May 2018 FREE Card Making Tutorial


Since I attended the Stampin’ Up! Onstage convention in April, I’ve had my hands on the new Annual Catalogue which means I knew all about retiring products and colours.

 
With that in mind, I set about focusing on some of those items that I’ve loved, just one last time before they disappear into the crafting ether at the end of this month (or earlier if they all get snapped up from the retiring list).
 
 

 

This card uses the following items that are retiring –


Tempting Turquoise Cardstock and Ink

Tutti-Frutti Designer Series paper

Glitter Enamel Dots

 
How to make this card –

·       Create an A6 card base by folding half an A4 sheet of  Tempting Turquoise cardstock in half

·       Adhere a 10x14.4 cm whisper white mat to the inside to create a place to write

·       Trim a piece of Tutti-Frutti Designer Series paper to 10x 14.9cm and adhere to the card base with an equal border on each side

·       Trim a piece of Whisper White cardstock to 8x14.9cm

·       Using the sketchy bubble stamp from the Bubble Over stamp set, create a background for your card using Tempting Turquoise and Lemon Lime Twist Inks

·       Using Tempting Turquoise, add your sentiment to the card towards the top

·       Adhere to the card

·       Using the Bottles and Bubbles framelet dies cut out the following –

2 straws from Whisper White

2 bottle caps from Whisper White

1 large bottle from Tempting Turquoise

1 large label from Tempting Turquoise

1 large bottle from Lemon Lime Twist

1 large label from Lemon Lime Twist

        2 large bottles from Vellum

 
·       Stamp the star bottle top stamp onto the Whisper White bottle tops using Tempting Turquoise and Lemon Lime Twist Inks

·       To assemble the bottles, firstly adhere the labels to the Vellum, then adhere the Vellum to the cardstock bottles, using the label to hide your adhesive. I chose to mix up the colours. Adhere your bottle cap to the label then a straw to the back.

·       Stick each bottles to the card using Stampin Dimensionals

·       Add Glitter Enamel shapes and Glitter and Clear Epoxy shapes as required.

All the products used are available to purchase in my online store or can be ordered through me.

 Hope you all have a wonderful day,

Karen
