S imple, pretty thank you card using Stampin' Up! products.
Project Recipe
Cut cardstock, foil sheets, and designer paper pieces to the following sizes using a Paper Trimmer:
- card from Whisper White Thick Cardstock at 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" and scored at 4-1/4"
- 1-3/4" x 5" of mottled blue background design from See A Silhouette Designer Series Paper
- 3" x 4" of dark and light blue mottled swirls outlined in white design from See A Silhouette Designer Series Paper
- 3" square from Balmy Blue Cardstock
- 2-1/4" square of Blueberry Bushel foil from Noble Peacock Foil Sheets
WITHOUT ADHERING, lay the two pieces of See A Silhouette Designer Paper on the front of the Whisper White Thick card so the 1-3/4" strip is about 1/8" from the left side and the large rectangle is about 1/2" from the top and 1/4" from the right side.
Mount the "Thank You" sentiment from the Peaceful Moments Set on Block C. Ink it up with the Night of Navy Ink Pad. Stamp it in the lower right corner of the card front in the space left by the designer paper pieces.
Adhere the designer paper pieces in place.
Pick out the open, stitched, star die that cuts out a star that is 2-5/8" wide from the Stitched Stars Dies. Put it on top of the Balmy Blue square on a platform on your cutting and embossing tool. Run through the tool.
Tip: You may have to press fairly firmly along the edges of the die to pop the cut out loose.
Pick out the filigree star die that cuts out a star that is 1-15/16" wide from the Stitched Stars Dies. Put it on top of the Blueberry Bushel foil square on a platform on your cutting and embossing tool. Run through the tool. Use the Take Your Pick Die Brush Tip and paper-piercing tool on the Take Your Pick to remove the pieces.
Use the Fine-Tip Glue Pen or Multipurpose Liquid Glue to adhere the Blueberry Bushel filigree foil star cut out to the center of the Balmy Blue solid star cut out.
Cut a 5-1/2" piece of Whisper White 5/8" Flax Ribbon.
Fold the ribbon in half. Use Tear & Tape Adhesive to adhere the folded ribbon to the back of the Balmy Blue star cut out so the ribbon sticks out to the lower left side.
Remove the protective backing from the Tear & Tape and add more adhesive to the back of the Balmy Blue star cut out. Adhere the star to the center of the large rectangle of designer paper on the card front.
Trim the ends of the ribbon into sharp angles.
Use the mini spatula on the Take Your Pick to carefully peel up a large, clear dot from the sheet of Frosted & Clear Epoxy Droplets making sure that you get the adhesive backing as well. Adhere it to the center of the foil star.
