Fragrant Layers for Global Design Project Color Challenge

To see photos correctly, please click “read on blog.”

This week’s Global Design project is a fun, color challenge, using Granny Apple Green, Secret Sea, and Melon Mambo. I began with a Secret Sea card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″. This deep blue color is great, because, like black, it makes the other colors pop.

Fragrant Layers

 

Next, I used a Fragrant Layers Die to create a stencil, which I placed on Basic White Cardstock, 4″ X 5 1/4″. Then, I used a Blending Brush and Secret Sea Ink to make a background. Before gluing the layer to the card base, I sprayed the background with Secret Sea Ink from a Stampin’ Blend.

 

The flowers, leaves, and blossoms were cut from Basic White Cardstock with Fragrant layers Dies. I used Blending Brushes, with Melon Mambo Ink and Granny Apple Green Ink, to color the flowers and leaves, and the blossoms were left white. Then, I glued them in place, matching the background design.

 

The sentiment, “just a note,” is from the Fragrant Layers Stamp Set. I stamped it in Secret Sea Ink, used a Fragrant Layers Die for cutting, and attached it with Dimensionals. To complete the design, I added Iridescent Pearls to the flower centers.

Cutest Crew for Global Design Project

To see photos correctly, please click “read on blog.”

For this week’s Global Design Project, we get to CASE a fun design by Leah Dixon. We’d love to see what you create, so please share it on social media, and tag it #gdp536.

 

I began by stamping my favorite, little birds from the upcoming stamp set, Cutest Crew. I stamped them in Pecan Pie Ink on Basic White Cardstock, and used a Stylish Shapes, circle die, for cutting. Then, I used Cutest Crew Dies to cut the birds from upcoming, Garden Poetry Designer Paper, and glued them on top of the stamped birds. It’s a perfect fit; you can see their eyes peeking through the holes!

Cutest Crew birthday card

 

Next, I cut three strips, 1″ X 4″, from the same Garden Poetry Designer Paper. Then, I cut three strips, 1/8″ larger, from Wood Grain Wonders Paper, and glued them to the back of the Garden Poetry strips. The strips were glued to Basic White Cardstock, 4″ X 5 1/4″, which I embossed with the Dotted Circles Embossing Folder. And, this embossed layer was glued to a Pecan Pie card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″.

 

After attaching the circle of birds with Dimensionals, I stamped “Happy Birthday,” from the Cutest Crew Stamp Set. I stamped it in Pecan Pie Ink, used a smaller, Stylish Shapes circle die for cutting, and attached it with Dimensionals. To complete the designed, I added three, 2025-2027 In Color Flat Pearls.

Cutest Crew Baby Card for Global Design Project

To see photos correctly, please click “read on blog.”

This week’s Global Design Project is a theme: baby. It was especially fun to make this card today, because we just found out Lily is going to be a big sister! We’d love to see your baby cards. Please share with social media, and use the tag #gdp535.

 

I began by cutting the adorable, Cutest Crew birds in four colors of Subtle Cardstock: Lemon Lolly, Bubble Bath, Soft Sea Foam, and Pool Party. Then, I glued them to Thick Basic White Cardstock, cut with the 1″ square, Stylish Shapes die.

Cutest Crew Square for Baby

 

Thinking, small and square, I cut a square card base from Thick Basic White Cardstock, 8 1/2″ X 4 1/4″, folded at 4 1/4″. Then, I cut Basic White Cardstock, 4″ X 4″, and decorated the corners with Basic White Cardstock, cut with a Beautifully Celebrated Die, and glued it to the card base. Don’t you love this die-cut?  

 

Next, I stamped “Welcome little one,” in Memento Black Ink on Basic White Cardstock, used a Perennial Postage Die for cutting, and attached it with Dimensionals. The sentiment is from Storybook Friends, a retired Stamp Set. To complete the card, I attached the birds with Dimensionals, and added three Rainbow Dots in matching colors.

Easter Basket Bunny for Global Design Project

To see photos correctly, please click “read on blog.”

This week’s Global Design Project challenge is a sketch, perfect for the Easter Basket bunny’s background. I began with the bunny and his carrot, stamping them in Memento Black Ink on Basic White Cardstock. Then, I used their Easter Basket Dies for cutting, and added a bit of color with Stampin’ Blends in three colors: Petal Pink, Pumpkin Pie, and Granny Apple Green.

Easter Bunny in an Arch

 

The background was created with the second largest Everyday Arches Die and Lovely Blossoms Designer Paper. After cutting, it was glued to a Basic Beige card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″. I added vines to the arch by using a Beautiful Pumpkin Die to cut Old Olive Cardstock.

 

“Happy Easter” is from the Easter Basket Stamp Set. I stamped it in Crumb Cake Ink on Basic White Cardstock, and used a Fragrant Layers Die for cutting. I used the same die to make a cut from Basic Beige Cardstock for the frame, and glued them in place. The last step was attaching the Easter bunny and carrot with Dimensionals.

 

Here is the sketch. Now it’s your turn to have fun using it as inspiration. Don’t forget to share your creation on social media, and tag it #gdp534.

Simply Beautiful for Global Design Project

To see photos correctly, please click “read on blog.”

This week’s Global Design Project is a color challenge, using Strawberry Slush, Petal Pink, and Pretty Peacock. I hope you’ll be inspired by our designers, then create your own project. And, remember to tag it #gdp533.

 

The Simply Beautiful Dies make fantastic flowers, and I used seven dies to create one large, and two smaller, flowers.

Simply Beautiful Flowers

 

The petals were cut from 2025-2027 In Color Designer Paper in Strawberry Slush, and Brushed With Beauty Designer Paper in Petal Pink. The stamens were cut from Strawberry Slush and Petal Pink Cardstock.

 

The background is Basic White Cardstock, 4 ” X 5 1/4″, stamped with leaves and the sentiment in Pretty Peacock Ink. The leaves and “to the happy couple” are from the Simply Beautiful Stamp Set. After stamping, I used the Gathering Leaves Embossing Folder for texture. This layer was glued to a Pretty Peacock card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″.

 

To complete the design with some sparkle, I added Strawberry Slush Gems to the flowers.

Beautiful Motifs for Global Design Project

To see photos correctly, please click “read on blog.”

For this week’s Global Design Project, we get to CASE the talented, Marga Bultena. We’d love to see what you create, so please share it on social media, and tag it #gdp532.

 

I loved everything about Marga’s card, so it was fun to CASE. I used the same Cloud Cover card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″, which I layered with Cloud Cover cardstock, cut with the largest Branching Out Die. After cutting, I embossed it with the Forever Plaid Embossing Folder, and attached it to the card base with Dimensionals.

Beautiful Motifs

 

Next, I used a Stylish Shapes Die to cut a circle from Basic White Cardstock. Then, I used a Beautiful Motifs Die to cut a branch from the circle. This is an unusual die, because it’s only a partial cut.

 

After gluing the white cutout circle to the plaid layer, I used two more Beautiful Motifs Dies to cut foliage from Lost Lagoon Cardstock and Highland Heather Cardstock, and glued them in place.

 

“Happy Birthday” is from the Lovely Arrangements Stamp Set. I stamped it in Lost Lagoon Ink on Basic White Cardstock, used a Lovely Arrangements Die for cutting, and attached it with Dimensionals. Three, Iridescent Pearls were added as a final touch.
