Hello! I am running a bit behind getting our Mystery Stamping supply list out due to a server issue. Thank goodness I have my awesome hubby who knows how to fix such things! Just another reason he is a keeper!
Anyway, I have been wanting to make this card for a while, but wanted to do a little more research before I did. So, I have finally found a way to make it that will be the wow that we all love!
See you Wednesday night!
Stay Safe & Crafty!
Wednesday, July 30th at 7:00pm
This event will be virtual only, via Zoom. Be sure to email me at tracie@stampwithtracie.com by 3:00pm on Wednesday, July 30th, so I can add you to the Zoom email list. You should receive the email with the link by 5:00pm. If you do not receive it by then, please text or email me and I will make sure you get it!
Due to Facebook’s new policy of removing Facebook Lives after 30 days, I will no longer go live on Facebook, but will upload the finished video.
Can’t join us on the 28th, but want to create this fun project? No, problem! Visit the Stamp Pad Facebook page or check my blog for the completed project and link to my YouTube channel on Thursday, June 26th.
Please join me on the Zoom link starting at 6:45pm to chat or ask any questions you may have. We will begin promptly at 7:00pm. Please remember to keep chatting to a minimum, unless you have a question about the project. We will have time to chat and ask any non-project questions after we finish.
Here is the scoop on how our Mystery Stamping Parties work. – You will need to gather your supplies and cut your cardstock before the party. There is a list of supplies (some are suggested, so don’t worry if you don’t have everything) and cardstock dimensions below.
During the party I will give you step-by-step directions to make your card along with some tips and tricks. We will NOT share anything about our projects until the very end.
PLEASE note that that I might practice a fancy fold to make sure I understand how it works, but I DO NOT create the full project until I do it with you. So, it is always a mystery how it will all turn out for me, just like it is for you!
It is always so much fun to see how everyone interprets the directions and with everyone using different stamps, cardstock, DSP, etc.., everyone’s card will be a one of a kind!
Please note that you CAN use anything you have in regards to stamp sets, punches, cardstock, DSP or embellishments. It can be retired if you have something you like and want to use.
Hint, if this is your first time joining us, you might consider prepping two sets of cardstock and DSP. We lovingly call this “Pulling an Allison.” This ensures that if something goes wrong or you decide you don’t like how something goes together you can easily fix it./
Here is a list of suggested tools and supplies you need to get together before the party:
- You will want to choose a stamp set that contains flowers with coordinating dies for this project.
- A sentiment stamp set if the stamp set you are using doesn’t have one or the one you want to use.
- Washi Tape or Painter’s Tape
- Birch Wood 3D or any wood grain embossing folder
- A Paper Trimmer is a must!
- Liquid Glue and Tear & Tape work best for this project.
- Ink pads that coordinate with your cardstock and DSP
- Ribbon, trim and/or embellishments to add that final touch to your project.
- Simply Scored
- Silicone Craft Mat
- Bone Folder
- Your favorite basic adhesive, Dimensionals, Glue Dots, Tear & Tape, etc…
You will need the following sizes of cardstock. PLEASE cut these in advance.
Basic White Thick Cardstock
- 8 1/2″ x 11″
- 3 3/4″ x 5″
These pieces can be cardstock or DSP. Two Tone Cardstock work great to keep the card from getting too bulky.
- 4″ x 3 1/2″
- 4″ x 5 1/4″
