The brand new Bottled Happiness stamp set is just SO pretty!
I am such a sucker for glass bottles- they’re full of character and always make the item they store, look more glamourous than what it is.
Which is why I ordered this stamp set once I could place a demonstrator pre-order.
This is just one of the many benefits of being a demonstrator -if you’re interested in learning of some of the others –have a look here.
Well, let’s get cracking with this project.
What you will need for your Bottled Happiness card
Thick basic white cardstock -cut at 5½” x 8¼”. Score this at 4 1/8′ and set aside.
A piece of designer series paper 51/8″ x 3 3/4″
A contrasting piece of designer series paper (often the reverse side of the Stampin Up! papers are the best option here) – cut at 5″ x 3 5/8″
Basic white cardstock -4 7/8″ x 3½”
Bottled Happiness Stampset
2022- 2024 In Colour Matte Decorative Dots
Parakeet Party Inkpad
Sweet Sorbet Inkpad
Gray Granite Inkpad
Stamparatus
Glue
Dimensionals
Putting it all together
Glue your larger piece of designer series paper onto the white cardbase.
Then glue the smaller of the designer series paper onto the larger piece.
I found the next step much easier using my Stamparatus.
Position the small piece of cardstock onto the stamparatus.
Position the stamp marked 1 onto your cardstock.
Stamp with colour of choice – I used Parakeet Party
Now position stamp 2 over stamped image.
You’re wanting to make sure that you position the large flowers, right over the middle of the smaller flowers from stamp 1.
Have a look at this close up of the image to see what I mean.
Ink using colour of choice – for this project I used Sweet Sorbet, but Orchid Oasis also works well.
The next thing is to stamp the glass bottle – I used gray granite for that.
I decided to rough up the edges of the card to create some interest -but you can leave it as is.
The next thing is to stamp a sentiment – I was making 13 of these cards as thankyou cards for the recent retreat I hosted.
Adhere this sentiment onto the card front using dimensionals.
I then added a little embellishment to keep the focus on the stamped image.
And voila! you’re all done!
I just love how versatile this bottled happiness stamp set is, and will be using it heaps in the coming year!
If you want to re-create the card using the same items- you can order them right here.
Until next time!
