Box of Pansies for the Share It Sunday Blog Hop

Hello and thank you for joining me for the Share It Sunday Blog Hop where we are sharing something we have been working on. I am sharing the sweet box of pansies I have made for my Mum’s birthday tomorrow. I used a Youtube video by Sally Stampers as my inspiration

Colours used in this project are:

 

To recreate the box of pansies, you will need:

Early Espresso card – 7” by 3” – scored on the long side at 1” and 3”
Early Espresso card – 7” by 4” – scored on the long side at 4” and 6”
Early Espresso card – 5” by ½” x 2 – scored at either end at ½”
Basic White 3 ½” by 3 ½”
Evening Evergreen card – ⅛” by 3” strips – about 10
In Good Taste dsp – 4” by 2”
In Good Taste dsp – 2” by 2”
In Good Taste dsp – 4” by 4”
Pansy Petals dsp – the sheet of leaves
Scrap Basic White

Placing the short end of the larger piece of Early Espresso card at the top of the Trimmer, score lines nearest the top. I cut at 2” down to the 2nd score line. This will leave a 4” by 4” piece which will be the back panel of the box and a side piece measuring 3” with a score line in the middle.

Fold and burnish the score lines on both the large Early Espresso panels. Adhere the panels together using the 1” tabs using a strong glue, I used Tear and Tape. This forms the box.

Fold and burnish the ½” tabs on the tin strip of Early Espresso card and attach these inside the box. I used Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive to do this so that I could manoeuvre them into position.

1st generation Polished Pink outline, 2nd generation Polished Pink solid image and Merry Merlot for the bearded part. 1st generation Fresh Freesia outline, 2nd generation Fresh Freesia solid image and Gorgeous Grape for the bearded part.

1st generation Bermuda Bay outline, 2nd generation Bermuda Bay solid image and Misty Moonlight for the bearded part.

The centres were stamped in Bumblebee ink. The flowers were then die cut using the Pansy Dies. The leaves were die cut from the Pansy Petals dsp.

Using liquid glue, I added the 3 large pansies to the back panel of the box making sure not to place them to high as I wanted the card to fit into a standard C6 envelope. I added some of the smaller flowers to the front panel using the same glue.

I added the ⅛” strips of Evening Evergreen card to the other small pansies and added them at different heights to the inside panels, snipping off the excess. I added the leaves with a dot of liquid glue. Taking care that the card when folded down will still fit within the envelope.

A pretty hydrangea themed card made for the Colour Combo blog hop

Coloured Hydrangea for the Colour Combo Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Colour Combo blog hop and this month we have been given colours that I would never have put together. I have used the gorgeous Hydrangea Haven stamp set to make my coloured Hydrangea card.

Colours used in this project are:

 To recreate the coloured hydrangea card, you will need:

Magenta Madness – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – Rounded upper right corner
Shaded Spruce – 5⅛” by 3⅜” – Rounded upper right corner
Basic White – 5” by 3¼” – Rounded upper right corner
Basic White – 5½” by 3¾” – Rounded upper right corner
Flirty Flamingo – 4⅛” by ½”

I mounted the stamp onto the plate of the Stamparatus and placed the smaller Basic White panel on the platform.

Using the Shaded Spruce Stampin’ Write Marker I inked up the stem and leaves of the flower. I stamped it down onto the Basic White panel. I repeated this step to get a darker impression.

I used the Magenta Madness Stampin’ Write Marker to ink up the flower head and again repeated the process to get a good impression. The infill stamp was inked up in Flirty Flamingo ink, I stamped it off onto scrap paper before stamping the colour over the flower head. I used the same 2nd generation Shaded Spruce ink to the leaves and stem using the infill stamp.

To complete the card, I added a trio of Artistry Blooms Sequins.

Although I would probably never have put these colours together, I actually really like this card.

Using the 2 largest images from the Hand-Penned stamp set I randomly stamped all over the large piece of Basic White using Evening Evergreen ink. I kept the images as close together as possible, turning them to get a good fit.

When the whole panel was stamped, I cut it into two panels each 5⅜” by 3⅝”, saving the off cuts which were used to decorate the inside panels of the cards.

I cut one of these pieces in half again and mounted both strips onto one of the larger Basic White panels with the liquid glue. I wrapped a length of Soft Succulent Open Weave Ribbon around the panel before adhering it to the Daffodil Delight card base.  Using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies I cut 2 labels, one from the small piece of Basic White and the other from the larger piece of Soft Succulent. The sentiment was stamped on the smaller label in Soft Succulent ink, the panels were the glued together and mounted on the card front on Dimensionals. I added a bow on a Mini Glue Dot.

Using one of the large images I stamped in Soft Succulent ink onto the Soft Succulent card base. The Basic White panel was added to the centre of the card front. The remaining stamped panel was added to the Evening Evergreen layer with liquid glue, then to the Basic White panel on the Soft Succulent card base. Using Polished Pink ink, I stamped the sentiment onto scrap Basic White card and trimmed it out with scissors. I added a scrap piece of Soft Succulent to the back of the sentiment and glued it to the card base.
