To recreate the painted trees card, you will need:

Garden Green card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Basic Beige card – 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Basic White card- 5¼” by 3½”

Using the Cut & Emboss Machine and the Speciality Plate I embossed the 5¼” by 3½” panel of Basic White card.

I lightly rubbed Garden Green ink over the embossed trees with a Sponge Dauber. A light hand is the way to go.

I stamped the small snowflake from the Snowy Wonder stamp set randomly around the trees in Pool Party ink. I then glued the embossed panel to the Basic Beige layer.

A length of Sheer Silver Edged Ribbon was wrapped around the panel and secured on the back with Sellotape. The whole panel was then mounted onto the Garden Green card front on Dimensionals.

The sentiment, from the Snowy Wonder stamp set was stamped in Garden Green ink onto scrap Basic White card. I punched the sentiment out using a 1½” Circle Punch and added a 1 ¾” circle punched from scrap Garden Green card. The 2 circles were then glued together and added to the card front.

The partial die cutting technique used with the Fluffiest Friends stamp set from Stampin' Up! to make a card - Technique Tuesday Blog Hop

Honey Bear card – Technique Tuesday Blog Hop

Posted on October 1, 2024September 26, 2024 by Mo Rootes

Hello and welcome to the Tuesday Technique Blog Hop where we are sharing projects made using partial die cutting. I have used the adorable Fluffiest Friends stamp set and Dies to make my card.

Colours in this card are:

To recreate the honey bear card, you will need:

Thick Basic White card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Thoughtful Journey dsp – 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Basic White card – 5⅛” by 3⅜”
Scrap Mossy Meadow card

Using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive I glued the panel of Thoughtful Journey dsp to the front of the Thick Basic White card front.

The adorable bear was stamped onto the 5⅛” by 3⅜” piece of Basic White card using Early Espresso ink. I placed the die over the image holding it in place with a little washi tape from my stash to prevent it moving.

I placed the top cutting plate from my Cut & Emboss Machine at the top of the image, level and about half-way down the honey jar and ran it through the Cut & Emboss Machine. Doing it this way only cuts the top half of the image.

slid a circle die from the Stylish Shapes Dies behind the die cut part of the image and die cut it.

The bear was coloured using the following Blends Pens – Crumb Cake, Pecan Pie, Pretty Peacock and Wild Wheat. The coloured panel was then added to the card front on Dimensionals.

From scrap Mossy Meadow card I die cut some grass and leaves and added them to the card front.

The sentiment, from the Simply Said stamp set was stamped in Versamark ink onto scrap Mossy Meadow card, covered it with White Embossing Powder and set it using my Heat Tool. I trimmed it down and added it to the card front and a trio of 2023 – 2025 In Color Dots completed the card.
