Hi Everyone,
Today I am hopping with the Stampin Dreams group and the theme was the new Mini Catalogue and Saleabration 2021. My two projects combine something from both, the Art Gallery stamp set and Floral Gallery dies from the Mini Catalogue and the Oh So Ombre dsp which is free in the Saleabration brochure with a qualifying purchase. I hope that you like it and you will pop along and see what everyone else has made too, there will be lots of inspiration for you. Just click on the link below.
Materials
(for the square card)
1 piece of thick whisper white 5 7/8" x 11 3/4"
1 piece of night of navy card stock 5 3/4" square
1 piece of Oh So Ombre dsp 5 1/2" square
Scraps of whisper white for stamping and die cuts
(for the 41/8" x 5 7/8" card)
1 piece of bermuda bay card stock 5 7/8" x 8 1/4"
1 piece of whisper white card 4" c 5 3/4"
1 piece of whisper white 3 7/8" x 5 5/8" (for the inside)
1 piece of Oh So Ombre dsp 3 3/4" x 5 5/8"
Scraps of whisper white for stamping and die cuts
(for both cards)
Ink to match the dsp, I have used Bermuda bay, coastal cabana, granny apple green, night of navy, old olive and pear pizzazz
Art Gallery stamp set
Floral Art dies
Stampin Cut and Emboss machine
Multipurpose adhesive
Dimensionals
Instructions
For both sizes, make the card base by scoring the largest piece at the half way point on the long side and fold and burnish.
Adhere the mat card layer and then the dsp layer to the card front.
The stamp set is two step stamping so you need to choose a lighter colour for the fuller flower and then a darker colour for the highlight stamp. It is really easy to line it up. I have used the granny apple green with the night of navy over the top for the square card and then the coastal cabana with the bermuda bay over the top for the other one.
I stamped the leaves in old olive for the bermuda bay version and I chose pear pizzazz for the granny apple green and I stamped sentiments in the darker colours too.
Then I ran them all through the die cutting machine to cut them out along with the large word die.
To finish them off, I adhered with leaves in place and then added the flower head on dimensionals to make it stand out. The sentiments are on mini dimensionals and the large word phrase is adhered with wet glue.
For my first play with this new set I am really impressed, I love it.
Now, please hop over to the next project for more inspiration.
