Julie's Creative Stamping: Hey Girlfriend "I love my besties"

Thanks for stopping by my blog today! I'm so excited about the new products coming out in the new January - June 2021 Mini Catalog by Stampin Up®. I usually get so excited about the bundles first but the "Hey Girlfriend" stamp set jumped out at me! We all have those special friends that we make in our lifetime. Those that have been by our sides through the good times and the bad! The ones we have been able to laugh with and lean on! For some of us these are friendships that started when we were in grade school and have been with us through raising our children. So many wonderful memories! So here is a stamp set that can put into words all those great times spent with our friends.

Cut and Card Base Instructions: (DSP = Designer Series Paper)

Card Base - Thick Whisper White - 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 scored at 4 1/4

Layer 1 - Whisper White - 4 x 5 1/4

Layer 2 - Oh So Ombre DSP - 2 x 5 1/4

Layer 3 - Blackberry Bliss - 4 x 5 1/4

Layer 4 - Oh So Ombre - 1/2 x 4 1/4

Instructions:

Layer 1 - Using the Layering Circle Dies cut out three circles using the second to the smallest straight edge die as shown.

Then using the Brushed Blooms stamp set and the small dots image stamp several times around the top circle in Rococo Rose ink and around the lower circle in Blackberry Bliss ink.
Lay onto card front and trace circles onto card front.
Make sure to keep in mind the frames that will be placed on this layer. Then stamp the sentiment in Black Memento ink as shown. Color in heart with the Rococo Rose Stamp N Write marker.
Stamp the top of each of the girl images as shown in Black Memento ink inside the circles that you just traced onto the card front.
Using Stamp N Write Markers color in the girls. I used Rococo Rose, Blackberry Bliss, Bermuda Bay, Basic Gray, Soft Suede, So Saffron, Pacific Point and Petal Pink.

2. Layer 2 - Lay down onto Layer 1 (do not adhere) on the right hand side then turn over and trace the circle. Then cut out the circle using the same die as in step 1. Adhere to the Layer 1 on the right hand side lining up circles. Then adhere both layers to card front using Stampin Dimensionals.

3. Layer 3 - Using the same straight edged die and the third of the smallest scalloped die cut out three of the scalloped frames. Adhere one to each circle on Layer 1.

Apply a pearl to each frame as shown. (note: one is missing in photo)

4. Stamp sentiment in Black memento ink on the inside of the card.

5. Layer 4 - Adhere to the inside of the card.

This card goes together pretty quick! The Designer Series Paper that I used is part of the Sale A Bration which means it free with a $50 purchase from Jan - Feb of 2021! That's why Sale A Bration is one of my favorite times. Anytime we get free items it's great! Don't forget to leave me a comment below and let me know what you think!
