C ute baby card using Stampin' Up! products.
Project Recipe
Cut cardstock and designer paper pieces to the following sizes using a Paper Trimmer and Paper Snips Scissors:
- card from Balmy Blue Cardstock at 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" and scored at 4-1/4"
- 4" x 5-1/4" from Daffodil Delight Cardstock
- 2-3/8" x 4-7/8" from Balmy Blue Cardstock
- 2-1/4" x 4-3/8" of ducks, geese, hens, chicks, and windmills on light blue background design from Day At The Farm 12" x 12" Designer Series Paper, cut so the birds and windmills are vertical on the vertical rectangle
- 1-1/2" x 3-1/2" from Balmy Blue Cardstock
- 1-1/2" x 3-1/2" from Basic White Cardstock
Insert the large Daffodil Delight rectangle into the Hive 3D Embossing Folder. Use the line printed on the front flap of the folder to make sure it is lined up straight. Place the folder with the cardstock inside on the platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine and run through the machine.
Adhere the dry embossed Daffodil Delight rectangle to the front of the Balmy Blue card so the side that looks more like chicken wire is face up.
Adhere the strip of Day At The Farm Designer Paper to the center of the larger Balmy Blue strip.
Adhere the matted designer paper to the left side of the card front so there is about 3/16" of the yellow showing on the top, left, and bottom edges.
Cut a 4" piece of the White 3/4" Frayed Ribbon with a sharp angle on each end.
Fold the ribbon in half.
Put a small piece of Tear & Tape Adhesive on the card front so it is about 1-1/2" from the bottom of the card and just overlaps the right side of the matted designer paper a bit. Remove the protective backing. Adhere one half of the folded ribbon to the Tear & Tape strip.
Put another small piece of Tear & Tape Adhesive just above the piece of ribbon on the card front. Remove the protective backing. Adhere the other end of the folded ribbon to the Tear & Tape.
Mount one of the smaller sentiments of choice from the Celebrating You Set on Block B. Ink it up with the Balmy Blue Ink Pad. Stamp it in the center of one end of the horizontal white strip, leaving room to punch it out.
Unlock the Double Oval Punch. Hold the punch upside down so you can see the punching area. Slide the stamped sentiment into the opened punch and get it centered in the smooth oval punching area. Punch. Leave the punch unlocked.
Slide one end of the horizontal, thin Balmy Blue strip into the opened, upside down Double Oval Punch. Get the cardstock centered in the scalloped oval punching area. Punch.
Adhere the white sentiment oval punch out to the center of the blue scalloped oval punch out.
Use Stampin' Dimensionals to adhere the matted sentiment ovals to the front of the card so it covers the folded end of the ribbon and the right side of the oval is about 1/4" from the right side of the card.
Use the mini spatula on the Take Your Pick to carefully peel up 1 large Balmy Blue gem from the sheet of Iridescent Pastel Gems making sure you get the adhesive backing as well. Adhere it to the upper right corner of the card.
