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.

 

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.

Boardwalk Fun - Spinner Card

This is another spinner card that I made following Debra Harrison's instructions.  I plan to have my card class make this one.  It uses the February Product of the Month (12" x 12" Painted Illusions DSP).  I cut two Ferris wheel dies from Thick Basic White and cut the frame off of one of them.  The other one, I just used the frame.  I used the Shades of Green Hexagons.

Here are my instructions:

Boardwalk Spinner Card

Stamp Set:  Boardwalk Fun

Cardstock:  Lemon Lime Twist, Pretty Peacock, Thick Basic White, Basic White, 12” x 12” Painted Illusions DSP (February Product of the month)

Ink:  Pretty Peacock

Other:  Stampin’ Cut and Emboss Machine, Boardwalk Fun Dies, Shades of Green Hexagons, Multipurpose Liquid Glue, Glue Dots, Spinners (it’s one piece)

Where to buy Amazon Spinners:  https://a.co/d/098SVnRj

 

1.     Cut Lemon Lime Twist cardstock to 4-1/4" x 11" and score at 5-1/2" for card base.

2.    Cut Painted Illusions DSP to 4" x 5-1/4" and adhere with adhesive.

3.     Cut the Lost Lagoon DSP at 3-1/4” x 4-1/2 and adhere to the Pretty Peacock cardstock at 3-1/2” x 4-3/4”.

4.    Cut Lemon Lime Twist cardstock at 1-1/4” x 3-1/4” and ink up “Happy Birthday” with Pretty Peacock ink.  Adhere to the bottom of the Peacock and DSP with a little bit showing at the bottom.

5.    Die-cut the Ferris wheel from Thick Basic White cardstock.  You will cut off the frame of one of them, leaving only the Wheel.  You only want the frame and the circle of the other one.  Adhere the frame to the card, with the bottom adhered to the top of the Lemon Lime Twist birthday wishes.

6.    For the Ferris wheel, die-cut the little seats from Lemon Lime Twist and Pretty Peacock cardstock, alternating the colors on the wheel with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

7.    Die-cut two big stars for the center of Lemon Lime Twist and Pretty Peacock.

8.    To attach the wheel to the frame, use a “spinner” with the biggest part on the bottom with a Glue Dot

9.    Add another Glue Dot on top of the smaller sign of the “spinner” to attach the center of the wheel.

10.  Watch it spin!  You may have to shape the Ferris wheel.

11.   Add two Hexagons to the “Happy Birthday” on opposite sides.     On the inside:  Cut two palm trees and a strip of DSP cut at ½” x 4” to add to the Basic White cardstock cut at 4” x 5-1/4”.     

 

Sunset Coast

This card was made using new products that will be available on May 5, 2026.  The Designer Series Paper is 6" x 6," and has the most beautiful sunset horizons with the sky and the sea.  It has foil accents and iridescent finishes.  The dies have nautical images. It also comes in a Suite called Scenic Coast, which includes two stamp sets and two dies, the Designer Series Paper, Loose Anchor Trinkets, Sunset Sparkle Sequins, and Sunset Shimmer Vellum Specialty Paper, all for $91.25.  You can, however, buy them separately.  

This card was inspired by the card on page 27 in the May - August, 2026 Catalog.

Directions to my card:

 

Stamp Set:  Sunset Coast

Cardstock:  Blueberry Bushel, 6” x 6” Scenic Coast DSP

Ink:  Versamark

Other:  Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine, Sunset Coast Dies, Sunset Sparkle Sequins, Embossing Buddy, Wow Basic White Embossing Powder, Heat Tool, Multipurpose Liquid Glue, Stampin’ Dimensionals

 

1.     The Base of the card is Blueberry Bushel cardstock cut at 4-1/4” x 11” and scored at 5-1/2” in the middle.

2.    The second layer is the Scenic Coast DSP.  Cut off 1” off both sides and ¾”
 from the top to make it 4” x 5-1/4”.  Adhere to the base of the card.

3.    Take the same DSP and use the other side and cut it at 3-3/4” x 5”.

4.    Ink up the sentiment “Wishing You a Lifetime of Joy” in Versamark towards the bottom, and then add White Embossing Powder and heat set with the Heat Tool.

5.    Use the Scenic Coast Die of the lighthouse to die cut using the Sunset Coast Dies.  Then layer on top of the 2^nd DSP layer with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
