Petal Park Congratulations Card - InspireINK Blog Hop - Celebrate

 Hi Everyone,




The theme this month is 'Celebrate' so I have made a Congratulations card using the lovely Petal Park stamp set and Punch and the Dandy Designs designer series papers.  I was feeling in a cheerful mood so I've gone with nice bright colours.


Materials

1 piece of thick basic white card 5 7/8" x 8 1/4"
1 piece of dsp 3 7/8" x 5 5/8", scrap for the sentiment
1 piece of basic white card 3 5/8" x 5 3/8", scraps for the flowers and sentiment
Petal Park stamp set
Petal Park Builder Punch
Best Family Ever stamp set
Basic Pearls
Trimmer
Simply Scored
Bone Folder
Multipurpose adhesive
Dimensionals
Polished Pink ink
Pear Pizzazz ink

Instructions

On the long side score at 4 1/8" and fold and burnish to make the card base.

Adhere the dsp layer to the card front.

Stamp the large leaf outline image in the centre of the piece of basic white and then fill in the outline.  Stamp the floral outline in between the leaves and then stamp the fill. 

Stamp the floral image again on some scrap and punch out, stamp and punch out two additional small flowers. Scrumple these flowers to give them some dimension and add them over the top of the stamped flowers and tuck the two spare ones around the main flower.

Stamp some of the dots around the image as you can see in the photo.

Add this stamped layer to the card front and add some pearls to the centre of all of the flowers.

Stamp a sentiment on a scrap of white and then layer it up on a scrap of the dsp, add to the card front using dimensionals.

Country Gingham Petal Park Birthday Card - Stamp N Hop

 Hi Everyone,







For the Stamp 'N' Hop Blog Hop this month I have chosen to use the Country Gingham dsp with the beautiful Petal Park and Best Family Ever stamp sets from the new Mini Catalogue. I love the gingham (anyone who knows me knows that haha), I love the subtle colours which can be teamed up with all sorts of stamp sets and dies and punches. The new Petal Park stamp set comes with a punch too and is a quick and easy way to add some flowers to your project.


Materials

1 piece of mint macaron card stock 5 7/8" x 8 1/4", scrap for the sentiment
2 pieces of basic white card stock 3 7/8" x 5 5/8", scraps for the sentiment and flowers
1 piece of dsp 3 5/8" x 5 3/8"
Mint macaron ink
Fresh Freesia ink
So Saffron ink
Pear Pizzazz ink
Petal Park stamp set
Petal Park Builder Punch
Hearts Punch Pack
Best Family Ever stamp set
Adhesive Backed Milky Dots
Trimmer
Simply Scored
Bone Folder
Multipurpose Adhesive
Dimensionals

Instructions

On the long side score the mint macaron card at 4 1/8" and fold and burnish to make the card base.

Add one of the basic white mats to the card front and then add the dsp layer.

Stamp a sentiment on the remaining piece of basic white and adhere to the inside of the card.



Stamp some flowers and leaves on some scrap basic white and punch out, crumple the flowers a little bit to give them some definition and dimension.

Stamp a sentiment on a scrap and punch out with the straight edged heart and then punch out the scalloped one in the mint macaron and layer the two together.

Add the sentiment using dimensionals and add some of the smallest flowers and a leaf. Then arrange the remaining flowers and leaves on the card front adding some on dimensionals.  I also added some to the inside of the card.



Add the Milky Dots to the flower centres and the card is complete.

Regency Park Pop Up Birthday Card - Stamping With Friends Blog Hop

 Hi Everyone,






The theme is 'Pop Up' and I've brought out the lovely Regency Park designer series papers again, I just love them. I've teamed them with the Framed Florets dies and stamp set for a really pretty card for my friend.

Materials

1 piece of night of navy card stock 5 7/8" x 8 1/4", scraps for die cuts
3 pieces of dsp 3 7/8" x 5 5/8", scraps to die cut flowers and leaves
1 piece of basic white card 3" x 4 1/4", scraps for the stamping and die cuts
Scraps of shaded spruce for the leaves
Bough Punch
Petal Park stamp set
Petal Park Builder Punch
Framed Florets dies
Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine
Paper snips
Night of navy ink
Balmy blue ink
Sweet sorbet ink
Petal pink ink
Fine sparkle adhesive backed gems
Trimmer
Simply scored
Bone Folder
Multipurpose adhesive
Stampin dimensionals

Instructions

On the long side score the night of navy card at 4 1/8" and fold and burnish to make the card base.

Adhere the dsp layers to the front and both sections of the inside.

On the long side score the basic white at 1/4", 1 1/4", 2 1/4", 3 1/4" fold and burnish, this forms the stand for the pop up to be adhered to.

Run some adhesive along the outside of the 1/4" tab, fold down on the 1 1/4" tab and bring the other end over to meet it to form a tube. Adhere this in place in the centre of the card, attaching to both sections of the inside of the card.


Die cut three of the framed ovals in basic white and 3 in night of navy so that you can use the white centres inside the navy frames, set the others aside for another card.

Stamp sentiments on all three white ovals using night of navy ink.

Stamp some flowers using the darker colour for the outline and then the paler colours for the infill. Punch these flowers out. Punch some leaves using the Bough Punch and the Petal Park  Builder Punch.


Fussy cut some additional flowers and leaves from the dsp for decorating the ovals.

Arrange the stamped flowers and punched out leaves on the tube, add some with adhesive and the smaller ones with mini dimensionals to give some depth to the display.

Adhere one navy oval behind the floral display and one on the base of the card below the display and then add the white ovals inside them.  Decorate with some of the fussy cut items.

Add the remaining oval to the front of the card with the remaining sentiment oval and decorate with some of the flowers and add some gems.



The finished card can be displayed standing as normal or open to show off the pop up flowers on the side.

Please pop over and see what everyone else has been making, I'm sure that you will be inspired, I always am.
