This week we are playing with the Amazing Life Stamp Set from the 2019 Spring / Summer Occasions Catalogue
The set comes with 17 stamps with sentiments perfect for any occasions. It also co-ordinates with the fantastic Rectangle Stitched Framelits Dies and currently available to order as a BUNDLE, saving you 10% off! Amazing right?!
I am sharing 4 card projects with you today from #simplestamping to a fun fold Pop Up…
Amazing Life Card #1
This Good Luck card idea is my #simplestamping sample using cards, inks, papers and a ribbon
I stamped the clover in Granny Apple Green on Lemon Lime Twist card mat randomly. This card was then adhered on to a cardbase measuring 21cm x 14.5cm, folded at 10.5cm
I stamped the sentiment in Tuxedo Black Memento on Whisper White cardstock 7.5cm x 11.5cm. Before adhering on the card mat, I tied a knot on the Granny Apple Green Textured Weave Ribbon. Folding both ends under the card which were then held in place using Tear & Tape. I used Multipurpose Liquid Glue to stick the stamped layer and it’s finish. Quick and easy
The next couple of cards I used the Hinge Step Technique on the Stamparatus to achieve my Rainbow coloured lines with the border stamp from the Amazing Life set
Amazing Life Card #2
The colours I used are Poppy Parade, Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green, Pacific Point, Highland Heather and Melon Mambo
The gap created from the Hinge Step Technique is wide enough to fit another stamped line. Therefore to get the sequence right, I stamped the 1st, 3rd, 5th & 7th colours first. Making sure that the stamp is clean before applying the next colour with the Simply Shammy
Move the Whisper White card so the stamp is in-between the stamped images then use 2nd, 4th & 6th colours
Smoky Slate card 3.8cm x 4.9cm, gut by die cutting with Rectangle Stitched Framelit
Very Vanilla card, die cut with the same as above then stamped with the funky design top and bottom
The sentiment was gold embossed then die cut with a Rectangle Stitched. This was shortened with the same die to create a nice stitching all around. Finished off by using dimensionals for the sentiment
Amazing Life Card #3
Cardbase 14.5cm x 21cm, folded at 10.5cm
Whisper White mat with stamped rainbow lines 13.5cm x 9.5cm
I started by laying the border stamp on a slight diagonal on the Stamparatus base. This way I know that when the moving plate picks it up, it will remain straight
The same process was followed as the previous ‘I Believe’ Rainbow card. After all 7 colours were stamped in the middle, I continued to follow the rainbow colour sequence off the cardstock
I tucked the Black Satin Ribbon on the left side with the help of Tear & Tape and cut the other end diagonally with Paper Snips. Adhered on the cardbase then added the strip of Smoky Slate 7.5cm x 1cm strip. Again the sentiment was gold embossed, die cut with the Rectangle Stitched and stuck on with dimensionals
Amazing Life Card #4
My final card is actually the card I gave to my Mum for her 65th Birthday last Friday. Previously, I have given her a Double Z Fold Card and a Jumping Pop Up Card, so I wanted to create another fun fold card this year
The decoration is fairly simple with the masking and sponging of Lovely Lipstick on the top of the card. I also used Lovely Lipstick ink to stamp the flowers randomly and the border stamp underneath. The sentiment was stamped in Tuxedo Black and die cut with the Rectangle Stitched Framelit
I tied the All My Love Ribbons in the Gold Library Clips to keep the card closed as it is a Pop Up Twist Panel Card!
To keep the focus on the panels, I kept the inside bare…not that I was running out of time on Thursday night / early Friday lol. I also forgot to film a video of the card in action
This is a prototype of another version of the Pop Up Twist Panel Card which was one of our first youtube videos. The added frame around the panels is intricate and slightly fiddly so I’m not sure whether to make a video tutorial on this one. Although, my 3 year old niece really enjoyed the card and wanted one for herself, so maybe in the future
