Stampin' Up Meadow dies Hi - Creations in Paper

Stampin’ Up Meadow dies Hi

Hello Everyone – I have a pretty card that uses the Stampin’ Up Meadow dies Hi cut in black. Wait until you see it.

I love using black and another color. I saw a card online that used a layout similar to this one so I decided to put my spin on it using Black and Flirty Flamingo.

Basic Black

Flirty Flamingo

Basic White

The Meadows dies have great images you can use to add to your cards as fillers. They are also great for focal images like I used them on my card.

I have used these dies for several other cards. Here is one where I sponged on ink to color the flower. This card uses the dies and they were colored using Fall colors.

A stencil was created using the die and I used the stencil to color it on the inside of the card and the envelope.

I created a stencil with one of the dies and used it to sponge on color for the inside of the card and the envelope. Using dies to make stencils are a great way to extend the use of your dies. The Stampin' Up Meadow dies are an example of how this makes decorating your cards easy.

Ready to make this card? Here are the details.

Measurements for the Stampin’ Up Meadow Dies Hi card

Card Base: White 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ and 4″ x 5 1/4″ and scrap for stamping the sentiment
Basic Black: scraps for die cutting
Brights pattern paper pack: scrap for die cutting – I used the Flirty Flamingo plaid pattern

Step by Step

fold and burnish the card base
using the Layering Circles dies and the scrap of Brights pattern paper pack cut out a circle that is about 2 3/4″ wide
using the circle cut above as a guide, use blending brushes and Flirty Flamingo ink to sponge on ink on the 4″ x 5 1/4″ piece of White so it shows on the upper outside of the circle – see photo above
add the White panel to the card base
attach the circle of pattern paper to the card base using dimensionals
die cut the skinny stems in the dies from Black
add dots of glue to the back of the stems and glue it on the pattern paper circle – Note: only add the glue to the middle section of the stems – see photo above
tie a strip of the Black & White gingham ribbon around the bottom of the stems
die cut the butterfly from Black and add it to the card front using a dimensional
stamp the sentiment onto a scrap of White using Flirty Flamingo ink then trim to size
cut a piece of Black a little larger than the white sentiment rectangle then glue the 2 rectangles together
add the sentiment to the lower right hand corner of the card front using dimensionals
