Good Wednesday morning my fellow stampers. We’re halfway through the week and on the downhill to the weekend. Hope you are starting to make some plans for something fun. We had an awesome time at the beach yesterday. The water was beautiful, it was a bit hazy, but still a wonderful day. I went for my usual walk along the water looking for shells and sea glass. Our day got cut a little short by a thunderstorm that came rolling in really fast. Everyone got called out of the water as soon as the lightening and thunder started. It was a great day spent with my daughter, nephew, niece and her 2 boys.
For today I tried something new called the Partial Die Cut card. I’m really liking this and can’t wait to try it again with different dies. Here’s my card for today.
I played along with the Watercooler Wednesday Challenge #284. Here is their theme.
I started by adhering a panel of Bumblebee cardstock to a Just Jade mat using Stampin’ Seal. On the Bumblebee card base I stamped the large sunflower image from the Stampin’ Up! Celebrate Sunflowers Cling Stamp Set in Cinnamon Cider Ink. I immediately sprinkled it with my Clear Stampin’ Emboss Powder and set it using my Heat Tool. I placed the matted panel over part of the sunflower and lined up the die from the Sunflower Dies. I tacked it on the panel, so it wouldn’t move, using washi tape. I cut the 1/2 of sunflower out of the panel, then embossed the panel using my Wrapped in Texture Embossing Folder.
I adhered a strip of the Flowers For Every Season Designer Series paper to the left side of the card base using Stampin’ Seal. I stamped the sentiment from the Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set in Cinnamon Cider Ink on a Whisper White panel. I cut the sentiment into a banner using the Triple Banner Punch. I cut a strip of Just Jade cardstock into a banner using the Triple Banner Punch and adhered the sentiment to it using Stampin’ Seal. I cut the banner down to 3 1/2″.
I adhered the matted embossed panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals, making sure the sunflower lined up with the die cut. I adhered the sentiment banner to the top of the panel using Stampin Dimensionals. I added a few Misty Moonlight 2020-2022 In-Color Enamel Dots to the card front.
On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Peaceful Moments Cling Stamp Set in Cinnamon Cider Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel. I adhered a strip of the Flowers For Every Season DSP to the side of the panel using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Just Jade mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Bumblebee card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped part of the large sunflower image from the Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set in Cinnamon Cider Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of Flowers For Every Season DSP 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!!
