Stampin’ Up! Dressed to Impress Plaid Shaker Birthday Card

This birthday shaker card is for my mother…all the things she loves…shine, sparkle, gold, pink and made by me! It features the Dressed to Impress stamps and dies and the Celebration Labels dies. Enjoy!

The Paper Cuts

  • Shimmer White Cardstock: a cardbase cut at 4 1/4″ x 11″ and scored at 5 1/2″, two of the 2nd smallest Celebration Labels die and scraps for the floral and sentiment.
  • Plaid Tidings 6×6 Designer Series Paper: a 6×6 sheet cut at 4″ x 5 1/4″. You’ll use the remaining pieces for the envelope flap and the strip inside.
  • Gold Foil Sheets: the middle sized Celebration Labels die.
  • Window Sheet: the 2nd smallest Celebration Labels die.

The Creating

  • Use the perfume bottle die to cut out the center of one of the Shimmer White labels. Lay the label on top of the other, place in the Stamparatus to line up the perfume stamp through the opening. Remove the label with the opening. Stamp the perfume bottle with Versamark Ink, sprinkle with Gold Stampin’ Emboss and melt with the Heat Tool. Repeat with the sentiment on the inside of the card, the rose image and the “hello fabulous”.
  • Color the rose image with Stampin’ Blends.
  • Fussy cut the “hello fabulous” with Paper Snips. Apply Foam Adhesive Strips to the top of the “h” and the “ll”s.
  • Die cut the floral image with the coordinating die. Apply Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back.
  • Use Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive to apply the Window Sheet to the back of the Shimmer White die cut of the perfume bottle. Apply Foam Adhesive Strips along the edges of the bottom portion of the bottle and around the rest of the label to support it.
  • Adhere the plaid panel on the card front. Top with the Gold Foil label. Add the Shimmer White label with the embossed perfume bottle. Place your filler in the center of the perfume bottle. Top with the window sheet label.
  • Add the floral image, the sentiment, the bow and the strip to the inside.
  • Adhere the remaining plaid piece to the envelope flap and trim excess.

Stampin’ Up! Celebration Labels Dies Floral Congratulations Card

This card features the Celebration Labels Dies and the Beautiful Friendship Photopolymer Stamp Set. I saw Dena Rekow at The Creativity Cave use this set with the Celebration Labels Dies and thought it went well together. Here’s my version. It is a Congratulations card for a young stamping couple I know who is getting married soon. Enjoy!

The Paper Cuts

  • Thick Whisper White Cardstock: 4 1/4″ x 11″, scored at 5 1/2″
  • Whisper White Cardstock: second largest Celebration Labels Die
  • Seaside Spay Cardstock: two 5 1/4″ x 4″
  • Pear Pizzazz Cardstock: scraps for 2 Celebration Labels sprig dies and the sentiment banner.

The Creating

  • Use Seaside Spray ink to stamp the large floral image from Beautiful Friendship on the Celebration Labels die and the envelope flap.
  • Mask the floral image and use Pear Pizzazz ink to stamp the 3 leaf image in 1st Generation and the double leave image in 2nd Generation.
  • Use Crushed Curry ink to stamp the frond image in 2nd Generation.
  • Use Basic Gray ink to stamp the sentiments on the Pear Pizzazz scrap and one of the Seaside Spray panels. Stamp the small flower image and the double leaf image in 2nd Generation over the inside sentiment and adhere to the inside of the card.
  • Flag the ends of the sentiment strip with the Banner Triple Punch.
  • Emboss the remaining Seaside Spray panel with the Subtle 3D Embossing Folder. Adhere the stamped Celebration Label die to the center with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. Use Stampin’ Dimensionals to pop these layers up on the card front.
  • Cut the two sprig dies from Pear Pizzazz cardstock and adhere them to the stamped image. Use dimensionals to pop on the sentiment banner.
  • Tap the Wink of Stella against a bone folder over the card for a sprinkle of sparkle.

Stampin’ Up! Celebration Tidings Treat Box

Yesterday, I received a new stamp bundle in the mail and, of course, I couldn’t wait to make something with it. Tonight’s project features the Celebration Tidings Bundle which includes the Celebration Tidings Photopolymer Stamp Set and the Celebrations Labels Dies at a 10% Discount. Enjoy!

The Paper Cuts

  • Basic Black Cardstock: 4 1/2″ x 6 3/4″ and the largest label die
  • Whisper White Cardstock: Second largest label die and a small scrap

The Creating

  • Score the Basic Black Cardstock at 1 1/2″ on each side. Fold and crease with Bone Folder.
  • Use Paper Snips to snip the score marks on the long side up to the intersecting score mark.
  • Put Multipurpose Liquid Glue on the back side of the four cut corners and bring to the inside to adhere to the sides to make the box.
  • Cut the two die cut labels in half with the Paper Trimmer. On the Whisper White halves add the stamping in Tuxedo Black Ink. Tip: Since there are two sides with matching designs, I used my Stamparatus for twice the speed. Add Wink of Stella to the spider web.
  • Stamp 2 spiders on Whisper White scrap, fussy cut and add a Stampin’ Dimensional to the back.
  • Use the Dark Pumpkin Stampin’ Blend to add color to the Whisper White Crinkle Seam Binding Ribbon. This is so easy, you only have to do one side and it dries quickly. It also makes the ribbon a little stiffer which eases the tying and make the bow stand up pretty.
  • Tie the colored ribbon around the Whisper White half labels. Tip: Ever feel like you need extra hands when tying a ribbon around a layer? I use my Stamparatus and magnet to hold the label in place while I tie the bow. Adhere the labels to the Basic Black halves with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
  • Put adhesive on the long side of the black box and place the label layer on top lining up the bottom and side edges.
  • Place your spiders and add the candy. The bag I used was left over from a previous project and measured 4″ x 6″. I am going to order the Mosaic Gusseted Cellophane Bags (linked below). It will be a perfect fit and the black and white design will look good for multiple holidays. I tied the top of the bag with the Black and White Bakers Twine from the Playful Pets Trim Combo Pack.

I filled my treat with Candy Corn because it is one of my favs. On our last Team Meeting I discovered there are folks who don’t like Candy Corn…what!? Maybe they haven’t had Brach’s with Honey. I didn’t tell them I had just bought a 5 lb bag at Sam’s (blush). How about you? Love it or don’t? Let me know in the comments below.

Please email me at stampdabbles@gmail.com with any questions, if I can be of assistance with your stamping creativity, or if there is something specific you’d like to see. There are links below for the products used in this project. Purchases from my online store help me provide these card projects through the blog.
