Last week I posted that I really wanted the Phrases for All Stamp set and Nested Dies. (I got them – haha). I got to use them and paired them up with the Gorgeous Garden Dies – wowza – these are great.
To make this project, you’ll need the following supplies:
- Cardstock/Paper: Basic White Thick (5 ½” x 8 ½”, scored at 4 ¼”), Basic Black (4 ¼” x 5 ½” and 4” x 2”), Vellum (4 ¼” x 5 ½”)
- Ink: Craft White Ink
- Basic Tools: Snips, Trimmer, Adhesives (Glue, Glue Dots, Dimensionals)
- Additional Tools/Supplies: Stampin’ Blends (Sweet Sorbet, Pumpkin Pie, Lemon Lolly, Parakeet Party, Tahitian Tide, Starry Night), White Embossing Powder, Heat Tool, 2022-2024 In Color Adhesive Pearls; 91% Alcohol
- Stamps/Dies: Phrases for All, Gorgeous Garden Dies
To make this project, follow these steps:
- Start by coloring a rainbow pattern on your vellum (or any desired pattern in any color you want – but use Blends). Make sure you protect your work surface and splatter the vellum with 91% alcohol. This will cause the alcohol to bleed and move around creating fun patterns. Set aside to dry.
- Stamp the ‘Thank You’ sentiment on 2 the smaller Basic Black piece in Craft White ink and cover in White Embossing Powder. Set with the heat tool. Set aside to dry (the pigment ink will be a little tacky)
- Cut out desired ‘garden’ image from the larger Basic Black piece. If the sentiment is dry, cut it out using the appropriately sized Nesting Die
- Once the vellum has dried, adhere to the back of the ‘garden’ piece of Basic Black. Adhere this whole panel to the card front. Trim if needed.
- Adhere the sentiment to the center of the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Finish off with some pearls.
Here is a video that shows how awesome the dies are and how I got the alcohol effect:
Not too bad – I love the effect the alcohol gives on the vellum with the Blends!
