Hi friends. I'm thrilled to be guest designing with Fran and the team this month. A big thanks to Kathy and Fran for having me.
I started out by stamping the strip from MFT's Spotlight Sentiment stamp set at a diagonal. I then die cut the Delicious Cupcake dies. I cut the cake part from white card stock and then did some blending with two colors of distress inks. It's hard to tell in the photo but I also added some clear Wink of Stella to the cupcake.
I love the wrapper part of the die as it also cuts several lines to give it a better look. This would be an easy card to mass produce and give as a gift.
I have another card & video to share today. I told you a few weeks ago when I shared a video on how to use the Frantic Stamper Pop Up Bases dies that I would make another one to show how to use a few more dies in the die set.
So, first here is my card and then the video will follow.
Here's the front of my card. I kept it pretty simple because I want the impact to be on the inside. I used a dotted patterned paper and then added in gold stars & a gold die cut sentiment from Frantic Stamper.
This is the inside. I used the 3 little rectangle dies from the Pop-Up Bases die set to pop up the cupcake and the two largest stars. The cupcake dies are a new die set from Frantic Stamper called Delicious Cupcake.
Here is a side view where you can get a better idea on how the items are popped up.
And you may be wondering why I'm showing this picture! The reason is so that you can see how thin everything is! It ALL folds up and lays fairly flat and is easily mailed! NO BULK and you still get items popped up quite a bit! I LOVE that. And, you could do this same thing on the front of a card if you wanted in place of pop dots (just an idea)! :)
So how did I do it? The instructions are in the video below. Now remember I am still learning and I'm not very good at editing yet, but I am learning! Thanks for hanging in there with me!
Thanks for hanging in there with me! I know that this was long post! I hope you enjoyed the video!
