Playful Valentine card

Posted on by

Today I am sharing the card I made my husband for Valentine’s Day using the Playful Alphabet dies, Window Sheet and strips of card. This card was inspired by a Youtube video by fellow demonstrator Angie of Stamping With Amore.

Colours used in today’s project are:

 To recreate the Playful Valentine card. You will need:

Thick Basic White card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Window Sheet – 4⅛” by 2¼”
Misty Moonlight – 4⅛” by ⅜”
Panels of Misty Moonlight, So Saffron, Pacific Point, Old Olive & Balmy Blue 2½” wide
Scrap Basic White

Taking the 2½” wide strips of card stock I cut them down into thin strips, wider at one end than the other.

I added strips of Tear & Tape Adhesive down the length of each strip and added them to the Window Sheet panel leaving a small gap between each strip. I trimmed off the excess using sharp scissors.

Dimensionals and Mini Dimensionals were then added to the Window Sheet behind the card stock strips, so they would be hidden and the whole panel adhered to the card front.

Taking the scrap Basic White and the Playful Alphabet Dies I cut out letters LOVE three times. The letters were then stacked on top of each other with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive before being added to the card front.

I inked the word YOU from the Well Said stamp set in Versamark ink and stamped it onto the long strip of Misty Moonlight. The sentiment was then covered with White Embossing Powder and heat setting it with my Heat Tool.

The baby wipe technique used to make a floral get well card

Beautiful Promenade/Baby wipe technique reprised

Posted on by

Here is another card made using the gorgeous Beautiful Promenade stamp set and the same handmade ink pad that I used for the blog hop earlier this week. I couldn’t help but try out another couple of things while the ink was still fresh.

To recreate the Beautiful Promenade card

Crumb Cake card base – 8½” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Gorgeous Grape 5½” by 3¾” – rounded upper left corner
Very Vanilla 5⅜” by 3⅝” x 2 – 1 for the inside and 1 for the outside – rounded upper left corners
Scrap Very Vanilla
Scrap Granny Apple Green

I made my own ink pad by folding a single baby wipe into a square and placing it in an empty clear mount stamp case. I took the Daffodil Delight re-inker and dropped about 12 – 15 drops randomly onto the baby wipe. I repeated this with the Poppy Parade re-inker and finally with Gorgeous Grape re-inker. The dots of ink should spread and merge together with no un-inked areas.

I stamped the outline of the flowers in Poppy Parade ink and Gorgeous Grape ink onto the scrap Very Vanilla cardstock.  I inked up the stripey inner portion of the flower on my homemade ink pad and stamped to fill in each flower. The flowers were then die cut using the Beautiful Layers dies and my Big Shot. Using the Leaf Punch I punched some leaves from the Granny Apple Green scrap cardstock.

The flowers were placed on one of the Very Vanilla panels and the leaves were tucked  behind the flowers with a dab of Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. The flowers were then added over the top on Dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Well Said stamp set in Gorgeous Grape ink onto the panel but messed it up and ended up stamping it on a scrap of Very Vanilla and gluing it over the top of the mess. Don’t you hate it when you do that!!!

The decorated panel was then added to the Gorgeous Grape panel with the Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive then glued to the Crumb Cake card base. I added a trio of the Glitter Enamel Dots to complete the card front.

I had an extra stamped and die cut flower which I cut in half and added one half to the inner Very Vanilla panel and the other half to the Very Vanilla envelope.

I really love this technique. Hope you like the card.

I have hardly used this gorgeous stamp set, I am so glad it is carrying over to the new Annual Catalogue. I wanted to try out the baby wipe technique and thought this set might work well with the technique.

I inked the outline flower stamp on my hand made ink pad and randomly stamped the image onto the Very Vanilla panel. I loved the effect of the multicolour flowers. The stamped layer was then added to the Gorgeous Grape panel with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

I wrapped the strip of Vellum around the stamped panel and adhered it on the back with Sellotape. The whole piece was then glued to the Poppy Parade card front.

I die cut the word ‘birthday’ 3 times from scrap Gorgeous Grape cardstock and adhered the words one on top of the other using Multipurpose liquid Adhesive, this gives great dimension to the word.

I swiped the  Embossing Buddy over the vellum then stamped the word ‘wishes’ in Poppy Parade ink covered it with Clear Embossing Powder and heat set it with my Heat Tool. The die cut ‘birthday’ was added on top with the Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I used a Mini Glue Dot tucked under the ‘birthday’ to hold the vellum layer down.

I love, love this card, hoping you like it as well.
