Fringe Frenzy - Episode 3

Hey there stamping friends, I am back with another Fringe Frenzy episode!

In Episode 3 I am using the Pinata Party stamp and die set again, to create a unicorn. I am also showing you how to make scalloped fringe with the Fringe Frenzy Kit. And, if you are in a rush and want a fringed look you can stamp faux fringe with the Pinata Party stamp set.

Each week in this series I am making a card and something cute to go with it. This time the something cute came first and the card was inspired by the gift box.

The gift box is the Gable Favor die from Spellbinders/FSJ. You can create this box with just one piece of 8-1/2" x 11"piece of paper!

I made the scalloped rainbow fringe for the background using the Fringe Frenzy die cut. To make scalloped fringe you will use two dies from the Fringe Frenzy die set. First, die cut the fringe piece from the lightweight paper that comes in the kit. Then, lay the scallop die on the fringed edge of this strip and die cut it again, giving your fringe a scalloped edge. I love it! 

The clouds are a great example of how you can use the dies you already have to create fringed elements.

The unicorn is die cut from glittered card stock, but you can make a fringed unicorn too! All the elements to finish this unicorn off are die cut with dies from the Pinata Party stamp set. I love that you can make a pinata or unicorn with this die set!

Now let's take a look at the coordinating gift card with hand made envelope.

I knew I wanted to make a mini shaker card, which would mean I would have very little of my fringe showing up on the frame if that is they way I went with the card. So, instead I used the fringe stamp from the Pinata Party stamp set for the background of my card.  This gave me the look I wanted and was quick and easy. I use that same stamp on my envelope. Playing with the Fringe Frenzy kit so much I realized that the lightweight paper was perfect for creating envelopes. And at 6" x 6" the perfect size for a 3-1/2" x 3-1/2" card.

I filled my shaker card with Diamond Dust, it is clear glass product similar to chunky glitter, but it actual cut glass so it has some weight to it. I love how it moves around in a shaker card.  The stamped and die cut sentiment are from the Fringe Frenzy Kit, it's so nice that this set has a banner die to cut out the long sentiments and I don't have to hunt for another die set to do this!  The ink colors I used for my faux fringe are all form Altenew, I linked all the colors for you below.

Now let's take a look at the video, the making of these projects. Be sure to click over to my YouTube channel, like a comment on this video there for a chance to win this card!
