A beautiful card featuring a Spring garden and made using the My Meadow stamp set

My Meadow in Spring

Here  is a card featuring My Meadow in Spring and made for a team challenge a while ago. I love this colour combo, the pop of Poppy Parade really lifts the other more muted colours.

To recreate the My Meadow in Spring card you will need:

Pear Pizzazz card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Poppy Parade – 4 ¼” by 3”
Whisper White – 4 ¼” by 3”
Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝”

I die cut the largest Stitched So Sweetly scalloped rectangle from the small Whisper White layer. I stamped the ground in Pear Pizzazz ink and added the trees using Gray Granite ink onto the die cut panel.

The blossom was stamped in Blushing Bride ink and the leaves on the larger tree in Pear Pizzazz ink.

The base of the wheelbarrow was stamped in Gray Granite ink and the bucket part added in So Saffron ink. I added the leaves and pants in Pear Pizzazz and Poppy Parade inks.

Beautiful Spring colours for March classes Tulip themed cards using Stampin' Up! products

Timeless Tulips Class Projects

We had Tulips classes last week using the lovely Timeless Tulips stamp set and the Tulip Builder Punch to make 3 cards one of which was a sweet box card. Every card in this month’s classes also used an embossing folder by special request.

To recreate the Tulips class box card you will need:

Thick Whisper White – 9” by 8¼” scored on the long side @ 2⅛”, 4¼”, 6⅜”, & 8½”
Scored on the Short side – @ 2¾” – then place on the trimmer with the 2¾” score on the left and cut off at 6” – Take the off cut and cut down to get 2 pieces with a small tab at each end.
Flirty Flamingo 5⅞” by 2” x 2
Flirty Flamingo 2⅝” by 2” x 3
Whisper White W 5½” by 1⅞” x 2
Whisper White W 2½” by 1⅞” x 3
Old Olive ¼” strips x 6 cut in half.
Scrap Whisper White
Whisper White Envelope

With the smaller 4 rectangles towards you and the thinnest rectangle to the right we cut away the smallest rectangle. We then cut up each of the scorelines to the horizontal score line to form the flaps of the box card.

We took the off cut strips and adhered then inside the box to serve as dividers.

The long thin Whisper White panels were adhered to the Long Flirty Flaming panel and added to the front and back of the back panel of the box.

We embossed the 3 small Whisper White panels using the Parisian Flourish embossing folder, added them to the small Flirty Flamingo panels then to the flaps of the box.

The ladies stamped a row of tulips in 4 colours onto scrap Whisper White card stock – 8 tulips in all and punched them out using the Tulip Builder Punch. We attached the Old Olive ‘stems’ with Mini Glue Dots. They were then added to the dividers and the back of the box with Mini Glue Dots

To recreate the muti-coloured Tulip card you will need;

Real Red –8 ¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Old Olive 5⅜” by 3¾”
Whisper White 5¼” by 3⅝”
Whisper White 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Old Olive 5⅜”by 2⅛”
Whisper White 5⅜” by 2
Scrap Whisper White
Whisper White Envelope

The smooth side of the Stone Embossing folder was inked up using Old Olive ink and ran it through the Big Shot using the new blue embossing plate. I love the effect this gives. The embossed layer was glued to the Old Olive panel with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive, then to the Real Red card front using the same adhesive.

We stamped a flower in each of the four colours and punched them out. The flowers were then curled from side to side using the bone folder to give a bit of dimension.

The stems and leaves were stamped on the long thin Whisper White panel and the flowers added with a dimensional. The stamped panel was added to a layer of Old Olive, then to the card front with the liquid adhesive.

To recreate the Flirty Flowers card you will need:

Flirty Flamingo –8 ¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Real Red 5½” by 3¾”
Whisper White 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Old Olive 4⅛”by 2½”
Whisper White 4” by 2⅜”
Whisper White 4” by 2 ½” for punching
Whisper White Envelope

We inked up the flowers with Flirty Flamingo ink then used a sponge dauber to add Real Red ink around the base of each flower before stamping the flower onto scrap Whisper White card stock and punching it out. The flowers were shaped in the same way as for the previous card.

The background was embossed using the Scripty Embossing Folder and one of the Whisper White panels. This was adhered to the Real Red panel, then to the Flirty Flamingo card base.

The stems and leaves were stamped on the small Whisper White panel in Old Olive ink and the flowers added as before on a dimensional.
