Father's Day

Flippin’ Awesome

susanfoxbowenLeave a comment

Welcome back, everyone! Glad you took the time to stop in. This week, we’re getting ready for Father’s Day, which is just a little under two weeks away. And today is an ode to all of the BBQ chefs we have out there as we pair up the BBQ Master stamps & dies with some fun papers to create this cute & playful ode to dad. Once again, fellow demo Heidi Collins over at On y Go! Stamping provided the inspiration for this card.

We get started with a base of Pretty Peacock cardstock. I paired up the peacock striped pattern from the new Everyday Essentials paper pack with the brush pattern from the Nature Walk pack. I used the darker pattern as the backdrop base and then dropped the stripes on top. A triangle is cut out of the top sheet to create a peek-through in the lower corner, which provides a nice way to highlight the focal point. I pulled out some of my favorite retired Pretty Peacock & Gold ribbon to bridge the two patterns. This full panel is adhered to the card front with dimensionals. Next up, we turn to our focal panel which begins with a panel of Pool Party shimmer paper cut with the Label Me Grateful dies. The grill is stamped in Pretty Peacock and then heat embossed with clear embossing powder to give it a more realistic sheen. It’s then cut out with the coordinating BBQ Master die. The flame is stamped in a combination of Real Red, Timid Tiger, and Crushed Curry and then cut out with the coordinating die. I added some Wink of Stella to help give a flicker effect to the flames. The sausage links are cut from Cajun Craze. The sentiment from the BBQ Master set is stamped in Pretty Peacock on an extended banner cut with the Nested Essentials dies. Everything is adhered to our card front with varying layers of dimensionals for some depth of scene. I added the sausage links willy nilly above the flames to give a sense of flippin’ to our scene. We finish things off with some Pool Party dots.

I really love how this one turned out, don’t you? So fun! I hope you’ll drop in tomorrow — we’ll be taking dad to the beach!

Masculine Designs

Grill Master

susanfoxbowenLeave a comment

Welcome back, everyone! This week, we’re creating masculine designs. And today we’re using the new BBQ Master stamp and die set and pairing it up with the Pleasing Patterns foil paper.

We get started with a base of Shy Shamrock cardstock and then use the striped pattern from the Pleasing Patterns paper pack as our background. I had a smaller piece that I used to cut the decorative circles using the Stylish Shapes dies. the circles are adhered in each corner of the card with dimensionals and will serve as the backdrop for each of our foodie vignettes. To build each of the vignettes, we select foods and tools from the BBQ Master stamps and dies and get to work cutting and stamping. Using color coordinated cardstock, we cut a variety of vegetables, shrimp, and sausage. The new Lunar Luster paper is the perfect silvery sheen for the bbq skewers. The oven mitts are Night of Navy and hold our teak grill tools. The sentiment from the BBQ Master stamp set is stamped in navy on white cardstock banner cut with the Stylish Shapes dies. Some shimmering dots finish things off with a pop of white across the card front.

Isn’t this one fun.. I love how the slits I. The meat and veggies let us thread them onto the skewers for a more realistic look to our little scenes! I hope you’ll drop back in tomorrow to see what’s up next in our masculine design series.

Flippin’ Awesome Father’s Day

susanfoxbowenLeave a comment

Happy Thursday, everyone! It’s been a wild week so far here in North Texas as we’ve had a string of daily thunderstorms. And it just happens to be the time of year when thunderstorms turn nasty in a hurry. So needless to say, we’ve been on our toes this week!

Today’s card, on the other hand, is an ode to sunny weather that is perfect for grilling in the backyard. In particular, we’re looking ahead to Father’s Day when, ironically, most dads grill a meal in honor of their own special day! And the new BBQ Master bundle of stamps & dies is perfect for this tribute to dad. We’re revisiting the side step fun fold to create this backyard bbq scene for dad.

Our fun fold base is created with Cloud Cover cardstock. We use our instructions to cut and fold to create the 3 step folds on the side of our card and then we start building the scene. We create the tree using a sheet of the medium-shade woodgrain from the Woodgrain Wonder paper pack and cut the trunk using the Gliding Garden Swing die and then adhere it to the larger left side panel, allowing the branches to overhang freely over the step panels on the other side. Using the bush dies from the Garden Swing set, I cut out Shy Shamrock and Summer Splash bunches to create the tree canopy on the overhanging branch, layering the bunches with glue dots and dimensionals to create realistic dimension.

Now we get started with the real meat & potatoes of our scene. The grill image from the BBQ Master stamp set is stamped in Secret Sea on Cloud Cover cardstock and then cut out with the coordinating die. The grill flames are stamped on Peach Pie with a combination or Real Red and Timid Tiger ink and then cut with the coordinating die from BBQ Master die set. The tongs are stamped in Smoky Slate and Gray Granite on Cloud Cover cardstock and then cut with the coordinating die. Dimensionals give us our depth of scene and a little extra snip of the tongs allow them to hang on the side of the grill in a more believable way. The sausages and hamburger are created with the BBQ Master dies and a collection of paper scraps to create realistic-looking grilled yummies. I used some leftover pieces of white picket fence cut using the Notes & Toes die to create the picnic table. The table and food are affixed to the middle side panel to give the look of the tail being more under our shady tree branch. The sentiment is front and center on the bottom right and is heat embossed in black and we use a few moody palette dots to finish things off with an equal amount of glossy sheen.

Isn’t this fun fold perfect for creating this dad’s day bbq scene?! If you’d like to try it out yourself, you can snag the pdf side step fun fold tutorial here.

Today’s card is a part of the Luv 2 Stamp Group Instagram Hop, which goes live at 9 AM Pacific Time (PST).  Click here to head over to my Instagram feed at 9 AM Pacific/11 AM Central and check out what the other demos in our L2S Group have created for you today!

Adventures

Time for Grillin’

susanfoxbowenLeave a comment

TGIF, everyone! We’re jumping into the springtime spirit as the weather gets more & more perfect for time on the patio. Today we tip our hat to those great backyard BBQs with the new BBQ Master bundle.

We get started with a base of Crumb Cake cardstock. A sheet of the red plaid Regal Distressed Patterned paper gives us that picnic feel. A combination of the thatch pattern from the Delicate Dreams pack and some Secret Sea glimmer paper give us the base for our focal panel. We add some grass to start our scene with the help of the Scenic Adventure dies. The grill is stamped on Cherry Cobbler cardstock and then heat embossed with black. We add some grass fire with a combination of Peach Pie cardstock and an assortment of red, yellow, and orange ink to stamp the image and then cut out with the coordinating die from the BBQ Master bundle. The tongs image is stamped on lunar luster paper and then diecut with the coordinating die before hanging them on the side to be ready for use flipping the food. The sentiment from the BBQ Master set is stamped in Secret Sea ink and then we add a few coordinating moody palette dots to finish things off.

Isn’t this card super fun? This stamp and die bundle has tons of potential, for sure! I hope you’ll drop in tomorrow to see where we wind up on this week’s adventures.
