I have been involved in a boot camp with other Stampin' Up! Demonstrators. This week one of our tasks were to make some cards just for the fun of it and send to three of our friends. Here is two of the three cards.
This card uses the Stampin' Up! In Colour, Concord Crush, Watercolour Paper and Basic Grey Card Stock. Stamp the image in Black Stazon (I used Stampin' Up! "The Nicest Things" Clear Mount Stamp Set), onto watercolour paper and then watercolour. Cut your basic grey and watercolour paper, I have allowed about 0.5cm around the side and top and bottom. Using your Eyelet Board punch, punch the bottom of the basic grey c/stock and watercolour paper then mount. The sentiment is also from the Nicest Things set, stamped in Concord Crush, adhere to card and apply some of the new Concord Crush 1/2" Stitched Poly Ribbon (tied a knot).
This cards uses Concord Crush as a base card stock colour, with Wild Wasabi mount (9.5cm x 13cm). A further piece of Concord Crush (10.5cm x 5cm) and Wild Wasabi (9.5cm x 4.5cm). Once piece of Whisper White (13cm x 6.5cm). Use your jumbo Friendly Words wheel and Basic Black stamp pad on the Whisper White C/Stock and place over the top of your other card stock so that your white strip is on top. Using the Two Step Extra Large Bird Punch, punch out two birds on Concord Crush C/Stock. Using a sponge dauber, apply a bit of concord crush stamp pad ink to the edges of the bird and apply to your card, along with some Basic Pearls for eyes. Once again, a strip of Concord Crush 1/2" Stitched Poly Ribbon tied a knot.
I hope my friends like them!!!
The other thing I made was a couple of cards and a note holder, which we also did at my last workshop. I gave these to my husband's boss, for absolutely no reason at all.
Hope you like them. Feel free to leave any comments.
