A Little Lace – A Note to Say Hello – Card Tutorial – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

The stamp used here is a “A Little Lace”. It’s beautiful and I’ve used it a number of times in both cards and gift bags. It’s a great set to use to stamp your own patterned paper. You can make a bespoke design in just the colour and size you want.

The colours I used here are Mango Melody and Pumpkin Pie. It keeps it very tone on tone and yet it is still vibrant and colourful. The elegant faceted gems just give it that touch of bling to lift the whole card.

measurements

  • Pumpkin Pie A6 Cardbase – This is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half
  • Basic White – 14.35cm X 10cm

The colour used here is Gorgeous Grape. It is such a bold colour and contrasts so well with the Whisper White. I’ve done this layering technique before and have linked the project below. It is a simple technique but works well. The rhinestones just give that touch of bling and in all fairness who doesn’t need a little bling?

measurements

  • Gorgeous Grape A6 Cardbase – This is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half
  • Gorgeous Grape Cardstock :
    • 13.85cm X 9.5cm
    • 12.85cm X 8.5cm

    • 12.85cm X 8cm

I hope you are all doing well. I’m quite far ahead in my blogging so when I write this we have got through a heatwave. Although I deal with the heat and didn’t even need the fan except for about 10 minutes a night I am glad the temperatures have come down. I wish we could have got some rain though as the grass is parched.

Monochromatic – Thank you Card – A Little Lace

I have this gorgeous monochromatic thank you card to share with you today. This colour uses one of my favourite colours, Bermuda Bay. I love the rich vibrancy of this colour against the whisper white. It works well. What do you think?

A Little Lace is a gorgeous stamp set. I’ve used it before to stamp my own patterned paper to make a bag. I’ll link the video below. This is a great set as it contains sentiments and this lovely lace stamp. Last time I used Melon Mambo and it looked equally

Everything can do with some bling at times. I’ve used the clear faceted gems in the flower centres for some sparkle. They really lift the card and make it come alive.

I will admit that in the last week I feel as I’ve lost my mojo. I am struggling with words to write this blog. Is anyone else feeling the same, I have all the time in the world to craft but just don’t feel like it. Typical!!

This card uses an old technique. I don’t know what is called. I stamped all three white layers together and then separated them so that pattern continues across all the pieces.

measurements

  • Whisper White:
    • 14.35cm x 10cm
    • 11.85cm x 7.5cm
    • 9.35cm x 5cm
  • Bermuda Bay:
    • 12.35cm x 8cm
    • 9.85cm x 5.5cm
    • A6 Cardbase – This is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half

The thank you sentiment is from the Label Me Pretty stamp set, an older one but still a great one. I’ve used punches so there is no need for any die cutting here.

One Sheet Bag – A Little Lace

I have a simple one-sheet bag that uses the Little Lace stamp set from Stampin’ Up!. This is a great project for kids as the bag involves only scoring and no cutting. Therefore no scissors for little fingers to get caught in.

I first made a version of this bag when I did a make and take with a group of Girl Guiders in Hounslow, London. It was a great success and everyone went away feeling proud of their creations.

This is also a cheap bag to make as it only uses one sheet of whisper white cardstock. I stamped the bag using the A Little Lace stamp set. It is a red rubber stamp set and it stamps crisply giving a clean and elegant image. I actually chose Lovely Lipstick as the colour as I have the matching ribbon in that colour.

Measurements

  • Whisper White A4 sheet,
    • Score on the short side at 2 inches from each side
    • Score on the long side at 4 7/8 inches from each side

A bone folder is essential for this project. An investment in a good bone folder is worth its weight in gold. It will help you get crisp scorelines that fold easily and look professional. I love the Stampin’ Up! as it has a good weight to it.
