Project Recipe
Cut card stock and designer paper pieces to the following sizes using a Stampin' Trimmer:
- card from Whisper White Thick Card Stock at 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" and scored at 4-1/4"
- 4" x 5-1/4" from Basic Black Card Stock
- 3-7/8" x 5-1/8" of large flowers and bees design of paper from Inside the Lines Designer Series Paper
- 3-7/8" x 5-1/8" from Vellum Card Stock
- 1-1/2" x 2" from Basic Black Card Stock
Mount the large thank you sentiment from the So Very Much Set on Block E. Rub the Embossing Buddy across the Vellum Card Stock. Ink up the stamp with the VersaMark Pad. Stamp the sentiment on the right side of the vellum in the center.
Sprinkle on Gold Stampin' Emboss Powder. Tap off excess. If necessary, brush off excess spots of embossing powder. A fine paint brush works well. Return excess powder to the container.
Heat the embossing powder with the Heat Tool until it is completely melted and shiny.
Adhere three black and gold sequins from the Metallics Sequin Assortment randomly around the sentiment using Mini Glue Dots.
Place the small Basic Black rectangle on the Precision Base Plate on top of the Big Shot Platform. To make it easier to remove the card stock from the die, place a small piece of wax paper on top of the card stock. Then, place the bee Detailed Dragonfly Thinlit on top of the rectangle. Place another Cutting Pad on top and run through the Big Shot a couple of times. Use the Die Brush to remove the tiny pieces and pop the bee cut out loose from the Thinlit.
Paint the bee cut out with the Gold Wink of Stella Glitter Brush.
Cut a small piece from the edge of Stampin' Dimensionals using the Paper Snips. Adhere the bee cut out to the end of the "you" on the sentiment using the dimensional piece.
Flip the decorated, stamped vellum piece upside down. Put Mini Glue Dots behind the sequins, bee, and a couple of points on the sentiment. Squish the glue dots up a bit if needed.
Flip the vellum back over and adhere it on top of the piece of Inside the Lines Designer Series Paper.
Adhere the vellum/designer paper rectangle to the large Basic Black rectangle.
Cut a 5" piece of the gold ribbon from the 3/8" Metallic Ribbon Combo Pack. Lay the ribbon across the vellum/designer paper/black rectangle so it is about 1/2" in from the left side. Flip the rectangle over and fold the ends of the ribbons over. Adhere them in place with pieces of Tear & Tape Adhesive across the ends. Do not put adhesive under the ribbon on the front of the designer paper or you won't be able to tie on the extra piece of ribbon.
Cut a 4" piece of the gold ribbon from the 3/8" Metallic Ribbon Combo Pack. Slide one end under the ribbon already adhered to the card front. Tie the ribbon on using a half knot. Trim the ends.
Adhere the card front to the Whisper White Thick card.
