Trip Achievers Blog Hop - November 2022

Monday, 21 November 2022

Welcome to the Trip Achievers Blog Hop. I am so honoured to be participating in this Blog Hop and I am so thankful for the support I received from my Customers and Team Members so that I could achieve this trip**! Thank you so much! We're off on a cruise to the Norwegian Fjords in May 2023!

Today I'm sharing a card I created using the Stampin' Up! Apple Harvest Stamp Set. I love this stamp set. I think my colouring makes the apples look more like peaches, but it's still pretty! I deconstructed the Natural Woven ribbon to create a frayed effect to finish off the card.

Instructions

Cut Thick Basic White cardstock 4 1/4" x 11" and score at 5 1/2". Fold and burnish on score line with Bone Folder to form card base.
Cut largest Scalloped Rectangle from Garden Green DSP and adhere to card base
Cut 2nd largest Scalloped Rectangle from Basic White cardstock
Stamp image on rectangle using Tuxedo Black Memento ink
Colour using Stampin' Blends - Granny Apple Green, Old Olive, Crumb Cake, Daffodil Delight and Real Red
Adhere to card base using Dimensionals
Cut 4" of Ribbon and then cut the bottom edge off. Fray using the Take your Pick Tool
Adhere to the bottom of the rectangle on the card base.
Stamp sentiment on a scrap of Basic White cardstock using Tuxedo Black Memento ink
Cut into smaller parts
Adhere over ribbon using Dimensionals
Cut DSP 1" x 4 1/4" and adhere to the bottom of the inside of the card.

You can find all of the supplies for this card in my Online Store.
