Hi there
I’ve finally got round to sorting photos of the projects we made at Stamp Camp earlier this year – better late than never. I’m going to spread them out over two posts – one now and one later this afternoon so be sure to check back later for part two.
First up we have a cute project featuring the Birthday Bonanza Suite from page 32-34 of the Mini Catalgoue.
I love the bright colours of this paper – Terracotta Tile, Grapefruit Grove, Mango Melody, Daffodil Delight, Coastal Cabana & Bermuda Bay. For this image we stamped the Toucan in Memento Black and coloured his bill with Daffodil Delight, Calypso Coral and Cajun Craze. The party hat was stamped with Coastal Cabana then die cut (I trimmed off the excess white) and a white Pompom was the finishing touch.
The inside has a cute pocket for a gift tag or a gift voucher and there is plenty of room to write a message on the left hand side.
The tag is one of the dies included in the Bonanza Dies. The parcels and both sentiments are from the Bonanza Buddies stamp set. The parcels are a two step stamp. This was a fun project to make.
Next up we have a project from the Botancial Prints Product Medley on page 61.
The card base is our Thick Whisper White cardstock. If you haven’t found this yet check out page 169 of the Annual Catalogue – it gives a nice firm base for your cards. The front piece is normal Whisper White and the images have been stamped randomly in Gray Granite – I love this warm tone of gray. Before matting this to a piece of Gray Granite we embossed it using the Subtle Embossing Folder – this gives a ‘linen’ look to the cardstock. The bottom ‘lace’ portion was added after and had been die cut using the Delicate Lace Die.
The flower image has been stamped on a scrap of Whisper White and die cut with the coordinating die from the product medley. I used Purple Posy and Old Olive Stampin’ Blends to colour in. The Old Olive 1/4″ Twill Ribbon has been wrapped around the top then I tied a separate bow and adhered it with a glue dot. The birthday sentiment is from Peaceful Moments and has been heat embossed in white on a Gray Granite label die cut from the Stitched Nested Dies. The three Rhinestones have been coloured in with the Purple Posy Stampin’ Blend. You can just see a portion of the inside of the card which has one of the images stamped across the bottom.
Well that’s all for this morning – check back later today for the final three projects featuring the Forever Blossoms Suite, Poppy Moments and Best Dressed Suite.
Until then …
