Thanks for stopping by my Blog today!

I wanted to showcase to you another card using the Share What You Love Suite. I know I only shared this Suite just a few days ago but I couldn’t resist making yet another card with this seriously beautiful paper.

Squash cards would have to have one of the ugliest names to be honest but in fact they are one of the sweetest fancy folds around. I love how adorable they become when the card is squished together. Its always a surprise for the person receiving it!

 

 

 

Todays project is a Squash Fold card showcasing the beautiful Share What you Love Suite designer series paper, Love what you do stamp set and a pop of one of our returning Colours Blackberry Bliss!

 

To recreate this gorgeous card you will need-

A piece of Blackberry Bliss Cardstock measuring 20.5cm x 20.5cm

Three pieces of Designer Series Paper measuring 9.5cm x 9.5cm

( One piece is kept whole but the other two are cut in half to create triangles)

Two pieces of Whisper White Cardstock measuring 9.5cm x 9.5cm

Grapefruit Grove Grosgrain Ribbon measuring 50cm

Pearlised Doiliey

 

Tips

Using your scoreboard score at 4inches on two sides creating four equal squares

Grab a ruler and your stylus and rule a line from one corner through to the other corner ensuring you have scored directly through the middle of the cross section.

Burnish with a bone folder on all the score lines.

Fold your card in half and fold the triangle section in on itself on both sides ( This is explained on the video for easy viewing)

Adhere your front piece of Designer Series Paper to your card.

Laying your card flat adhere your four triangle DSP on the card corners.

Stamp your flowers and sentiment on your whisper white cardstock  and adhere using snail.

Position your Pearlised Doily to the left hand side of your card front.

Using your BigShot and your Stitched Framelits cut the largest square.

Stamp your sentiment onto the square using the Love What You Do Stamp Set and add your flowers.

Use Dimensionals to prop up each corner of the square.

Place ribbon around card, ensuring it is even.

Adhere the square framelit over the top of the ribbon

Tie your bow!

Whoala your Squash Card is complete!

Thank you so much for stopping by my blog today!

I don’t know about you but I am super excited about the release of the NEW 2018-2020 IN COLOURS! They are fun, bright and quite frankly you are going to want them all!

Every year Stampin’Up launches a set of five colours which will remain current for the next two years. They spend countless hours researching which colours to choose and I have to say I think they have hit the nail on the head with these beauties.

Introducing-

LOVELY LIPSTICK 

 

Lovely Lipstick is such a bold, fun and happy shade of pink! As the mum of four boys I am surrounded by navy, brown and neutral shades so this little baby is going to get a work out in my craft room! Colour me Pink haha

 

GRAPEFRUIT GROVE 

Grapefruit Grove is such a delicate and gorgeous shade.  This one would have to be one of my absolute favourites as I know its going to coordinate beautifully with so many of our Designer Series Papers.

PINEAPPLE PUNCH 

Pineapple Punch is such a bright and bold shade! It certainly brings a smile to my dial just thinking about the fun projects I will create with it.

CALL ME CLOVER 

Call Me Clover is such a lush, rich colour. Beautiful and vibrant when stamped directly or soft and subtle when stamped off! My Irish heritage is screaming to use this one!

BLUEBERRY BUSHEL

Blueberry Bushel what can I say other than I love it! Such gorgeous tones that are bright, bold and fabulous! I am going to have so much fun with this one.

As soon as I saw this gorgeous bundle in the catalogue I had to have it! Who doesn’t love Limes and Lemons right?

You can add a little zest to your life, even on the most bitter of days. When life gives you lemon stamps, make lemon- stamped projects!

I love that I can make these stamps into lemons, limes, oranges and grapefruit simply by changing my ink colours!  It’s a happy and fun stamp set with some great sentiments.

 

This card was so simple to create because the Lemon Builder Punch and the 1-3/4″ circle punch did all the work for me, all I did was stamp and punch the pieces.

Card Recipe

Card Base: Peek a Boo peach 18cm x 13.9 cm

Card Front: Whisper White 14cm x 10cm

Fruit: Whisper White

Leaves: Lemon Lime Twist

Classic Weave Ribbon -Crumb Cake

Tips

Create this card by stamping your limes, lemons and oranges in Daffodil Delight, Peek a boo Peach and Lemon Lime Twist ( I used a dauber to sponge Tranquil Tide around the edges of the lime)

• Fold your Peek a Boo Peach card base in half. Using your aqua painter drip watered down Lemon Lemon Lime Twist randomly over your card front.
• Adhere your bow to your card front and mount to the base.
• Punch your fruit out using the 1 3/4″ punch and leaves using the Lemon Builder Punch
• Stamp your sentiment in Lemon Lime Twist and then add your Fruit using Dimensionals.
• Finish your card off by adhering leaves with a glue dot

 

I wanted to show you the versatility of the matching fabulous punch! I had loads of fun with my girls on the weekend creating these gorgeous roses with the Lemon Builder Punch.

It was so easy to create too!

All you need is 11 lemons punched out. One 1 3/4″ circle punch, a bone folder, Snail and Tombow.

TIPS

• Cut a 1 cm slit up the centre of each lemon punch. Using your Bone Folder curve each Petal ( Lemon)
• Add snail and fold the cut edges in to create a petal. You will need to adhere 5 for the 1 3/4″ circle base working the petals around.
• The next four petals will be adhered closer together and then with the last two create the throat of the flower.
• You can add a button or create your own stamen with Daffodil Delight Cardstock.

I immersed myself today in all the beautiful, Designer Series Papers, coordinating Cardstock, Stamps, ribbons and embellishments. I couldn’t believe my eyes when I looked at the clock that it was almost time to pick up my boys from school.

Anzac Day is a national day of remembrance here in Australia and New Zealand where we commemorate all the Australian and New Zealand service man and women who served and died in all wars, conflicts and peace keeping operations.

We will never forget the sacrifice our service men and women gave for us.
