Sandi MacIver – Stampin With Sandi – Stampin Up Sure Do Love You.
Hi stamping friends. I have a little fun Valentines project for you today, Stampin Up Sure Do Love you.
It’s a new Stamp/Die Bundle on pages 18-19 of the Occasions Catalogue and part of the die set creates this adorable little box (in the center of the picture).
Sandi’s Tips & Tricks for the Stampin Up Sure Do Love you Bundle:
- I chose the Painted with Love Specialty Designer Paper to create my projects with Mostly because I love Melon Mambo and Rich Razzleberry together and this paper has the added bonus of gold highlights.
- For my embellishments, I went gold. The Suite has Love Mini Tinsel Trim Combo Pack and you can see that behind the large heart on the box.
- I added Gold Metallic Thread and Metallic Sequin Assortment.
- You need two pieces of Melon Mambo card stock 5 x 7 to cut the box and then two pieces of designer paper 2-3/4 x 4-5/8 to cover the front and back of the box.
- I used the large heart die to cut the heart from another piece of this stunning Painted with Love Specialty Designer Paper.
TIP – the Painted with Love Specialty Designer Paper is super thick, so you could cut the box directly from it and save yourself a step.
- I did the Emboss Resist technique for this fun heart. First I white heat embossed the stamp onto a piece of watercolor paper 2=1/4 x 4-1/4 and then I put a watercolor wash over it with Melon Mambo at the top and Rich Razzleberry at the bottom, blending in the center.
- This piece ended up being one of the card fronts, and then I created another.
- This time I cut it out with the large heart die in the set and this because the main art piece for another of the cards.
- The other two cards are created with bits and pieces of the designer paper and die cut hearts and the envelopes also have just a splash of colour down the outside edge.
- For the cards themselves, I used the new Whisper White Narrow Note Cards & Envelopes. (also on page 19). These note cards are 2-1/2 x 4-1/2 and come in a package of 20 with envelopes and they just happen to fit perfectly in that little box!
The Sure Do Love You bundle comes in wood or clear and ordering them together will save you 10%
