Stampin' Up! Petal Promenade Designer Series Paper

Stampin' Up! Laser-Cut Specialty Paper

Pairing yet another Designer Series Paper with Lase-Cut Paper- and Die cuts add a soft, feminine feel to this card.  Again using the Beautifully Detailed Laser-Cut Specialty Paper Pack.  Today I'm also showcasing the Petal Promenade Designer Series Paper and one of the butterflies from the Butterfly Beauty Thinlit Dies set.  Although the Butterflies in the die set are connected, I chose to use just one of the connected set and found it easy to separate from the entire, large set.  The Petal Promenade Designer Series Paper is featured in the  Stampin' Up! annual catalog.   






The basecard for today's card is Fresh Fig.  Then I added a layer of Petal Promenade Designer Series Paper.  Then I attached the white side of one of the designs from the Beautifully Detailed Laser-Cut Specialty Paper.  To adhere this delicate laser-cut layer I placed, as I've explained in earlier posts, the laser-cut paper on my silicone craft sheet, added glue to a sponge, and then --without moving the Laser-cut paper-- sponged glue to the back side.  Then I added it to the card front  This technique is easier than trying to add glue runner to the back side of the delicate laser-cut paper and it is easier than than trying to add glue to these delicate cut pieces.      

  

The sentiment is from the Accented Blooms Stamp Set and it is stamped on Whisper White using Fresh Fig ink.  Then punched out using the Tailored Tag punch. 

The White butterfly is two layer of Whisper White die cut using one of the dies from the Butterfly Beauty Thinlits Dies.               



When I added the tulle ribbon, I found it didn't show up well against the laser-cut paper, so I first added a layer of Fresh Fig 3/8 Mini Ruffled Ribbon.  However, I could have just added a small strip of Fresh Fig cardstock, but the ribbon was already cut, so I used that.  In the photo above, you can see the other sentiment available in the Accented Blooms stamp set.  You'll want to get the coordinating Tailored Tag Punch when you purchase this stamp set. 

With Easter, Passover, Mother's Day, and graduations coming up.  This is a great card to create to thank those who invited you or remembered you.  For more ideas for using Petal Promenade Designer Series Paper, check out the tutorials on my Tutorial tab.

More Beautifully Detailed Laser-Cut Specialty Paper

  • Beautifully Detailed Laser-Cut Specialty Paper
  • Well Written Framelits Dies create beautiful sentiments

Stampin' Up! Laser-Cut Specialty Paper

I'm still amazed by how many Laser-Cut designs are included in the Beautifully Detailed Laser-Cut Specialty Paper Pack.  Today I'm pairing the Petal Pink Laser-Cut design with Crumb Cake paper and the wooden Butterfly Elements many of you acquired during Sale-A-Bration.  I colored my wooden Butterfly Elements by sponging Crumb Cake ink onto the wooden surface.   The specialty Laser Cut Paper is Petal Pink on one side and white on the other side.  And I love that there are 4 sheets of 2 different designs -- 8 sheets total.  I grabbed several packages of both the Stampin' Up! Laser-Cut Specialty Paper and the Petal Promenade Designer Series Paper when they were offered as free Sale-A-Bration selections last month, but you can purchase both of these items from the Stampin' Up! annual catalog. I'm casing this card from the very talented  Linda Dalke from Australia.  







The basecard for today's card is Crumb Cake.  Then I attached the Petal Pink Beautifully Detailed Laser-Cut Specialty Paper.  To adhere this delicate laser-cut layer I placed the laser-cut paper on my silicone craft sheet, added glue to a sponge, and then --without moving the Laser-cut paper-- sponged ink to the back side.  Then I added it to the card front.      

  

The sentiment is die cut from Copper Foil Sheet using the Well Written Framelits.  The sentiment label is die cut using one of the Needlepoint Elements Framelits Dies. As I mentioned earlier, the wooden Butterfly Elements was sponged with Crumb Cake ink to stand out better from the background.               




The wooden Butterfly Elements is topped with a double bow made from the Old Olive Linen thread, and the center includes an adhesive-backed Grapefruit Grove Gingham Gala Sequins.  The are several sentiments that can be substituted for the one used on these cards.  The well-written Framelits Dies includes 14 different words, and works with the Well Said stamp set. .  You'll love personalizing the design to meet your needs.  Think how happy you would make someone's if they received this beautiful card from you.
