I loved this blue version of the Sophisticated Sled! I added my own touches, of course, but I love it! It uses the Winter Meadow DSP on Blueberry Bushel base, along with silver accents. I just love the little silver berries, from the Festive Pearls (retired)!
Measurements:
- Blueberry Bushel: 1/2 sheet
- Winter Meadow: 3 3/8" x 5", 1/2" x 5 1/4"
- Brushed Silver: 2" x 4" (sled runners), scrap
- Basic White: 4" x 5 1/4", 2 3/4" x 4 1/4" (label), scrap (skates)
- Pecan Pie: 2 1/4" x 2 3/4"
- Boho Blue: scraps
- Shaded Spruce: scraps
- Lost Lagoon: scraps
To Make this Card
- Cut DSP into 3 pcs - each 1 1/8" wide. Space evenly onto folded Blueberry Bushel card and adhere.
- Die cut "label" from Countryside Corners dies. Emboss with Distressed Tile 3D Embossing folder. Set aside.
- Now, for the sled. Die cut the runners/base and ice skate blades from Brushed Silver. (OE)
- Die cut the ice skates from White, and the "laces" from Boho Blue. (this is so cool!) Also, die cut 2 "sprigs" - one from Shaded Spruce and one from Lost Lagoon. Now you're ready to assemble!
- Die cut the sled from Pecan Pie.
- Now, to assemble!! Put "green" glue onto the runners and cross pieces. Adhere the sled, and the top "rail". (I worked on my silicone sheet. Worked great!)
- Glue the "blades" to the right side of the ice skates. Then, add glue to the "laces" and tuck in to the slit on the ice skates, too cool!!)
- Glue the 2 sprigs together. I put the darker one on the bottom, but you do whatever you like. I also staggered them a little bit. Glue to the sled as shown.
- Tie a double bow from silver cord. Add to the sled with a Mini Glue Dot.
- I added the ice skates to the tails of the bow, using good old scotch tape! Make them different lengths and then adhere to the sled.
- Now you're ready to add the sled to the White label. The sled is flush to the label, but I added the label to the card with Dimensionals.
- Finish the inside with White piece and strip of DSP.
- Finish the outside with clusters of silver beads from the Festive Pearls.
