Eastern Promise

Hi all

Today I have a beautiful card to share with you all which has been done as an inspiration piece for Challenge #98 over at Scrapping 4 Fun Challenges.

This months challenge is Different Techniques and is sponsored by the wonderful

Fabrika Fantasy

For this challenge I have used the Embossed Die Cut in-lay technique and I have to say I really enjoyed doing this even though it was a little time consuming but to see it all come together makes it worth while. So here is what I have done.

To do this card I used the following products:

Whisper White Cardstock (Cut to make a 5x7 card)

Basic Black Cardstock

Eastern Medallions Thinlit Dies

Eastern Delight Speciality Designer Series Paper

Eastern Gold Vinyl Stickers

Mini Tassel Assortment

Versamark Ink

Embossing Buddy 

Gold Embossing Powder

Silver Embossing Powder

Heat Tool

Stick It Sheets

Simply Scored

Stampin Trimmer

Tombow Glue

I hope you have enjoyed seeing my inspiration piece and I can not wait to see what techniques you all do for this challenge.

Double Fold Up Box - Eastern Palace Suite

Hello Crafters

One of the things I love about being a demonstrator for Stampin' Up! is that we get to get our hands on some new products before the catalogue launch and when I first saw the Eastern Palace Suite I knew I had to get it, the colours in the set are beautiful and really eye catching. One of the things with this set is the die cuts WOW!!! you can get soooo many combinations out of them.

So I thought the best way for use to see these products would be to do a few makes so today I am sharing one of those with you all and here we have it.

Double Fold Up Box including 3x3 cards and envelopes (I can not take credit for this design I found this from another demo)

This is the box it has been decorated and made out of the card stock and Designer Series Paper from the Eastern Palace Suite

More pictures of the box from a different angle and when it is opened

Now let's take a look at the box folded out, again inside has been decorated to match the outside of the box with the same Designer Series Paper.

This box fits into it 3x3 cards and envelopes which I have also made from the Eastern Palace Suite using Card Stock, Designer Series Paper, Vinyl Stickers, Stamp Set and the Die Cuts

Now for the envelopes and made out of the Designer Series Paper.

The products used are as follows:

Eastern Palace Suite Premier Bundle which includes( Designer Series Paper, Cardstock, Vinyl Stickers, Stamp Set, Die Cuts, New in-colour Ink Pads Fresh Fig, Tranquil Tide, and Lemon Lime Twist)

Big Shot

Tombow Glue

Bone Folder

Simply Score Board

Stampin' Trimmer

Silver Foil Sheet

Versamark Pad
