Weekend Adventure Cards

On our Stamp, Crop & Cruise Retreat to Alaska, I gave all the stampers the option of 6 cards or 6 scrapbook pages for one of the class projects.  This class project, whether it was the set of cards or scrapbook pages, featured the Weekend Adventure Designer Series Paper.

The set of 6 cards used sentiments from the Loveliest Trees stamp set and the Adventure Together stamp set.

The first three cards all used the Everyday Arches Dies to create the rounded banner strips.

The sentiments were stamped on Basic Beige with Early Espresso ink.  The sentiment Die-cuts are from the Textured Notes Dies.

The Old Olive leafy die-cut on the first three cards is from the Pretty Florals Dies.

The last three cards feature the pine trees stamped in Old Olive from the Adventure Together Bundle.

Different techniques of paper piecing were used on these three cards.

All six cards in this set were embellished with Linen Thread bows and a few of the Muted Pallett Dots.

The scrapbook pages used the Weekend Adventure DSP & Sticker Sheet as well as the 12″ x 12″ two-toned cardstock for the pages themselves.  More leafy die-cuts from the Pretty Floral Dies and the Beautiful Motifs Dies.

We used the same basic layout for the scrapbook pages as we did the cards.

Gallery Blooms Fun Fold Cards

The 5th project from my Stamp, Crop & Cruise Retreat to Alaska was a set of Fun Fold cards featuring the Gallery Blooms stamp set and the Woven Textures Designer Series Paper.  Each of the four cards featured a different fun fold.

The images from the Gallery Bloom were stamped with Memento Ink and colored in with Colored Pencils, then blended with the water painters.  The sentiments came from the Beautiful Motifs stamp set.

The first card is a 3-panel card cut on the diagonal with a different image on each panel.

Each card is embellished with the Strawberry Slush & Pretty in Pink Gems which all my guests received in their embellishments box that was packed in their craft box.

The forth and final card in this set  was created in portrait landscape orientation, while the other three cards were all in portrait orientation.

This fun fold is a great way to use up the 12’x 12″ designer Paper because the woven basket print measures 12″ x 4″
