Pastel Shimmer Scalloped Wishes

This card that uses the Pastel Shimmer Cardstock from the Online Store (along with a little Vellum) is just stunning in person! And, the Scalloped Wishes dies make it so simple to layer all the pieces for a gorgeous, quick card!

Measurements:

Basic White: 1/2 sheet, 4" x 5 1/4" (embossed layer), scrap (sentiment)
Vellum: 2 3/4" x 3 1/4"
Pastel Shimmer (OE): 3 1/8" x 3 5/8", scraps (Pool Party); scraps (Lemon Lolly & Bubble Bath)

To Make This Card:

Run White layer through Beautiful Pattern Embossing Folder from the Online Store, and then attach to folded White card base.
Next, die cut the larger "detailed" scallop die from Vellum.
Then, die cut the scalloped layer that goes underneath it in Pool Party Shimmer.
Now, take scraps of the Pastel Shimmer and die cut "stems" in Pool Party, and "flowers" from Lemon Lolly and Bubble Bath.
Arrange largest "stem", and 3 flowers, as shown, onto the Vellum layer. Now, you can flip this layer over, put your adhesive over the areas you can see with your focal point - to hide the adhesive, and then attach it to the Pool Party layer. Neat huh!
Then, add this layer to the front of your card with Dimensionals!
I did add a sentiment, stamped in Pool Party in, and embellished with a small "stem" and "flower".
The flower "centers" are Rainbow Dots.
I finished with a bow of sheer, White ribbon.

Monochromatic Scalloped Wishes

I just LOVE the stamps and dies in the Scalloped Wishes Bundle! While visiting my aunt, I had more time to play with the sets I had not had time, yet, to play with, and this was one of them! I found this awesome layered/die cut monochromatic card. I used Pecan Pie and Very Vanilla for this version, that I found somewhere. So classy, a nice masculine card, and fast and simple to make! Give it a try!

Measurements:

Very Vanilla: 1/2 sheet, 3 3/8" x 4" (bottom layer), 3" x 3 5/8" (next layer), 2 3/4" x 3 3/4" (top layer),strip
Pecan Pie: 3 3/4" x 4 5/8" (bottom layer)
Delicate Dreams DSP (N)(OE): 4" x 5 1/4" (Pecan Pie "linen")

To Make This Card:

Adhere DSP to folded Very Vanilla card base.
Die cut largest, Pecan Pie layer from Beautifully Celebrated Dies, as well as the next layer from Very Vanilla.
Stamp the largest Scalloped image in Pecan Pie ink onto next layer of Very Vanilla, and die cut with corresponding die.
Lastly, die cut the largest detailed Scalloped Die from the Scalloped Wishes Dies.
Before assembling, Stamp the "cattails" and "dragonflies", as shown onto Oval Insert from the last Scalloped Die in Pecan Pie ink. Add a little Wink of Stella to the "dragonfly wings".
Now, to put it all together!
First, layer the largest 2, Beautifully Celebrated die cuts onto the card front, a ways to the right.
Then, I adhered the stamped image and detailed die cut together, flush with each other. The 2 fit together so neatly! I then added this to the card front with Dimensionals.
And, lastly, I added the stamped center oval with Dimensionals.
Finish the card with a stamped sentiment in Pecan Pie ink. I just fussy cut a rectangle around it! And, 3 Natural Matte dots.

Filled with Sweetness Stadium Wave Card

My stampers were fascinated with the Sweet Bug Stadium Wave card I made, so I wanted to share how to make one. The Homemade Sweetness DSP images are just PERFECT for the "waves"! So, I created this "Becky Original" using the DSP and Filled with Sweetness Bundle! I LOVE how it turned out...and it really isn't difficult to make, one the waves are assembled! (And, this orientation only uses 6!)

Measurements:

Secret Sea: 1/2 sheet cut LENGTHWISE, 6" X 10" (waves), scrap (label)
Basic White: 1/4 sheet (jar), scraps
Granny Apple Green: strings, bow
Homemade Sweetness DSP (N): 4" x 5 1/4" (blue check - front), 2 pcs 4" x 5 1/4" (inside), 1 1/2" x 4 1/2" (jar topper) (small floral), fussy cut small jam jars

To Make This Card:

Score the Secret Sea base @ 5 3/8" from each end, creating an 1/8" "gusset" for the "bulk" of the waves.
Adhere the "blue check" to the front, and the 2 pcs of small floral to the inside, trimming a bit, if necessary.
Next, we'll create the waves. For this version, we need 6 - 1" "waves".
Score across the 10" side @ 4 - 8" - 8 3/4" - 9 1/2".
Cut into 6 - 1" strips that measure 1" x 10"
Next, crease each strip creating a "valley" fold. the 1/2" at the bottom you will use to attach the top and bottom together. I also used tear n tape to put these together.
To make the entire "mechanism", first place tear n tape on the right side of each "wave" with the folds to the top.
Then, assemble them together over lapping them 1/2" and adhering them to the tear n tape.
Lastly, place tear n tape on the top and bottom "waves". These will adhere them to the inside of the card.
Next, we'll insert the "mechanism" to the "spine" with Multipurpose Glue. This takes a little time to dry, put DOES work perfectly! I held it for a while, and then propped it up to finish drying. (For our class purposes, I'm going to try my low temp glue gun.)
Next, I removed the tear in tape of the top "wave" and closed the card. Repeat for the bottom "wave". And, voila the wave is done! It's really NEAT!!
Next, I fussy cut 6 "jam jars" (one of each) and adhered them to the "waves".
For the front, I stamped a "jar" in Misty Moonlight ink, and die cut with coordinating die.
I also die cut a jar topper, granny apple "strings", and a label from Misty Moonlight scrap. Also cut a White label, and cut along the dotted lines! Stamp sentiment in Misty Moonlight ink.
Stamp "strawberry" and "blueberries" in Memento Black ink, and color with Blends. Die cut with coordinating dies.
Assemble all on front of card.
To finish the inside, I added a White panel to the inside from the Nested Essentials Dies.

Homemade Sweetness Barn Door Fold

I just love the images in the Homemade Sweetness DSP, and I'm always on the lookout for fun, easy folds for my Senior Center stampers, and found this one! Originally, I was going to do this for my smaller stamping class - so would only have to fussy cut a few of the jam jars, but plans changed, and I ended up teaching my LARGER class - which meant 30 large and 20 small fussy cut images. My aunt to the rescue!! She offered to cut out all those jars for me!! And, they loved the card!

Measurements:

Misty Moonlight: 1/2 sheet cut lengthwise
Basic White:2 1/8" x 2 3/4" (label), 1 1/4" x 4 1/4" (extra layer on the front),4" x 5 1/4" (inside)
Homemade Sweetness DSP (N)(OE): 2" x 5 1/4" (blue check), 3 "large" jam jars, 2 "small" jam jars

To Make This Card:

Fold Misty Moonlight card base in half. Then, remove top "half" by cutting 2" from the top edge to the crease in the card. You will not be needing this piece.
Adhere White layer to inside of card.
Attach strip of DSP to front "flap".
Die cut "lid" from Filled with Sweetness dies, as well as one of the "labels".
Fussy cut 3 "large" jam jars, including the "honey" bottle from the DSP. Also, select 2 smaller jam jars from the other sheet.
Begin creating the front by attaching the "jar lid" to the front flap.
Then, add the "honey" bottle to the front, and 2 "taller" jars on either side.
Adhere a 4 3/4" strip of Misty Moonlight Checkered ribbon across the "jar lid".
Stamp sentiment of your choice in Misty Moonlight ink. Then, add to card over ribbon, "jar lid" and die cut jars, as shown, with Dimensionals.
Finish inside with stamped sentiment in Misty Moonlight ink - low enough not to be seen above cut of front flap. Then, add the 2 smaller "jars".
Finish the front with 3 little Strawberries and a couple Misty Moonlight dots from the Strawberries & Dots embellishments
