I have another set of display projects to share with you today. This time I’m sharing my Cucumber Crush projects from the Stampin’ Up! OnStage Live Display boards.
This is a treat pouch that is quick and easy to make. Just cut 6×6 pieces of the designer paper and use Tear & Tape to adhere 3 sides together – leaving the top open. I did pull out my little crafty sewing machine to add stitching but you don’t have to do that. I have three brand new items on this one! Can you guess what they are?
- New Melon Mambo Thick Baker’s Twine – we have 3 new colors and this is one of them.
- New Washi Tape – it’s across the bottom of my tag. Its part of the Affectionately Yours collection which has 5 different designs.
- The Swirly Bird stamp set – yes the little flower and stem are from that set.
Keep your eye out on all my samples so that you can see all the different ways I’m using that one stamp set called Swirly Bird. I’ll probably end with one post just showing the flexibility of that stamp set.
This White card – it’s the Thick Whisper White card stock – love it – is such an easy one. I used the new Affectionately Yours Washi Tape on it – this time 3 of the 5 designs. The circle is stamped with the Endless Thanks stamp set in matching colors. I do see that one of my rhinestones slipped off the second yellow flower – it’s caught on my twine bow. So just imagine it in the right spot.
This is one of my 3D projects – part of a Desktop Seasonal Calendar – I’ll do a post showing you the full calendar and how it works later. Right now this is just one of the panels featuring the Cucumber Crush In-Color. Nothing new on here but since the Project Life Day to Day stamp set is retiring – I used that for the seasons – you’ll want to substitute the new one coming in the catalog called Project Life Date It – I like it even better unfortunately I didn’t have it to make this project.
And here is my last Cucumber Crush project – a card featuring the Swirly Bird stamp set – yes really! There are piece of a kite in it and the center of my sun. There are no words in the set however so those I got from various other stamp sets. There is another new product here – it’s the Cucumber Crush Mini Striped Ribbon. I used it here for the bows on my kite tail. I don’t know if you can see the shimmer on the sun rays but I added Wink of Stella to them – you know on a bright sunny day its like everything sparkles in the sun – I was trying to get that look.
The new products will be available in the new 2016-2017 Annual Catalog that starts on June 1st.
Thanks for visiting. I’ll be adding these to Pinterest and to Stampin’ Connection. You can follow me on Pinterest by going here.
Oh! I love the washi tape card and I’ve been looking for what stamp set to use with the washi! Love it!
Thanks Mindy!
Hi Monika. Love the samples. Do you have measurements of how to cut and fold the kite? Just can’t figure that out. Thanks so much for sharing
The kite is a new stamp set Swirly Bird coming in the catalog. I stamped the two parts of the kite – the solid part on Cucumber Crush card stock and cut it out and the striped part on white and cut the two pieces out and attached with dimensionals on top of the other. The little ties on the string are the new striped ribbon – i just cut little pieces and tied them with the bakers twine.
