Coastal Cabana Thank You Card

Hello, Crafters.

Yesterday was a day of clearing up, washing, dealing with 

queries, getting my nails done, and crafting! I made two cards, 

one of which be made into a video sometime soon, and

 a Thank You card to share with you here on my blog! I

 can't tell you how good it feels to be back! ☺

  I'm so pleased we can now buy Designer Series Paper

 (DSP) Stacks in all the colour families again. I chose 

Coastal Cabana and started with four 1.25" squares in

 DSP, and four 1 3/8" squares in Coastal Cabana Cardstock

 (CS). I adhered the squares together in pairs with Tombow. 

 Next I adhered them onto a piece of Whisper White CS

 that measured 3 1/8" square, alternating them between

 vertical and horizontal. I stamped Thank You - which is 

from the Southern Serenade Stamp Set - on to a piece 

of Whisper White CS using Coastal Cabana Ink. I punched

 it out using the 1.25" Circle Punch and adhered it to a

 scalloped Coastal Cabana circle I'd punched out 

using the 1 3/8" Scallop Circle Punch. 

 

After adhering them together with Tombow, I adhered it to 

the square using Dimensionals. I took a layer of Coastal

 Cabana CS and dry-embossed it using the new Swirls 

& Curls Embossing Folder which will be available 

in the new Christmas catalogue. 

If you have shopped with me in the last twelve months, I 

will automatically send you a free copy before the end 

of August. If you don't already have a Stampin' Up!

 demonstrator and would like to shop with me, I'll be happy

 to pop a catalogue in the post! 

Just email me your details to janb@janbcards.com.

 I added the top layer to a layer of Whisper White CS , and 

adhered a piece of our 5/8" Polka Dot Tulle Ribbon around

 the lower half, and then I added a piece of retired Coastal 

Cabana Ribbon. I tied a separate bow using a piece of 

Tuille Ribbon and adhered it using Tombow. I used 

Dimensionals to adhere the square to the card front,

 and decided it needed something to finish it off!

  I made three flowers by stamping, and punching out

 the Bunny tail from the Best Bunny Stamp Set. I 

gave the flowers some dimension before adding a 

Basic Pearl in the centre of each. I also added three

 small Basic Pearls on the sentiment. I added a layer 

of Whisper White CS inside the card but left it blank 

as it's a Thank You card and I like to leave plenty 

of space in case the message is a long one!  

 That's about it from me today! Until tomorrow, happy crafting.
