Calypso Coral Falling Flowers - One Hour Card Class 063 - OHCC063

Stamps: Watercolor Wash, Falling Flowers, Birthday Blossoms.

Cardstock: Calypso Coral, Watercolor paper.

Ink: Calypso Coral, Calypso Coral re-inker.

Tools: bone folder, Aqua Painter, Tombow adhesive, snail adhesive, White embossing powder, Multipurpose Adhesive Sheet, Calypso Coral ribbon, dimensionals, glue dot, purchased envelope, Scatter Sunshine Stampin Around wheel

Dies: May Flowers Framelits.

I found this card on Pinterest and used it as my guideline. 

I used the Stampin Around wheel (retired) to make the patterned paper.

I used the Watercolor Wash background stamp for the watercoloring then used very little water with the Aqua Painter to blend some of the ink.

Used the Stampin Around wheel to help decorate the inside of the card. 

Add a row of Scatter Sunshine flowers along the bottom of a purchased envelope.

More Brusho Cards - One Hour Card Class 046 OHCC046

This is card 3 of 3.  Card 1 is posted on my March 9 Blog post and card 2 is on my March 13 Blog post.

046C Embossing Folder and Brusho

Stamps: Birthday Blossoms (2017/18), Petite Petals (2016/17).

Cardstock: Dapper Denim, Daffodil Delight (YoYo Yellow), White, Old Olive, Watercolor.

Ink: Daffodil Delight, Memento black, Night of Navy.

Tools: paper piercer tool, Stampin Pierce Mat, spritzer, glue dots, gold metallic thread, Tombow glue, Petal Pair embossing folder (Occasions 2018), gold glitter glue, Sequins embossing folder, 3/8” Metallic ribbon (SAB 2017), Brusho crystals in Red, Blue, Yellow.

Punches: Pansy, Petite Petals.

I followed Leonie Schroder at Stamp A Latte’s video to do this card.  I had no luck with adding the white craft ink, so I left that part out.  I should have mopped up more water as I was looking more for a pastel look!

Sprinkle yellow, then a bit of red then a few touches of blue on the logo side of the Petal Pair embossing folder.  Lay the watercolor paper on the powder.  Run through the Big Shot. 

Carefully remove the watercolor paper from the embossing folder.  Lay on a napkin and spritz with water.  Lay another napkin on top.  Press lightly to mop up some water. 

Cut Brusho panel so it is 1-3/4” wide.  Butt the Sequins panel next to the Brusho panel.  Tape the top and bottom of the panels together.  Cut a strip of Dapper Denim to 3/8” and adhere on top of the brusho panel, barely covering the join.  Trim panel to 5-1/4” x 4”.  Add ribbon. 

For the flowers, I stamped 2 from the Birthday Blossoms stamp set and 5 from the Petite Petals stamp set on Daffodil Delight cardstock with Memento black ink, then punched them out.  Stamped and fussy cut the leaves.

Turn the flowers and leaves upside down on the Stampin Pierce Mat and spritz lightly with water. 

Break down the fibers by pressing down on each petal and the center with the end of your paper piercer tool, a rounded pen or a flower shaper tool.  Press the center of the leaves. 

Repeat from the right side of the flowers and leaves.  Set aside to dry completely. 

Once dry, adhere the two large flowers together and the four little flowers.  Add the last little flower to the center of the large flower. 

Add some gold metallic thread then add the flowers and leaves in a pleasing manner to the card front. 

Add gold glitter glue to the flower centers. 

Stamp a phrase in Night of Navy ink and the flowers in Daffodil Delight.  Adhere to inside of card. 

Decorate an envelope with the same flower images.  Run through the Sequins EF with the front of the envelope facing the logo on the EF.

This is card 2 of 3.  Card 1 is posted on my March 9 Blog post and card 3 is on my March 16 Blog post.

046B Air Puffer and Brusho

Stamps: Amazing You (SAB 2018), Colorful Seasons (2017/18).

Cardstock: Tangerine Tango, Dapper Denim (Not Quite Navy), Gold Foil, Marina Mist, watercolor.

Ink: Versamark, Dapper Denim, Daffodil Delight, Pool Party.

Tools: Tombow glue, Pool Party Glitter ribbon or 3/8” Classic Weave Ribbon, glue dots, Air Puffer or a drinking straw or the Colour Spritzer tool, aqua painter, Brusho Crystals: Yellow, Prussian Blue.

Dies: Seasonal Layers Thinlits.

Set your watercolor panel on a napkin in a cardboard box to keep the crystals from getting puffed everywhere. The napkin collects the water.  

Squiggle a thin line of water diagonally using the aqua painter.  Add yellow crystals. 

Start puffing with the Air Puffer in all directions – the main job for this puffer is for cleaning lens, filters, musical instruments, computers, keyboards etc.  The puffing creates thin tendrils of color.  Mop up any water before going to the next step.  Do not use the puffer again for any of its main jobs as there could be crystals in it.

Add a puddle of water in the top, right hand side of the yellow.  Add blue crystals. 

Start puffing.  Repeat for the bottom left side of the yellow. 

Add more blue if desired in the white areas.  When you are satisfied, spritz very lightly with water and sprinkle with a few more blue and yellow crystals.  I like the look of the undissolved crystals myself! 

Once dry, run edge of the panel thro Night of Navy ink to give the illusion of it being mounted to cardstock.  

Stamp the tops of the die cut leaves with the sun rays from the Amazing You stamp set in Versamark ink to give texture to the leaves. 

Arrange leaves in a pleasing manner to the front of the card.  Cut ribbon 4” long.  Tie into a knot.

Add a phrase and some leaf images to the inside panel of the card.

Decorate an envelope with the same leaf images.

Blooming Basket - One Hour Card Class 048 - OHCC048

Stamps: Blooming Basket (SAB 2018).

Cardstock: Very Vanilla, Bermuda Bay, Black.

Ink: Memento Black, Daffodil Delight, Bermuda Bay.

Tools: Bermuda Bay blends, Daffodil Delight blends, Old Olive blends, baker’s twine, Basket Weave EF, Spritzer, dimensionals, glue dots, Tombow glue.

Dies: Celebrate You Thinlits (SAB 2018).

Made this card with the new sale-a-bration Blooming Basket stamp set and Basket Weave Dynamic embossing folder that are in the second release of Stampin’ Up! 2018 sale-a-bration.

I stamped my image on a 2-1/4” x 3-1/4” Very Vanilla cardstock.  Color the small images before coloring the flower. 

Before adhering the Bermuda Bay panel to the rose panel, die cut the word “YOU’ from the center. 

Don’t forget to spritz the Basket Weave embossing folder lightly with water before running it through the Big Shot.  This prevents the cardstock from tearing.  Wrap with baker’s twine about 3” from the bottom before adhering to the card front. Add Celebrate to the bottom of the card. 

Add mounts to the rose panel.  Make a tiny bow. 

Stamp and color the tiny butterfly.  Cut out and adhere to handle. 

Stamp three butterflies on a Very Vanilla panel for the inside of the card.  Add the word YOU. 

Decorate an envelope with stamped butterflies.
