Woo-hoo!!!! Super excited to announce the release of the first ever Trinity Stamps kit! It’s called the Summer Blooms Papercrafting Kit and it includes a stamp and die set, 4 Ink on 3 ink cubes, a special embellishment mix and a coordinating paper pad! We’ve been sharing sneaks all week and today I have another card to share with you plus details on a sale and we’re having a hop over on Instagram too!

So many things going on, we better jump in!

I wanted to showcase as much of the kit as possible so today I stamped and heat embossed the largest image in the stamp set and used the Ink on 3 cubes to watercolor them. Then I used the coordinating dies to cut them out. I used paper from the pad and die cut a Slimline Modern Embossed panel. Then I took the next two sizes down from the same set and cut a thin frame from paper in the set as well. I used liquid glue to adhere these together and to a white slimline card base.

I used liquid glue to adhere the watercolored florals and put clear blocks on top to keep them flat while I switched gears to foiling my sentiment.

For this part, I used the Spellbinders Glimmer System and the new Big Celebrate Cut and Foil die set. I foiled the word Celebrate in silver on a white panel and then used the shadow die to cut it out. I adhered this to my card with foam tape.

For finishing touches I adhered a scattering of jewels from the embellishment mix in the kit all across my design.

I just love the bright and happy feel this kit naturally has and because of that how bright and happy my card is! Okay, now for info on the sale and such…

Hi there! I’m popping in today with a sneak peek from a brand new product hitting the Trinity Stamps shop this Friday. They are releasing their very first, very gorgeous, card kit! It comes with stamps, coordinating dies, paper pad, ink cubes and special embellishments! Soooo much fun!

For my card today, I cut 1/4 inch strips of various papers in the kit and glued them to an A2 size piece of a different paper from the kit. Then I die cut it with the largest modern embossed rectangle stack die. Then I stamped and heat embossed a couple of images from the Summer Blooms stamp set in copper and used the coordinating dies to cut them out. I adhered some directly to the panel and the larger image I popped up with foam squares. Then I pulled the “thanks” die from thanks senti-mini set and cut it 4 times from black cardstock. I used a glue pen to adhere the layers and then glued it to my card front.

Last, I added a scattering of embellishments from the exclusive mix in the kit across my card design. These gems are just gorgeous and I thought they played well with the shiny copper heat embossing.

On Friday we’re having a fun Instagram hop to celebrate the release of the new kit. There will also be a sale on the First Bloom stamps and coordinating dies when you buy the new kit too! Stay tuned for all the details on Friday!

Woo-hoo! We’re half way through the week my friends! I hope you’re having a great day! I have a really fun easel card to share with you featuring stamps and dies from Trinity Stamps. Let’s start with a look at the front and then we’ll get into the steps to make it too!

I just love monster themed things so I find myself going back to these great stamps and dies! For this card, I started by stamping one of the monsters from Monster Love and colored it with my copic markers. Then I used the coordinating dies to cut it out.

Now to switch to the card front and base. It’s not really as difficult as it looks. I broke it down into simple steps. First, I ink blended a white panel with distress oxides inks – festive berries and aged mahogany. I spritzed the panel with water and let it dry. Then I die cut it with the largest Embossed Edge Circle die, plus 2 more white circles the same size. Then I scored one of the white circles at 1/4 inch and 2 1/2 inches.

I burnished the score lines and carefully glued the white circles together by just the small tab – this is where your card opens. Then I glued the red card front to the larger bottom tab. So the middle section of the scored white circle has nothing attached to it at all.

To decorate the front of my card, I used the Sending Hugs dies and cut the elements from black and white cardstock. I like to layer my letters for extra dimension so sending and hugs are cut 4 times and glued together. I adhered “sending” and “monster” to the card front, then carefully wrapped my monster between the “hugs” letters and glued them all together before gluing them to the card front.

Last, I took the scrap of inked cardstock and die cut the small banner from the 4-Bar Card die set and stamped “just because” from the Sentiment for (almost) Everything set on it. I added a foam strip to the back and adhered it to the inside of my card. This forms the stopper for the easel mechanism of your card.

For finishing touches on this card I added black glaze pen to the monster’s eyes and then white gel pen accents to the letters in “hugs” and on the monster too. Instead of trying to keep track of all of the little dots for the “i” in sending, I let them fly wherever they may and used Nuvo Crystal Drops in black ebony to add my own dot. So much less stress and you’d never know.

I hope you enjoyed this project and will give it a try sometime!
