I created this card to illustrate for you a new Stampin’ UP! stamp and die set named Here Together bundle. Stamping and creating projects are a big part of how I relax during a busy work week. My goal for this creation was to show you how to integrate different products.
I decided I wanted to use some bright and cheerful like the Sunshine & Rainbows DSP from the Sale-A-Bration. This allowed me to demonstrate how you can interchange stamps sets and Designer Series Paper (DSP) with each other to create really beautiful greeting cards.
Here for you Collection of products
The Here For You Collection is only around for a short time until the new Annual catalog is introduced, I think in May. My favorite part if this Collection are the new skin tone blender pens that were introduced at the same time. Good news the blender pens will be in the Annual catalog and this is so fantastic because we really needed skin tone blender pens. The other part of the collection is a really fantastic DSP pack that is entirely Basic White and Basic Black.
step by step instructions
Below is a list of step by step instructions for creating this card.
- Basic White Thick Cardstock, cut 11 x 4 1/4″, scored at 5 1/2″ for the card base.
- Basic White Thick Cardstock, cut 4″ x 5 1/4″, stamp sentiment in upper center and adhere to inside of card base.
- SAB DSP Sunshine and Rainbows (retired), cut 4″ x 5 1/4″, adhere to card front.
- Coordinating SAB DSP Sunshine and Rainbows (retired), cut 2″ x 4 1/4″ adhere to bottom of card front flush with edges of Basic White Thick Cardstock used as the card base and cut a second piece 1″ x 4 1/4″ adhere to inside of card base again flush to the bottom edges of the card base.
- Basic White Cardstock a piece big enough to stamp the two hands making a heart in Bermuda Bay, small heart in Magenta Madness, and the tiny sentiment also in Magenta Madness and to cut out one of the “you matter” die cut. Adhere the small heart to the hands with a glue dot or liquid adhesive. Using dimensional adhere the two hands to the upper part of the card front.
- Using SAB DSP Sunshine and Rainbows (retired) corresponding DSP to cut another die cut of the “you matter” and adhere to the Basic White die cut just slightly to the left providing extra dimension. Adhere that to the bottom of the card front as shown along with the additional sentiments mentioned in item 5. above.
- Using a scrap piece of Magenta Madness and Crushed Curry cardstock stamp each with the small heart stamp in ink that is the same color as the card stock, then die cut two small hearts and adhere them to card front using glue dots to layer the two hearts for each place and then add to card using a dimensional.
- Embellish with the Iridescent Rhinestones, I used 3 of them. And your card is ready to brighten someone’s day!
