Stamp With TLC

Paper Crafting and Card Making

Tulip Gift Card Holder

by

Today’s card is part of my March 25 zoom class. I saw a card on the internet using the tulip border in the same way but my change was to make the piece behind the tulips a pocket for a gift card. It is a small pocket but it is big enough to hold a gift card, check, or cash long enough for the recipient to take it out of the envelope without it falling out of the card. It is also small enough that if you don’t want to put anything in the pocket, no one will notice. You can even glue it completely shut or cut off the excess piece. Don’t forget to check out my event’s calendar for the latest classes. I have some local classes as well as some free demonstration classes and of course my monthly zoom card class.

Below is the inside of the card. The side panel can be a pocket for a gift card or you can glue it completely down.

Tri Easel Card

by

This weeks card is a Tri Easel card. I did use the Sunshine and Rainbows DSP for the background triangles which is no longer available, sorry about that, but I really like the way it turned out. The cactus is punched from the Artfully Composed DSP. I will be honest and say when I first saw the Artfully Composed DSP I did not care for it because the print was large and busy, but then I took a look at the other side and love it. I thought the green was perfect for the cactus punch and the flower was punched from the Calypso Coral piece of DSP. So while I haven’t used the large floral busy side, I am loving the subdubed side.

Check out the free download for all the measurements and materials used to make the card.

Portrait A2 Infinity Card

by

I have seen multiple Infinity cards online and liked the A2 size on Monika Davis’s blog. It’s a fun card that can be designed in a portrait or landscape orientation. The key to working these cards is to fold out from the center. Another key is to make sure the edges don’t overlap and burnish your score lines well. I decided to use You’re a Peach Designer Series Paper because the Annual Catalog is going to be changing May 1st and DSP usually doesn’t carryover to the new catalog, so I wanted to do a little more designing with it before it went away.

Two get the shaded look on the peach stamps, I first inked the peach in Pale Papaya and then used a sponge dauber and Cajun Craze to add some shading on the actual stamp it self before stamping the image on the paper. NOTE: When daubing another color onto the stamp, be sure to use a pouncing motion… do not rub it on.
