SugarPea Designs: Create Your Own Sunshine

 Hey everyone! Stephanie here with you today for SugarPea Designs with my last Summer project in the books! I mean... School is starting next week for me (I'm an ESL teacher in Quebec, Canada) and I'm definitely ready for cooler weather and cozy sweaters!

So to celebrate the last bit of sunshine, I used the new Waves Of Love , Sunshine Sentiments and SugarCut-Sunshine Word (see what I did here?! LOL).

First, I wanted to create a pier scene and started stamping the different elements from the Waves Of Love set onto a piece of coloring cardstock.

Next, I colored everything with my alcohol markers, roughly drawing a pier on the right side of the panel, to support the bucket of fish flying into the ocean.

After that, I ran the panel into my diecutting machine with the largest stitched rectangle from the SugarCut-Card Front Element Builder III set and adhered it to my A2 cardbase, before adding a sentiment from the Sunshine Sentiments embossed in white and three layers of the SugarCut-Sunshine Word, that one being mounted with foam tape for more dimension!

It definitely feels good to say goodbye to Summer in style, don't you think? ;-)

LDRS Creative: Friends make happiness bloom!

 

Hey everyone!

Stephanie with you today for LDRS Creative with a fun, quick, and EASY project featuring the Summer collection once again!

I used the Folk Art A2 Cover Plate Die to highlight the wonderful patterns of the Painted Garden paperpack.  Believe me, this card took no time at all to make!

First, I created a regular A2 cardbase, which I covered with a sheet of patterned paper from the 

Painted Garden paperpack. No need for dimension, because that's actually the next step!

 

Next, I diecut twice the Folk Art A2 Cover Plate Die; once in red-ish cardstock, then another time in baby blue cardstock. After that, I sprayed the baby blue panel with liquid adhesive and glued it on top of the red panel, but slightly off-setting it so that we'd see it through.

 

Once that was done, I added tiny bits of foam tape everywhere I could behind the diecut panel to give more dimension when it would adhere the pattern paper. 

 

Finally, I added a sentiment from the Corner Garden set embossed in white on a piece of navy cardstock with foam tape right in the center. And that was it!

I hope you like it and will try it with all the Folk Art goodness in store!

SugarPea Designs: Two CAS cards!

 Hey everyone!

I'm stopping by to share these two cards that I totally forgot to blog about over here (oops!) for SugarPea Designs!

The first one features the new Salty Seagulls stamp set that I simply adore!

The second one features the Captain Of My Heart set that was a complement to last year's Stamptember event by Simon Says Stamp.

Lots of masking was involved!

Hope you like them!
