Stampin’ Up! By The Bay — Sending Hugs

Sometimes you can let the Designer Series Paper do the creating and that is what I have done today with the card I am sharing with you. I used By The Bay Designer Series Paper, along with an embossing folder from Stripes and Splatters 3D Embossing Folder.
I am entering the Global Design Project Challenge for this card.

I cut nine squares from a panel of By The Bay Designer Series Paper. These square are adhered to a Basic White card stock panel and a Distressed Gold Specialty Paper is used to mat the Basic White card stock panel. I embossed a panel of Coastal Cabana cardstock using an embossing folder from Stripes and Splatters 3D Embossing Folder. This panel is adhered to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. The panel with the nine squares is adhered to the middle of the embossed panel. A greeting from Stampin’ up! Through This Together stamp set is stamped in Coastal Cabana ink in the center square. Three Gold Adhesive Backed Swirls are popped in the middle square above the greeting.

A panel of By The Bay Designer Series Paper is adhered to the inside of the card base for a sentiment of choice or a short note.

A Basic White Medium Envelope gets a piece of By The Bay Designer Series Paper applied to the envelope flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

The card I am sharing today is created using Stampin’ Up! Marigold Moments stamp set (this set retires soon). I also used the coordinating dies, Marigold Moment Dies. I used Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Thistle stamp set for the greeting.


















Place a dot of Liquid Glue on both sides on each strip . Adhere the two narrow strips, one to each side of the lattice. I waited until I had both strips in place so I could adjust if necessary.



























Adhere pieces of Orchid Oasis Glimmer Paper from the 2022-2024 In-Color 6″ x 6″ Glimmer Paper to the areas shown in the above photo.
Color using Fresh Freesa, Highland Heather, Granny Apple Green, Old Olive and Orchid Oasis Stampin’ Blends Markers. A greeting from Stampin’ Up! Hello Ladybug stamp set is stamp in the upper right corner using Tuxedo Memento Black ink.
After the ink was well dry and even with Stampin’ Blends the card stock can be damp for a few minutes, I used Wink of Stella on the thistle.
Emboss this art piece using the Splatter 3D Embossing Folder from Stripes and Splatters 3D Embossing Folders. I embossed on the negative side and you can barely see the embossing on the thistle.
A small thistle is stamped in Memento Black ink and colored with the same Stampin’ Blends Marker as used on the card front. A second greeting is stamped on the Basic White piece using Memento Black ink. The piece is then embossed using the Stripes Embossing Folder from the Stripes and Splatters Embossing Folder. A small thistle is popped on the bottom of the card front as the stop for the flap that comes over and stop at the thistle.
