InspireInk Blog Hop May 2020 – A Sketch challenge with Botanical Prints Product Medley#stampinup

Thank you so much for dropping in today. Here I am hopping with the InspireInk girls again and this month it’s a sketch challenge. This is the sketch we had to work with.

So I decided to make a card using the remains of my Botanical Prints Product Medley.

I think I remained true to the sketch using what I had left from the Botanical Prints Product Medley. For the sentiment I used one from the Stampin’ Up! Covid give back PDF

See below for further details of that.

Please make a cuppa and have a look at the projects from my fellow demonstrators I know they will be full of great ideas. I hope we have inspired you to get crafting too.

Help us make a difference! Purchase a downloadable PDF packed with both lighthearted and heartfelt sentiments and images designed to share sunshine. We’ll donate 100% of proceeds to COVID-19 related charities. #ShareSunshine #SUDifferenceMaker

Nicky’s Large Card Folio #stampinup

So I have a craft sharing group on Facebook and a couple of weeks ago one of my crafting friends posted a these pictures of a card folio she had made for a relative.

I decided to give it a go and there is a video of me doing just that further down this post. Nicky kindly gave me her measurements and permission to do a tutorial for you all. The measurements are further down this post.

I found when I moved the folio that the cards fell out so I made these 1 inch wide straps to keep them in. I have used neodymium magnets to keep them closed and also on the flap.

A Wee Gift Box using scraps of Bird Ballad Designer Series Paper #stampinup

scored on the long side at 1.5 inches, 5 inches and 6.5 inches

scored on the short side at 1.5 inches, 3 inches, 4.5 inches and 6 inches

4 panels of Designer Series Paper 1 3/8 ths x 3 3/8ths and 1 square 1 3/8ths x 1 3/8ths inch.
