One of my favorite things about being a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator is participating in Team Swaps with the other Demos in our group. One of my team leaders hosted two different swaps at a recent team event and I joined in for both. Swap #1 was featuring a new stamp set or bundle in the new 2019-2020 Annual Catalog. Keep reading to see the card I made and learn how to make your own.
To begin, cut a sheet of Pacific Point cardstock to 11″ x 4-1/4″ and score in half (at 5-1/2″ on the long side). Fold in half and stamp the sequin image from the It Starts With Art stamp set all over the card front with Pacific Point ink.
Take a piece of Whisper White cardstock and die cut one of the Stitched Rectangle Dies (measuring 3-1/8″ x 1-13/16″). Stamp the coloring tools image in the center of the rectangle using the Memento Black ink pad. Color in as desired with the Stampin’ Blends (I used Calypso Coral light and dark and Smoky Slate light and dark). Once colored, die cut out with the coordinating die from the Arts & Crafts Dies.
Adhere the rectangle (with the missing die cuts) to a 3-3/4″ x 2-1/2″ piece of Follow Your Art Designer Series Paper (DSP). Add this layered piece to the card front centered across and towards the top. Add in the die cut coloring tools with Mini Dimensionals to their corresponding locations.
To finish up, stamp the sentiment on a scrap of Whisper White cardstock with Calypso Coral ink. Punch out with the 1-3/8″ Scallop Circle Punch. Add this piece to the lower right corner of the rectangle with Dimensionals.
I really enjoyed making a bunch of these cards for our Team Swap. My other swap card will be in a separate post. So check back soon to see that one.
Happy making!
