Stamperia Winter Star Collection with many projects for inspiration

Hi... Bev here today at The Rubber Buggy.  I am sharing  5 projects 3 cards and 2 layout using this amazing mix and match combination Stamperia Winter Star Collection. Layering, ripping, fussy cutting from the accents make creating so much fun. 


For this layout I used many layers, lots of accent trims, fussy cut accents, doodled and also finished it off with inked edges.

This page was many layers, lots of ripped elements, accents and more inked edges... and some doodling again.

For this card I went for some layers... some popped up and a cute banner with bling accents

This card used lots of layer, matting, pop ups and some die cut letters for the sentiment.

Lots of layers and mix and match on this card.. and using scrap pieces from the stash on this origami xmas tree accent. Finished up with some bling and it's perfect.

    Tutorial for Scallop Easel Card with Traditional Card

    Nancy, here.  Back to today's inspiration for a scallop circle easel tutorial that I created for you as well as I am showcasing Stamperia Blue Land paper collection for the next couple weeks which should be in everyone's stash for cards this winter season as well as for Christmas!

    Sample page found in the Stamperia Blue Land Paper Collection




    This is actually a scallop circle easel card but my easel card will also have a traditional part for a Christmas sentiment on another layer.  This style of easel card is very simple to make with my step-by-step tutorial.  I am a visual person and like to see step-by-step pictures plus I added a lot of photos to guide you through this since words in these instructions can't always describe well for everyone. There are other tutorials of a scallop circle easel card but I think my tutorial with a scallop doily may be easier for beginners to follow along.  So let's get started!

    Putting Together The Circle Easel Card




    Step 1: Choose your card base 8" x 11"  and and score it in half and fold.  Do this again for the second card base.  Use a Bone Folder to sharpen the score line.  Any size circles will work  and a couple sizes smaller so you can layer patterned paper on top and decorate.  

    Place the  circle die which my circle was 4 1/4" diameter and lay the circle die slightly overlapping the folded cardstock and cut through your press (as below).  Make sure the fold of the card base is not cut within the die, so as to leave a card "hinge". Cut two of these bases which one for the easel card and one that will be glued on the bottom of the easel card for the traditional inside of a card with your sentiment.

    Step 2: Open your card base and fold one side of the circle in half, back into the center (as below on left side).  Stamp your Christmas sentiment for the inside of the card (as below on right side).  I used two stamps on the right photo below to give the sentiment a background.

    Step 3: Cut two single circle (circle size 4 1/4") one from white cardstock and the other  one from a glitter cardstock  and two doily dies.  

    Step 4:  I used a 3 3/4" circle die to cut the Stamperia Blue Land patterned paper out and adhered it to the glitter circle that was cut with the 4 1/4" circle die which will be glued together and then glued to a doily (See sample above photo of the circle on top right of photo of patterned paper glued to glitter circle.  This will be on the easel section of the card. Add adhesive to the folded half of the circle you just scored down and glue this doily to it (see photo below).  

    Step 5:  Adhere the other doily behind the bottom of the easel card.  Align the other card  and glue the two cards together.  

    Photo below is another sample of the other card.




    Sample of scoring and folding.  Birthday sentiment was typed and printed and then die cut and adhered to the last layer of this easel card.

    Step 6:  Using the 4 1/4" circle die slightly over lapping on top (see section 1 as a sample), cut out a blue patterned paper from the Stamperia Blue Land paper collection and glue to the inside of the easel card.





    Step 7:  I glued on a snowflake and then glued  the label with the "Merry Christmas" that was embossed with NUVO Embossing Silver powder.  Note: Adhere some 3D foam pads or foam dots to act as a stopper for the front panel of the easel card to lock in behind the Merry Christmas Label when the card is being displayed. 

    This is the easel card turned sideways so that you can see the layers as well as the 3D foam tape behind the label. I can mail this card this way but will continue to add more embellishments to finish this project which will cost more to mail.  I figure that if I make a card for a special person, the extra cost of mailing is a no-brainer.
    When closed, this cheery circle easel card will fit into 5" square envelope 
    If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to leave me a comment below. I would love to hear from you. And do share with me your very own handmade Easel Card photos.

    So get off your computers and start making one of these fun scalloped circle easel card like these!  I hope I have inspired you try out these products available at The Rubber Buggy on-line store.  My cards and projects are always posted on Saturday.  Keep watching and thank you so much for those wonderful comments as well as suggestions. 

    Enjoy and Happy Crafting!

    Stamperia Blue Land Birthday Card

    Welcome back and excited to share a birthday card made for a special friend using the gorgeous Stamperia Blue Land paper available at The Rubber Buggy.  Please visit the store for all the wonderful products and supplies I have used and order soon while supplies are available.  

    Instructions:  Cut out a 6" x 9" white cardstock and score at three inches on the left.  Cut out two 2 3/4" x 5 3/4" blue card stocks (one for the front and one behind on the inside of the card.  Cut out two 2 1/2" x 5 1/2" of Stamperia Blue Land paper and adhere together and then adhere one of the rectangles to the left side of the white cardstock and the other to the inside of the card.  Cut a 6" x 6" blue cardstock and 5 3/4" x 5 3/4" Stamperia Lue Land paper and adhere with glue. 
    Cut out one of the tags (photo shown below) and stamp your sentiment in the opening.   Adhere to inside of card.

    Cut out two doilies.  I cut out the circle with the church found in the Stamperia Blue Land paper pad (12" x 12") and used the Beacon 3-n-1 Advance glue to adhere to the doily die.  Print out the sentiment on the patterned paper and adhere to the other doily.  Glue one doily on the front of the card and the other behind it to the back side of the card.  Try to match the front and back of the doily when gluing the doilies together.


    Flower Instructions:   I die cut several flowers with an ole Heartfelt Creations flower die with white cardstock and shaped the flowers.  I tried to coordinate and match with the flowers in the patterned paper.  I used a 6mm flat back pearl and adhered in the center of each flower and colored the pearl with a dark blue Copic marker.  I handmade the blue seaming bow with additional leaves in the back of the bow.  I added the gorgeous NUVO White Blizzard drops to the snow on the picture for an additional shimmer and appearance of snow.  


    I typed a personal message and printed it out on the Stamperia Blue Land paper and used a Stitched Circle die to cut it out and adhere behind the doily.  I love this gorgeous page in this collection to stamp my sentiment on one of the tags and adhere it to the inside of the card.  I plan on using this page to add a Christmas sentiment and use it for the front of a Christmas card.  I cut out a butterfly in this paper collection and adhered it to the top of the tag to blend in to part of a butterfly on the patterned paper behind the tag.

    Merry Christmas Tags

    Hi everyone, Steph Ackerman here today with lots of fun products from the store.  Please visit the store for all the fun products I've used today.

     

    I found this fun Memory Box die - Everlawn Bells - and knew it would be an amazing die to work with along with the Maja Design Holiday in the Alps paper pad.

     
    I created 4 different 2 layered tags from the paper pad and then die cut 4 bells from Bazzill Mashmallow Cardstock.  As I wanted the center flower to appear 3 dimensional, I also die cut that portion of the die again for each tag.   The leaves on the main bell dies were inked with Lawn Fawn Freshly Cut Grass using an art dauber.  The flowers were inked Lawn Fawn Chili Pepper using an art dauber.
     
     
    The tag layers were inked with Distress Ink Vintage Walnut prior to assembly.  The bells were layered on top using Beacon 3-in-1 Craft Glue to adhere all the small pieces in place.  Phrases from Lawn Fawn and Stamping Bella's Paisley has a Prezzie were stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink, then adhered to each tag.
     
     
    Ranger Liquid Pearls were added to the flower centers and to create the berries.  Finally, May Arts Ribbon was tied to each tag.  Now just add them to your Christmas packages. 


    Thank you for visiting
