Yay! Make It Monday has returned, sorry for the break, but what with work and my holidays filming sort of went out of the window! But, I am back now, and I cannot wait to get into more videos too.
Do you remember last week I shared THIS card? and said that I would do you all a video tutorial, well I’ve done it, and you can check it out below.
I really loved the Pool Party version of this card that I sent for the Wedding I attended a couple of Weekends ago, but I actually think this Night of Navy version is even better, bold and striking.
Measurements:
Half a sheet of A4 (10.5 x 29.7 cm)
Position the edge die at the very end of one side of the card stock, and then position the detailed die next to it. Run this through the Big Shot, repeat at the other end of the card stock with the larger detailed die.
Add a matt of Whisper White between the two die cut pieces, and score between the die cut and the Whisper White card stock
I’m loving these dies, they are just so pretty. I do have one more top tip though; the Precision Base Plate for your Big Shot is a MUST for this one, the die is so detailed. The Big Shot Die Brush is also something that I would consider if you were cutting a lot of these, it makes getting all those bits of card stock out of the die SOOOO much easier!

Stampin’ Up! UK Independent Demonstrator
I am loving the combination of Sweet Sugarplum and Rich Razzleberry, and I’ve paired this with Pear Pizzazz and Smoky Slate here to create a really fresh colour combination. I can’t help but add Gorgeous Grunge to my projects at the moment, and so I couldn’t not add a splatter of Smoky Slate here. The Birthday greeting comes from the Tin of Cards stamp set which I am so happy has carried over as I just LOVE that font!
This card is so fun! I will admit that this Flamingo stumped me when I first came across it in the catalogue. I have had the catalogue in my hands since mid-April, when I attended Stampin’ Up! On Stage, and the girls I was sat with that day will tell you I have absolutely no idea what happened on the stage as I couldn’t pull my eyes away from the catalogue, pen in hand, making notes of things for all of you! But this flamingo, which comes in a set that also includes a Pineapple, had me baffled! And then it appeared in the very short list available for demonstrators available to pre-order, and I didn’t buy it, but then my Facebook and Pinterest feeds filled up with Flamingos, and somehow this dude ended up on my stamp shelf! So, I have it, I MUST use it!
The Flamingo was coloured using the In-Colour Stampin’ Write markers in Flirty Flamingo and Peekaboo Peach. I did a test stamp onto Whisper White, and this effect was just gorgeous, I will probably share that at some point – but not today. The Designer Series Paper on the side of the watercolour paper comes from two different packs (sorry!) the Black stripes are from the Neutrals Designer Series Paper Stack, and the other piece with the beautiful gold confetti is from the new Pop of Pink Speciality Designer Series Paper, so super pretty.
