Bibi Cameron : Blessed by God Stampin Up

Blessed by God Stampin Up ♥ easy book box tutorial

May 12, 2015

Hello, today post is to share with you an easy peasy book box tutorial . I was working with Blessed by God Stamp Set from Stampin' Up! last week and my brain made a natural connection with the Bible while I was making some projects with this set so I thought it would be nice to make some sort of gift packaging for bibles, books, or even for memory keeping albums!!... This is the result of my first trying ... Perhaps I'm recreating in my video tutorial the oldest way to make boxes?

I applied "marker to stamp technique" to add different colours to the stamped fonts and images. and I have used Petite Petals Punch and the flower in the itty bitty accents punch pack to make the flowers. I used a piece of Painted Blooms designer series paper and Kraft card stock and I used Blackberry Bliss and Hello honey Stampin' write markers to add colour.

I have designed these boxes to pack bibles and I thought this might be an easy packaging idea for memory keeping albums as well or anything in general. It is super easy to make and they will look completely different according the paper, the colours and the stamp sets you use to give them live.

Cutting the card card stock to make the base:
Length: length of your book - album or product + 2 x desired box height .

Width: wisth of your book-album or product + 2x desired box heigh

Score and fold all around the card stock at desired height measurement

Cutting the card card stock to make the lead:
Length: length of your book -album-product + 2cm

Width: width of your book -album-product + 2cm+ desired height measurement.

Score and fold at the desired height at the left side of the card stock.

Hi, this is the first of four special post I have for you using Blessed by God set of 8 stamps from Stampin' Up! As always the stamp is to die for and it is very versatile. I have tried to make friendly modern religious cards using the set and to achieve this I have applied "marker to stamp technique" in some of the projects below. This colouring technique make amazingly easy to add different colours to the founts and create fun backgrounds!

My nephew First Communion is next Saturday so I was completely inspired by him to make these projects and that's why I have used bright colors, stripes, starts and some sparkle to the cards.

To make and to add cute embellishments I have used Itty Bitty accents punch pack ... I use these little punches for everything!

To make the card and the envelope in the picture above I used a sheet of Confetti Celebration Designer series paper from Stampin' Up! and for the other projects I used Moonlight Designer series Paper and Whisper white card stock.

To add colour to these projects I used Smoky Slate ink pad, Lost lagoon and hello honey Stampin' write markets ( from the in colours 2014 - 2016 markers pack and that coordinates with Moonlight Designer series Paper). I applied different ink colours on different parts of the stamps to get the letters in different colours as shown in the pictures.

To stamp the back ground in some of the cards I used Gorgeous Grunge Stamp from Stampin' Up!.

I also used pool party and coastal cabana ink pads to stamp the card above.

BLESSED BY GOD STAMPIN UP ♥ EMBOSSING RESIST TECHNIQUE

April 11, 2015

I'm completely in love with Blessed by God Set of 8 Cling Stamps. It is absolutely adorable to make religious themed cards or just to say in a very special way how important that person is in our life.

To make this card I have only used 1 of the sentiments in the set: You are a blessing in my life. Aww I love it! I can't wait to make and share more projects using this set that also includes Baptism , Marriage, friendship, sentiments and beautiful images of the holy cross.

I used the tulips of Blessed Easter Single Stamp (retired-2015) to stamp on watercolor paper and I applied Resist Embossing technique: I applied Versamark clear embossing ink + clear embossing powder and I heated the embossing powder with an embossing heat gun. I added colour on top of the image with Stampin' Write markers blending its inks with a bit of water and VOILA! I got the watercolor paper colour though the edges of the image.

Resist Embossing is a wonderful technique that allows you to add colour on top of stamped images without covering them but highlighting their edges or shapes. The technique is very easy. All you have to do is apply ink + embossing powder and heat it up. Once you heat the embossing powder it melts creating a waterproof coat on the cardstock - Vellum - Metallic sheets- window sheets so the inks won't penetrate where the embossing powder is applied.

You can add colour on top of the embossed images with markers, sponges, brushes and the images will pop up. You can also use card stock in different colours depending on the kind of effect you want to create and bearing in mind the ink colours or paints you want to add to your project. I like to use whisper white card stock or watercolor paper with this technique but it will work with any paper colour. It also works nice on black with metallic wax.
