Another Petal Cone Die Project!

Another Petal Cone Die Project!

This project is one of my favorites, not mailable at all, but a fun graduation project! The Petal Cone Die was turned upside down, a bottom (actually a top) added, and then a card on top as the finishing touch! The "tassel", (which is not CASED but is my own brainstorm!)is actually 5/8" Daffodil Delight Satin Ribbon cut into three strips and braided. I tied off the end with two of the strips, then frayed all the ends to get the tassel-y look! You could tuck some money or a gift card in the base, or just attach it to your gift!

For the inside I used a "Teeny Tiny Wishes" phrase, (pg 157 in the Big Catalog) LOVE that set, it comes in SO handy for just about every occasion! I also love how the fonts are all diferent for the words, so much fun! "You're one of the GOOD ones!" is from "Smarty Pants" on page 152!

Until tomorrow, have a "Stampingrox!" day!

The Very Versatile Petal Cone Die!

The Very Versatile Petal Cone Die!

Last week I showed you the Easter Carrot Box we made at our "Yes, Ma'am's!" downline meeting with the Occasions Mini Petal Cone Die, so I thought today would be a good day to start showing you some of the other projects that can be made with this VERY versatile die!

First, here's a Petal Cone "cone basket" similar to how it is shown on page 15 of the Occasions Mini. I have CASED this project from somewhere, but have not kept track of who's original idea most of these were from, so if this is your's, please let me know so I can give you credit!

Next is a very vintage-y heart shaped basket. I also see Thanksgiving possibilities for this shape! (doesn't this one remind you of a turkey?) I used the "Vintage Wallpaper" Textured Impressions Folder on this one before assembling the box.

Here's a Petal Cone Ice Cream Cone! I used the sprinkles from the "Build a Cupcake" punch and covered them with Crystal Effects to give them the chocolatey yumminess look! The waffle look of the cone was achieved with the "Perfect Details" Texturz Plate. The edge of the ice cream scoop is from the "Tasteful Trim" Bigz XL Die.

Petals-a-Plenty Christmas Tree!

Petals-a-Plenty Christmas Tree!

As promised, here is my mini-tutorial for creating an embossed Christmas Tree using the Petals-a-Plenty Textured Impressions Folder and the Big Shot!

I started by using my Hobby Blade and the Cutting Mat to cut two tree-shaped triangles out of a piece of thick cardboard from one of my packages of Candy Candy Christmas Designer Series Paper. The cardboard needs to be pretty thick and sturdy so it can take the place of the bottom acrylic cutting pad.

November 2010 065©Stampin'Up!™1990-2010

I attached these two triangles to each other with Sticky Strip.

November 2010 066©Stampin'Up!™1990-2010

I then attached the triangle to the positive side (petals popping UP!) of my Petals-a-Plenty Textured Impressions folder with Dotto repositionable adhesive. You want your triangle to be on the bottom of your sandwich going through the Big Shot, (this pic shows everything upside down). Insert your cardstock as shown in the picture so you can perfect the placement of the tree. Flip this all over and run through the Big Shot with this sandwich order: cardboard triangle attached to Impressions Folder, Impressions Folder with cardstock in middle, acrylic cutting plate.

Here's your Petals-a-Plenty Christmas Tree!

November 2010 071

©Stampin'Up!™1990-2010

Use the journaling tip of a Cherry Cobbler Stampin' Write Marker to just barely apply color to the dots in the centers of the poinsettias and between the flowers. You will have a few slightly embossed petals around the main tree image, but you choose where you want your tree to begin and end by where you color the dots and later where you put the Two-way Glue and Dazzling Diamonds Glitter!

  November 2010 072©Stampin'Up!™1990-2010

This pic shows part of the tree has had Two-Way Glue applied and sprinkled with Dazzling Diamonds Glitter so you can see the difference of with and without the glitter!

November 2010 076©Stampin'Up!™1990-2010

We stamped the inside with a verse from Seasonal Sentiments, and surrounded it with snowflakes from Snow Swirled, all in Cherry Cobbler ink!

November 2010 085©Stampin'Up!™1990-2010

After adding a strip of Cherry Cobbler punched with the Dotted Scalloped Ribbon Border and a strip of Deck the Halls Designer Series Paper, we added a greeting from Snow Swirled punched with the Wide Oval punch, matted on a Cherry Cobbler Decorative Label. The finishing touch is a Basic Jewel Rhinestone on the top of the tree!
