This weeks Create With Kathe” Craft Class was piggy backed on to the “Creative Inkers" Blog Hop , celebrating the Occasionals 2015 brochure.
Project 1. "Painted Petals" Card
This first card is
in shades of Blushing Bride and Strawberry Slush.
It features the
gorgeous “Painted Petals” stamp set, which was the first stamp set on my Wish
List when the new Occasionals brochure, which stated on the 6th of
January.
The Blushing Bride
cardstock has been scored using the Simply Scored Scoring Tool, to give it an
elegant look.
Classic Stampin Pads
used throughout the card are Garden Green and Strawberry Slush.
For the Tag, I used
the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch and Project Life Corner, along with Fancy Foil
Designer Vellum, which has been backed with Strawberry Slush cardstock.
The Tag has Venetian
Crochet Trim that has been secured/stapled with the Handheld Stapler, and some
pink twine has been tied in a bow and secured with a Glue Dot.
The finishing touch
is the Pearl Basic Jewel, which has been coloured with the Melon Mambo
Blendabilities, and anchors the card nicely.
For the card insert,
a strip of Strawberry Slush cardstock has been added, which has been punched
using the Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border Punch.
The flowers have
been stamped in Strawberry Slush and Garden Green, and the sentiment in this
card has been placed on the lower right corner.
This is a sweet
little card, which I have already given away to a number of friends.
Wah-lah …
"Painted Petals" card done!
Project 2 "Best Year Ever" + Butterflies Card
My second card
features the “Butterflies” Framelits, along with the “Best Year Ever” stamp set
and “Irresistibly Yours” Specialty Designer Series Paper.
The card base is
Bermuda Bay, with layers of Coastal Cabana and Pool Party.
The words “YOU made
MY DAY” are stamped in Bermuda Bay ink.
The Tag is made
using the Angled Tag Topper Punch, and the “Irresistibly Yours” Specialty
Designer Series Paper has been sponged with Coastal Cabana ink.
Two butterflies have
been cut from Bermuda Bay and Coastal Cabana cardstock, using the gorgeous new
“Butterflies” Framelits. They are layered and secured to the Tag,
and a flower has been placed on the centre of the butterfly.
I have two different
cards pictured, as one has Seam Binding Ribbon in Pool Party tied through the
Tag loop, the other has the SAB2015 "Best
Year Ever" Accessory Pack Polyester Ribbon in Coastal Cabana.
The finishing touch
is the Pearl Basic Jewel, which has been coloured with the Coastal Cabana
Blendabilities, and anchors the card nicely.
For the Card Insert,
the words “Best. Year. Ever.” are stamped on Naturals White cardstock in
Bermuda Bay ink.
The stamp set “Best
Day Ever” also has a lovely splotchy circles stamp, which I have used in the
lighter colour of Coastal Cabana.
Wah-lah … "Best Year Ever" + Butterflies
Card done!
I also made an alternate/mash up version
in Wisteria Wonder and Elegant Eggplant
