Today I’m mixing it up a bit and using both the Friend Like Me stamp set and the coordinating Friendly Silhouette Dies. The dies and stamp set are available as a bundle but both also work great independently. The dies are designed to compliment the stamp set. It’s only the dragonfly images that you can cut out with the dies.
Instructions for this mixing it up card
- Soft Suede card base – 14.9 x 21.0 cm scored and folded in half at 10.5 cm
- Crumb Cake panel – 10.0 x 14.4 cm glued to the card front.
- Whisper White panel – 9.5 x 13.9 cm
- Score on all fours sides at 0.5, 1.0, and 1.5 cm
- Stamp twice the grasses and stems in Granny Apple Green and then stamp the flower heads and rushes in Soft Suede.
- Die cut a piece of Granny Apple Green card using the reeds and rushes die. TIP – place the die along the edge of the card stock so you don’t need to trim the bottom down.
- Trim the die cut down so that it is just as long as the stamped images.
- Using a Dark Soft Suede Stampin’ Blend colour the reeds on the die.
- Stamp sentiment in Soft Suede.
- Fix the die cut over the bottom of the stamped image using dimensionals (foam pads).
- Glue Whisper White panel to the card front.
- Stamp dragonflies in Coastal Cabana, die cut out and adhere to card front using dimensionals.
- Whisper White panel – 10.0 x 14.4 cm.
- Glue rest of Granny Apple Green die to the panel.
- Adhere the panel to the inside of the card.
Here’s the finished mixing it up card. Hope you like it.
