Super Special Saturday Pink and Main Tea Pot Cards

Recently I was introduced to Pink and Main stamps and dies by the owner of Inky Hot Mess in Geneva New York. I absolutely LOVE the high quality stamps and dies! I made this set of four tea cup cards and tea pot with the Pink and Main box card die and formed a box out of the die. I cut out Pink and Main Shades of Spring designer paper to form the tea pot to cover the box and added the celebrate die from the box card die set. I used the arch tag die set to cut out the front of the cards and adhered them to 4 inches x 3 inches white card bases. I stamped the Perfect Blend images with black memento ink and colored the images with Shin Hin alcohol markers. After coloring the images I die cut the images with the Perfect Blend die cuts. I love how the set of four cards came out and entering them in the Pink and Main Challenge 30 Anything Goes. What do you think of the project?

Fabulous Friday Heartfelt Creations Alumni Team Blog Hop

Hello! Welcome to the May 2018 Heartfelt Creations Alumni Team Blog Hop.

You should be coming here from Alissa Wells (https://willrunforstamps.blogspot.com/2018/05/together-we-have-it-all-heartfelt.html)

The hop begins at 8AM EST on May 25, 2018) and runs until 11:59PM EST (May 28, 2018) The winner of the hop will be announced on the Heartfelt Creations Blog and Facebook page on May 30, 2018.

This month I made this beautiful handmade butterfly after finally seeing the return of butterflies to the garden. I stamped the butterfly image with Black Memento ink so that I could hand color the butterfly image with alcohol markers. I used ShinHan alcohol ink markers in Leaf Green, Golden Yellow, Marigold, and Cerulean Blue to color the butterfly. After die cutting the butterfly I popped the wings and glued just the body part to the card. I cut a piece of gold fold paper 3 inches by 5 1/2 inches and a piece of the Heartfelt Creations Butterfly Dreams paper 2 3/4 inches by 5 1/2 inches and attached to the 4/14 inches by 5 1/2 inches card base. I used the Heartfelt Creations Best Wishes sentiment from the Heartfelt Creations Pampered Pooch set.

For this double layout I cut designer series paper 6 inches x 12 inches, 3 inches x 6 inches and 6 inches x 9 inches.

Tutorial Thursday Stampin Up Share What You Love One Sheet Wonder Note Cards and Card Box

This is my second set of one sheet wonder cards I made with the Stampin Up Share What You Love Bundle. I started with a one sheet wonder chart I located here https://www.mackenziemakes.com/one-sheet-wonder-card-set-painted-autumn-dsp/and made several rearrangements to fit the paper and stamp set. I lined most of the cards with card stock 14/ inch bigger than the template provided for the designer series paper.

I designed my own card box for this set of nine cards. The base of the box   is a piece of card stock 8 1/2 inches x 9 3/4 inches scored at 2 inches on all four sides. The tabs are cut and box base formed. The top is a piece of card stock 6 1/2 inches x 7 3/4 inches scored at 1 inch on all four sides. The tabs are cut and note card box top formed. I decorated the top with a piece of designer paper 5 1/2 inches x 4 1/4 inches with the sides decorated with 7/8 inch x 5 1/2 inches and 4 1/4 inches border strips.

This project included 14 cards from one sheet of 12 x 12 designer series paper and a purse from one sheet of 12 x 12 designer paper! Two sheets of 12 x 12 paper and 14  4 1/4 inches x 5 1/2 inches white card bases and colored card stock cut 1/4 inch larger than the designer series paper on the cards!

I used this one sheet wonder template to make the cards with some variations from the original posting layouts for the cards that I located at: https://www.craftsy.com/paper-crafts/article/one-sheet-wonder/

 

For the purse that holds the 14 cards and envelopes I started with a 12 inches x 12 inches designer series paper and adapted the tutorial for a  folded handbag found here: http://stampwithsilvey.blogspot.com.au/2012/08/mini-bag-tutorial.html

Using a scoring board and scoring tool measure 3 1/4 inches from the left edge and score down and repeat on the opposite edge. Turn the paper 90 degrees and measure for the left edge 5 inches and score down and repeat on the opposite edge. Valley fold on all the horizontal and vertical lines. Fold up to create the handbag gift bag! Added ribbon for handles.
