Remind your friends to get out there and explore with this fun card! To start, gather your supplies together. Cut out a card base from Basic White Cardstock. Take a camper card base and cut it apart to separate the camper layer from the other design layers. Separate the water-colored tree from the sentiment label die-cut piece by trimming it off. Keep the sentiment label piece for stamping. Use the fir texture stamp on the die-cut tree with the Garden Green Classic Stampin’ Spot.
Take your trimmed sentiment label and stamp the “explore” sentiment from the The Adventure Begins Stamp Set with the Garden Green Classic Stampin’ Spot. Make sure to tidy up the edges of your sentiment label so that it is all white. Once you have all your designed pieces ready, layer them together on top of the Basic White card and adhere with dimensionals to create this gorgeous frame card.
Supplies: The Adventure Begins Paper Pumpkin Kit; Basic White Cardstock
What better way to send encouragement than filling up this treat box? You’ll first need to score out a box from the background layer of the lantern card base. When scoring, make sure the bottom of the box is 1/8" smaller than the lid. Assemble your box and adhere together with adhesive dots.
Create a sleeve by trimming Petal Pink cardstock to wrap around the box. Trim some of the designed card base to the same length but a smaller width to layer on top of the Petal Pink sleeve. Adhere trimmed pieces on to one another, wrap around the box, and secure at the back with adhesive dots.
Using the The Adventure Begins Stamp Set, stamp the tree image onto Petal Pink Cardstock with Soft Succulent ink and stamp the fir texture on top with Evening Evergreen ink. Cut out your stamped tree image. On a circle die-cut piece, stamp the “Let Your Light Shine” sentiment in Evening Evergreen ink.
After filling up your box with treats, slide the sleeve over the box and tie the Crumb Cake baker’s twine around the sleeve three times. Layer the stamped tree and the “Let Your Light Shine” sentiment and adhere with dimensionals. To finish off your treat box, decorate with a few round silver Silver & Clear Epoxy Essentials.
Supplies: The Adventure Begins Photopolymer Stamp Set (included); printed card base (included); Basic White and Petal Pink Cardstock; Evening Evergreen and Soft Succulent Classic Stampin’ Pads; Baker’s Twine Essentials Pack; Silver & Clear Epoxy Essentials; adhesive dots (included); dimensionals (included)
Wow your loved ones with this simple yet stunning card. Start by trimming off the tree from the sentiment label die cut and cut out a card base from Basic White Cardstock. Stamp the line texture onto the tree die-cut piece with Night of Navy ink. Using the Adorning Designs Decorative Masks, lay the snowflake mask on the card base and stipple on Pool Party ink with the blending brushes to create frosty snowflake background. Then, stamp the “The World Awaits You” sentiment in Night of Navy on Basic White Cardstock and trim.
Gather all your designed pieces, plus the light green tree die cuts, and layer them on top of the card base. Adhere with your Stampin’ Seal+ and dimensionals. Sprinkle some Gingerbread & Peppermint Acrylic Shapes over the card to embellish and adhere.
