Best Dressed - stepped up
Here are the details for our final project this week using the Best Dressed bundle.
I love the simple colours used on this project and the black and white stripes too. In fact I love everything about it - it's very chic I think!
To create the Best Dress Card
Smoky Slate 21 cm x 21 cm scored at 10.5 cm
Basic Black 6 cm x 15 cm
DSP 5.5 cm 14.5 cm
WW 11 cm x 8.5 cm (inside)
WW thick small piece to stamp on
Real Red scrap
Adhere the DSP to the black card with double sided tape and then adhere to the card front.
To create the elements
Using Memento ink, stamp a perfume bottle and a lipstick onto thick ww card and cut out with the coordinating dies. Colour with Stampin' Blends.
I used the Stitched So Sweetly to create a panel for the sentiment. I stamped the sentiment with Stazon ink and added a punched heart from Real Red card and added a jewel for a bit of sparkle. The punch I used is sadly retired (Itty Bitty Punches) but, you could perhaps use a small flower punch instead if you don't have a heart shaped one.
I used regular ww card to create a panel for the inside of the card, stamping images with Memento and colouring with Stampin' Blends as before.
To Assemble the Card
I used dimensionals to adhere all the elements to the front of the card. The sentiment has Tombow on the left of the panel and dimensionals on the right.
Adhere the inside panel with double sided tape.
Here is the competed card and envelope.
I stamped images on the envelope too but did not colour in. I wish SU would start selling DL sized envelopes. The ones I bought to use are good quality but they are not a patch on the ones I am used to using from SU!
With all classes and workshops cancelled for the foreseeable future I will continue to share project ideas as and when I can. If you would like to see projects made using a particular stamp set let me know and if I own it, I will be happy to share projects and inspiration with you.
I am currently coordinating assistance for the elderly who live in Godmanchester and it is looking like it will be a full time task for some time. It may take me a little longer to reply to messages than usual so, please bear with me.
Stay safe and well.
