P retty card for a friend using Stampin' Up! products.
Project Recipe
Cut card stock and designer series paper pieces to the following sizes using a Stampin' Trimmer:
- card from Blushing Bride Cardstock at 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" and scored at 4-1/4"
- 4" x 5-1/4" from Fresh Fig Cardstock
- 3-7/8" x 5-1/8" from Blushing Bride Cardstock
- 1-3/4" x 3-7/8" of vanilla lattice with flowers on Fresh Fig background design from Fresh Floral Designer Series Paper Stack,
- 2-3/4" x 3-1/4" from Fresh Fig Cardstock
- 2" x 3-1/4" from Blushing Bride Cardstock
- scrap of Fresh Fig Cardstock at least 1-3/4" wide
- scrap of Blushing Bride Cardstock at least 1-3/4" wide
Rub the Sponge Dauber across the open Blushing Bride Ink Pad to ink it up. Then, rub the ink onto the piece of Fresh Florals Designer Series Paper to color in the lattice work and flowers. Re-ink the Sponge Dauber as needed.
Adhere the altered designer paper to the bottom of the large rectangle of Blushing Bride Cardstock.
Cut a 5" piece of Gold 1/4" Natural Trim. Lay the ribbon flat on your work surface and use the brush tip of the Blushing Bride Marker to color the ribbon.
Lay the ribbon piece across the card front so it hides the seam between the Blushing Bride Cardstock and designer paper . Flip the card front over and fold the ends of the ribbon over. Adhere them in place with pieces of Tear & Tape Adhesive across the ends.
Remove the protective backing from the Tear & Tape strips and add more SNAIL to the back of layer. Adhere the layer to the large rectangle of Fresh Fig and then to the front of the Blushing Bride card.
Pick out the curvy heart framelit from the Sweet & Sassy Framelits that cuts out a curvy heart that is 2-3/4" wide. Place the smaller Fresh Fig rectangle on the Cutting Pad on top of the Platform on the Big Shot. Place the curvy heart framelit on top. Place another Cutting Pad on top and run through the Big Shot.
Adhere the heart cut out to the top of the card front in the center.
Pick out the "friend" thinlit from the Lovely Words Thinlits. Place the smaller Blushing Bride rectangle on the Precision Plate on top of the Platform on the Big Shot. Place the "friend" thinlit on top so you will cut out the word friend. Place a Cutting Pad on top and run through the Big Shot a couple of times. Use the Die Brush to remove the cardstock.
Cut the word friend free of any excess cardstock if needed using Paper Snips.
Place the word cut out upside down on one side of a Silicone Craft Sheet. Cut a Stamping Sponge into quarters and clamp the triangle edge of one quarter in a large binder clip. Squeeze a small amount of Multipurpose Liquid Glue on one corner of the Silicone Craft Sheet. Dab the sponge into the glue and then lightly onto the back of the word cut out. Flip the word cut out over and adhere it across the top of the heart on the card front at a slight angle. You can bend the word a little.
Mount the "You're the Best" or "Thank you for caring" sentiment from the Label Me Pretty Set on Block B. Ink it up with the Fresh Fig Ink Pad. Stamp it in the center of the scrap of Blushing Bride Cardstock.
Unlock the 1-3/8" Circle Punch and hold the punch upside down so you can see the punching area. Slide the stamped sentiment into the punch and center the punching area over the sentiment. Punch.
Unlock the 1-1/2" Circle Punch. Slide the scrap of Fresh Fig Cardstock into the punch and punch.
Adhere the sentiment circle to the center of the Fresh Fig circle.
Adhere the sentiment circles to the card front on the bottom right side of the heart at a slight angle using Stampin' Dimensionals.
Pick out a Powder Pink or a Fresh Fig Bitty Bow from the 2017-2019 In Color Bitty Bows. Peel the protective backing off the adhesive dot on the back. Adhere to the left side of the heart on the card front at an angle so it covers the beginning of the word "friend."
