Alex Syberia Designs August Release Blog Hop & Giveaway

Hello Crafty friends, I am super excited to join Alex Syberia Designs for her August Release! I had a lot of fun working with Alexs’ stamps, dies, as well as stencils! Today I am excited to be hopping to celebrate this awesome new release! Be sure to check below for the giveaway details, as well as the full hop list! You can view the August release here!

For today’s project I am sharing the new stamp set – Special Delivery. I paired these with Postages Stamps Cover Die, as well as the Postage Stamps stencil. I started with a piece of Neenah cardstock with the Postage Stamps stencil and my distress oxide inks. I created 4 rectangle blends using the stencil. Once my ink blending was complete, I trimmed the 4 rectangles using my paper trimmer. I then stamped the images from the Special Delivery stamp set onto each of the rectangles. I then trimmed each of the panels using my deckle trimmer and then darkened the edges using Distress Ink. I added extra cardstock behind each layer for added dimension. I set these aside.

Next I used the Postage Stamps Cover Die. I die cut the panel 3 times and then adhered all the layers together using liquid glue. Next I added texture to the background using a combination of mediums. I used Distress Inks, Distress Paint, as well as Foundry wax to create a rustic feel on the panel.

Once the cover die panel was complete, I adhered this to a top folding card base. I then added the 4 postage stamps to the front of the card panel using liquid glue. I had a lot of fun creating this card and this set has so many possibilities!
