The card I am sharing today was made to celebrate the anniversary of some of my dearest friends. I used the beautiful Hues of Happiness designer Series Paper and the Pretty Flowers Embossing Folder to make my happiness anniversary card.

The colours used in this project are:

To recreate the happiness anniversary card, you will need:

Pool Party card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored and folded at 4⅛”
Night of Navy card – 5⅜ by 3⅝”
Basic White card – 5¼” by 3½”
Pool Party card – 5⅛” by 1 ¾”
Hues of Happiness dsp – 5⅛” by 1”
Pool Party card – 5⅛” by ⅜”
Basic White card – 3” by ¾”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” for the inside

I ran the 2 panels of Pool Party card through the Stampin’ Cut and Emboss Machine with the Pretty Flowers Embossing Folder. These were glued, using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive to the 5¼” by 3½” panel of Basic White card.

The strip of Hues of Happiness dsp was added with the same liquid glue between the embossed panels. The whole piece was then added to th Night of Navy card panel.

A length of Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon was wrapped around the whole panel and secured on the back using Sellotape and the panel was mounted onto the Pool Party card base on Dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment, from the One happy Family stamp set in Night of Navy ink onto the strip of Basic White card and die cut it out using the Stylish Shapes Dies. I added it over the ribbon with liquid glue.

In Color Smiles card for the Crafty Challenge Blog Hop

Posted on May 30, 2022May 20, 2022 by Mo Rootes

Hello and welcome to the Crafty Challenge Blog Hop where we are showcasing the new 2022 – 2024 In-colors. I have made a pretty in-color smiles card using the Sending Smiles stamp set,

Colours used in this project are:

To Recreate the in-color smiles card, you will need:

Sweet Sorbet card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored and folded at 4⅛”
Starry Sky card – 5⅝” by 3⅞”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” x 2 – one for the inside
Basic White card – 3¾” by 1½”

Using my Grid Paper and a ruler I measured down 1¼” and using a pencil drew a line across one of the larger panels of Basic White card. I drew another line about 1 ½” lower. This helped me to arrange my stamping.

I began by stamping the leafy sprig in Parakeet Party above and below the lines. The Sweet Sorbet flower was stamped next.

The smaller flower in Tahitian Tide ink was used to fill in some of the gaps and the smaller plume added in Orchid Oasis.

I used Starry Sky ink to add centres to all the flowers. The decorated panel was then glued to the Starry Sky layer using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive and the whole panel was added to the Sweet Sorbet card base using the same glue. I used a clean rubber to erase the pencil lines.

The larger part of the sentiment was stamped in Starry Sky ink and the smaller sentiment added using Sweet Sorbet………I messed this up and ended up re-stamping it onto scarp Basic white and die cutting it out using one of the labels from the co-ordinating Sending Dies. I added this over the badly stamped words using liquid adhesive. This piece was then mounted onto the card front on Dimensionals.
