Paper Crafting Blog Hop – Punches!

12 Comments

Welcome to our September Paper Crafting Blog Hop with Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators from all over the world! Each demonstrator is featuring a project using punches!

You may have arrived here from Tracy’s blog. She had a fabulous project! I chose the Beautiful Autumn Bundle (#155189) because it has the Beautiful Autumn Stamp Set (#153450) and the Autumn Punch Pack (#153609).

I started my card on a Cajun Craze card base with a layer of crumb cake under a layer of gorgeous paper from the Gilded Autumn Specialty DSP (#153520).

I cut a circle in the DSP with the Layering Circle Dies (#151770) and inserted a piece of Very Vanilla cut with the same die. The Very Vanilla is popped up on dimensionals and then surrounded with leaves and acorns stamped in Cajun Craze, Mint Macaron, and Crumb Cake. The sentiment is stamped in Mint Macaroon, too.

I finished off the card with two pieces of ribbon from the Basket Weave & Metallic Ribbon Combo Pack (#153553). They are Copper and Mint Macaron.

Welcome to our August Paper Crafting Blog Hop with Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators from all over the globe! Each demonstrator is featuring a different Suite of Products this month!

You may have arrived here from Tracy’s blog. She had a fabulous project! I chose the Whale of Time Suite Collection (#154126).

The Whale of a Time Suite includes:

  • Whale Done Photopolymer Stamp Set (10% off)
  • Whale of a Time 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper
  • Whale of a Time Sequins
  • Pool Party 3/8″ Sheer Ribbon
  • Whale Punch (10% off)
  • Seabed 3D Embossing Folder
  • To order, add item #154126 to your order

Such a great value, all of the products shown above for $65.50!

I started my card on a Pool Party card base with a layer embossed with Seabed 3D Embossing Folder (#152700) after a circle was cut with the Layering Circles Dies (#151770).

Next, I adhered a piece of Window Sheets (#142314) to the back of the embossed panel. Then I surrounded the opening with Adhesive Foam Strips (#141825) making sure there were no gaps. I then added Whale Of A Time Sequins (#152461) inside the Foam Strips. I carefully pulled off the backing on the Foam Strips and adhered a piece of the Whale Of A Time Designer Series Paper (#152460) and then adhered the panel to the card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) supporting the bottom of the panel.

That adorable whale was stamped in Pretty Peacock and punched out with the Whale Punch (#(152699). The water splashes were punched from a scrap of Pretty Peacock. The sentiment from the Whale Done Photopolymer Stamp Set (#152470) was stamped in Pretty Peacock on a scrap of Granny Apple Green. This card will be headed to my granddaughter!

Isn’t the Whale of a Time DSP adorable?

I accidentally ordered 2 of these bundles. My mistake gives you the opportunity to have it for $50, instead of the $52.67 it would be to order it on your own. First to comment they want it, gets it.

Take a variety of patterned and solid papers and cut 1″ x 5-1/4″ rectangles. The simplest way to make the card is diagonally cut each rectangle and then alternate them across the card. You can cut other smaller pieces, but start out simple!

July Paper Crafting Blog Hop!

Welcome to our July Paper Crafting Blog Hop with Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators from all over the globe! Our theme this month is our lovely Designer Series Paper! DSP for short!

You may have arrived from Tracy’s blog. She had a fabulous project! I chose the Playing With Patterns 6″x6″ DSP (#152490). This is a great card to use up scraps. I cut 3 sets of 6″ x 1/2″ strips from 6 pieces of patterned paper. You can use both sides of 3 pieces of DSP or a total of 4 or 5 patterns, it is all up to you!! Take a piece of Whisper White or Very Vanilla cardstock cut at 5 1/4″ x 4″. This will be cut down to 5″ x 3 3/4″ after the strips are adhered. Start by adhering 2 long strips of DSP diagonally across the card. Next take 2 different pieces and place them at a 90 degree angle or perpendicular to the first piece, in about the middle of the first piece. then alternate 2 pieces in each direction to the edges. Trim off the excess ends, they can be used to fill in small sections. Cut the finished piece to 5″ x 3 3/4″.

The card base is Calypso Coral with a layer of Night of Navy on top. That layer is 5 1/8″ x 3 7/8″. To keep with the angular theme of the card I used the Stitched Nested Labels Dies (#149638) for the sentiment from the Itty Bitty Birthdays cling stamp set (#148618). Happy was stamped in Night of Navy and Birthday was stamped inside the card.

If using a floral Designer Series Paper, you can emboss the DSP layer to give it a quilted look before adhering it to the 2 other layers.
