Use your Pretty Papers- Part 3

/ Leave a comment

I love beautiful paper and I have lots of it.  An embarrassing amount of it to be quite honest.  I am always looking for great layouts that showcase pretty paper with a simple layout that is easy to recreate with any paper you have.

Use your pretty papers Part 3, Stamp with Jill

This is so easy and the main focal point is the pretty paper.  The key here is to have a tiny sentiment so it does not over power the paper.

Here are the specs.  The designer paper is cut to 3.75 x 3.75.  the next step is to simply layer with coordinating colors.  This Fun Stampers Journey paper called The Good Life Prints is absolutely beautiful and make designer paper cards SUPER EASY!  Here are the rest of the measurements.  Whip Cream 3-3/4 x 4,  Chambray Shirt 3-3/4 x 5,  Denim Days 5-1/8 x 3-7/8, Whip Cream 4 x 5.25 and the card base is 4.25 x 11, scored at 5.5.

/ 22 Comments

Hello stamping friends and welcome to a new 2018 Fun Stampers Journey Creative Team blog hop!  We are celebrating awesome Fall projects in this hop.  Today, I am featuring a Zen Leaves Fall Note card set with a matching card carrier!   

Fall Note Card Set, Stamp With Jill, Fun Stampers Journey

What a fun gift set this is! Each of the Zen Leaves are heat embossed with pigment ink and white embossing powder on colored card stock.  I used Haystack, Pumpkin Bread, Cocoa Powder and Oatmeal Cookie.  Even the colors are fall!

The panel behind the leaves is made of whip cream card stock and the Barn Wall embossing folder.  It adds just the right amount of texture.

On each of the four cards, the sentiment is stamped with cocoa powder ink and the Everyday Script bundle.  It is backed by a partially die cut rectangle from the Journey Rectangle Long die set.

Each envelope of the Fall Note card set is stamped in ink matching the cardstock on the leaves on the card.

A Fall Note card set is a beautiful gift!  It is definitely not complete unless you stamp and decorate the inside of your cards!  

The tote is made from the awesome FSJ Card Carrier die. It cuts and scores all the pieces for the box/bag.  I added a few extra leaves on the front panel to give it something extra!
