Bunch of Blossoms Birthday

It’s time to get out the washi tape again! I’m really trying to use it rather than hoard it – at 5 yards per roll and at about 6 inches per card, there’s enough for 10 cards per roll. Coupled with the beautiful sentiments in Bunch of Blossoms, it’s easy to whip up a quick, pretty card.

Stampin' Up! Bunch of Blossoms and Floral Boutique Designer Washi tape

This is a super easy card to make – I used two coordinating washi tapes, both from the Floral Boutique Designer washi tape set, and added a strip of each to my piece of whisper white folding the edges under the card. I mounted this onto a base of night of navy. The sentiment comes from Bunch of Blossoms – love the typeface – and I’ve stamped it in melon mambo. I cut this out with a punch and cut a mat for it with the circles dies also in night of navy. It’s popped up with dimensionals.

For the envelope, I added a strip of each of the washi tape rolls to the front, trimming the edges right up to the envelope. I’m not sure if it would make it through the mail though – I’ll have to do a test to find out. Either way, it coordinates nicely with the card.

See you tomorrow,

Designer Tin of Cards with Washi

I mentioned recently that I wanted to use more washi and so this card started with the washi tape. In this case, it was from two suites – I have the floral boutique designer washi tape and the Pop of Pink designer washi tape. And I also wanted to use my Designer Tin of Cards set which so far hadn’t been inked up.

Stampin' Up! Designer Tin of Cards

I read on Pootles’ site recently that on the incentive trip, Pam Morgan demoed the Floral Boutique DSP and suggested treating the navy as a neutral – “navy and white and a pop of bright” and I thought that was an excellent idea. So after I’d put down a piece of the Floral Boutique DWT (Designer Washi Tape), I added a strip of the Pop of Pink DWT. I made both pieces long enough to wrap around the whisper white top layer. Well actually, the first piece wasn’t and I reclaimed that and used it on the envelope. Waste not, want not!

Next I stamped out the beautifully written sentiment from the Designer Tin of Cards set in night of navy on a piece of scrap which I cropped with a circle framelit. I cut another same sized circle from night of navy cardstock so that I could layer them.The night of navy one is glued to the card whereas the whisper white circle is popped up with dimensionals. To continue the pop of pink, I added three enamel shapes in melon mambo to coordinate with the washi tape.

To continue the idea of a pop of bright, I used melon mambo for the sentiment inside the card – this is from one of my favourite sets, Watercolor Wishes.

See you tomorrow,
