This was the second card I had prepped for Irene and I to do.  I had pre-stamped my cards at home.  I thought I was well organized until she went to stamp – I had left all the stamps at home!  Luckily Irene had a fair stash of stamps that she made work just fine!

Flurry of Wishes - One Hour Card Class 080 - OHCC080

We made a card similar to this one at the last Workshop my friend held.  I switched it up to work with what I had.  And yes, it uses a retired stamp set but it was what I had!

Stamps: Flurry of Wishes (2017/18).

Cardstock: Gorgeous Grape, White.

Ink: Gorgeous Grape, Versamark.

Tools: Stamparatus, bone folder, purchased envelope, Tombow adhesive, snail adhesive, glue dots, sequins, Decorative Dots embossing folder, Iridescent Ice embossing powder,

Punches/Dies: Delicate Lace Edgelits (2018/19), Blizzard Thinlits Die (Holiday 2018).

Cut White cardstock 5-1/4” x 4” for the outside of the card.  Set up the panel and phrase on the Stamparatus.  I wanted to emboss with dye inks so here is what I did: Ink the phrase using Versamark ink.  Lightly tap some Gorgeous Grape ink on top of that and stamp on the panel.  Heat emboss with Iridescent Ice EP.  Adhere to card front.  Set aside.

Cut a Gorgeous Grape panel at 5-1/4” x 3-3/4”.  Pencil mark at ½” from the left edge and 2-1/4” from the right edge.  Line the Delicate Lace Edgelit with the pencil marks and die cut.  Run through the Decorative Dots embossing folder. Trim to fit card.  Adhere to card front. 

Die cut 3 different snowflakes from the Blizzard Die.  Arrange to the card front.  Add sequins.

Cut a White panel at 5-1/4” x 4” for the inside of the card.  Ink the largest snowflake from the Flurry of Wishes stamp set with Gorgeous Grape ink, stamp off then stamp on panel.  Over stamp with a phrase from the same stamp set in full strength Gorgeous Grape ink. Adhere to the inside of the card.

Decorate an envelope with snowflake images in Gorgeous Grape ink.

Shaving Cream Technique – One Hour Card Class 051 - OHCC051

This technique has been around for some time.  It is a little bit messy, but has a great result!

To do the Shaving Cream technique, cut Whisper White cardstock 3” wide x 4” long.  You can get six 3” x 4” panels from one sheet of Whisper White cardstock.

Give the shaving cream (foam, not gel) a good shake.  Cover the bottom of your ice cream lid with shaving cream.

Smooth the shaving cream out a bit with the Popsicle stick.

Add two drops of Island Indigo re-inker on top of the shaving cream in different spots.

Stir the shaving cream and re-inker in a swirling motion.  Don’t swirl it too much as you want contrast.  Add more drops of re-inker if it isn’t as dark as you want it.

Lay out wax paper so it is ready.  Press your card stock into the shaving cream.  Cover the front completely. 

Pull your card stock out of the shaving cream immediately and lay it face up on the wax paper.  Lay another panel of Whisper White card stock on top of the one covered in shaving cream. 

Press together for a second then pull apart giving you two shaving cream coated backgrounds.

Swipe off the shaving cream with a Popsicle stick or scrape it along the edge of your ice cream lid.

Wipe clean with a paper towel.

Repeat for an Invitation envelope – keep the flap out of the way as not to catch any moisture!

Keep repeating with more cardstock if desired.  You can always add more drops of re-inker or even a different color.  You can get a lot of background pieces from a small amount of shaving cream.

Give it 5 to 10 minutes to dry before trying to use adhesive on it.

Stamps: Flurry of Wishes.

Cardstock: Island Indigo, Whisper White.

Ink: Island Indigo, Island Indigo re-inker.

Punch: Snow Flurry.

Tools: Softly Falling EF, Stampin' Dimensionals, Shaving Cream (foam not gel), Popsicle stick or plastic knife, ice cream lid, wax paper, paper towels, Misti.
