BBQ Master Apron

This is another card made with the BBQ Master stamp set. The original idea came from another demo, Leena Girsa's video. She used the arches to make her apron. It would make a great masculine Father's Day card or Birthday card for the grill master in your life. I love even the little utensils. You could use Silver Foil, but I used the Lunar Lustre. I didn't have the Gray Granite Ribbon, but I've ordered it since.

My instructions after watching her video and making the card:

Stamp Set: BBQ Master

Cardstock: Poppy Parade, Basic Black, Basic White, Cajun Craze, Lunar Lustre, Cute as a Bug DSP

Ink: Memento Black, Poppy Parade, Cajun Craze, Crushed Curry

Other: Stampin’ Cut and Emboss Machine, Everyday Arches, BBQ Master Dies, Dauber, Pencil, Ruler, Multipurpose Liquid Glue, Stampin’ Dimensionals, Glue Dots, Moody Palette Glossy Dots, Ribbon of choice

1. The base of the card is Basic Black cardstock cut at 4-1/4” x 11 and scored at 2-3/4” x 5-1/2”.

2. Poppy Parade cardstock is cut at 2-5/8” x 4-1/8” (2 times).

3. On the top Poppy Parade, ink up the fire stamp with Poppy Parade ink (tone on tone) and randomly stamp all over. Adhere it to the top of the fold and the other below the fold. No need to stamp it as it won't show.

4. To make the apron, cut the Cute as a Bug DSP at 4” x 5-1/4” and Basic Black cardstock at 4” x 5-1/4” and glue together, leaving no border. With a pencil and ruler, measure 1-1/4” at the top on each side. Then measure 2” from the top edge on each side and make pencil marks to know where to die cut. Take the 4^th largest Everyday Arches die and lay it at the marks to die-cut the apron at your pencil marks.

5. To make the pocket, use the 4^th from the smallest arch die using the DSP. Cut down to 1-3/4”. Ink up the sentiment “to the Grill Master” with Memento Black Ink.

6. Die-cut your utensils from the Lunar Lustre or Silver Foil. Die-cut the mittens and sauces with Poppy Parade cardstock and ink. Add Cajun Craze to one of the sauce bottles. Add a strip of Seal at the back of the pocket to attach your utensils, etc. Then add Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back to attach to the apron.

7. For the inside: Cut Poppy Parade cardstock at 4-1/8” x 4-1/8” and the Basic White at 4” x 4”. Ink up a sentiment “Happy Birthday” or “Happy Father’s Day” with black ink.

8. Ink up the grill with Poppy Parade ink and stamp at the bottom left of the 4” x 4” Basic White cardstock.

9. Ink up the flames with Crushed Curry ink. With a Dauber, add Poppy Parade ink at the bottom. Adhere to the inside of the grill.

10. Attach four Dots to the apron. Attach 4 inches of ribbon with Glue Dots to the back side of the apron.

All Aflutter in Hydrangea Hue

This is a card I made last month for my monthly swap with other demonstrators in my Facebook Group (SASS - Sunshine & Smiles Swap Group). We are always looking for other demonstrators to join us, so let me know if you might be interested. We send our card individually to each other by the end of each month and there is usually a theme. The theme this month was 'Something New from the Preorder" so I chose the stamp set All Aflutter that will be available on May 5, 2026, and it comes with a punch as a bundle. I also used the new Hydrangea Hue ink, ribbon, and In-Color Butterflies. I used the Phrases & Frame Dies as well as the 2026-2029 In-Color 12' x 12" Designer Series Paper.

Stamp Set: All Aflutter
Cardstock: Hydrangea Hue, Basic White, 2026-2028 Painted Patterns DSP
Ink: Hydrangea Hue
Other: Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine, Phrases & Frames Dies, All Aflutter Punch, 2026-2028 In-Color Butterflies, 3/8” Hydrangea Hue Bordered Ribbon, Multipurpose Liquid Glue, Stampin’ Dimensionals, Mini Glue Dots

1.     The base of the card is Hydrangea Hue cardstock cut at 5-1/2” x 8-1/2” and scored at 4-1/4” in the middle.
2.    The second layer is Hydrangea Hue Painted Patterns DSP (Polka Dots) cut at 4” x 5-1/4” and adhered to the front.
3.    Die-cut a Basic White frame and Hydrangea Hue frame using the die from the Phrases & Frames Dies.
4.    Ink up the sentiment “Fluttering by to say hi” in Hydrangea Hue at the bottom of the Basic White insert. Adhere to the center of the card with Multipurpose Liquid Glue. Attach the Hydrangea Hue frame around it with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
5.    On a scrap of Basic White, ink up the butterfly stamp with Hydrangea Hue ink and stamp it, and then punch the butterflies out with the All Aflutter punch. Attach them with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
6.    Attach 3 of the 2026-2028 In-Color Butterflies embellishments.

7.    Tie a faux bow with the Hydrangea Hue ribbon and adhere with a Glue Dot at the bottom of the frame.

Rolling Waves

Stamp Set: Rolling Waves

Cardstock: Secret Sea, Coastal Cabana, Crumb Cake, Calypso Coral, Basic White

Ink: Secret Sea, Crumb Cake, Coastal Cabana

Other: Stampin’ Cut and Emboss Machine, Rolling Waves Dies, Blending Brush, Wink of Stella, Paper Snips, Multipurpose Liquid Glue, and Stampin’ Dimensionals

1. The base of the card is Secret Sea cardstock cut at 5-1/2” x 8-1/2” and scored at 4-1/4” in the middle.

2. The Crumb Cake cardstock is cut at 4” x 5-1/4”.

3. The Coastal Cabana Cardstock is cut at 4” x 4”. Ink up the large stamp with Coastal Cabana ink and stamp it onto the Coastal Cabana cardstock at an angle. Stamp first and second generations. Use the single die to die cut at the angle of the Coastal Cabana cardstock after stamping.

4. Die cut two different waves and foamy dies from Basic White cardstock. Use the Blend Brush on the largest wave using Coastal Cabana ink. Adhere the largest wave die to the Coastal Cabana cardstock, lining it up with the single die used. Use Multipurpose Liquid Glue. Then adhere the Basic White foamy die on top of it using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

5. Now, don’t glue it on yet, but lay it on the card and decide which to want to stamp the sand with Crumb Cake ink onto the Crumb Cake cardstock. Stamp the starfish on the bottom left of the sand with Crumb Cake, and “Happy Birthday” with Secret Sea ink.

6. Once that is done, adhere the Coastal Cabana to the card with Multipurpose Liquid Glue. You will need to trim off the edges and maybe the top edge too.

7. Die-cut the shells from Calypso Coral cardstock. Adhere the shells with Stampin’ Dimensionals to the card. Use Wink of Stella on the shells and on the foamy edge.

8. Inside, stamp the sentiment “Hoping your Day is Perfect” with Secret Sea ink on 4" x 5-1/4" Basic White cardstock and stamp the starfish with Crumb Cake ink.
