This year for my ScrapFest Make & Take I’m using a very themed stamp set… Crafting with You. If you’ve seen the stamp set and dies then you’ll know why I couldn’t resist. I mean just the paper trimmer and emboss machine that’s part of this set make it a great addition to any paper crafter’s craft stash!
I’m pairing it with the Delightfully Eclectic Designer Series Paper pack that’ll soon be retired. It’s nice and colourful! And I cut up a couple of different designs to give some options with this fun fold card. I wanted to do something a bit different, but still easy enough to copy from the sample. And because I have a couple of different designs of patterned paper, I’m using a nice neutral card base; Smoky Slate. Plus this is the perfect colour for the paper trimmer and scissors I die cut in advance.
To make the base, you’ll start with a standard 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ card base. I highly recommend that you score it in half (at 4 1/4″) before you diagonally cut half of the front of the card base off. It definitely makes it easier! Then I added another piece of Smoky Slate cardstock which I folded in half and added some Basic White to the inside and outside.
From here I simply stamped a sentiment and an emboss machine of the outside piece of Basic White cardstock using Smoky Slate ink. Then to pull a little colour from the DSP, I stamped a few little hearts with Fresh Freesia ink. Next I added a die cut paper trimmer. And to finish it off a few Rhinestone Basic Jewels for some bling.
I hope that everyone at ScrapFest enjoys crafting with Crafting with You as much as I have been! I’m so glad to see that it’s sticking around for a while longer.
Sadly the Delightfully Eclectic DSP pack is not. Check out a masculine themed card I made with this great pack of patterned paper here.
And don’t forget the last chance sale is only for a little while longer!
