Poor Pam the Pampered Stamper is poorly so you have a second post from me this week, and I have stretched the theme a tiny little bit.
The card is a normal shape but it is in a funky bag, with a gift!
I have to thank Stampy Gwen from The Stamp Pad for the idea
Gwen give me this about a year ago and I had been looking for a reason to make one! (and I didn’t even have to pull it to pieces to work it out, which I am very pleased about, it did take a couple of goes to work it out)
first I started with an 8 x 8 inch square, and folded it in half along the diagonal
then I added 2 more score lines either side of the centre line
then I marked a 10cm centre portion, my Very Useful Ruler is perfect for this
I have drawn in the lines so that you can see them but just score them.
and fold in both sides.
then fold up.
My real one shows up the contrast from using double sided paper this is Roundabout
here you can see where I have taped it.
I decorated with some Peach Grosgrain ribbon.
When making the card I cut my Mixed Media to fit the space. Placed the stamps on.
Then added the block
and stamped! The stamps are Just Words Birthday Kisses and Ranunculus from Jane Gill.
When finished you have a double sided pouch
I made a card for each side and added some earrings
The flower is white and I have coloured it with the ink and added a brad and Steampunk Butterfly.
This finishes off one side
and I have completed it with a bow.
So thanks to Pam I got around to making this and thanks to Stampy Gwen for the idea!
See you soon
