Global Design Project #082

The Sketch for the Global Design Project #082 is definitly one you can use for any occasion or theme.

I decided to go with a fall theme.

 I started off by using my Big Shot and some scrap Baked Brown Sugar card stock to cut out some Stiched Leaves.

 Here is how I store my scraps of Stampin Up card stock.

I keep alot of sizes in here especially if it is retired.

I had a scrap big enough to use a Striped Background stamp as well.

This makes not cutting into the regular sheets easier.

 I do not know where I got this cart but it is awsome.

I have my Stampin Up card stock stored on top, the full sheets flat and the scraps up in a page protector.

I also cut a page protector on one side so that I can place the full sheets in it and then slip the other page protector in front so they are together.

 I am using the Hampton Art Stamp Perfect tool to stamp my stripped back ground with cordinating ink.

 It is still a little wet in this photo but I stamped it twice.

 The leaves on the right I inked with the cordinating ink and the one on the left is not inked.

Look at that difference.

 I am using a 110 pound Cream card stock as my card base as a top fold card as well.

I also have a scrap of the Cream and using my grid mat to see where I need to trim the scrap.

 Using the Stamp Perfect tool again to stamp Happy Thanksgiving in the same ink.

 Taking a Kraft Knife and making a slit at the top to thread some Thrift Store Cream twine threw.

 I put one foam on each leaf and added foam to the back of the panel as well.

I wrapped the twine around three times.

 Thankfully I did not press too hard and was able to remove the panel because I decided I did not want a bow like the sketch.

I added some tape to hold the ends down and placed it where the panel would hide it.

 The extra leaf I added inside and I also had some extra of the striped paper so I added it to the inside as well.

 More stripped and the back of the card.

Finished Card.

I love this design and know I will use it often.

This card took under 30 minutes to make and would be easy to mass produce.
