S oft and pretty thank you card using Stampin' Up! products, including the new Stampin' Blends Markers.
Project Recipe
Cut cardstock, designer paper, and vellum pieces to the following sizes using a Stampin' Trimmer:
- card from Pool Party Cardstock at 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" and scored at 4-1/4"
- 4" x 5-1/4" of tiny blue flowers on white background design from Whole Lot of Lovely Designer Series Paper
- 2-1/2" x 3-7/8" from Vellum Cardstock
- 1" x 5-1/2" from Pool Party Cardstock
- 2" square from Pool Party Cardstock
Adhere the piece of Whole Lot of Lovely Designer Series Paper to the front of the Pool Party card.
Rub the Embossing Buddy all over the piece of vellum.
Mount the "thank you" stamp from the Color Me Happy Set on Block I. Ink it up with the VersaMark Pad. Stamp it in the center of the vellum.
Sprinkle on Silver Stampin' Emboss Powder. Tap off excess powder and return it to the container to use again another time.
Heat the powder with the Heat Tool until it is completely melted (smooth and shiny). Be sure to move the Heat Tool around or you can burn the vellum.
Use the Light Pool Party Stampin' Blend Marker to color in the letters of the word "thank." This is a very light color and the difference will be very subtle.
Use the Dark Pool Party Stampin' Blend Marker to color in the shadows of the letters of the word "thank" and the centers of the tear drop shapes. This is a very light color and the difference will be very subtle.
Put a Mini Glue Dot on the back of the vellum in the center of the "t" and the base of the "k" in the word "thank."
Adhere the vellum to the center of the card front using just the Mini Glue Dots.
Pick out the long, filigree strip thinlit from the Flourish Thinlits. Place the long strip of Pool Party Cardstock on the Precision Base Plate on top of the Platform on the Big Shot. Place the long, filigree strip thinlit on top. Place a Cutting Pad on top and run through the Big Shot a couple of times. Use the Die Brush to remove the pieces.
Place the filigree strip 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 filigree strip cut out. Flip the filigree strip cut out over and adhere it to the card front along the top edge of the vellum.
Pick out the smaller filigree flower thinlit from the Flourish Thinlits. Place the Pool Party square on the Precision Base Plate on top of the Platform on the Big Shot. Place the filigree flower framelit on top. Place a Cutting Pad on top and run through the Big Shot a couple of times. Use the Die Brush to remove the pieces.
Cut a 6" piece of Silver Mini Sequin Trim.
Fold the sequin trim in half. Lay the sequin trim on the card front so the folded end is on top of the filigree strip on the left corner of the vellum.
Adhere a Stampin' Dimensional to the center of the back of the filigree flower. Peel off the protective backing and adhere the flower to the card front so it holds the sequin trim in place.
Pick out a large, light colored Dapper Denim circle from the Glitter Enamel Dots. Adhere it to the center of the filigree flower.
