Festive Berries Stamp Collection

Hello crafters!

Here is a fabulous Christmas card made at our regular craft workshops.

This card was made using Phill's Sentimentally Yours 'Festive Berries' Stamp Collection.

We have also used Memento Inks, Distress Inks, Archival Inks or Distress Oxides.  The Sue Wilson craft dies are: Poinsettia Additions, Twinkle Star Frame and Pine Cone & Greenery.

Stage 1 - cut out all the layers and die cuts needed for your card

• Base Card - 21cm x 17.5cm
• 1st Layer (Kraft Card) - 20cm x 16.5cm
• 2nd Layer (Cream) - 19.5cm x 16cm
• 3rd Layer (Kraft Card) - 17.5cm x 14.5cm
• TWINKLE STAR FRAME (CREAM)
• 4th Layer (Kraft Card) - 11.5cm x 8cm
• 5th Layer (Cream) - 11cm x 7.5cm

Stage 2 - using three different ink colours from the same brand (e.g. Memento in brown, red and green) create your Festive Montage on the corners of the Cream layers.  Build up the pattern with the 'Festive Berries Flourishes A5 Stamp Set.

Stage 3 - choose your sentiment for your topper.  Here we have used the 'Festive Berries Elegant A5 Stamp Set'.  If you wish to use clear embossing over your sentiment then you need to use a Distress Oxide Ink Pad.  Otherwise use your chosen colour.

Stage 4 - Assemble your card layers, using foam tape where you wish.  Add your Poinsettia Flowers and Pine Cone/Greenery.

Stage 5 - add some bling if you wish!  Here we have also used Pearl PVA on the Twinkle Star Frame in Berry Red and added some twine to match the Kraft Card.

Distress Oxides and Splatterlicious Stamps

Hello crafters!

Here is a card made at our regular workshops.

This card was made using Phill's 'Splatterlicious' Stamp Collection with the Ranger Distress Oxide Ink Pads.

We have also used Sue Wilson Dies; Succulent Garden and Bold Scrolled Vine.

The colour on the main sample card is Iced Spruce with Broken China.  The Stamps used are; Splatterlicious 'A5 Inspirational Sentiments', 'Large Rectangle Frame and 'A5 Textures'.  As always we've included cards made using different colours and stamps. (all these cards have been made by crafters at our workshops!)

Stage 1 - Cut all the layers and die cuts needed to make your card in Bright White card.

• Base Card -19cm x 16.5cm
• 1st Layer (inked) - 18.5cm x 16cm
• 2nd Layer (stamped) - 17cm x 14.5cm
• 3rd Layer (white) - 14cm x 11.5cm
• 4th Layer (inked) - 12cm x 9.5cm
• 5th Layer is the stamped rectangle frame cut out

Stage 2 - Choose your two coordinating Distress Oxide Colours. There are so many gorgeous colours that blend and stamp beautifully!  Using a Smoothie apply your chosen colours to the edges of the layers as in the photo.  Here with have inked Layer 1 and 4 and used the opposite colour in opposite corners.

Stage 3 - Stamp your chosen pattern onto the 2nd Layer.  Here our crafter has used a single stamp from the 'A5 Textures Stamp Set' and repeated the image around the edges.  The Rubber background stamps also work really well on this layer!

Stage 4 - Colour the flower petals in the two coordinating colours.   Shape your flowers as you wish, assemble them and leave to dry. Add colour to the Bold Scrolled Vine leaves if you wish.

Stage 5 - Stamp the Large Rectangle Frame onto a scrap piece of bright white card and cut.  Here our crafter has used both Distress Oxide Ink colours, which gives a stunning finish!

Stage 6 - Stamp your chosen sentiment into the middle of the Large Rectangle Frame.  (You could also use a banner across the frame)

Stage 7 - Assemble all the layers, using foam tape where you wish to lift the layers.   Place your leaves and flowers where you wish and add some bling!
