Good Tuesday morning my stamping friends. How has everyone’s week started off? Are you all still working from home and keeping Social Distancing? I have to work today, but I’m all by myself in the office so I feel pretty safe. Can you believe it’s the last day of March already? I feel like I lost a whole month.
I made a Wedding/Anniversary/Birthday card for you today. I left the sentiment wide open so I can use it for anything I need. Here’s today’s card.
I played along with Paper Craft Crew Challenge #375. They had a Horizontal Sketch Challenge this week. Here is their sketch.
I also joined in with The Paper Players Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge #484. Here is their board. I covered 3 different directions starting at the top left corner.
I started by embossing a Soft Seafoam card front using the Scripty 3D Embossing Folder. I adhered the card front to a Soft Seafoam card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I cut a panel of Parisian Blossoms Specialty Designer Series Paper using the Stitched So Sweetly Die and adhered it to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
On a panel of Shimmery White cardstock I stamped the cake image from the Stampin’ Up! Happy Birthday To You Cling Stamp Set, which is a Sale-A-Bration item, in Smoky Slate Ink. I colored the image in using my Petal Pink, Purple Posy, Light Smoky Slate and Soft Seafoam Stampin’ Blends Markers. I fussy cut the image out using my Paper Snips. I adhered the cake image to the die cut DSP using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
On a small panel of Shimmery White cardstock I stamped the cake image from the Happy Birthday To You stamp set in Smoky Slate Ink making sure to get mainly the one flower. I colored the flower in using my Petal Pink and Soft Seafoam Stampin’ Blends Markers and fussy cut it using my Paper Snips. I adhered a piece of Petal Pink 1/4″ Metallic Edge Ribbon to the card front using Glue Dots. I adhered the fussy cut flower over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Champagne Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front.
On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Forever Blossoms Cling Stamp Set in Smoky Slate Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel. I stamped the cake image from the Happy Birthday To You stamp set in Soft Seafoam Ink, stamping off once, over the sentiment. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Soft Seafoam mat using Snail and then to the inside of the Soft Seafoam card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped the cake image from the Happy Birthday To You stamp set in Smoky Slate Ink on the envelope front. I colored the image in using my Petal Pink, Purple Posy and Soft Seafoam Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of the Parisian Blossoms Specialty DSP to the envelope flap.

APRIL 2020 PAPER PUMPKIN: MY WONDERFUL FAMILY
SUBSCRIBE MARCH 11-APRIL 10
At Paper Pumpkin, we believe in making a difference—especially when it comes to helping you build relationships through papercrafting. For April, we created a fun, family appreciation themed card kit that would make it easy for you to share your hearts with those you love most: mom, dad, daughter, son, sister, and brother. April’s kit even includes Mother’s Day and Father’s Day sentiments, giving you the perfect way to show your appreciation for beloved parents on their special days with a beautiful, handmade card.
One more thing about this “fam-tastic” kit: The Paper Pumpkin team knows that everyone’s clan is unique. With that in mind, we provided sentiments that would include anyone in your life who feels like family; for instance, “brothers” and “sisters” who have helped you along the journey of life.
