Good Saturday morning my stamping friends. How has everyone’s weekend started off? Does anyone have plans for Father’s Day tomorrow? My daughter and I are making my husband a big brunch. My niece, her husband and boys are coming over to join us. We started doing this a couple years ago and he loves it.
If any of you saw my post on Thursday for our blog hop, you saw that I had an oops. I used the wrong color. I had made another card to use, but I was told it was ok the colors were close enough. Here’s the other card I made using the right colors. My older little nephew graduated from his elementary school and moved to the intermediate school, so I wanted to make him a card too. He’s 9, so it’s a little harder since he’s too old for cutesy things, but not old enough for grown up things yet.
I played along with Watercooler Wednesday Challenge #276. Here is their theme.
I started by cutting a panel of Just Jade and Pretty Peacock cardstock using the Best Plaid Builder Dies. I adhered the Pretty Peacock panel first onto a Pear Pizzazz card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
I adhered the Just Jade cut panel on top of the Pretty Peacock panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I wrapped a piece of the Just Jade 1/4″ Ribbon around the panel tied a knot and adhered the card front to a Pear Pizzazz card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I cut a panel of Whisper White cardstock using the 2nd largest die from the Stitched So Sweetly Dies. I stamped the 2 sentiments from the Stampin’ Up! Best Year Cling Stamp Set in Just Jade Ink on the cut panel. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals and added a few Just Jade 2020-2022 In-Color Enamel Dots to the sentiment.
On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! So Sentimental Cling Stamp Set in Just Jade Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel. When you cut the cardstock using the Best Plaid Builder Dies you are left with a lot of squares. I decorated the inside of the card using these squares adhering them down with Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Pretty Peacock mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Pear Pizzazz card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I adhered a strip of the Forever Greenery Designer Series Paper to the envelope front and a panel to the envelope flap.
Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!
