Project Recipe
Cut cardstock and designer paper pieces to the following sizes using a Paper Trimmer:
- 2-1/2" square from Whisper White Cardstock
- 1" x 3" from Whisper White Cardstock
- 3/4" x 3" of pink and white dots on shiny red background design from From My Heart Specialty Designer Series Paper
- 1-1/4" x 2" of pink and white dots on shiny red background design from From My Heart Specialty Designer Series Paper
Fill the Heart Foil Tins with treats.
Tip: You can actually bake a cupcake or brownie in the tin base!
Place the filled tin on a flat surface and secure the lid in place by pressing down lightly.
Pick out a Flirty Flamingo doily from the Heart Doilies. Adhere it to the top of the lid in the center using SNAIL Adhesive.
Cut an 18" piece of Real Red 3/8" Double-Stitched Satin Ribbon.
Wrap the ribbon around the filled, closed tin just above center. Tie in place using a knot. Trim the ends.
Tip: You can help hold the ribbon in place using a small piece of washi tape on the bottom of the tin if you wish.
As you are ready to stamp using the Dino Days Photopolymer Set, put the cardstock on the Stampin’ Pierce Mat. Using the mat will help you get a cleaner image each time you stamp.
Mount the t-rex image from the Dino Days Set on Block D. Ink it up with the Real Red Ink Pad. Stamp it in the center of the white square.
Pick out the t-rex die from the Dino Dies. Put it on top of the stamped t-rex image on a platform on your cutting and embossing tool so the t-rex image is centered. Run through the tool.
Pick out the curve of spikes die from the Dino Dies. Put it on top of the 1-1/4" x 2" piece of From My Heart Designer Paper on a platform on your cutting and embossing tool. Run through the tool.
Put SNAIL along the back of the t-rex cut out along his back and tail curve. Adhere the spikes cut out to the back of the t-rex cut out so they will show.
Unlock the Banner Triple Punch. Slide one short edge of the 1" x 3" white strip into the punch as far as it will go. Punch. Leave the punch unlocked.
Mount the “You’re Rawrsome!” sentiment from the Dino Days Set on Block B. Ink it up with the Real Red Ink Pad. Stamp on the punched strip of Whisper White near the notch with the notch on the right side.
Slide one short edge of the 3/4" x 3" designer paper strip into the unlocked Banner Triple Punch as far as it will go. Punch.
Adhere the punched strip of designer paper to the back of the punched and stamped strip of white cardstock so the designer paper is centered in the notch and sticks out about a 1/2".
Use Paper Snips to trim off excess cardstock and designer paper on the left end of the matted sentiment strip so there is only about 1/2" of cardstock to the left of the left edge of the sentiment.
Adhere the t-rex cut out to the left end of the matted sentiment strip so his right arm is at the top of the sentiment strip.
Put Stampin' Dimensionals on the back of the dinosaur's head and body and on the sentiment strip near the dinosaur. Peel off the protective backings and stack more Dimensionals on top of the previously placed ones. Remove the protective backings and adhere the dinosaur and sentiment strip to the top of the lid so the top of the sentiment strip is right under the bottom edge of the ribbon and the dinosaur's tail sticks off the left side of the lid and the sentiment strip sticks off the right side of the lid.
