Sunburst Corner

Dear Crafters,

Today I shane another of the projects that we did last week during my Techniques class, the Sunburst Technique.

I once again focused on using the Wildflower Fields DSP and the coordinating Flowering Fields stamp set.

The Wink of Stella pen was also used on the stamped flower, although it is very hard to see in the photo, but it is so shiny with a bit of sparkle!

I also did some paper piercing along the edges of sun rays for some added detail.

I love this technique, it just shows off our gorgeous Designer Series Papers so well!

Here’s another variation using the very pretty, Love Blossoms DSP!

Calendar Card

Dear Crafters,

Today I share with you one of the projects we made at my Techniques class last week.

These mini tab calendars prove popular every year, and my class attendees love making projects with them.

We have made an easel card and added the calendar, so the recipient can have it standing on their desk, wardrobe, where ever they place it for the whole year to admire.

We used the Flowering Fields stamp set which we coloured with Stampin’ Write Markers. The background is the Designer Series Paper, Wildflower Fields which coordinates with this stamp set.

I love that we have something quite Australian in the range.

What do you think of this project? My class ladies loved it!

An here is another card using the same stamp set and DSP. I love making Random Act of Kindness cards and popping them in the post to unsuspecting recipients xx

Birthday, Kids Cards, Masculine, Stampin' Up!

Make a wish

Dear Crafters,

Today I share a very quick and easy card to create, using some DSP, banners, sentiment, punch and twine!

I love this dandelion designer paper which you can earn for FREE with any $90 order. It is the Wildflower Fields Designer Series Paper available during Saleabration 2016. 12 sheets of 12×12 double sided designs.

The sentiment is from the Perfect Pennants stamp set and is perfect with this paper. As kids we always grabbed those dandelions and blew them to make a wish, didn’t you?! Maybe you still do!!!!

Anyway, the sentiment was stamped and cut out using the Note Tag Punch. The banners were made using the Banner Triple Punch and layered behind the tag. Some gorgeous two-tone baker’s twine was added.

I love the simplicity of this style of card. What do you think?

Card Box using Diagonal Plate

Dear Crafters,

Back on the 18th January, I shared a card box/envelope and today I share another one that is slightly bigger but uses a full 12″ x 12″ sheet of card stock.

This envelope holds at least 6 A5 cards and 6 C6 envelopes. It is really just a thicker envelope that I made using the diagonal plate with the Simply Scored.

Card Box Wildflower Fields DSP #stampinup

I started with an 12″ x 12″piece of card stock and scored on the diagonal plate at 4″ and 6″. Tip: Score from the ruler along the top and the sides so you don’t have to turn your card stock.

Turn the card stock 90 degrees and score both sides diagonally at 5″ and 7″.

Cut out the small triangles as shown below

Cut up the scorelines as shown below

Now add your Designer Series Paper (Wildflower Fields DSP) and your Tear and Tape adhesive as shown

Also add another piece of DSP to the back of the box

I have decorated the front using a flower I made with the Bow Builder Punch

I adhered the flower to the top flap of the envelope/box as the weight will hold it closed.

What do you think of my gift idea?

It is such a beautiful way to package up your handmade cards as a gift for your loved ones.

Wildflower Fields Card Box

Dear Crafters,

Today I share a gift idea in the way of a large envelope/card box to place some cards and envelopes in to give as a lovely gift to someone.

I have used Blackberry Bliss, this stunning rich colour coordinates with the Wildflower Fields Designer Series Paper that you can choose for free with any $90 order during Saleabration.

Card Envelope Project Wildflower Fields DSP #stampinup

This envelope can hold 6 A5 cards and C6 envelopes. It is really just a thicker envelope that I made using the diagonal plate with the Simply Scored.

I started with an 11″ x 11″piece of cardstock and scored on the diagonal plate at 3-1/2″ and 5-1/2″. Tip: Score from the ruler along the top and the sides so you don’t have to turn your card stock.

Turn the card stock 90 degrees and score both sides diagonally at 4-1/2″ an 6-1/2″.

Card Envelope Project Wildflower Fields DSP #stampinup

I have used a retired brad as the closer on this one, the flap folds down and underneath it to hold it closed.

I have even put a piece of DSP on the back to dress it up and show off this gorgeous DSP!

Isn’t it a lovely way to give some cards to someone as a gift?!!!

And here are the matching cards I made to go inside with the Flowering Fields stamp set
