2013-15 In Colour Collection Makes Part 5

Today's makes are a card and an open/closed banner for my toy shop made using the Hearts A Flutter Stamp Set and matching framelits:

Wood  131922  £22.95

Clear  129252  £17.95

Framelits  130159  £20.95

There are 8 stamps i the set and 5 matching framelits.  They are so simple to use together.  First stamp you image on to your card and then cut out using your Big Shot (113439  £87.95).  To make it really easy why not use the new Big Shot Magnetic Platform (13058  £35.95) to keep the framelits in place while you cut.

To make this card I cut some Coostal Cobans card stock in to a 3" square card base ( 6" x 3", scored at 3") and then matted  a slightly smaller whisper White mat.  I then stamped the largest heart on to a sheet of paper from the Winter Frost DSP Pack (Seasonal Catty  132183 £8.50) and using the framelits I cut it out.  The card was stamped with a sentiment from the Remembering Your Birthday Stamp Set (Wood  131347  £21.95  Clear  131350  £17.95).

Inside a white mat and sentiment from the same set.

I used the same stamp set and framelits to make a banner.

After cutting and gluing together the individual banner pieces I turned them over on the desk and glued the piece of string to them.

On the reverse I glued the coordinating piece to make the banner say open on one side and closed on the other.

I hung it in the window on two pegs and each morning and night we just turn the banner around.
