A New Adventure
I’m super excited to share FAB Stampers with you! This is something new I’ve been working on with my friend and fellow demonstrator, Connie Douglas. Connie is a demonstrator in Wasaga Beach, Ontario, Canada, and we’ve been friends for several years. We’ve even been able to meet up a couple of times, back when we had in-person Conventions in Salt Lake City.
FAB Stampers – A Collaboration
Connie and I decided that our customers deserve to see different styles of stamping and lots of FABulous projects. So, with that in mind, we will be working together to share some great stamping projects with you, as we share blog posts. You will know when a blog post is one that we are sharing as you will see our new logo in the pictures.
Heeeeeeere’s Connie!
Without further ado, here’s our very first FAB Stampers post, a project from Connie!
Hello! I’m Connie Douglas. Today it is my turn to share a blog post, so let’s get started.
Today I have a great layout for you. It is great for lots of reasons; it is easy to create, it shows off our beautiful Designer Series Paper, and it is very flexible – you can arrange your pieces in lots of different ways.
Forever Fern – Sample 1
I have used the Forever Fern stamp set for all my cards today, but changed some of the other elements. The sentiment on this card is from Lovely You, and is perfect for sending a card for no reason other than to brighten someone’s day. My background DSP is Evening Evergreen from the 2021-2023 In Colour 6×6 DSP. The smaller piece of DSP is from the Beauty of the Earth DSP. I have used Evening Evergreen ink along with Soft Succulent and Evening Evergreen cardstock. This card is embellished with the Brushed Metallic Adhesive Backed Dots.
Forever Fern – Sample 2 & 3
For the next two cards I used the You’re A Peach Designer Series Paper, swapping the front and back pieces of DSP. Both cards have Pale Papaya cardstock and Calypso Coral cardstock and ink. The sentiment is from Timeless Tulips. Both cards are embellished with Champagne Rhinestone Basic Jewels.
Measurements
These cards are easy to make so grab your supplies and get all the measurements here.
Card Base – 8 1/2 x 5 1/2, score at 4 1/4
DSP – 4 x 5 1/5, 2 1/2 x 3 1/4
Coloured Cardstock – 2 3/4 x 3 1/2, 2 1/2 x 2 7/8
Neutral Cardstock – 2 1/4 x 2 5/8
You will also need a strip for the sentiment in either a light colour or a neutral.
Have fun!
I hope you have enjoyed the first post from the FAB (Friends Across Borders) Stampers. Watch for more as we share our creativity with you.
Thanks, Connie!!
