Witty-cisms



Don't miss the chance to get this stamp set with cute images - Witty-cisms!  In the 2020 January-June Mini Catalog.   ONLY AVAILABLE until JUNE 2, 2020   Item 151686

Also to be discontinued on June 2:  the 2018-2020 In Colors card stock, ink pads, and any coordinating ribbons or other embellishments.  The colors are:
Lovely Lipstick (which I used for this card), Grapefruit Grove, Pineapple Punch, Call Me Clover, Blueberry Bushel.  If these are favorites of yours, place an order soon to be sure & get just what you want.

Now let's make a card!
From the set I've chosen the Thank You Berry Much strawberry image.   I've also used the Jar of Flowers stamp set & coordinating punch, from the NEW 2020-201- Annual Catalog coming June 3.

One of my favorite In-Colors - Lovely Lipstick - is featured here, the solid cardstock (146970), Stampin' Blends (combo pack 147281), and the 6"x 6" gingham DSP (149618).   Strawberries, jars, and gingham checks just seem meant for each other!   Doesn't it bring to mind summertime?

Description & measurements:
  • Stampin' Ink Pads:  Lovely Lipstick (147140) and Gray Granite (147118)
  • Card Base:  Whisper white card stock, 11" x 4 1/4" folded at 5 1/2" (landscape fold)
  • Layer of DSP, checked Lovely Lipstick from the 6" x 6" pack - cut 5" x 3 3/4"
  • Lovely Lipstick card stock, 5 1/8" x 3 7/8".    Glue the checked DSP onto this solid Lipstick panel.
  • Strip of whisper white, 5" x 2 1/2".   Onto this, stamp the jar image in Gray Granite ink, having jars at both ends stamp off the end.
  • Stamp jar image again on another separate piece of white, then punch out the image.  You can also stamp the jar lid image, using Lovely Lipstick.
  • Stamp the strawberry image 4 times on white CS in Gray Granite.   Color the berries in using Stampin' Blends Lovely Lipstick light & dark, and Granny Apple Green.   Cut out the berries.
  • Stamp again, the strawberry image, using Lovely Lipstick ink onto a piece of white CS.  Cut off the "Berry Much" and trim the remainder down to a small squarish shape.


Assemble:
  • Glue with Multi-purpose liquid glue (110755), the checked DSP to the solid Lipstick CS.
  • Glue the strip of stamped jars to the top of this.  Glue the cut out strawberries "into" the jar.
  • Glue the single jar full of berries onto the card front, at a slight tilt.
  • Glue the "Berry Much" greeting on top of the jar full of berries.
  • Adhere a colored-in berry onto the "Thank You" portion, using Stampin' Dimensionals (104430).
  • Adhere the Thank You to card front with more Stampin' Dimensional.
  • Glue all the panel to the card base.



This Witty-cisms stamp set can be mixed with many other sets to create fun, special cards for many occasions.   Or use the images in this set on their own with equal impact.  I hope you'll find something inspiring in this blog, and that you will keep on stampin'!
