Scalloped Tag Topper Petal Parade card

 

This is a card that I created using Tanya Bell's instructions for this technique using the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch #133324 into a card, but I wanted to use the Sale-a-Bration set Petal Parade. 

My club customers wanted to know how to make these, so I showed them how at the workshop today.  Here are the instructions for my card. 

 

 

 

 

1.     Pool Party cardstock is cut at 8½” x 5½”. (Do not score like the usual card).

2.     Line up the 5½” edge side of the cardstock at the top of the Stampin’ Trimmer at the 1” mark on the right side of the cutting area.

3.     With a pencil, make a little mark at the top of the cardstock at the 1” mark.  Flip it over and make another pencil mark on the other side.

4.     Gently push your cardstock into the Scalloped Tag Topper all the way back and line up pencil mark at the edge of the punch.  Now Punch!

5.     Make a score mark over this scallop and fold it in and crease with the Bone Folder.

6.     On the other side do the same, but do not score it.

7.     Instead, line the folded scallop at the 4¼” line on the trimmer and with the scoring blade score and use the Bone Folder to crease it.  Now the two scallops should meet on the right side of your card.

8.     Stamp the 5¼” x 4” Whisper White cardstock with Bermuda Bay ink and the leafy flower three times on the one side.  Attach to inside of card with Snail Adhesive.

9.     Use 1/8” Bermuda Bay Taffeta Ribbon to tie scallops together.

10.   On the outside, attach the 2” x 5” Sweet Sorbet DSP to the 2¼” x 5¼” Bermuda Bay cardstock with Snail Adhesive.  Attach to left side of card with Snail Adhesive.

11.   Stamp flower on Whisper White scrap and punch out with 1¾” Circle Punch.  Attach with Dimensionals.

12.   Punch out large Bermuda Bay butterfly with Elegant Butterfly Punch.  Stamp little butterfly with Bermuda Bay ink on Whisper White cardstock and punch out with Bitty Butterfly punch.  Attach with Glue Dot or Dimensional.

 

 

Perfect Pennants Scalloped Tag Topper Card

This is a technique that I learned from watching Tanya Bell's video to use the Scalloped Tag Topper, but I also used another technique with this card by using the Banner Framelits .  The set is from Perfect Pennants, and the ribbon is the 3/8" Summer Starfruit ribbon.  I used the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch, 1/2" Circle Punch, Banner Framelit Dies to make this card.  I used the colors Island Indigo and Summer Starfruit.

Fringed Scissors card

There is another card I made using the Fringed Scissors.  My friend Justine was over the other night and she said the colors reminded her of an ocean.  The colors used were from darkest to lightest starting with Midnight Muse, Island Indigo, Bermuda Bay, Coastal Cabana and Pool Party.  I also used the Decorative Dots Embossing Folder (SAB) and You're Lovely (SAB). I used the Labels Framelits Collection dies in the Big Shot to cut out the Vellum and the "I Think You're Lovely"
image.

Fringed Scissors Rainbow Card

My friend Justine shared a pin that she found on Pinterest and sent to me, so I couldn't wait to use my new Fringed Scissors to make a card very similar to the one she sent me.  The base of my card is Real Red.  At the bottom of my card, I used Elegant Eggplant, Pacific Point, Garden Green, Daffodil Delight, Tangerine Tangle, Daffodil Delight and Real Red.  The stamp set is from the Sale-a-Bration brochure called See Ya Later which can be earned FREE with $50 in net sales.  I stamped "You Make Me Happy" stamp on Whisper White and punched it out with the Decorative Label punch and also added some Daffodil Delight Stitched 1/4"  Grosgrain Ribbon.

You're Lovely - Live Happy

 

This is a card idea that I cased from Angie Leach which she cased from a Leadership card.

This is another card made with the You've Lovely stamp set.  This was not my first choice of stamp sets that I wanted to earn free, but now it is my favorite as well as the Decorative Dots Texture Impressions Folder.  Both are available for FREE in the Sale-a-Bration brochure.  You spend $50 each to earn each item. The technique is from a favorite trend right now called ombre which you will see in cards as well as fashion.  The base of my card is Raspberry Ripple cardstock.  Then a layer of Whisper White cardstock.  The panels are Raspberry Ripple, Strawberry Slush, Crisp Cantaloupe and Primrose Petals.  I colored the flowers with Strawberry Slush ink and stems and leaves with Pistachio Pudding ink and Blender Pens.  The ribbon is the Primrose Petals Stitched Satin Ribbon.  I also used Rhinestone Jewels for the centers of the flowers, but I also added a butterfly from the Beautiful Wings Embosslits

 

The card below is the same style, but using colors of Island Indigo, Bermuda Bay, Coastal Cabana and Pistachio Pudding.  The ribbon is 1/8" Bermuda Bay Taffeta Ribbon.

 

 

 

You're Lovely (SAB) Sympathy card

This card was inspired by Nicole Tugrul and since I loved the colors Island Indigo and Greenball Green she used as well as the Watercolor DSP, I knew I had to make one of my own.  The base of my card is Gumball Green, but I made another one with Whisper White, which I liked better, but forgot to scan it before I mailed it.  The stamp set is You're Lovely from the Sale-a-bration catalog and Petite Pairs from the catalog.  The ribbon is the Gumball Green Stitched Satin, and I also used the Pearl Basic Jewels and the Deco Labels Collection.

See Ya Later Alligator

This idea was cased by Brenda Quintana's tutorial.  It was such a fun card to make and her instructions were easy to follow.  I made mine into a full card with the mouth of the alligator inside the card.  The colors I used are Always Artichoke, Summer Starfruit, and Pistachio Pudding.  The stamp set is called  See Ya Later which is a free Sale-a-Bration set if you spend $50.  Another Sale-a-Bration item used is the Decorative Dots Embossing folder.
