Welcome back to Just Peachy Stamping! I’ve been busy creating this week and weekend, and I have a three-for card to share with you today.
Here’s my card:
I’ve combined the Creative Creases # 80, Try Stampin’ on Tuesday # 644, and Color Throwdown Challenge # 788. Here are the challenge banners:
Measurements:
- The Garden Green base measures 8-1/2 by 5-1/2 inches, scored at 2-1/8 and 4-1/4 inches.
- After dry-embossing a piece of Garden Green cardstock using the Timeworn Type 3D embossing folder, trim it to 4-1/8 by 5-3/8 inches. Burnish the fold lines using a bone folder.
- HINT: Before you adhere this piece of embossed cardstock down, make sure the lettering is right-side up. It’s faint, but will be noticeable if you get it upside down. Trust me.
- The pink and white daisy DSP (designer series paper) from the Fresh as a Daisy DSP is part of a 4 x 12 inch strip of one of the DSP pages. When trimmed, it measures 4 by 3-1/4 inches.
- The Crushed Curry DSP for the front measures 5-3/8 by 2 inches. Trim another piece of this DSP to 6 by 2-1/2 inches for the envelope flap.
- Punch a 1-inch circle using a scrap of the Garden Green 6 x 6 inch DSP for the envelope seal and run it through your XYRON create-a-sticker machine.
- Trim a piece of white cardstock to 4 by 5-1/4 inches for the inside of the card.
Cropping, & Stamping, & Assembly:
- Amazingly, I didn’t use any dimensionals on this card. Therefore, all the pieces are adhered using multipurpose liquid glue.
- When you burnish your Garden Green cardstock base, do so to create a mountain fold. In other words, burnish so that the fold turns inward towards the inside.
- Adhere the dry-embossed cardstock to the center of the front of the base.
- Adhere the Crushed Curry DSP following the TSOT #644 challenge banner as a guide.
- Next, adhere the Bubble Bath daisy DSP to the front layers.
- I used leftover pieces of Garden Green and white cardstock to crop out the two layers of daisies and the sentiment banner.
- Crop the two layers of the daisy from the Cheerful Daisy die set. I outlined both pieces using a Crushed Curry marker just to give the layers a bit of dimension.
- I used the Crushed Curry inkpad and a blending brush to very lightly blend a center on each daisy piece. This is optional since the majority of it will be covered by the sentiment.
- Using your embossing buddy from the embossing additions tool kit, rub down your leftover piece of Garden Green cardstock.
- Stamp the sentiment from the Happy & Heartfelt stamp set using VersaMark ink.
- Add white embossing powder and heat set using your heat tool.
- Crop the sentiment using the second smallest Countryside Corners die set.
- I outlined the sentiment piece using a Garden Green marker. It’s barely noticeable, but it finishes off the banner.
- Stamp the inside sentiment in Garden Green ink.
- Adhere the white cardstock to the inside of the card.
- With that, you’ve created this coordinated card, envelope, and envelope seal set.
Thank you for stopping by today!
Have a Peachy Day!
