STEPPING UP THE STAMPING THIS SUNDAY

As promised I have two stepped up gumball machine cards to share today.

This card was stepped up with some more colouring and the addition of the Gumball Machine Shaker Dome filled with Frosted Beads Assortment.

The turning mechanism to feed the 5 cent piece into the machine was die cut from a piece of Crushed Curry cardstock. If I could find my Round & Square Brads, I would have used one to attach the turner. Instead I used a Matte Black Dot.

For the final stepped up version, I stamped the gumball machine and then die cut the layers for the machine in Pool Party, Granny Apple Green and Silver Foil.

For the shaker dome, I cut out the place the dome would go. I filled the dome with some of the Frosted Beads Assortment and secured a piece of Window Sheet across the back. Then I took the DSP covered dome cut leftover and carefully positioned it behind the Window Sheet to align the stripes. Inside the card, I covered the lefthand side with a panel of Basic White cardstock that is slightly smaller than the card front.

Finally, I tied a double bow using some silver trim from the Simply Elegant Trim pack.

Tomorrow is my Memories on Monday day. Now to think of a way to use this bundle for scrapbooking and to find some photos that will suit it. Hmmmmm.

Until then, happy stamping.
