A stained glass Ruby Heart card for my husband using the Friends For Life Dies from Stampin' Up!

Ruby Heart Anniversary card

Today I am sharing the card made for my husband – we are celebrating our ruby wedding anniversary (40 years) today.

Colours used in this card are:

 

To recreate the ruby heart anniversary card, you will need:

Cherry Cobbler card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Silver Foil – 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Basic White card – 5¼” by 3½”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside
Scrap Basic White, Cherry Cobbler and Silver Foil

 

I began by making the heart. Using Washi Tape from my stash I taped together the outline and detailed heart dies, from the Friends For Life Dies. I then die cut 3 Cherry Cobbler hearts and 1 Silver Foil heart. I also die cut a solid heat using just the outline heart die.

Using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive I adhered the 3 detailed hearts to the solid heart. I carefully filled in each of the negative spaces in the heart with Fine Tip Glue and set it aside to dry and set.

Whilst the heart was drying – it took about an hour – I embossed the 5¼” by 3½” Basic White panel using the Timeworn Type Embossing Folder. I squirted some of the Silver Enamel Effects onto a Silicon Craft Mat and swiped a B block through it before rubbing it over the raised embossing. It just gives a little extra shimmer to the card. The whole piece was then glued to the Silver Foil layer.

A length of Sheer Silver Edged Ribbon was wrapped around the panel before it was adhered to the Cherry Cobbler card front.

When the heart was dry, I added the detailed Silver Foil heat on top and glued the whole heart to the front of the card.

The sentiment, from the Sweetly Scripted stamp set was stamped in Cherry Cobbler ink onto scrap Basic White card. I fussy cut the sentiment out and added it straddling the heart with a small piece of Foam Adhesive Strip to either end and a Mini Glue Dot in the middle.

A scary Halloween card made using the Sweetest Star stamp set and the Sweetest Star Punch for the Stamping Dreams Blog Hop

A Scary Boo card – Stamping Dreams Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Stamping Dreams Blog Hop. Our theme this month is ‘Ghosts and Goblins’ which is always a bit of a challenge for me as Halloween is not a big deal in the UK so I don’t have any Halloween stamp set. After a bit of thought I settled on using the Sweetest Star stamp set to make my card.

Colours used in this card are:

 

To recreate the scary boo card, you will need:

Peach Pie card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Old Olive card – 5¼” by 1¾”
Basic White card – 4” by 3¼”
Gorgeous Grape card – 3⅞” by 3⅛”
Basic White card – 3¾” by 3”
Old Olive card – 3” by 2½”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside
Scrap Gorgeous Grape and Basic Black card

 

The ‘gingerbread’ stamp from the Sweetest Star stamp set was stamped all over the Peach Pie card front with Peach Pie ink. I flagged the end of the strip of Old Olive card and added it to the card front with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

Using the So Swirly Embossing Folder I embossed the 3¾” by 3” piece of Basic White card. I swiped the Peach Pie ink pad over the debossed side to add colour to the panel before adhering it to the Gorgeous Grape panel and then to the 4” by 3¼” piece of Basic White card. This was then glued to the card front.

I stamped the ‘gingerbread’ image with Versamark ink onto the piece of Old Olive card, covered it with White Embossing Powder before setting it with Heat Tool. The image was then punched out using the Sweetest Star Punch. Using a Blending Brush, I added Old Olive ink to the edges of the punched-out image before adding the image to the card front on Dimensionals.

From scrap Gorgeous Grape and Basic Black card, I die the letters BOO. I glued the Gorgeous Grape letters onto the Basic Black letters, slightly off set to give a shadow. The word was then added to the card front.
