Parcel Card

Uncategorized

11 Sep
Hello, Crafters.
Whenever I order anything online, there is always a problem
 with it, which is why I prefer hubby to do my
 online shopping for me!
 
 In my Craft Studio Tour video I said I’d ordered six more 
trays for my Stampin’ Blends. I was so pleased when they 
arrived today, but the problem? The trays are black and I 
ordered clear to match the ones I already have! Grrr!

Never mind, I relaxed by making today’s card. The bow
 and “ribbon” are both from a bundle called Bring on the
 Presents, which is the name of the stamp set and
 the dies are called All the Presents Thinlits Dies.
 If you saw my Sneak Peek video, you may remember I showed
 the back of my magnetic dies folder where I had put the 
two strips of “ribbon”, one set as a right angle, and the 
second set as one above the other to make a patterned strip.
 I knew then that I’d come up with an idea how to use them 
but I expected it to be as a pattern and not 
something as simple as ribbon on a parcel!

 I made a card similar to this last year but I used real ribbon
 and a red felt stitched star for the centre! The Bring on 
the Presents Stamp Set also includes two 3″ stripe stamps 
that can also be used as ribbons, although you’d have
 to stamp two together to do my size parcel! 
 The Designer Series Paper I used for my card is Under the
 Mistletoe, and the cardstocks used are Shaded Spruce,
 Real Red and Whisper White.
  I chose the sentiment from the Many Blessings Stamp Set, 
and die cut it using a die from the Lakeside Framelits Dies. 
I die cut the shape again but this time in Shaded Spruce, which
 I then cut into four pieces i.e. each end that measured about
 1/2″ wide, and then the straight piece left over, I cut in half.
 I used Tombow to adhere the two green shaped pieces on 
either end of the sentiment, and then I adhered the two 
straight pieces top and bottom. I finished it off by 
adding two Red Rhinestones. To decorate the inside of the
 card adhered a layer of Real Red CS, and then a layer of
 Whisper White CS.

I finished the inside off with a another Real Red die cut bow – the
 same as on the front of the card – in the bottom right-hand
 side corner. I felt my card needed a bit of sparkle so I
 painted over both bows and the “ribbon” using my Wink
 of Stella Clear Glitter Pen! A simple card and I’m happy with 
how it turned out. I hope you do, too!
 That’s about it from me today. Until tomorrow, happy crafting.
JanB.

      Hi, Linda. I'm so sorry about this – unfortunately you're not alone! There's an issue with Blogger. I'm trying something else today so hopefully you'll receive tomorrow's notification. I'd be very grateful if you'd keep me updated. Many thanks, ☺☺ Happy crafting. JanB.
