Twisted In Time Note Cards - A Stamping With Friends Blog

 
Hello everyone, and welcome back! It's the fourth Saturday of the month...time for another Stamping With Friends Blog Hop! Thank you for joining us! If you are new to my blog, Stamping with Friends is a group of Stampin' Up!® demonstrators worldwide who share our love of card-making through monthly blog hops with various themes. If you are following the hop, you'll have just popped over from Mo Rootes - Crafty-rootes (UK blog. I hope you took a minute to leave a comment for her as I'm sure she'll appreciate it as much as I will. If you are starting the hop with me, thank you so much, and I hope you enjoy what the other hoppers and I have prepared for you today.  

Our theme today is simple...Note Cards... yup...just note cards. We could use any product as long as it was current, any technique etc, it all had to be done on a note card. In the video, I show you how to make your own 3 1/2" x 5" note card base if you want
to use a different color card base, but I used Stampin' Up!'s Basic White Note Cards and Envelope. 

Here's the project I created for you! Four matching note cards with coordinating stamped envelopes. I also made a note card box to store and mail them (stay tuned for the video).  They make a great gift.

Measurements:

Base: 3 1/2" x 5"
Basic White: 2 1/2" x 4"
Matte: 2 3/4" x 4 1/4" ( or 2 5/8" x 4 1/8" if you prefer a smaller matte border)





I hope you enjoyed this card and will give it a try. Please share your creations with me in my VIP stamping group

    Creative Inspiration with a Color Combination

    Here's this month's color combination:

    And here's the project it inspired:

    Dies don't just coordinate with one stamp set. Sometimes you'll find useful shapes that make the dies worthwhile on their own. The oval shapes in the new Online Exclusive Framed Scenes Dies are a great example of this.
     

    The outline floral image from the You Are Remarkable Photopolymer Stamp Set was stamped using Early Espresso Classic Stampin' Ink on a Basic White Cardstock rectangle measuring 3" x 4". Color was added using the appropriate textured filler stamp image; using Fresh Freesia for the petals, Daffodil Delight for the flower center, and Old Olive for the leaves. Additional background stamping was added using the dots and sketched lines images from the same stamp set with Fresh Freesia ink.

    The stamped panel was adhered to a Fresh Freesia Cardstock layer (3¼" x 4¼") using Stampin' Dimensionals™, and then both were adhered directly to a Basic White Cardstock layer (3½" x 4½"). The layered panel was added to a folded Lemon Lolly card base.

    Both ends of a strip of Fresh Freesia Cardstock measuring ⅜" x 3¼" were cut to create the banner, and a 3" length of Fresh Freesia ⅛" Faux Velvet Ribbon adhered through the center using a Mini Glue Dot. This was added directly to the left-hand side of the stamped panel, overhanging the layers as shown. The sentiment was stamped using Early Espresso Ink on Basic White Cardstock, and die cut using the smaller oval from the Framed Scenes Dies. The oval element was adhered to the left-hand side of the stamped panel using Stampin' Dimensionals, and Fresh Freesia Starburst Sequins added to complete the card.
