P retty card using new Stampin' Up! products.
Project Recipe
Cut cardstock and designer paper pieces to the following sizes using a Paper Trimmer:
- card from Boho Blue Cardstock at 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" and scored at 4-1/4"
- 4" x 5-1/4" from Basic White Cardstock
- 2 pieces each 1-1/2" x 3-3/4" of lines of tiny feathery flowers on blue background design from Countryside Inn 12" x 12" Designer Series Paper, cut so the lines are horizontal on the horizontal rectangles
- 2-1/4" x 2-3/4" from Basic White Cardstock
- scrap from Boho Blue Cardstock
As you are ready to stamp using the Crafting With You Set, place the cardstock on the Stampin' Pierce Mat. Using the mat will help you get a cleaner image each time you stamp.
WITHOUT ADHERING, lay the two strips of Countryside Inn Designer Paper on the top of the vertical 4" x 5-1/4" white rectangle so they are evenly spaced from each other and the top, left, and right sides of the card as shown.
Mount the "you inspire me" or "with love" sentiment from the Crafting With You Set on Block B. Ink it up with the Boho Blue Ink Pad. Stamp it just below the bottom strip of designer paper on the left side. The left of the sentiment should be about 3/8" from the left side.
Now, adhere the strips of designer paper in place.
Adhere the stamped and layered white rectangle to the front of the Boho Blue card.
Mount the Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine image from the Crafting With You Set on Block D. Ink it up with the Boho Blue Ink Pad. Stamp it on the 2-1/4" x 2-3/4" white rectangle.
Pick out the matching, open Cut & Emboss Machine die from the Crafting With You Dies. Put it on top of the stamped image on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine so it is centered over the image. Run through the machine.
Use Stampin' Dimensionals to adhere the Cut & Emboss Machine cut out to the front of the card as shown so it is just overlaps the bottom of the bottom designer paper strip and is just to the right of the sentiment.
Pick out one of the sets of two small spools of thread dies from the Crafting With You Dies. Put it on top of the scrap of Boho Blue cardstock on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine so you'll cut out one spool. Run through the machine. Use the Take Your Pick to remove the pieces as needed.
Cut a 6" piece of the Boho Blue Jute Trim from the 2023-2025 In Color Jute Trim.
Carefully tease the end of the jute trim apart so you have three separate strands. Gently pull the three strands apart. Run the separate strands through your pinched fingers to straighten them out a bit.
Put a tiny piece of Tear & Tape Adhesive on the back of one side of the small spool cut out. Remove the protective backing.
Get one end of each of the three strands of jute lined up together. Adhere the ends to the Tear & Tape on the back of the spool cut out. Now, wrap the jute strands around the spool several times until you have about 2-1/2" of jute sticking out loose. Put a tiny piece of Tear & Tape Adhesive over the back of the jute wrapped spool to hold the strands in place. Use Paper Snips Scissors to trim off two of the strands so only 1 strand remains sticking out by about 2-1/2".
Use the Tear & Tape to adhere the wrapped spool to the front of the card so it overlaps the bottom corner of the Cut & Emboss Machine cut out as shown.
Squeeze a tiny drop of Multipurpose Liquid Glue onto the loose end of jute trim. Use it to adhere the loose end to the front of the card as shown so it is just under the stamped sentiment.
Use the mini spatula on the Take Your Pick to carefully peel up a large Boho Blue dot from the sheet of 2023-2025 In Color Dots making sure that you get the adhesive backing as well. Adhere it to the upper left corner of the card front as shown.
