The Stamp Simply Ribbon Store - Sweet Sentiments Easter Candy Box

Hello and Happy St. Patrick's Day!  Today, is my day to post for The Stamp Simply Ribbon Store.  I don't happen to have an Irish themed project to share with you but at least there is a little bit of green in it from the candy LOL!  


I used one of the Crystal Clear Boxes-5.5'' Square from The Stamp Simply Ribbon Store and I altered it using some of the beautiful pattern papers from the Graphic 45 Sweet Sentiments Collection.  This is so quick and easy to make and it's a great little sweet Easter treat to give.  I cut two strips of the pattern paper to make a belly band for the box.  Then I fussy cut some of the images and cut more pattern paper to to layer them with.  On the belly band and the lavender and polk-a-dot paper I inked the edges with Tim Holtz Distress Ink Pad-Dusty Concord.  I used 3D Foam Squares to pop the images up a little and adhered them to the front of the box.  


Here is a close up of the images.




Then I filled the box with some pretty pastel Jordan almonds .

Like I said this was very quick and easy but it gives a beautiful presentation.

As always you can click on all the photos to enlarge them and all of the supplies are listed below with links.

I hope you had a wonderful weekend!

The Stamp Simply Ribbon Store - Graphic 45 Sweet Sentiments Canvas

Hello blogging friends and Happy Monday to everyone!  Today, is my day to post for The Stamp Simply Ribbon Store and I have a beautiful altered canvas using some of the papers from the Graphic 45 Sweet Sentiments Collection to share with you.


Here is the canvas--it's an 8 x 8--perfect size for the 8 x 8 paper pads.  I just absolutely love this paper and the gorgeous images!  As soon as I saw this paper I knew I wanted to make some type of wall hanging with it.  Now I know at first glance this might look like a project that took all day but it actually came together pretty quick.  Nothing hard or complicated--just some fussy cutting, layering and gluing. Plus I have a step-by-step tutorial for you too.  ;-)


Here is a close up look at the canvas.  You can click on all of the photos to enlarge them and see all the details.


To start I used Folk Art Acrylic Paint-Linen to paint the sides and outer edges of the canvas.


I used two sheets of this pattern paper and while the canvas was drying I fussy cut these images.  


Next I adhered the 8 x 8 sheet of paper to the canvas and then I added all of the pieces I had fussy cut.  I used 3D Foam Squares from Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L™ to adhere all of the pieces and add some dimension.  


I wanted to add a little sparkle so I used Tombow Mono Multi Liquid Glue and Tim Holtz Distress Glitter Clear Rock Candy.


To finish off the canvas I added some beautiful laces and trims from 
The Stamp Simply Ribbon Store.  I added one of the trims all around the edge of the canvas and then I added some along the bottom and sides.  


Here is a close up of some of the laces from the  May Arts Ribbon Sampler Delicate Vintage Lace.  I also used some 1/4'' White Silk Ribbon and May Arts Ribbon Sampler Vintage Pink.


Here is a close up of the gorgeous venise lace!  I used Venise Lace 1.25" - Maria White, Venise Lace 2.5" - Isabella Ivory and then I added some Melissa Frances Cream Pearls.


I hope you enjoyed the canvas and the tutorial!

Pansies In Spring Cling Stamps - SVG Files - JustRite Papercraft March Release Day Four

Hello blogging friends!  Today, is day four of the JustRite® Papercraft March Release.  The Design Team is showcasing a stamp set and a match SVG digital cut file.


CL-02013 Pansies in Spring Cling Stamps  I love this stamp set!  Pansies are one of my favorite flowers.  



The blue shaded items in the product photo represent the images you will get in your download.


I altered a little frame using both the CL-02013 Pansies in Spring Cling Stamps and SVG-02013 SVG Pansies in Spring Digital Cut File Download for CL-02013.  I used the exact cut file for the pansies.  You can click HERE for a tutorial to see how I stamp an exact cut.  I used simply smooth white cardstock and Memento Rich Cocoa ink to stamp the images and then I colored them with Copic markers.


For the sentiment I used Memento Grape Jelly ink.  


For a little sparkle I added some diamond stickles and a few sequins.  I just love how this little frame turned out!  It's a quick DIY project and it's a great accent piece on my desk.

Magnolia Vintage Labels Seven Clear Stamps - Ribbons, Tape and Lace Clear Stamps - & Matching SVG Files - JustRite Papercraft March Release Day Three

Hello blogging friends!  Today, I have another New Release to share with you from  JustRite® Papercraft .  The Design Team is showcasing two stamp sets and two SVG digital cut files today.  








I didn't used this cut file on my card but I used the two stamp sets and the magnolia cut file.


Here is the card that I made using CR-02017 Magnolia Vintage Labels Seven Clear Stamps, CR-02028 Ribbons, Tape and Lace Clear Stamps and SVG-02017 SVG Magnolia Vintage Labels Seven Digital Cut File Download for CL-02013.  I also used  JustRite® Custom Dies JB-04895 Vintage Labels Seven Dies for the label shape.  For the background I stamped the ribbon images on to simply smooth ivory cardstock using Vintage Photo ink and then I inked the edges with Antique Linen and Vintage Photo inks. 


Here is a close up of the bow.  I used one of the stamps from CR-02028 Ribbons, Tape and Lace Clear Stamps and StazOn Saddle Brown ink to stamp on the seam binding.


Here is a Designer Tip--when stamping on seam binding or ribbon tape the ends down so it won't move around or slip when stamping.  Also, I use StazOn ink so the ink will be permanent and not bleed in to the seam binding or ribbon.


I stamped the label shape using Rich Cocoa ink.  Then I die cut the shape using JustRite® Custom Dies JB-04895 Vintage Labels Seven Dies and inked the inside edges with Antique Linen ink.  For the magnolia flower I used the SVG-02017 SVG Magnolia Vintage Labels Seven Digital Cut File Download for CL-02013 and CR-02017 Magnolia Vintage Labels Seven Clear Stamps.  Click HERE to see a tutorial on how I stamp on to an exact cut.  To color the image I used  Chameleon™ Color Tone Markers PK1, Y1, OL1.  I used Only 3 makers to color the entire image!  



Do you see the little pink enamel dots?  Guess what?  They are homemade!  I will be sharing how I made them in an upcoming blog post--in a couple of days. ;-)

I hope you like today's card and designer tip!

Stitched Flowers Vintage Tags & SVG Files - JustRite Papercraft - March Release Day One

Hello blogging friends!  Today, is Day One of the JustRite® Papercraft March Release and we have something exciting to share with you!  JustRite® Papercraft now has SVG Files available to match some of the stamp sets!!  

Here is a look at the stamp set and SVG file we are showcasing today.




SVG-02018 SVG Stitched Flowers Vintage Tags Digital Cut Download for CR-02018  The blue shaded items in the product photo represent the images you will get in your download.


Here is the card that I designed using both the CR-02018 Stitched Flower Vintage Tags  Clear Stamps and SVG-02018 SVG Stitched Flowers Vintage Tags Digital Cut Download for CR-02018 from  JustRite® Papercraft.  For my card I used the exact cut file.  


The SVG Files will allow you to be able to cut with and offset or and exact cut.  Here is a picture so you can see the to two different cuts side by side.  The first one is the offset cut and the flowers on the card are the exact cut.  


I have a tutorial to share with you on how I stamp the exact cuts.  I remove all of my cuts from the mat and when I do this I put a little X on the back of the cut.  This way if I don't stamp everything right away I will know with a quick glance the front and back of the cut.  I place the stamp on an acrylic block (face up) and before inking the stamp I place the cut on top of the stamp and line it up to match.  


Next I apply a little bit of adhesive from E-Z Dots® Repositionable adhesive to an acrylic block with a grid.


Then I press the acrylic block with adhesive down on top of the cut.  When I do this I use the grid to line up areas on the grid as a visual for when I stamp (see X's).  I lift the block straight up and the cut is on one block and the stamp is on the other.  Ink up the stamp and then remember the lines on the grid for lining up the cut with the stamp.


Stamp.  ;-)


Perfect results! ;-) I used Mix'd Media Inx Jasmine to stamp on to the Kraft cardstock.


I used Prismacolor Colored Pencils to add just a hint of color to the images.


Here is a close up of the butterfly and the tag with the sentiment.  To create the tag I used one of the die templates from the S5-211 Romantic Rectangles Two set from  Spellbinders Paper Arts®.


Here is a close up of the flowers.  I added pink buttons for the flower centers.  I also used my 
Zig Wink of Stella Clear Glitter Brush Pen brush pen to add some sparkle to the card.


Here is a look at some of the offset cuts that I colored and will be on an upcoming project.


I hope you enjoyed the stamping tutorial and the card.  I am really excited to be using the SVG files--they are going to be a lot of fun!

The Stamp Simply Ribbon Store - Kaisercraft Telegraph Road - You Had Me At Hello Card

Hello and Happy Monday to everyone!  Today, is my day to post for The Stamp Simply Ribbon Store and I have a fun card to share with you using some of the New pattern paper from the Kaisercraft Telegraph Road 6 1/2'' Paper Pad collection.


Here is the card I designed.  I love the images in this paper pad!  I didn't do any stamping or inking--just some fussy cutting, distressing and layers of paper with a few embellishments.  Oh, and did you see the beautiful Venise Lace?  LOVE It!!!  Sharon has a new collection of gorgeous Venise Lace in the store--really a must see and must have LOL!  


One of the great things about the paper pad is not only does it have fabulous papers but there is also a couple of pages with cutouts and die cuts--gotta love that!  I used A2 Matting Basics A and S5-132 A2 Matting Basics B die templates to create the mats.  Then I layered the paper and added Venise Lace .75" - Lucia Ivory, 1/4" Silk Ribbon by May Arts White, and Prima Flowers Anna Marie.  Then I fussy cut and distressed a couple of the cutout images from the paper pad and layered them.  


Here is a close up of the notebook paper piece.  Notice the top of it is cut to look like it was ripped out of a notebook.  It's really quick and easy to get that look.


I used a very tiny hole punch--about a 2mm.  I punched out the holes going across the top of the paper.


Then I made tiny little cuts to snip out the top of the paper.  I ran my finger across the top of couple of times to give it a more worn look--like if it was just ripped out of a notebook and then I attached it to the card front.  


I love it when cards come together so quick and easy like this!  To finish off the card I added a few Prima Sugar Dots Everyday Vintage.

As always you can click on all the photos to enlarge them and all of the supplies are listed below with links.

I hope you had a wonderful weekend!

Just A Note Card with a Dangle Purse Charm

Hello everyone!  Today, I have a card with a little gift all in one to share with you.  


Dangle purse charms are so trendy right now and why not create one to add to the front of a card.  These are quick, easy and inexpensive to create--plus they really dress up the card and make cute little gifts.  


To create the dangle purse charm I started with a bottle cap, added the image and then added the clear round epoxy sticker.  Then I punched a couple of holes in the bottle cap--top and bottom.  Next I added Silver Jump Rings and some Silver Tone Chain (Item #CH876-P) to the bottle cap and started creating the dangle charm.  I added a bird charm from the Birds of a Feather collection, a tree from the Natures Garden Charm Collection , a silver flower charm and a couple of Frosted Acrylic Flower Beads (Item #ABD332-BK) with pearls.  All of the charms, chain and jump rings are from  ButterBeeScraps.  Then I added a large clasp.  When I made the bow I added a Silver Jump Rings so I would be able to clip on the dangle purse charm and add it to the card.  I added one of the Frosted Acrylic Flower Beads (Item #ABD332-BK) with a pearl to the top so when the dangle purse charm is removed there wouldn't be an empty jump ring on the bow.  Tip--I know the chunky dangle purse charms are very popular but when you are adding one to a card don't make it too chunky or your card won't be able to stand up with the charm attached to it.  ;-)


To create the card base I used black cardstock with S6-001 5x7 Matting Basics A die template.  Then I used kraft cardstock with the S5-211 Romantic Rectangles Two die template.  Before removing the paper I inked the inside edges with Memento Tuxedo Black ink.  Then I stamped a sentiment from the CR-04915 Just A Note Vintage Sentiment Tag Clear Stamp Set from  JustRite® Papercraft.  Next I die cut the birds using black cardstock and the IN-024 Bird On A Wire die template.  All of the die templates are from  Spellbinders Paper Arts®.  I used 3D Foam Squares from Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L™ in between the layers and to add some dimension.  

I hope you like the card I shared today.  It would be a great card and gift to give to your girlfriends.  
Hope you have a Fantastic weekend!
Thanks so much for stopping by!

Hugs & Smiles,
Heidi
