JustRite Papercraft May Release Day Three - On Your Special Day Tag

Hello Friends!
Today is the third day of the JustRite Papercraft May Release! The new releases we are showcasing today are two new clear stamp sets "Botanical Medallions & Banner" and "Classic Art Deco Lace Edges One", and a cling stamp "Heart Scroll Background Stamp". I love these new sets, they are so versatile and can be used for many different occasions.

For my tag, I used the new sets "Botanical Medallions & Banner" and "Classic Art Deco Lace Edges One". Look at all the beautiful images!!

To make the tag, I stamped and dry embossed the background with black embossing ink on creme cardstock using "Elegant Fronds Background Stamp". Then I stamped the border using "Classic Art Deco Lace Edges One" and die cut with coordinating die from the set "Classic Edges One" by Spellbinders.
The medallion and banner were stamped using the set "Botanical Medallions & Banner". I die cut the medallion with the coordinating die from the set "Nested Oval Medallion Labels Dies" and the banner was die cut with the new die set "Vintage Label and Banner Dies".

The flowers were stamped using the set "Botanical Medallions & Banner" also, and were colored with Copic markers. The orange doily behind the medallion was die cut using the set "Persian Motifs" by Spellbinders.
Layer the pieces together using foam tape for dimension, add some pearls in the center of the flowers, and for the bow I used black silk ribbon.

Project Supplies:

JustRite Papercraft: "Classic Art Deco Lace Edges One", "Botanical Medallions & Banner", "Elegant Fronds Background Stamp", "Classic Art Deco Lace Edges One", "Nested Oval Medallion Labels Dies"

Spellbinders Paper Arts: "Persian Motifs", "Classic Edges One"

Other Supplies: Creme and Black Cardstock, Black Silk Ribbon, Foam Tape, Pearls, Black Embossing Powder, Copic Markers.

JustRite Papercraft May Release Day Two - Thank you Candy Basket

Hello Friends!
Welcome to the second day of the JustRite Papercraft May Release!  Today, the Design Team will be showcasing two new stamp sets "Violette Vintage Labels" and "Going Places Vintage Labels", and one set of custom dies "Vintage Label & Banner Dies" designed to coordinate with JustRite cling and clear stamps.

For my project I used the new cling stamp set "Violette Vintage Labels" and the new die template set "Vintage label & Banner Dies" pictured below.

Instructions:

1. To make the basket first cut a 3  3/4 inch square with white cardstock. Score a  1/2 inch mark on 4 sides and cut the corners out.

2. Stamp 4 of the smaller label from the cling stamp set "Violette Vintage Labels" on white cardstock and die cut with coordinating die from the set "Vintage label & Banner Dies".  Also die cut 4 blank labels for the inside of the box. 

For the handle, stamp border using "Classic Lace Edges One". The handle is about 11 inches long, so you need to stamp the border twice and glue ends by overlapping one scallop. Die cut border on both sides with Edge A from the set "Classic Edges One" by Spellbinders.

3. Color the 4 labels and basket handle with Copic markers. For the flowers I used YR02, V15, V000 and RV66, for the leaves I used G21 and G85, and for the stripes I used #31. I used the same colors for the handle.
Glue the 4 labels on each side of the square just before the crease line as picture below shows.

4. Cut 4 ribbons measuring about 18 inches each. Center ribbons on the back side and secure with tape on the top edge of labels making sure the ribbons touch the corners. Then glue blank labels on top covering the ribbons. See picture below.

This is how the back should look after you glue all 4 labels.

This is the front side of the basket.

5. To form the basket tie a knot in each corner and then make a bow. Attach handle to the sides with strong tape or glue. I die cut 2 extra blank labels to cover the handle inside the basket. 

For the sentiment "Thank you" I used the set "Spring Words" and the flowers are from the set "Violette Vintage Labels" also. Die cut a circle around the sentiment using  "Standard Circles Small" by Spellbinders and the scalloped circle behind is die cut using "Lacey Circles" by Spellbinders.

Attach pearls to flowers and handle.

Here is the finished project.

I hope you are inspired to make this basket, it does not take that long and having the coordinating dies for the images makes it really easy to cut and assemble the basket.

Project Supplies:

JustRite Papercraft products: "Violette Vintage Labels", "Vintage label & Banner Dies", "Classic Lace Edges One", "Spring Words"

Spellbinders Paper Arts: "Classic Edges One", "Lacey Circles", "Standard Circles Small"

Other Supplies: white cardstock, Memento Tuxedo Black ink pad, May Arts silk ribbon, white pearls.

Please make sure to visit each of the JustRite Papercraft Designers to see their creations.

Hello Friends!
I am so excited to announce that I have been asked to join the JustRite Papercraft Design Team!!! I feel so honored to be among such a wonderful group of talented ladies!
I have loved JustRite rubber stamps for a long time, they are just beautiful, and they also have die cutting  templates that coordinate with their stamps. I use their stamps in just about every project I make, they have a sentiment for every occasion.
I am so grateful for this opportunity and I look forward to creating projects with their wonderful products. Visit their blog at "JustRite Inspiration" for more information on their May Release and to see this announcement.

For the next few days JustRite will be revealing  the new May Release, a wonderful collection of 9 stamp sets and 1 set of coordinating dies!!!

Today, I am showcasing 2 fabulous new sets called "Anchors Away" and "Vintage Travel Background Stamp", which I used for my Happy Father's Day card above.

For my card, I stamped and dry embossed the images on creme card stock using Versamark and brown embossing powder and then I colored them by using a sponge applicator and Ranger's Distress Inks in Broken China, Peeled Paint and Brushed Corduroy.

 I also used the JustRite Custom Design Die Templates called "Nested Medallion Labels". They coordinate with the stamps and it makes it very simple to have a perfect cut around the stamps. The embossed background was created using M-Bossabilities "Elegance" by Spellbinders.

Easter Greetings Card for JustRite Friday Challenge

Hello Friends!
Today, I have another card to share with you. I created this card for JustRite Friday Challenge #69: Spring Fling. The challenge is to create a card using a noticeable butterfly and soft spring colors. When I think of Easter, I also think of the beginning of spring, so I decided to make an Easter card.

For this card I wanted to use the new additions to my JustRite rubber stamp collection, I love their rubber stamps. For the cross, frame, flower, and sentiments I used the sets "Easter Blessings", "Spring Words", and "Just Keep Calm". I rubber stamped them with Memento Rich Cocoa ink.

 I die cut the frame around the cross and sentiments using "Nested Oval Medallion Labels" by JustRite Custom Dies. The lacey brown background was die cut with "Lace Doily Motifs" by Spellbinders. I colored the cross and white flower on the right side with Copic Markers using soft pastel colors. For the bow, I used silk ribbon from May Arts.

For the pink roses, I used "Bitty Blossoms" by Spellbinders to die cut them. I added some distress ink to the borders before I rolled them into shape. The butterfly was die cut with "Wonderful Wings" and for the leaves I used "Foliage".

The tiny pink flowers were die cut with "Layered Scalloped Posy Die" and the small vine was die cut with "Decorative Chateau Gate Die" by Heartfelt Creations. The patterned paper is the "Nature Garden Collection" by Prima Marketing. 

This card is a Tri-Shutter fold card and it folds flat. You can find a tutorial on how to make this card by clicking on this "Link". Give it a try, it is not hard at all. 

Project Supplies:

JustRite Rubber Stamps:  "Easter Blessings", "Spring Words", "Just Keep Calm"

JustRite Custom Dies: "Nested Oval Medallion Labels"

Spellbinders Die Templates: "Wonderful Wings", "Bitty Blossoms", "Foliage", "Lace Doily Motifs"
