SU185 Padfolio

These instructions were given to us by Marian back in 2001 but I do not have her last name marked anywhere. If you are out there Marian, please let me know and I will add your last name. We are leaving for Salmon Arm, BC on Nov 25th (this post is delayed until December 2, 2009). I'm hoping to meet a few stampers along the way. I have made up a few of these to give as gifties to the friends that I have never met except via the internet. I hope they enjoy them.

Place a sheet of 81/2" x 11" cardstock in front of you with the 81/2" on the right and left for the directions.

From the left side, mark a score line at 5/8", 7/8" and 6". From the top right corner, mark down to 31/2" and up to the 6" score line. Cut this away. You can cut this on a curve or straight, whatever you want. Score at ½" at the bottom, right across the 11". Cut away the ½" up to the 6" score line only.

Fold all the score lines to the inside or wrong side. I splattered the front with navy acrylic ink. When dry, glue the 5/8" lip on to the back of a 5" x 8" writing tablet. Fold the last piece to the inside to form a pocket for important papers. Glue the bottom 1/2" to the pocket.

For some reason, the next photo did not listen to me when I asked it to rotate so you have to look at it sideways! I've added a 'business card' holder using photo corners and you can see I have a card tucked in the pocket.

Now you are ready to stamp and decorate the front. I used:

Stamp Sets - Inspired by Nature, Riveting.

Cardstock - White, Night of Navy, Old Olive.

Inks - Night of Navy, Old Olive, Navy acrylic for splattering.

Accessories - 11/4" circle punch, 13/8" circle punch, ticket punch, silver brad, sponge, mount, toothbrush to splatter.

The last photo is the back of the padfolio. You can see that the 5/8" lip is all that gets glued to the writing tablet.

SU003, SU004 Kissing and Reverse Kissing Technique

SU003 Kissing Technique

This is a simple and fun technique. Ink up the Canvas stamp with pigment ink - I found the pigment ink gave a brighter colour than the dye ink. Now, press or kiss the Big Blossom uninked stamp on to the Canvas inked stamp. The Canvas design is now transferred to the Big Blossom. Stamp the Big Blossom on to cardstock. Easy ... Easy!

Cardstock: Very Vanilla, Old Olive, Close to Cocoa

Ink: Rose Red pigment

Accessories: Crimper, 1" circle punch, Large oval punch

Stamp Sets: Big Blossom, Canvas, Warm Words

The images below have been scanned from the Stampin' Success January 2007 magazine (for demostrators). They did a far better job of samples than I could have.

 

SU004 Reverse Kissing Technique

If you look at your Canvas stamp, you will notice the Big Blossom has taken ink off it. Stamp it on to cardstock. You now have a tone on tone background with the flower image still visible. Too cool eh? With one inking, we have created two cards!

Cardstock: Very Vanilla, Certainly Celery

Ink: Rose Red pigment

Accessories: 11/4" circle punch, corner rounder

Stamp Sets: Big Blossom, Riveting, Merry, Canvas
