Hi Everyone, Anet here today and welcome to my inspiration post.
I made a Christmas Card and Mini Purse with the Elegance Collection from Couture Creations. I coloured the image with the Twin Tip Alcohol Ink Markers.
I found the inspiration from Julie's Blog. As always I like to change things a little and changed the sizing.
Step by Step Instructions:
Mini Purse
I first trimmed Garnet Cardstock to 3 1/8" x 5 3/4" and scored it at 1 1/2" and 1 3/4".
I then cut the Garnet Cardstock twice to 3 1/4" x 5 3/4".
Following on from this I die-cut the Garnet Cardstock with the Elegance Border Die and The Gift Of Giving Merry Christmas Die. I adhered it onto the cardstock using All Purpose Glue.
I foiled with the Elegance Sending Love Hotfoil Stamp using Garnet Cardstock, Silver Foil Matte Finish Heat Activated Foil and the GoPress and Foil Machine. I then die-cut the foiled sentiment using the Elegance Sending Love Die.
Follow my video tutorial below to learn how to foil with the Elegance Sending Love Hotfoil Stamp. Video Link: https://youtu.be/6PMP4Uzp98E.
I then cut Elegance Patterned Paper to 2 3/4" x 4 1/2", adhered it onto the small notebook and also added a 2023 Calendar Tab.
Following on from this I cut Smooth White Cardstock to 3" x 5 1/2" and embossed it with the Elegance Framed Bouquet Embossing Folder. I also added ribbon for handles.
I stamped the Aster Stamp onto Smooth White Cardstock using the Card Deco Essentials Christmas Red, Burgundy Eggplant Pigment Ink and die-cut it with the Elegance Aster Die. I added it onto the purse front using 3D foam dots.
Following on from this I die-cut Jungle Cardstock with the Elegance You Are Adorable Leave Dies and added Emerald Green Pearls.
Card
I first trimmed Garnet Cardstock to 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", score at 4 1/4" and fold to create a card base.
I then cut the following cardstock layers:
- Smooth White Cardstock to 3 3/8" x 4 5/8" and adhered it onto the card front.
- Garnet Cardstock to 3 1/4" x 4 1/2" and layer it onto the white cardstock.
- Blending Card to 2 7/8" x 4 1/8".
Following on from this I stamped the Elegance Aster Stamp randomly onto the Blending Card using the Colour Outline Ink Pad Soft Black and coloured it with the Twin Tip Alcohol Ink Markers.
Twin Tip Alcohol Ink Markers Combination:
Aster: 206, 193, 220, 188
I stamped a Christmas Sentiment Stamp onto the Smooth White Cardstock using the Embossing Ink Pad, Mirror Platinum Classic Metallics Embossing Powder and heat embossed it.
I then foiled with the Elegance Sending Love Hotfoil Stamp using Garnet Cardstock, Silver Foil Matte Finish Heat Activated Foil and the GoPress and Foil Machine. I then die-cut the foiled sentiment with the Elegance Sending Love Die.
To finish I added Emerald Green Pearls onto the card front.
