Good morning and happy happy Hawwmmmp Day!! Hope you’re having a great time – saving money on beautiful papers and buying up great new kits and “spending” those Bonus Days coupons! Whoo-hoo!!
Just a scheduling note – at some point today – the Big Brown Truck will roll into my driveway with my Pre-Order from the new Sep – Dec 2024 Mini Catalog! Once I sort of make sense of it all – I’ll be going live on my YouTube channel with a sneaky peek! So…be watching for a notice – I’ll try to give you a heads up, okay!? 😎
My card today is a super cute one – using a set that I’d bet…a little money!…that you overlooked (one might even say….FLEW over?!) or…dismissed as just for kids. I respectfully request that you take a second look at the cute Flying By stamp set – and see what happens when you do a little quick fussy cutting and add some fun paper – like the Bright & Beautiful 6″ x 6″ DSP (on sale NOW!). Take a look-see:
I did a quick video on how to make this one, which is posted on Instagram. You can see it on YouTube right here!
I started by adhering some star-strewn paper from the Bright & Beautiful 6″ x 6″ DSP to the front of my Azure Afternoon card base using Liquid Glue.
I cut a second piece of the DSP and – using the next-to-smallest square Stylish Shapes die – cut three windows in the paper.
I placed a slightly-smaller piece of Basic White cardstock behind the DSP and used a pencil to lightly outline where the windows would be.
Using the two cloud images in the Flying By set, I stamped Balmy Blue clouds onto the Basic White – a couple “in” each window.
I set the DSP panel back in place on the white cardstock and stamped the Flying By “hello” sentiment in Blueberry Bushel ink – ensuring that part of the “flight-path” was inside the window.
I erased all my pencil lines and used Stampin’ Dimensionals to adhere the DSP panel over the Basic White panel.
Using Liquid Glue, I adhered the panel to the front of the card base.
On a piece of Basic White cardstock, I stamped three paper airplanes from Flying By in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink. Then I used Paper Snips to fussy cut the three planes.
Using Stampin’ Dimensionals – I adhered a plane into each window. Note: I made sure that the middle plane was aligned with the “flight-path”.
I added a few Adhesive-backed Dots for Days and the card front was done!
On the inside, I stamped a few paper planes and clouds on a piece of Basic White cardstock. Using the bullet-tip of my Blueberry Bushel Stampin’ Write Marker, I added free-hand “flight-paths”.
I used Liquid Glue to adhere the panel to the inside of the Azure Afternoon card base and the card was done!
My Basic White Medium Envelope got a Flying By paper airplane and clouds – and a freehand “flight-path” on the front…
…and more of the Bright & Beautiful 6″ x 6″ DSP on the envelope flap.
Et Voila! I had a hard time choosing between the paper airplane and the cute little UFO in the Flying By set – I think you could use EITHER one on this card and it would be perfect! And the Bright & Beautiful 6″ x 6″ DSP – have I mentioned that it’s on SALE this month! – is such fun and cheerful paper – it’ll add a smile to ANY card!
