Hi there friends!
Today I am sharing my design team project for CRAFT Challenge Blog #786. The theme is summer holiday/vacation. The sponsor for this challenge is All Dressed Up and the design I am working with is: Sandy Beach Camper.
Basic Supplies (specifics are listed below)
- printer
- alcohol markers
- scissors
- paper trimer
- brown ink
- beachy embossing folder (Mine is by Diamond Press and is discontinued)
- Die cut/embossing machine (I use a Sizzix Big Shot)
- summer sentiment
- adhesive foam
- corner punch
- circle die (or can be cut with an electronic cutter such as a Silhouette Cameo or Cricut)
- A2 card base
- white cardstock for printing
- light brown cardstock for embossing
- sequins or gems, optional
Instruction
- Download the design and bring into your cutter's software.
- Size it to fit on an A2 card base.
- Either print the design on cardstock and trim with a paper trimmer or use the Print and Cut feature with the software to do that on cardstock.
- Color with alcohol markers.
- Round corners with corner punch or scissors.
- Use a circle die to cut out part of the design. Mine is intentional off-center to put the camper in the center.
- Add adhesive foam to the circle and set that and the remaining piece aside.
- Using a tan piece of cardstock, add brown ink to one side of the beachy embossing folder and send through your die cut machine.
- Trim embossing paper to fit on your A2 card. I trim to 4 x 5.25 inches. Adhere in place
- Adhere the square piece to the embossed piece.
- Adhere the circle piece in its place in the square piece.
- Stamp or die cut a summer sentiment and adhere to the card in your chosen location.
- Add an inside sentiment or message.
