Do you love to build your own scene when it comes to card making? At this weekend’s classes we had lots of fun with the Grace’s Garden Bundle and did just that.
I designed two simple but gorgeous cards (attendees opinions) together with one that is completely over the top with a fancy fold and lots of die cutting. Also gorgeous according to the attendees.
The simple card (above) has both the cat and flowers stamped and coloured directly onto a piece of Thick Whisper White. The sentiment was die cut using the smallest die from the Stitched So Sweetly Dies. The bird stamp in the Grace’s Garden stamp set has a coordinating die in the Garden Gateway Dies. It’s pretty small so you need to be careful not to lose it.
The fun fold card is a basic Z Fold card, but then I went to town with stamping and die cutting the fence and flowers. When the card is closed it fits into a normal UK sized C6 envelope. And, the two stitched circles form the centre of the archway.

Shop the UK Beta web-site instead of the main Stampin’ Up! UK site. If you would rather have a 20% discount instead of free Sale-A-Bration items then this is the place to you. Make sure that the site shows me as your demonstrator because you can still take part of my Sale-A-Bration Sensation Event if your order (after discount and before P&P) is £45 or more. Of course, if you enjoy the discount so much you can also join the Crafting Acorns.
