Slice of Summer Card with Bobbi

Hello friends, Bobbi here. It’s another summer day and this week I’m filling it with some fresh fruit from the Sunny garden of stamps! I’m using the Slice of Summer stamps and dies to create this fresh card.

To create my 5″ X 7″ card, I started with a card front panel cut from watercolor paper. I use Canson XL watercolor paper (blue pad). I hand colored a large pinkish-red heart using Kuretake Gansai Tambi watercolor paints. I added splattering in colors to match the fruit of the set – yellows, lime greens, pinks and reds. I wanted the background to be really organic looking and fresh… just like the fruit!

I stamped and cut the fruit following the layering guide on the Sunny Studio Stamps web page. It was a great reference to have while stamping the fruit. Like all layered stamping I do, I can’t help but add a few additional markings using Copics for greater shadows and white Gelly Roll pens for more highlights. However, with this set you really don’t need to because Sunny Studios has already included highlights and shadows within the layers. How cool is that?!

The fruit was attached, over the organic heart shape with one of the watermelon slices popped up using foam dots. Did you notice the bite out of one of the watermelon slices? I created the teeth marks using a scallop circle punch I had stash.

Okay, I’m going to be real with you now. I made a mistake in the lower right corner when stamping the sentiment. My paper shifted in my stamping tool and did not line up exactly with the first layer. Like all mistakes I make, I generally turn it into something I like even better. I tore the watercolor paper at the bottom and added a piece of pattern paper in a lime green sunburst pattern from the Classic Sunburst paper pack to the base and ended up loving the card even more! I stamped the phrase from the same fruit set again and added some white dots for a burst of energy to complete the card.

Slice of Summer Card with Cathy

Hey friends! Cathy here today sharing a fresh summer card featuring the Slice of Summer Stamps. Summer is my favorite season and I just love making tropical cards!

This is an A2 size card and I’ve combined some beautiful tropical products on this one. I started by die-cutting a piece of white cardstock using the largest Stitched Rectangle Die and inked it with Kitsch Flamingo Distress ink. I then embossed it using the Moroccan Circles Embossing Folder. I matted it on black cardstock and adhered it to the card front.

 

Next, I die-cut a piece of white cardstock using the largest Fancy Frames Oval Die. For the ocean background on this piece, I placed a post-it note across the oval 1 1/2" from the bottom and inked the bottom of the oval with Antique Linen Distress ink. I left the post-it note in place and die-cut a piece of eclipse masking tape using the sand portion of the Tropical Trees Backdrop Die. I placed this across the very bottom of the oval and inked the ocean with Peacock Feathers Distress ink. I inked lighter in some areas to allow a little of the Antique Linen ink to show through as a reflection of the sky on the water. I removed the masks and placed the post-it note over the ocean/sand. I then inked the sky with Kitsch Flamingo, Dried Marigold, Scattered Straw and Tumbled Glass Distress inks. I heat embossed the HELLO sentiment from the Radiant Plumeria Stamps with black embossing powder 2” from the top of the oval and 1” from the left edge.

I die-cut the largest Fancy Frames Oval Die from black cardstock and adhered the frame to the ocean background on the card front. I die-cut the Tropical Trees Backdrop Die from black cardstock and adhered the largest palm tree and a seagull.

 

To finish, I stamped the limes from the Slice of Summer Stamps using Simon Says Stamp Celery, Limelicious and Pearfection inks and die-cut them using the coordinating dies. I stamped the plumeria from the Radiant Plumeria Stamps using various pink and yellow inks from my stash and die-cut it using the coordinating dies. Finally, I heat embossed the “Summer” sentiment from the Radiant Plumeria Stamps on black cardstock with white embossing powder and fussy cut around the sentiment.

 

I hope you enjoyed and thanks for stopping by! For more inspiration, please visit my blog www.inkredibleadventures.com and you can also find me on Instagram as @cathy.chapdelaine.

Gift Card Pocket Focused Cards with Julia and Franci

Hey crafty friends! It’s Julia here with super fun mini birthday card!

I wanted to create a tiny card that would perfectly fit a gift card, so this is what I came up with! I stamped out the image from Love Monkey onto Strathmore Bristol smooth paper and colored it in using Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers. Then, I die cut the smallest of the Stitched Rectangle dies and I ink blended the background using a grass and cloud stencil and Distress Oxide Inks. I heat embossed the sentiment from Inside Greetings Birthday in white onto vellum and layered it over the grass.

Inks used: Tumbled Glass, Bundles Sage, Shabby Shutters, Mowed Lawn. Zig Markers used:  999, 74, 68, 64, 66; 28; 45, 41; 33, 42; 50, 51, 55.

To create the card base for my mini card, I cut a strip of light blue cardstock to 2 1/2 x 7 1/2" and I scored it at 3 3/4". I added the background to my little card base and then attached the Gift Card Pocket to the inside. 

I also die cut the word dies that come with the Gift Card Pocket die set out of teal cardstock and added the words "for you" to the front of the pocket. To finish off my mini card, I added some sparkly Aquamarine Jewels to the gift card pocket!

Thank you so much for stopping by today! Have a wonderful week!

Happy Wednesday crafty friends! It's Franci here with you today, with a cute new yummy project.

First of all I die cut all the cupcake elements out of colored cardstocks and patterned papers from these sets: Classic Gingham, Summer Splash and Dots & Stripes. I also cut out the lemon using the Slice of Summer coordinated dies and glued my cupcake together with liquid glue.

Then I die cut all the elements from the new Gift Card Pocket die set, glued the sentiment on the front and the little pocket on the back - turning this cute cupcake into a little gift tag! 

Thanks a lot for stopping by today and have a lovely day!
