Stampin' Dreams Blog Hop - Throwback Thursday / Stamping With Melva

Stampin' Dreams Blog Hop - Throwback Thursday

Thursday, 11 August 2022

Time for another Stampin' Dreams Blog Hop! Our theme this month is Throwback Thursday. Time to share a remake of a card or project that we made in the past or someone else shared. I've CASE'd my cards today from a project that Sara Douglass, CEO of Stampin' Up! shared awhile ago. I love these envelopes made from a 6" x 12" piece of Designer Series Paper and the inserts that coordinate.

I used the Awash In Beauty Designer Series Paper on my cards and envelopes. Aren't they pretty! And so easy!

Instructions

Cut Designer Series Paper 6" x 12" and score at 2" and 7 3/4" along 6" side and at 3/4" and 5 1/4" along 12" side
Fold on score lines.
Cut along 3/4" score line to the 7 3/4" scoreline and then cut from the edge to the 3/4" scoreline - to remove the bottom flap.
Repeat on the other side - this removes the bottom flaps on both sides
Cut along 3/4" score line to the 2" scoreline and then cut from the edge to the 3/4" scoreline - to remove the top flap.
Repeat on the other side - this removes the top flaps on both sides
Cut a triangle from top and bottom of each of the side flaps to remove excess paper.
Fold the bottom flap up and adhere to the sides
With the Very Best Trio Punch, cut corners in the top flap (2" flap)
Cut Rich Razzleberry card stock 4 1/4" x 5 1/2"
Cut Basic White card stock 4" x 5 1/4"
Cut Designer Series Paper 1" x 4" and adhere to the top of the Basic White cardstock
Stamp sentiment below Designer Series Paper using Rich Razzleberry ink
Stamp flower using Tuxedo Black Memento Ink in bottom left corner
Colour with Melon Mambo Stampin' Blends
Adhere to the Rich Razzleberry card stock
Adhere embellishments
Insert into envelope
