Good morning, y’all! Happy Tuesday. I hope your week is going well so far!
I pulled out THREE new goodies – all unrelated to the others – from the 2024-2025 Annual Catalog for today’s Sneaky Peek birthday card! The Leaf Collection stamp is a cool background stamp – that ALL OnStage attendees got for FREE while we were in Houston! Yeah for free stamp sets, am I right?! I also used the Loveliest Tree stamp set and – my new go-to – the Unbounded Love die set. Take a look-see:
The layout for this one was inspired by the MFT Sketch Challenge this week.
I made a quick video on how to make this one – and posted it on Instagram this morning. You can see it on YouTube right here!
I started with the Leaf Collection stamp. I set the stamp rubber-side-up on my stamping surface and, using my Granny Apple Green ink pad, I colored one corner of the stamp by tap tap tapping the ink pad onto the stamp. Next, I colored the other corner in the same way with the Garden Green ink pad.
Then I spritzed the stamp twice with water using my Stampin’ Spritzer.
I set a panel of Very Vanilla cardstock on top of the wet stamp and rubbed all over it to transfer the image.
I used a Heat Tool to dry the panel and then, using the largest Deckled Rectangle die – cut out a card front.
Using the THIRD-from-largest Deckled Rectangle, I cut from the middle of the card front. Note: if you’re feeling spicy, you can put this die in place and cut it at the SAME time that you cut the LARGE rectangle!
I adhered the remaining “frame” to the front of my Pretty in Pink card base using Liquid Glue.
Using the Second-from-Largest Deckled Rectangle, I cut out a Pretty in Pink mat – to which I adhered the smaller panel that I’d cut from the Leaf Collection-stamped panel using Liquid Glue.
I popped the matted panel in place with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I used the Unbounded Love frame die to cut out the Pretty in Pink frame and adhered it to the card front with Liquid Glue.
I stamped a Loveliest Tree sentiment…
…in Granny Apple Green on a piece of Very Vanilla and cut it with the larger circle die in Unbounded Love set.
I adhered the sentiment over the frame with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
It felt like it had been a minute since I used a double-loop Linen Thread bow so…I remedied that! I tied the bow and adhered it with Liquid Glue. Note: if you’d like to see a short video on how to make the Double Loop Linen Thread Bow – check it out right here!
I added some Pretty in Pink dots from the 2024-2026 In Colored Resin Dots (coming in the new catalog in May!) and the card front was done.
On the inside, I stamped the little leaf image from Loveliest Tree in Granny Apple Green ink in the corner of the Very Vanilla panel.
I used Liquid Glue to adhere the panel to the inside of the Pretty in Pink card base and the card was done!
My Very Vanilla Medium Envelope got the Loveliest Tree leaves in Granny Apple Green on the front…
…and again on the envelope flap.
Et Voila! I am a big fan of background stamps – and this Leaf Collection stamp is really pretty and fun! I love the blended coloring! The new Loveliest Tree stamp set – there’s a bundled die set, too! – is very pretty (and reminiscent of the much-loved Lovely as a Tree stamp set from several years ago!). And… Unbounded Love is destined to be a sentiment-making workhorse for you!
I hope you like!
