“Wish Big” card with the Word Play stamp set & Celebrations DP

Posted on: Monday, August 2nd, 2010

Well, our “vacation” is over. All in all we had a fantastic time, but now that we’re home, “crunch” time is all of a sudden hitting full force.  There are just SO many things to do, and not enough time.  Isn’t that always the way it is though?

Today’s card is a fast and easy card which focuses on this fun number pattern from the Celebrations DP collection.  When I first saw it, I immediately fell in love with it and thought it would be just perfect for a birthday card.  Here’s how I made today’s card:

  1. Take a 5 1/4″ x 10 1/2″ piece of textured Real Red CS and fold it in half with a bone folder.
  2. Center and stick a 4″ x 4″ piece of DP to a 4 1/4″ x 4 1/4″ piece of Certainly Celery DP.
  3. Center and stick the matted DP to the card front.
  4. Cut a 1 1/2″ x 2 3/4″ piece of Whisper White CS and round the top and bottom corners on the left side with a 1/2″ corner punch. 
  5. Stamp the greeting from the Wish Big stamp set in Basic Black Classic ink onto the Whisper White CS piece.
  6. Stick three large red rhinestones, one above the other, along the right hand side of the Whisper White CS greeting piece.
  7. Stick the Whisper White greeting piece towards the bottom right of the DP using Stampin’ Dimensionals – about 1/2″ up from the bottom edge of the Certainly Celery CS piece and about 1/8″ away from the right hand edge of the card.  You’re done!

P.S. We haven’t had time to create the post with the Class & Workshop Planner and the Give-Away yet – that will come out either tonight or tomorrow.
