and tied in a knot. Some extra lengths of the Pale Papaya Ribbon were cut in half lengthways and also tied through the punched hole.

The greeting is the same as the one I used in yesterday’s card.

I added some of the 2021 – 2023 In Colour Jewels to the front of this 3D project.

This is such a pretty pansy paper design. The flowers are so sweet, small and colourful.

Who would you send a packet of pansy seeds to?

Until next time, happy stamping.
