Get Well Card with Harvest Hellos Bundle

Hey Y’all!
I wanted to share this Get Well Card I made with the Harvest Hellos Bundle.
There is an Apple stamp and Pumpkin stamp, and the punch gives you both.  I added a scrap strip of DSP and Burlap Ribbon. I pulled it apart to make it a thinner strip, then used 2 of the strands to tie my bow.

I love the apple paired with the Buffalo Check background stamp...my favorite! I stamped it in Real Red ink with the Stamparatus so I could stamp it several times to get good coverage.  I also stamped the envelope flap...be sure to mask the rest of the envelope with a sticky note.  I colored the apples with the Stampin Blends. For the Apple slice, I used the Ivory Blend, then went over it with the color lifter. Memento Tuxedo Black ink is the ink you need to use when coloring a stamped image with Stampin’ Blends.
My card base is 8-1/2 x 5-1-2 scored at 4-1/4. Second layer is 4 x 5-1/4. I highly recommend using Thick Whisper White if you are using a white card base.

Pirate Treasure Chest with Birds of a Feather

Hey Y'all!, 
Ahem, I mean, Ahoy Matey's!!
I have the neatest project for you today!  Isn't this Pirate Treasure Chest so stinkin' cute!
It is a CASE from the 2019 Holiday Catalog, you can find it on page 50.
Now one of the really neat things about being a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator is they have a resource page that tells how they made the sample projects in the catalogs.  In the sample in the catalog, they used Crumb Cake cardstock, and the embellishments are different than mine.  


Here is a video to show you how to put it together.

Box Measurements:
     Soft Suede Cardstock 10-1/2 x 8 
           Landscape side-score at 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10
           Portrait side-score at 2 and 6
           Remove pieces and cut sides as shown in template:
