Hello and welcome to November’s Stamptastic Friends Blog Hop. This month we are all about 3D items and I would like to share a Simple Christmas Wreath with you, that I CASED (Copy And Share Everything) from the mini catalogue pg47. On my first look through the catalogue, I was drawn to the Sweetest Star Bundle. The fun images are so cute and having a punch makes for quick and easy crafting. I have also seen this turned into a Halloween wreath instead of a Christmas Wreath.

I haven’t got the DSP (designer series paper), nor the ribbon used in the sample. That’s right, I don’t have everything! Lol. I have used the Sentimental Christmas DSP, which is my favourite, and the Shaded Spruce Satin & Sheer Ribbon. The florist’s ring was one I had previously purchased to create a different Christmas wreath; these can be purchased from various places at low cost. You could cut one from strong card.

A Simple Christmas Wreath

Choose three designs of DSP and punch out six of each design, using the Sweetest Star Punch. This is enough for a 10″ wreath. Score along from each point and crease. Use a hot glue gun to attach your stars to your wreath. Alternate your designs and turn stars to various orientations.

Stamp your sentiment onto Basic White cardstock, using Shaded Spruce ink. I used the More Wishes stamp set for my sentiment. Trim to required size and flag cut the lefthand side. Matt onto Poppy Parade cardstock. Attach to your wreath.

Stamp your chosen image onto a strip of Basic White cardstock, using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. Colour the stamped image with Stampin’ Blends. I used Poppy Parade, Wild Wheat, Basic Black, Ivory, and added Wink Of Stella to any white areas. Once dry punch out and adhere to the right of your sentiment, using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Tie a large bow with Shaded Spruce Satin & Sheer Ribbon and adhere behind you punched out image.

Finish your Simple Christmas Wreath by adding a length of ribbon to hang.

I hope I have inspired you to try creating your own Christmas Wreath. All the products used are listed below and available to purchase from my online store.

Please do continue to hop round for lots more creativity and inspiration. I can’t wait to see what the other demonstrators have chosen to share with you.

Hello and welcome to the March Tech 4 Stampers blog hop. This month we are all about flowers and with Spring being just around the corner, what could be better. I wanted to create a Floral Plaque as a gift for a friend. We all have lots of floral stamps, papers and dies, that we use regularly for our cardmaking, scrapbooking, but have you ever thought about using them to create a 3D Floral Plaque? This can be a beautiful addition to your own home or used as a fabulous gift for a friend or family member.

With our theme being flowers, I just had to use the Paper Florist Dies. These dies can create a full range of flower types, depending how you fit the pieces together. For my floral plaque, I have kept it quite simple, using only two sets of petal dies and two foliage dies.

Creating your 2D Floral Plaque

Using a sponge dauber or blending brush, Old Olive and Early Espresso ink add colour to your chosen plaque. I added more around the edges. Allow to dry whilst die cutting. (I purchased my plaque from a local craft store.)

For your three large flowers, die cut two sets of the large petals for each flower, using Calypso Coral cardstock. Use a blending brush and Calypso Coral ink to add shading to the edges of your petals. Add dimension by curling the petals with your bonefolder. Adhere your petals together using mini glue dots. For two of my flowers, I have glued them together in two layers of three and the other I layered round in a circle. Die cut centers for your flowers using Lemon Lolly cardstock and adhere to your flowers.

For your five smaller flowers, die cut one set of the four X type petals for each flower, using Very Vanilla cardstock. Using your bonefolder, curl the petals both forward and some backwards. Layer together, using mini glue dots, and offset the petals. For two I have only used two layers and not all four. This just gives a different look. Die cut centers for each flower from Lemon Lolly cardstock and adhere into place.

Using Old Olive cardstock, die cut several leaves and foliage pieces. I have used three of the single leaf and four of the multi leaf. Add dimension to these with your bonefolder.

Arrange your flowers on your plaque and adhere into place using mini glue dots and Stampin’ Dimensionals. Fill in any open areas with your leaves and adhere into place with mini glue dots.

To finish up your floral plaque, heat emboss a sentiment in white onto Old Olive cardstock and trim to size. Add using dimensionals and embellish with several Brushed Brass Butterflies.

I do hope you have found some inspiration with me. All products used (excluding plaque) are listed below and available to purchase from my online shop.

Please do continue to hop round for lots more inspiration.

Hello. On my Facebook live, 15.02.24, I shared my Accordion Mini Album with you. I did say I would blog the measurements and photos, sorry it has taken me a while to do this. But here it is.

The base pages for the album are a Cal Summers design and I have added pockets and flaps, plus the decoration as I desired.

I just can’t get enough of the Bee Mine Suite and have used a pack of DSP (designer series paper) already. The bright and bold images are great fun and are perfect for so many occasions. The suite includes a stamp set and punch bundle, 12 x 12 DSP, ribbon, embellishments, and some super cute square pillow boxes.

The products I used to create my Accordion Mini Album are listed below and available to purchase from my online shop, with the exception on the ‘Place Photo Here’ stamp and a couple pieces of DSP which were from the Sunny Days DSP pack available during Sale-a-bration.

You can see a full video run through of my album here.

Measurements for your Accordion Mini Album

Front and back cover – Greyboard 7″ x 5″.

Base pages – 7 5/8″ x 5″. Score at 7″ & 7 1/8″

Landscape pocket – 8″ x 2 1/2″. Score at 1/2″ & 7 1/2″ on long side and 1/2″ on short side.

Portrait pocket – 2 1/2″ x 6″. Score at 1/2 ” on short side and 1/2″ & 5 1/2″ on long side.

Portrait flap – 6 3/4″ x 5″. Score at 1/2″ & 5/8″ on short side.

Landscape flap – 7″ x 5″. Score at 1/2″ & 5/8″ on long side.

Faux waterfall – 5 off 4 1/2″ x 5″. Score at 1/2″ on short side.

Putting it together

If you would like to see a video tutorial on how to put the Accordion Mini Album together, you can watch Cal Summers class here. There are three parts as she shows you how to decorate aswell. Part 1, Part 2, Part 3.

I do hope I have inspired you to create your own album. Cal has lots of other tutorials available on her Facebook page, Paper Scissors, Story.

Hello and welcome to Aprils Tech 4 Stampers blog hop. I can’t believe that we are in April already, and I do hope you had a lovely Easter. This month’s theme is Something Square. I did think about a square card, but decided I wanted to take it further and created a square box frame.

Create A Box Frame

I first created this frame with Emma Goddard – The Coastal Crafter, at one of her online events and knew I would be recreating in the future. The box frame we created was a beautiful floral piece, which hangs on my lounge wall.

Score a piece of 12 x 12 Basic White cardstock at 3/4″, 1 1/2″, 2 1/4″, 3″, 9″, 9 3/4″, 10 1/2″ and 11 1/4″. Turn 90 degrees and repeat.

Score at 3 3/4″ and 8 1/4″ from the top down to the second line. Turn 180 degrees and repeat.

Cut along these score lines and diagonal out to the next horizontal score line. Cut tabs up to the next score line and along to the end. Repeat to leave a shape as below.

Fold and burnish all score lines. Fold in wider sides and adhere into place. Repeat with smaller ends and adhere tabs. This will give you a frame.

Decorating your Box Frame.

Trim a piece of Calypso Coral cardstock to 4 1/4″ x 4 1/4″. Cut a piece of Happy Forest Friends DSP (Designer Series Paper), to 4 1/8″ x 4 1/8″ and adhere to your Calypso Coral cardstock. Adhere inside your box frame.

Fussy cut a bear, fox, tree, tree stump, toadstool and bird from the dsp. Stamp several trees from the Happier Than Happy stamp set, using Old Olive and Mossy Meadow ink on Basic White cardstock. Die cut using the coordinating die. Arrange onto your frame using Multipurpose Adhesive and Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Using Old Olive ink, stamp your sentiment onto Basic White cardstock. Add several toadstools, using Calypso Coral ink. Die cut using a label from the Something Fancy Dies. Using a larger die to cut a label from Calypso Coral cardstock. Adhere together and onto your box frame.

Finish by adding Brushed Brass Butterflies.

I do hope you have found some inspiration with me. All products used are listed below and available to purchase from my online shop.

The post How To Create Box Frame for T4S Blog Hop appeared first on Leighsa's Loft.

Hello and welcome to Februarys Stamptastic Friends Blog Hop. This month’s theme is – Fancy Fold. I do love a fancy fold, though I do not create them as often as I should. There are so many options available when creating a fancy fold, book fold, stepper, gate fold and many more.

I have chosen to create a 3D box fold card. These cards give maximum impact and are easier to create than expected. The Dainty Delight stamp set and dies bundle, is fantastic and lends itself perfectly to this style of card. The papers I have used are the Dainty Delight DSP and are only available free during Sale-A-bration, ends 28th February 2023. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you would like further details.

Dainty Delight Fancy Fold card

Cut a piece of Blackberry Bliss cardstock, measuring 21cm x 14.9cm. Score on the 14.9cm side, portrait, at 8.5cm. Turn 90 degrees to left, anticlockwise, and score on the 21cm side, landscape, at 5cm, 10cm,15cm and 20cm. Cut down all four score lines to the 8.5cm score line. Trim off the small 1cm strip, above the 8.5cm score line. See diagram below.

Fold and burnish the 5, 10, 15 and 20cm score lines. Fold in half and adhere your 1cm strip to your last 5cm section. This will create a box. Fold down three sections along the 8.5cm score line, leaving one to create the back of your box card. Cut three strips of Blackberry Bliss cardstock, measuring 1cm x 7cm, and score at 1cm and 6 cm. Fold and burnish score lines and glue inside your box card, these will give you somewhere to adhere your flowers and foliage.

Cut three pieces of Dainty Flowers dsp, measuring 4.5cm x 8cm, and adhere to three bottom sections of your box card. Using a contrasting piece of dsp, cut three pieces measuring 4.5cm x 6cm and adhere to your three flaps. You can fix these into place with a Mini Glue Dot, if you wish. To cover the back, inside your box card, trim a piece of dsp to 4.5cm x 14.4cm.

Adding decoration

Stamp several of the smaller images onto Basic White cardstock, using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. Colour using Stampin’ Blends and die cut, using coordinating dies. I have used Blackberry Bliss, Daffodill Delight, Fresh Freesia, Old Olive and Starry Sky. Using some of the other Dainty Delight dies, cut flowers and foliage from Blushing Bride, Crushed Curry, Old Olive, Rich Razzleberry and Starry Sky cardstock. I also cut a couple from Vellum, for added interest.

Add your stamped and die cut flowers and foliage to your card strips using Mini Glue Dots, placing them on front and back. Allow these to overhang the edges, making sure it will still fit in your envelope. You can also place some flower on the back of the front of your box card to fill it out.

Finishing touches.

Using Blackberry Bliss ink, stamp your sentiment onto Basic White cardstock and trim to suit. Cut a length of Fresh Freesia Open Weave Ribbon and trim in half-length ways. fold in half and adhere to the reverse of your sentiment with Mini Glue Dots. Add your sentiment to the front of your box card using Stampin’ Dimensionals. To finish your card, add several Brushed Brass Butterflies.

I hope I have inspired you to get creative. All products used and listed below and available to purchase from my online shop.

Hello and welcome to this months Tech 4 Stampers Academy Blog Hop. This months theme is Sweet Treats and I just had to use the ‘Sweet Talk’ suite. This suite is adorable, great for valentines or that special someone, but also for birthdays and kids. I wanted to make a fun card, suitable for a BFF.

As a child I used to love Pop Up books and was amazed by the characters and images that seemed to jump out of the page. Today, I have recreated that joy in a card and hope that you too give it a go.

Sweet Treat Pop Up Card

Create an A6 card base, measuring 10.5cm x 14.9cm, from ‘Pool Party’ cardstock. Trim a piece of ‘Sweet Talk DSP’ (Designer Series Paper) to 9.5cm x 13.9cm and adhere to a ‘Blushing Bride’ cardstock layer, measuring 10cm x 14.4cm. Attach this to your card base using ‘Multipurpose Liquid Glue’.

Fussy cut three sweet packets and sweets from your DSP. You could choose lollipops or hearts, if preferred. Adhere to your card front using ‘Stampin’ Dimensionals’.

Die-cut a banner from ‘Pool Party’ cardstock and adhere to your card front using ‘Stampin Dimensionals’. Using the three hearts die, cut from ‘Blushing Bride’ cardstock and adhere to your banner with ‘Multipurpose Liquid Glue’.

Finish your card front by adding ‘Rhinestone Basic Jewels’.

Creating your inside

For your inside, cut a piece of ‘Basic White’ cardstock, measuring 20cm x 13.9cm. Score at 10cm on the 20cm edge. On the reverse, measure and mark at 7cm and 13cm on the 20cm. Draw faint lines top to bottom. Measure and mark along the lines at 3cm and 6cm, from the bottom. Cut between the two 3cm marks and the two 6cm marks. Score between your two cuts along the vertical lines. This will give you your pop up box.

Die-cut several large and small hearts from your DSP and fussy cut two sweets. Again you could use lollipops if preferred. Cover your pop up in dsp, measuring 6cm x 3cm. Cut strips of ‘Window Sheet’ to 5cm x 5mm, these will hold your images in your pop up box. Using ‘Mini Glue Dots’, adhere your hearts to the top of your ‘Window Sheet’ strips and the bottoms inside your pop up box. Place some to the back and some to the front, at different heights.

Finish your inside by adding a heart and a couple of sweets to the front of your box and a stamped heart in ‘Real Red’ ink.

All products used are listed below and available to purchase from my online shop.

Today I would like to share with you a Mini Jam Jar, that I have decorated for the Global Design Project #GDP331. This week we have been given the theme: Dots & Circles. This allows use to allow our creativity to go wild and interpret as we wish.

My Mini Jam Jar

Cut two strips of coordinating DSP (Designer Series Paper), measuring 3cm x 16.5cm and 2.5cm x 16.5cm. Using ‘Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive’, place the thinner strip in the middle of the thicker strip. Place ‘Stampin’ Seal+’ onto the rear and wrap around your ‘Mini Jam Jar’.

Stamp a set of peaches, from the ‘Sweet As A Peach’ stamp set, using ‘Calypso Coral’ ink and second generation stamping onto ‘Basic White’ cardstock. (Stamp onto a scrap of paper first to give a softer tone.) Using ‘Old Olive’ ink, stamp the branch with leaves image, also second generation. Die cut these out, using the coordinating ‘Peach Dies’. Adhere your peaches to your ‘Mini Jam Jar’, using ‘Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive’ and ‘Stampin’ Dimensionals’. Cut off two sets of leaves and adhere behind your peaches.

Stamp your sentiment onto ‘Basic White’ cardstock with ‘Balmy Blue’ ink. Die cut using the label die from the ‘Peach Dies’.

Die cut two scalloped circles, using the two largest scalloped circles from the ‘Layering Circles’ dies, from your chosen DSPs. Layer onto your ‘Mini Jam Jar’ lid using ‘Stampin’ Seal+’. Carefully tease down the edges and fix into place with ‘Mini Glue Dots’.

Finish by adding white bakers twine, from the ‘Bakers Twine Essentials Pack’, around your lid and tying with a bow.

Tech 4 Stampers Academy November Blog Hop – Anything But A Card

Hello and welcome. For todays blog post I am joining the Tech 4 Stampers Blog Hop, with a theme of Anything But A Card!

With Christmas being just around the corner, I want to share with you some gift packaging. These Whimsical Christmas Pillow boxes are so cute and really simple to create. Below I will show you how to recreate just one of my creations, but all where created along the same lines.

Whimsical Christmas Pillow Boxes

‘Tis The Season Pillow Box

Using the ‘Pretty Pillow Box Dies’, die cut your pillow box from ‘Mint Macaron’ cardstock. Randomly stamp the small Christmas tree image from the ‘Whimsical Trees’ stamp set, all over your die cut piece, using ‘Mint Macaron’ Ink. This creates a subtle tone on tone background. Fold your pillow box carefully, teasing the card into the desired shape. Fix together using ‘Mini Glue Dots’.

Using ‘Misty Moonlight’ ink, stamp your greeting onto ‘Basic White’ cardstock. Die cut using the fancy label die, from the ‘Pretty Pillow box Dies’. Adhere this to the front of your pillow box, using ‘TomBow Multipurpose Adhesive’ applied to the lower half only.

Fussy cut several baubles from the ‘Whismy & Wonder 12×12 Speciality Designer Series Paper (SDSP)’ and a bow. Adhere these onto and behind your fancy label, using a mix of ‘Tombow Multi Purpose Adhesive’ and ‘Stampin’ Dimensionals’. This gives great dimension to your pillow box.

For the finishing touch, add a few ‘Rhinestone Basic Jewels.

I do hope you have enjoyed my project. All products used are listed below and available to purchase through my online shop.
