Stamping with Friends Blog Hop favourite stamp set or suite from the Jul-Dec Mini Catalog
This
week we are to showcase our favourite stamp set or suite, but I featured my
favourite last time - The Christmas Barn! But being the former farm girl I am,
I chose as second the Gathered Wheat Bundle. I need to put both of those on a
card or scrapbook page, really, but for now I have several cards I made from this
bundle The first I will show you is a 3D scene using the diorama dies and the Tree
Rings Hybrid Embossing Folder and uses the Sale-a-bration items Rings of Love
Designer Series Paper. If you get your order in before the end of August, you
can also receive the Brushed Metallic cardstock for free as well.

INSTRUCTIONS
Step 1: Score and fold the Daffodil
Delight cardstock base.
Step 2: Stamp the Wheat
Sheaf onto the Daffodil square piece with Crushed Curry ink. I found the Stamparatus
very helpful to get a detailed image since it took more than once to get the
coverage I wanted. Die-cut the sheaf.
Step 3: Stamp greeting and
cut out with scissors.
Step 4: Emboss the Soft
Suede and the Crumb Cake cardstock with the Tree Rings Hybrid Embossing Folder
Step 5: Die-cut the Soft
Suede embossed cardstock with the largest of the Diorama Dies. Die-cut the Crumb
Cake embossed cardstock with one of the smaller diorama dies. I found using the
next smallest did not show off as much of the piece as I wished so I would go
to the next one after that. Die-cut the designer series paper with the second smallest
die. (Save all the inside pieces for another card!)
Step 6: Line up the die-cut
openings the way you wish to frame your card. Then glue the Brushed Metallic
piece to the base ensuring it will cover the opening of the die-cut designer
series paper.
Step 7: Layer the diorama
die-cut pieces over each other using glue or dimensionals to pop them up.
Step 8: With dimensionals
adhere the wheat sheaf in the centre of the opening.
Step 9: Glue the greeting on
the bottom of the top die-cut piece.
Step 10: Die-cut some wheat
heads from the brushed metallic cardstock and glue these tucked between the
layers.
Step 11: Embellish with the
Solid Faceted Gems

supplies for this project on Heritage Stamp Arts website: MyProjects at https://s.tamp.in/Eeli_C
I made two other cards with
the wheat stalks. For the first one, I created a watercolour wash background,
stamped the stalks a couple of times. Cut it into thirds and glued over a Night
of Navy layer. I also stamped the greeting on a piece of the watercolour wash
background and die-cut. Then finished with die-cut butterfly and embellishments.
For the next card, I stamped
a background of wheat stalks with Crushed Curry on a Crushed Curry Cardstock
layer and the stamped the stalk again a separate piece of cardstock, which I
then die-cut. I also stamped the card base with the wheat heads, then layered
the Crushed Curry piece over the base, added the ribbon and placed the died cut
stalk over top with dimensionals, I added the greeting and some embellishments
as well as die-cut wheat heads.
What to do with those inside die-cut
pieces from the card I featured today? I made a card using 159889 Ringed with Nature Bundle (English).
I love how the one die can be used for a mushroom cap turned one way and a nut
the other. Such a cute bundle with such versality and with all the stamps, dies
and embossing folder, it is a very good value.
Now Hop on over to the next project and continue around
to see what others have as their favourite stamp set or bundle from the
July-Dec Mini!
