In this class we will be creating 5 Handmade Cards with 5 different Brayer Techniques to Create Beautiful Backgrounds. This class has been especially created for the Changing Leaves & Simply Zinnia Bundles from Stampin’ Up! (see supply list below). You can choose which Bundle to use, you don't need to have both Bundles. However, you may also use any Stamp Set, Dies & Embossing Folder of your choice.

Card #1 –

Soft Sea Foam Cardbase – 5 ½” x 8 ½” scored at 4 ¼”

Old Olive Envelope – kit

Mossy Meadow Stampin’ Write Marker

Old Olive Ink Pad

1 ½” or 1 ¾” Circle Punch

Linen Thread – 16”


1- Trim folded edges from one Green Envelope to separate the front from the back. Trim envelope flowers to measure 2 ½” x 4”. From the remainder of envelope cut a 3” x 4” layer. 

2- Distress the edges of the green layer. Attach flower panel to center of distressed green layer with Stampin’ Dimensionals.


3- Splatter ink with Old Olive Marker over the cardbase front . Attach flower layers to the center.


4- Stamp greeting in Old Olive ink and cut out with a Circle Punch that fits. Cut 16” of Linen Thread and add to the back of the greeting in a double faux bow. Attach as shown with Stampin’ Dimensionals.









Card #2

Petal Pink Cardbase – 5 ½” x 8 ½” scored at 4 ¼”

Melon Mambo Envelope – kit

Melon Mambo Stampin’ Write Marker

Memento Black Ink Pad

Old Olive Rectangle Strip – kit

Linen Thread – 12”

Greeting Label – kit

Spotlight on Nature Dies or other Large Shape Die


1- Trim folded edges from one Melon Mambo Envelope to separate the front from the back. Use a Large Circle Die to cut out the flowers. I used the largest die from the Spotlight on Nature Dies.


2- Trim the excess Melon Mambo Envelope Paper into a rectangle. Mine was 1 ¾” x 4 ¼”.


3- Splatter ink with Melon Mambo Marker over the cardbase front . Attach the Melon Mambo rectangle to the center.


4- Add the Large Flower Circle with dimensionals to the center of the cardbase.

5- Attach the small Old Olive Rectangle over the Circle on the right side.

6- Stamp greeting in Black ink on a matching Greeting Label and over the Old Olive Rectangle with dimensionals. Tie 12” of Linen Thread and add to the bottom right corner of the greeting.

 



Card #3

Thick Basic White Cardbase – 5 ½” x 8 ½” scored at 4 ¼”

1- Trim folded edges from one Calypso Coral Envelope to separate the front from the back. Cut the flowers from the front to 2 ¾” x 4 ¼”. From the white space trim two ½” x 4 ¼” pieces.

2- Attach the two Calypso Coral  ½” strips to the top and bottom of the Flower piece. Make sure the left edges line up.


3- Cut the Melon Mambo & Old Olive scraps from the cardbases to 1 ½” x any size. Layer them on the right side of the Flower Piece in the open space.


4- Use a Black Marker to splatter ink over all the pieces. Make sure they are dry or they will smear. Maybe use a Black Stampin’ Blend Marker instead – it might not smear.

5- Once dry, add everything to the center of the White Cardbase.


6- Add the Small Calypso Coral Rectangle to the right side over the seam where the Old Olive & Melon Mambo pieces match. You can add it with a full size dimensional (or ½ size – watch the video).

7- Stamp the greeting in Black ink on a matching Label. Add over the Calypso Coral Rectangle with dimensionals or ½” size.

8- Tie a bow with 12” of Linen Thread and add in the bottom left corner of the Calypso Coral Rectangle.

 


I have also created a video walking you through each step.

Hi Everyone and welcome to Paper Pumpkin Week here on Creative Chelsey. Over the next two days I am going to share with you 6 card ideas you can make with one set of supplies from the July 2024 Paper Pumpkin Kit called Painted Petals. Because I was so late in getting these cards out and next month’s kit is already on its way I decided to combine the cards into two tutorials.


The projects from this kit are amazing with beautiful floral designs and bright happy colors. I also love the greetings that are in the stamp set. They are perfect for any type of card. The kit creates a total of 9 greeting cards 3 in three different designs. If you would like to watch me unbox the kit and create these cards click on the playlist below.

Card #1 –

Thick Basic White Cardbase – 4 ¼” x 11” scored at 5 ½”

Melon Mambo Cardbase – kit

Mossy Meadow Cardstock – 3 ¼” x 4 ½”

Melon Mambo Die Cut Flower – kit

Greeting Label – kit

Sequins – kit


1- Trim the Melon Mambo Cardbase along the score line at 4 ¼”. Cut the front down to 3 1/8” x 4 3/8” to frame the flowers. I trimmed 1/8” from the right side & 1” from the left side. ¾” from the top & 3/8” from the bottom.

2- From the back solid Melon Mambo side cut in half to 2 ¾” x 4 ¼”. Add a ½” score line that runs parallel to the long edge. Fold.


3- On the front of the White Cardbase, place the bottom edge inside the folded Melon Mambo piece, DO NOT GLUE. Make sure all the sides are lined up. Place only the front of the cardbase into your paper trimmer and cut a diagonal line through both the Melon Mambo piece and the front of the cardbase. This will insure that they are the same angle.


4- Now adhere the Melon Mambo piece to the bottom of the White Cardbase with the ½” fold attached to the back. The angle cuts from both the front of the cardbase and the Melon Mambo piece should meet together.


5- From the White piece that was cut from the front white cardbase. Stamp the Diagonal Lined design along the angled edge in Old Olive. Then cut off the stamped edge at ½” keeping the angle the same.

Attach this to the back of the front White Cardbase flap so you see about 1/8” of so of the diagonal detail. When the card is closed you will see this detail on top of the Melon Mambo piece.


6- Add the Soft Melon Mambo Flowers (from the cardbase in the kit) to the Mossy Meadow cardstock. Then add to the center of the card with dimensionals only attached to the top white area of the cardbase.

7- Add the Melon Mambo Die Cut Flowers to the center of the Soft Melon Mambo Flowers with dimensionals.


8- Stamp your greeting in Old Olive ink on a matching label from the kit. Add to the right area near the flowers with dimensionals.

9- Add three Sequins from the kit.

 






Card #2

Thick Basic White Cardbase – 5 ½” x 8 ½” scored at 2 ½” & 6 ¾”

Old Olive Cardbase – kit

White Die Cut Flower – kit

Greeting Label – kit

Sequins – kit


1- Cut the Old Olive Cardbase in half at the score line 4 ¼”. From the back Old Olive side trim a piece that is 1 ¾” x 5 ½”. From the front piece trim around the flowers to 2 ½” x 5 ½”. I removed ¼” from the left and 1 ½” from the right.


2- On the back of the 1 ½” front piece stamp the Diagonal Lined Design across the long edge in Calypso Coral ink. Trim this detail off at ½” and add it behind the Soft White Flower piece on the right edge so about 1/8” show.


3- Add the Soft Flowers to the left 2 ½” flap on the cardbase. Add the Old Olive piece to the 1 ¾” right flap.


4- Add the White Die Cut Flowers to the left flap with about ¼” hanging off the edge. Add this piece with dimensionals only on the left flap.

5- Stamp your greeting in Calypso Coral on a matching label and add over the flower stems with dimensionals.

6- Add three sequins.

 




Card #3

Basic White Cardbase – 5 ½” x 8 ½” scored at 4 ¼”

Calypso Coral Cardbase – kit

Basic White Cardstock – 4 1/8” x 5 3/8”

Calypso Coral Die Cut Flower – kit

Greeting Label – kit

Sequins – kit


1- Separate the front of the Calypso Coral Cardbase in half at the score line 4 ¼”. Adhere the Calypso Coral back piece to the front of the White Cardbase with adhesive ONLY around the outside edge, keep it to a small amount.

2- Use a large nesting shapes die like the Spotlight On Nature Dies to create an opening on the front of the cardbase. Make sure to open the cardbase so it doesn’t cut through the back, it should cut all the way through both pieces on the front.


3- Adhere the 4 1/8” x 5 3/8” White piece to the back of the front of the cardbase. Separate the large shape cut outs, white from the Calypso Coral. Adhere the White piece back into the opening. I added adhesive only around the outside edge. 


Use the next size down to cut out a smaller opening. This will give you a white border around the opening. Make sure to open the cardbase so it doesn’t cut through the back.


4- From the Front of the Calypso Coral cardbase Soft Flowers, score ¼” along the right edge. Fold and adhere it to the back of the White Cardbase on the right side. This will create a third panel that will sit inside the card showing through the opening.


5- Adhere the Calypso Coral Die Cut Flower to the front of the cardbase in the center of the opening. Add with dimensionals only at the top and bottom where it will attach to the front of the cardbase.

6- Stamp your greeting on the matching label in Memento Black ink. Adhere to the bottom right corner with dimensionals.

7- Add three sequins.

 



I have also created a video walking you through each step.
