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

Ruby Heart Anniversary card

Posted on by

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.

I die cut a stitched circle from the Stylish Shapes Dies and glued the coloured flower onto it. The spare leaves were then tucked around the flower. I added the circle to the card front on Dimensionals.

The sentiment from the Ringed with Nature stamp set was stamped in Versamark ink onto scrap Soft Suede card. I then covered the stamped sentiment with White Embossing Powder and heat set it using my Heat Tool. I trimmed the cardstock down and flagged the ends with scissors before adding it to the card front.

A trio of Glossy Dots completed the card.

I hope you like it. Please continue around the hop to see what my crafty friends have done with the sketch.

Ornate Poppy

Posted on by

Here is a sweet Ornate Poppy card I made to celebrate the wedding anniversary of my friends Lyndsay and Richard. Lyndsay should recognise the poppy as I made a number of them when I was last with her. They were inspired by a lovely card made by  Su Mohr which I found on Pinterest.

To recreate the Ornate Poppy card you will need:

Petal Pink card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Early Espresso – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside
Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – for the inside
Early Espresso – 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Scrap Whisper White, Early Espresso & Mossy Meadow

I ran the smaller Early Espresso layer through the Big Shot inside the Ornate Floral Embossing Powder. This folder is gorgeous and gives so much texture to the card.

I wrapped a piece of the Petal Pink Organdie Stripped Ribbon around the embossed panel and adhered it on the back with Sellotape. This panel was glued to the Petal Pink card base using Snail Adhesive.

I took the ‘smudge’ stamp, from the Painted Poppies stamp set inked it up with Flirty Flamingo ink and stamped it randomly a scrap piece of Whisper White. This step was repeated using So Saffron ink and Petal Pink ink until the whole layer was covered in ink.

Using the Poppy Moments dies I die cut the detailed flower from the stamped panel. I die cut the same image and the full blank flower from Whisper White card stock. I mounted the patterned die cut flower outline onto the White flower blank with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive and carefully fitted in the white die cut pieces. Doesn’t the flower look fab……..I love bit of paper piecing. I die cut a flower centre from scrap Early Espresso card and added it to the centre of the flower using the liquid glue.

I punched a leaf from scrap Mossy Meadow card using the Leaf  Punch – so sad this is retiring, and added it to the back of the poppy using Snail Adhesive. The poppy was added over the ribbon on Dimensionals.

The sentiment from the Beautiful Bouquet stamp set, another set I will miss, was stamped using Early Espresso ink, die cut using one of the Stitched So Sweetly dies. I added it to the card front with Snail Adhesive. To complete the card I added a scattering of Iridescent Sequins, yet another thing I will really miss…..

I hope Lyndsay and Richard like the card.
