March's Card Tutorial

Label Me Punch Ribbon Slider



Punches are one of my go-to crafting tools. They make adding a greeting or accent quick and simple. It's even better when you have a couple punches that are designed to layer and coordinate like the Label Me Fancy (#151297) and Label Me Lovely (#151296) Punches from the Spring Mini.

Each punch is great on it's own and the Label Me Fancy Punch does triple-duty since it also has hole and slit punches. Combined they make creating tags, labels, and accents a cinch. I'm excited to share a not-so-obvious use for these punches. 
In this tutorial you'll learn how to create a ribbon slide! This card also features the gorgeous Tropical Oasis Designer Series Paper (#151252) and coordinating Timeless Tropical stamp and die bundle (#153811). 



I think together they'll make a fabulous stamper-style tropical punch!

Stampin' Up! Inspiration Project-Label Me Punch Ribbon Slider-Label Me Punch Ribbon Slider

1. Cut & Stamp

Cut Thick Whisper White cardstock to 4-1/4" x 11". Score at 5-1/2" along the 11" side. Stamp the small flower image from the Timeless Tropical stamp set several times at the top left and bottom right of the card with Daffodil Delight ink.

Stampin' Up! Inspiration Project-Label Me Punch Ribbon Slider

2. Die Cut Leaves

Die cut scrap Old Olive cardstock with the two small solid leaf images from the In The Tropics dies. These dies cut and emboss. Cut 3 leaves total. Sponge the top and edges of leaves with Old Olive ink to enhance the embossing.

3. Stamp & Punch

Stamp greeting from the Timeless Tropics stamp set on So Saffron cardstock with Tuxedo Black Memento ink. Punch out greeting with the Label Me Fancy Punch. Sponge edges with Daffodil Delight ink.

Stampin' Up! Inspiration Project-Label Me Punch Ribbon Slider

4. Create a Ribbon Slider

Cut Real Red cardstock to 2-1/2" x 3". Hold the Label Me Fancy punch upside down so you see the punching area. Hold cardstock in the portrait position. Slide into the right edge of the punch until it is just even with the punch edge. Make sure the bottom edge of the paper is all the way down into the punch. Punch the slit from the cardstock.

Stampin' Up! Inspiration Project-Label Me Punch Ribbon Slider

5. Ribbon Slider Second Step

Remove the cardstock and flip (not rotate) it over so the same bottom edge stays down. Place the opposite edge back into the punch from the right side just like the first time. Mack sure bottom edge is all the way into the punch. Punch another slit. Remove cardstock The slits should be opposite each other and level with each each other.

Stampin' Up! Inspiration Project-Label Me Punch Ribbon Slider

6. Ribbon Slider Third Step

Hold the Label Me Lovely Punch upside down so you see the punch area. Slide the cardstock with the slits into the punch with the same bottom edge all the way down into the punch. Use the putty tip of the Take Your Pick Tool to maneuver the cardstock until the slits are centered evenly in the punch and then punch it out.

Stampin' Up! Inspiration Project-Label Me Punch Ribbon Slider

7. Ribbon Slider Last Step

Cut a 7" piece of Crushed Curry 3/8" Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon. Thread the ribbon down through one punched slit and up through the other. The side with little ribbon showing will be the front of the ribbon slider.

Stampin' Up! Inspiration Project-Label Me Punch Ribbon Slider

8. Layer & Add Ribbon

Adhere a 3" x 5-1/2" piece of Tropical Oasis Designer Series Paper to a 3-1/4" x 5-1/2" piece of Real Red Cardstock. Add adhesive to the back of the cardstock at the top and bottom and use it to hold the ribbon ends behind. Adhere the layers to the card about 1/8" from the left edge.

Stampin' Up! Inspiration Project-Label Me Punch Ribbon Slider

9. Embellish

Add the stamped and punched greeting to the ribbon slider with Stampin' Dimensionals. Use Glue Dots to adhere the die cut leaves under the bottom left and top right edges of the greeting. The ribbon slider card is now ready to send along a happy aloha!

The Mini Catalogue Inspiration

Tropical Oasis Suite

The Tropical Oasis Suite is the perfect way to take yourself on a tropical vacation, if only in your imagination! The Timeless Tropical stamp (#151497) set is blooming with classic island images like hibiscus flowers, palm trees and pineapple. The coordinating In the Tropics Dies (#151495) cut out the stamp images, but also include additional coordinating images that make crafting beautiful projects as easy as a stroll on the beach!

The coordinating Tropical Oasis Designer Series Paper (#151252) is a gorgeous explosion of colour while the Coastal Weave 3D Embossing Folder (#151503) and Tropical Oasis Trinkets (#151253) add the perfect splash of texture and detail.

This lovely card features watercoloring, ink splatter, and a textured background created with die cut flowers. I think you'll bask in the lovely colors and enjoy a little mental vacation while you create this beauty!

Sincerely,
ShonaGai

Sale-A-Bration Coordination Product Release


Sale-A-Bration Coordination Product Release

Sale-A-Bration Coordination Product Release

Most of us have a favourite outfit that mixes and matches and feels just right. Or the perfect food pairing that we crave. Well, just like fashion and food, crafting is sweeter when you have the perfect combinations. Stampin' Up! has made favourites from the Mini Catalogue and Sale-A-Bration reward items even better with new coordinating products!

The popular Sale-A-Bration reward stamp set, Happy Birthday To You (#152308), is awesome on it's own, but paired with the coordinating Birthday Dies (#153590) you can do so much more! No more fussy cutting the adorable animals and balloons from the Special Someone stamp set (#151643), just get the coordinating framelits and crafting sweet cards is faster and easier.

If you are like me and many of my stamping friends, and have a punch addiction, then you'll want to get your inky fingers on the new Pleased As Punch Designer Series Paper (#153558). It coordinates with 4 different punches!

I think you can see why I'm so excited by these new coordinating products! They are only available until March 31st or while supplies last. I'm predicting some will sell out, so don't wait, get your new coordinating favourites today!

Sincerely,
ShonaGai
