Loveliest Tree Card

Using the stamp sets Loveliest Tree and Textured Timbe,  I create this card using the Triple Time stamping technique. Below is the instructions how to do the technique.

You also see different desigines on YouTube and Pinterest.                                                                                                                        

  Card Measurement 

1.First Layer card base any colour cardstock  14.8cm x 21cm scored at 10.5cm  

 2. Second Layer Basic White cardstock to measure 10 x 14.3cm

3. Third Layer as per card base  as base card 8.5 x 12.8cm 

 4. Fourth Layer Basic White cardstock 8 x 12.3cm

 5. Fifth Layer as per card base cardstock  6.5 x  10.8cm*

 6. Sixth and last layer Basic White cardstock 6 x 10.3cm

Instructions:

     Use low stick tape ( to temporarily tack down the two smallest layers of the Whisper White cardstock on top of  the largest Whisper White cardstock, making sure that they are evenly spaced

     Use a clear block for easier stamping. using a stamp of your choice, randomly stamp on top of all three layers while they are stuck together, as shown in the photo.

    Don't worry about any white gaps you may see now where the images didn't stamp up to the edge. You won't see these at all later on.  But to reduce the white gaps and to get a good image rock the clear block slightly when stamping around the edges of the layers.

 Assembling the Card:

Gently pull  apart the stamped Whisper White cardstock. 

1.Layer the 8.5.x 12.8cm coloured  cardstock  onto the 10.cm x 14.3cm stamped Basic White cardstock. 

2. Layer the 12.3cm x 8cm  stamped  Basic White cardstock onto the 12.8cm x 8.5cm

colourd cardstock, 

 3. Layer the 12.3cm x 8cm stamped basic White cardstock onto 12.8cm x 8.5cm coloured

cardstock,

 4. Layer the coloured 10.8cm x 6.5cm  cardstock onto the 12.8cm x 8.5cm Basic White

cardstock, 

5. Place the last layer on to the 10.8cm x 6.5cm coloured cardstock 

Then attach the layered pieces to the card base.

I will be back soon with another card and instustions.

Gift Box Bag

With Easter fast approaching , My granddaughter asked me if I could make some small Easter gift bags for her friends and her staff at work. to can make these Bags I use 6 x 6ins or 12 x 12ins Designer Series Paper from Stampin' Up!

For the gift bags you see in the photos I used The Designer Series Paper 12 x12ins called Easter Joy, I cuting the paper into 6 x 6 ins pieces, you will need two 6 x 6ins of the same patten to make the bag.

I learned how to make these bags on Jackie Bolhuis YouTube Video to view Video click on the link below.
