Instructions:
1. Prepare the 3D Embossing pieces – emboss the Basic White Front Easel piece using the Exposed Brick 3D Embossing Folder and emboss the front Basic Black strip using the Lovely Stripes 3D Embossing Folder. Set aside.
2.
Using
the Sweet Bugs Stamp Set, stamp and color the images with Stampin’ Blends. You
will need the Caterpillar image, one of the three Tulip Plants, and two sets of
the Ants. Add Wink of Stella wherever you would like a little sparkle. After
coloring, die-cut all images using the coordinating Sweet Bugs Dies.
3.
For
the inside layer, stamp and color the Grass & Daisy image from the Sweet
Bugs Stamp Set along the bottom of the inside Basic White layer. Near the top
of the layer, stamp HELLO Friend using Tuxedo Black Memento Ink.
4.
About
2-1/2” from the top of the stamped inside layer, wrap the 5” piece of Old Olive
Specialty Rickrack around the cardstock and secure on the back with Tear and
Tape. Layer the Green Leaf Designer Series Paper from the Cute as a Bug Suite
over the ribbon, leaving the scalloped edge just visible at the bottom. Using
Stampin’ Dimensionals, adhere the colored Caterpillar and one Ant at the bottom
over the stamped grass. Add a single Lady Bug Epoxy Embellishment to the leaf
of the caterpillar. Adhere the completed layer to the inside of the Basic Black
card base using Liquid Multipurpose Glue.
5.
Layer
the Exposed Brick embossed Basic White piece onto the Poppy Parade front layer
using Liquid Multipurpose Glue.
6.
Layer
the 3” x 4” Poppy Parade Red Gingham Designer Series Paper onto the 3-1/4” x
4-1/4” Basic Black cardstock. Wrap the 4-1/4” piece of Old Olive Specialty
Rickrack around the layered cardstock and secure on the back with Tear and
Tape. Using Stampin’ Dimensionals, layer the Basic Black embossed Lovely
Stripes piece over the ribbon so the scalloped edge peeks out from the bottom
of the Basic Black cardstock. Adhere the completed piece to the center of the
Exposed Brick and Poppy Parade layer using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
7.
On
the 1-7/8” Basic White Circle, stamp Spread Joy using Tuxedo Black Memento Ink
and outline the sentiment with the Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blend. Add Wink of
Stella for extra sparkle. Using the banner piece from the Three Banner Punch
punched from Poppy Parade cardstock, cut the banner in half and adhere it to
the back of the Basic White circle, then attach the circle to the 2” Basic
Black circle using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Before adhering this piece to the
layered front from step 6, attach the stamped Tulip image to the back of the
circle. Adhere the circle to the top of the completed front easel piece, adding
five Ants as shown. Finish by adding the clear dots from the Lady Bug Epoxy
Embellishments to the Tulips. Attach the completed front easel piece to the
bottom 2-3/4” section of the card base.
