Thinking of Springtime | Inspirations Blog Hop March 2021

Welcome to the STAMPING INKspirations BLOG HOP for March 2021.  This month we are focusing on celebrating Easter & Springtime!  

For today’s project, I am featuring an image from the Fine Arts Floral Designer Series Paper.  This is a very simple project idea and one you can certainly recreate with any of your own collection of patterned and print paper.  Here’s a quick video demonstration to take you through the process.

My project could easily be CASED, that means Copy And Selectively Edit, with the same products or other similar ones.  I share the full tutorial with you down below in the post, so if you need the materials & measures they are easily found.  You can make your very own projects following this idea, all you need is:

  • Cardstock

  • Patterned paper

  • Sentiment stamp

  • Embellishments

Now that you have visited with me, and I hope my project may have inspired you, it’s time to send you along to the next blog with Anne Marie Hile.  Please leave me and the other paper crafters comments on our posts.  We just love to know what you think of our ideas.

Instructions:

Fussy Cut or Die Cut Your Focal Embellishment of Choice

  • Here I used my paper snips to cut out the floral print from the patterned paper.

  • If you have a coordinating die for the image you choose to use you could certainly use your die-cutting machine to create it.

Add the Patterned Paper

Add Embellishment

  • I used dimensionals to add my floral image.

             Mini Dimensionals [144108], Stampin’ Seal [152813], Dimensionals [104430]

 

Measurements:

  • Card Base 4 ¼" x 9 ½" scored at 3" and 7 ¼"
  • Inside Liner 4" x 4"
  • Patterned Paper 2 ¾" x 4"
  • 2” Circle Punch SCRAP - coordinating color
  • 2 ¼” Circle Punch SCRAP - match card base color
  • Butterfly Die SCRAP - coordinating color
  • Butterfly Die SCRAP - coordinating color
  • Sentiment Label 1 ½” x 3 ¼” 

 

Instructions:

  1. With the card base open, and the narrowest scored section on the right, slide the 2 ¼" circle punch all the way in from the top of the card, lining up the score line on the right in the center of the circle. Then punch out the circle.
  2. Adhere the 4" x 4" square inside the card – make sure to not place any adhesive on the portion that overlaps the circle opening (or you will have adhesive on the back of your card).
  3. Punch a 2 ¼" circle from Smoky Slate cardstock (same as your card base color).
  4. Close the card and then adhere the 2 ¼" punched circle in the “half” circle that exposes the liner panel. I added my adhesive to the white liner and then placed the circle down. 
  5. Punch a 2" circle from Pool Party cardstock, layer it on the 2 ¼" circle.
  6. Using the Fluttering dies, die cut the embossed butterfly from Calypso Coral, and the solid butterfly from Basic Black.  Adhere the butterflies together. Then add to the center of your circles.
  7. Close the card and adhere the Designer Paper to the left panel.
  8. With the label die from the Fluttering Dies, and with a 1 ½” x 3 ¼” piece of Smoky Slate, create the sentiment label.  
  9. Die-cut once lining up the die with the top and side of the cardstock. [It’s okay that the die is larger than the cardstock.]  
  10. Then die-cut again, so that you have all four corners matching.
  11. Stamp the greeting in Black ink.  Add to the card.
  12. Stamp our inside greeting.
