Angela's PaperArts: Very Best Trio punch 21st birthday card

This 21st birthday card features the new Stampin' Up! Very Best Trio punch.  I used it to create the centre Basic White card stock mat upon which the "21st" rosette was placed.

I simply rotated the Basic White card stock mat to punch the corners which gives it a less formal look as the corners are not all the same.  I then used the Labels Aglow dies to diecut the circular holes in the mat for added interest.  

The silver foil photo corners used on the card were diecut using the Fabulous Frames dies.  Sadly the designer series paper and number dies are retired.

If you've not used this punch before, you can view my tips video here.

 You can find the products used on this card in my online store.

Angela's PaperArts: Brightest Beauty Thinking of You card & video tutorial

A couple of weeks ago I made some note cards using the Stampin' Up! Brightest Beauty stamp set.  I thought I'd take it up a notch and turn it into a full sized card this time by using the Brightest Beauty bundle with its stamp set and co-ordinating dies.

I used the Stitched Greenery die to add texture onto the card base and also used the Fabulous Frames dies to frame the stamped 'wattle' image.

How to do two step for the Brightest Beauty stamp set using the Stamparatus, along with some other Stamparatus tips are demonstrated in this video.

Here's a comparison between the note cards made a couple of weeks ago and today's card.

Angela's PaperArts: Stampin' Up! Symbols of Fortune Floating Gap card & video tutorial

A few weeks ago I posted a Floating Gap card which I had made for my Mum for Mother's Day. You can see it here. As I've received a few queries about the card, I thought I'd share a short video on how to make it.

Here's the Symbols of Fortune card made during the video which features a Basic Gray, White and Gold colour scheme. 

Side view:

Front view:

I used the Fabulous Frames dies for the centre frame, but did add photo corners from this die set onto the card after the video was finished. The sentiment is from the Celebrating You stamp set. Again thanks go to Iced Images for the inspiration behind the design of my card. The floral embellishment on the card comes from the Good Fortune die set. 

Here's the video on how to make this card.  Please note it is an unedited Facebook Live replay.

              

This card is quick and easy to make and can be made for any occasion.  Why not give it a try.  If you're wondering what products were used on the Blackberry Fern version at the beginning of the video, it was the Stampin' Up! Pretty Prints Designer Series Paper, Forever Flourishing dies, Stylish Shapes dies and Celebrating You stamp set.
