Hello my Stampin’ Friends!
Step into a charming world of folk tales and garden adventures with the Storybook Moments 12″ x 12″ Specialty Designer Series Paper! Perfect for springtime, Easter, or baby announcement cards, this collection features delightful neighborly critters, gardening accessories, and countryside cottages that are ideal for fussy cutting. The ornate frame patterns, flora, and hearty vegetables make beautiful scrapbook page accents. With its hand-painted characters and soft color palette, this patterned paper captures all the charm of a beloved children’s storybook.
Card Instructions:
Card Base: Start with a Basic Beige card base measuring 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″. Fold in half using a Bone Folder for a sharp crease.
Layering: Add Layer #1 in Old Olive (5 3/8″ x 4 1/8″), then attach the plaid pattern from Storybook Moments Designer Series Paper (5 1/4″ x 4″).
Main Panel: Die cut Basic Beige using the second-largest die from the Deckled Rectangle Dies set. Splatter with Cajun Craze ink and attach to the card front.
Images: Punch out the vegetables, cart, squirrel, and grass background from the Storybook Moments paper. Trim all images, leaving less than 1/8″ border, and layer as shown using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Sentiment: Stamp “Hello Friend” from the Storybook Friends stamp set in Cajun Craze ink. Die cut using the small banner die from Stylish Shapes Dies and attach with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Inside Panel: Die cut Basic Beige (5 1/4″ x 4 1/8″) with the large Deckled Rectangle die. Add a squirrel image to the lower right corner and attach the panel inside the card.
