Earlier this month my Flowerbug's Team held a Fall Sampler swap. We each created one element and made multiples of it for everyone in the swap. These swaps are super fun to make! The only rule we have is that everything is current Stampin' Up! product and the colors coordinate with the Gilded Autumn Specialty Designer Series Paper.
Isn't it amazing!? We had enough people to make two! I'll share the other one tomorrow.
I adhered each piece on a 12" sheet of the In Good Taste designer series paper. This texture style paper is on sale right now in October! But there's just two days left to get it! Go here to order yours.
More ideas with the Botanical Layers & Lovely Layers vellum with video
Here are two more cards I made during last week's FB Live video. The Botanical Layers bundle includes both the stamp set and the Lovely Layers 3 3/4" X 5" vellum.
When I saw this piece of vellum with it's multi-hues vellum I knew I wanted to emulate a mountain scene.
I used a direct to paper technique to add ink to this vellum. This means you rub your ink pad directly onto the paper. Watch the video here to see how it's done.
I used Tahitian Tide, Granny Apple Green & Orchid Oasis. I stamped the flowers in Black Memento ink.
Tip: Vellum does not absorb ink. It sits on top so it's best to heat set it or let it dry for an hour or more.
For this next card I simply stamped a few of the images in the Botanical Layers stamp set onto the polka dot printed vellum. I used Parakeet Party & Orchid Oasis inks.
As you can see there are very few layers here; the stamped scene is all you need.
See the Sweet Songbird bundle here. The bird & wing are stamped on a separate piece of White CS and punched out. They're popped up as well as the sign (done on Sahara Sand CS).
Measurements: • Tahitian Tide card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4" • White front 5 1/4" X 4", inside is 4 3/4" X 3 1/2", scraps for bird punches • Sahara Sand scrap for hanging sign
Both projects feature the Cup of Tea bundle and the Tea Boutique designer paper seen here.
The card is an easy fun fold where the card base is a quarter sheet of Fresh Freesia card stock. The Garden Green piece is the part that opens and reveals the tea bag. Of course the tea bag is optional and would work as a gift card holder also.
