aking the most of our 2016 SAB Free Stamp set Flowering Fields. Thought they were so pretty I would give them as a door prize at my monthly workshop held in Mornington, Victoria, Australia.
Project Recipe
Cut base card 25cm x 12.5cm in Whisper White Thick cardstock.
Cut a piece of Crumb Cake cardstock 12.5cm x 12.5cm. Adhere to front of card.
Cut Whisper White cardstock 11.5cm x 11.5cm.
Cut a piece of Designer Series paper 2.5cm x 11.5cm in the colour and pattern of your choice using any scraps you may have lying around. Mine mainly came from the Stampin Up Paper stacks Subtles and Neutrals
On your Whisper White card stamp the image you want using Basic Black Archival Ink. Stamp a sentiment of your choice.
Colour in your image using Stamp Write Markers to co-ordinate with the Designer Series Paper you chose.
Give the coloured image a touch of Wink of Stella clear for a lovely shimmer.
Adhere your strip of Designer Series Paper to the bottom of the Whisper White cardstock. Wrap a piece of Bakers Twine around and tie with a bow. Adhere this piece to the crumb cake card front using Tombow Liquid glue.
I decided to give this set of cards as a gift so created a lovely box using my Envelope Punch Board. Cut a piece of co-ordinating Cardstock
10" x 10" then Punch at 4 3/4" move along to 5 3/4" and punch again. Turn 90 degrees then punch on each of the scored lines and turn again 90 degrees and repeat on all sides. Cut out the two small square sections on one side and just snip the inside edge on the squares on the opposite side of envelope then adhere the closing flap to form your box.
I decorated the top of the box using one of each of the stamps, then added a strip of Designer Series Paper that was used for one of the cards and a narrow strip of Crumb Cake to match. You can add a sentiment if you wish like I did. I used Birthday Blooms stamps - 'for you' then punched it out with my 1 1/2" circle punch. Then punch out a co-ordinating scalloped circle using the 1 3/4" scalloped circle punch. Adhere the two together and adhere to the box.
