Horizon rural secene cards made using the Oceanfront and On The Horizon stamp sets by Stampin' Up! for March 2022 classes

Oceanfront & On The Horizon Classes

I am addicted to the Oceanfront and On the Horizon stamp sets and used them to make projects for this month’s classes.

Colours used in these projects are:

 

Field with a Fence card

Balmy Blue card – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Garden Green – 5½” by 3¾”
Basic White – 5¼” by 3½”
Basic White – 5½” by 3¾”
Scrap Basic White, Garden Green & Granny Apple Green

 

We punched a circle from a Post It Note and placed it near the top of the smaller panel of Basic White card. The sky was then stamped in Balmy Blue ink. The mask was removed and So Saffron ink added with a Dauber.

The grass was stamped in Granny Apple Green and the ground in Sahara Sand. We used the dotty image to add texture to the ground.

Using the Horizon Dies we cut out trees from scrap Garden Green. The grasses were cut from scrap Granny Apple Green card and the fence from scrap Basic White.

We added texture to the die cut grass using the grass image from the On The Horizon stamp set and Garden Green ink. The white die cut fence was stamped with the wood plank image.

The die cuts were then added to the stamped panel. The whole layer was added to the Garden Green panel with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive and then to the Balmy Blue card base on Dimensionals.

We stamped the back ground using the same images from the Oceanfront stamp set in the same way as the previous card but in 2nd generation ink.

The trees from the On the Horizon stamp set were stamped in Evening Evergreen ink. The same ink was used to add the grasses to the image.

The stamped panel was then mounted on the Evening Evergreen layer with liquid glue and then to the Granny Apple Green card front.

Sweet birthday card featuring ice lollies

Cool Treats Lollies for a 10 year olds party

I had a great time on Sunday running a craft session at a soon to be 10year old’s birthday party. The birthday girl, her friends and her younger sister were a pleasure to spend time with and they were so enthusiastic. I designed 2 projects using the Cool Treats Stamp set and the co-ordinating Frozen Treats Framelit dies for them to make.

Gorgeous card for a young girls birthday

The first was a card and we started by stamping one of the ice lolly images using Flirty Flamingo ink, So Saffron Ink, Peakaboo Peach ink and Lemon Lime Twist ink onto a piece of Whisper White cardstock. We added the lolly stick using Crumb Cake ink before die cutting the lollies using the Frozen Treats framelit dies. The girls did an amazing job and loved stamping.

Next we inserted 3 strips of cardstock 5⅞” by ¼” in Flirty Flamingo, Peakaboo Peach and So Saffron, into the Seaside Embossing Folder and ran it through the die cutting machine to get some cool texture. The girls loved doing this. We added the embossed strips to a panel of Whisper White cardstock 5⅜” by 3⅝” using Snail Adhesive and used the Grid Paper to help make sure they were straight. They stamped the sentiment from the Happy Birthday Gorgeous stamp set in Flirty Flamingo ink below the embossed strips.

Using Snail Adhesive they added a Whisper White circle, die cut ahead of time using the Stitched Shapes framelits to a scalloped circle, die cut ahead of time from Lemon Lime Twist cardstock using the Layering Circles framelits.  This piece was then added to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals on top of the embossed strips.

The 4 die cut ice lollies were then added to the Whisper White circle with either Snail Adhesive or Stampin’ Dimensionals. The girls then added some Iridescent Sequins using Mini Glue Dots and a Paper Piercer, they loved these. To finish we stamped another lolly and lolly stick onto a panel of Whisper White cardstock 5⅜” by 3⅝” for the inside and onto the front of a Whisper White Envelope.

For the second project we took a piece of Whisper white cardstock 8½” by 3½” and stamped a variety of ice lollies along one of the long sides in Flirty Flamingo, So saffron, Peakaboo Peach, Lemon Lime Twist and Pool Party ink, the girls even did a little 2 step stamping which they loved. To make the project go faster I had already stamped the lolly sticks along one of the 8½” sides using Crumb Cake ink and applied Tear & Tape to the back of the stamped side and along one of the 3½” sides.

Next they folded and burnished the base of the bag which I had scored and cut for them. I  started with a 3” by 3” piece of Whisper White cardstock and scoring at ½” on all 4 sides then cutting up the score lines to form 4 tabs. I had added Tear & Tape to the tabs ahead of time and the girls removed the backing and adhered the tabs to the outside of the base. They then removed the backing from the adhesive on the long side and adhered it to the base, starting from the middle of one of the sides and wrapping it around pressing it into place as they went. The backing was then removed from the remaining short edge and overlapped to seal the sides of the bag.

They curled 2 strips of Whisper White cardstock 8” by ½” using a Bone Folder before applying a Mini Glue Dot to both ends of each strip and adding them to the inside of the bag to form the handles. To finish off they decorated the outside with Iridescent Sequins which they stuck on with Mini Glue Dots.

They did so well and their cards and bags looked amazing and I just love the summery colours..
