Hello to each of you who have popped by to see today’s project. Thank you so much for visiting – I appreciate you taking the time.
Today I took inspiration from Melody Hyde, a demonstrator who also leads the Concept Art Team at Stampin’ Up!®. She is incredibly talented and creative, and “knows her stuff”.
She shared a quick vidoe showing how to use the Tailored Tag Punch to punch hexagonal shapes. I have a link to that video for you to watch for yourself:
I prepared my punch with the same markings. Then I chose my Designer Series PAper and colours – Sweet Symmetry 12″x 12″ DSP and Night of Navy meets Basic White.
I cut a 1-1/2″ wide strip of paper from the DSP and then punched several hexagons. I also punched a few Basic White shapes. These three were then stamped using one of the floral images from the In Symmetry Stamp Set using the Night of Navy Classic Stampin’ Pad.
The DSP hexagons were the first to be adhered in place. The Basic White shapes were then added using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
The greeting is also from the In Symmetry Stamp Set. After it was trimmed down to this size I adhered it directly to the card front.
A bow was made using lengths of White 1/4″ Crinkled Seam Binding and White Baker’s Twine from the Essentials Pack.
The same floral image was stamped on the card insert and envelope. The last step was to add some Night of Nave Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card, just for that bit of bling.
I am so excited by how well this card has turned out! What do you think?
I should apologise for the really short posts that I have for you this week. They were made and scheduled last week because I am out of action for a week – it has been a bit of a ‘rush job’.
Until tomorrow, happy stamping.
If you live in Australia, you can order any of the products I used to make this card by going to my online store. Just click on any of the images below.
