Stampin’ Up! Artfully Layered Hugs Card Video Tutorial

Good Morning! I have been having a lot of fun with the Stampin’ Up! Artfully Layered bundle, exploring new designs and techniques. I CASEd this card from the January – June Mini Catalog during my Facebook Live yesterday afternoon and really enjoyed all the different techniques that it used. You can find the supplies I used at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

Here is the video of my Facebook Live from yesterday afternoon. I also posted a copy of the video in my YouTube channel and you can view it here if you prefer.

I stamped a panel of Artfully Composed designer series paper with the leaf stamps of the Stampin’ Up! Artfully Layered cling stamp set. I stamped the outline leaves in Evening Evergreen over the Old Olive leaves and in Old Olive ink over the Just Jade leaves. I stamped the long leaves in Mint Macaron ink in the Just Jade and Evening Evergreen leaves and then adhered the panel to the front of a Just Jade card base with liquid glue.

I cut adhered a strip of Layering Designs vellum to the front and cut a strip of Calypso Coral cut with the stitched pinked die and adhered it below the vellum. I die cut a strip of Evening Evergreen with the texture die three times and ran the strip through the die cutting machine without the die to flatten the last cut before adhering it to the card front. I stamped a bumblebee strip with the printed script stamp from the Stampin’ Up! Artfully Layered stamp set in Bumblebee ink and adhered it on top of the Evening Evergreen strip. Finally, I adhered a length of white frayed ribbon on top of the layered strips with glue dots.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Artfully Layered stamp set in Evening Evergreen ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the outline leaf in twice stamped off Mint Macaron ink over the sentiment and stamped the script in Bumblebee. I cut it out with the outline leaf die. I cut a Mint Macaron panel with the detailed leaf die and adhered it to the back of the leaf label before adhering the layered label to the card front with dimensionals. I finished the card with a linen thread bow and Faux Sea Glass shapes.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the script stamp from the Stampin’ Up! Artfully Layered stamp set in Bumblebee and adhered another detailed leaf die cut over it. I stamped another strip of the Artfully Composed DSP to match the card front background and adhered it to the bottom. I adhered the panel to the inside of the card.

The Stampin’ Up! Artfully Layered bundle is perfect for exploring different stamping techniques and artistic designs and styles. And I loved CASEing this card from the catalog. There is so much inspiration in the catalog and so many examples of the different things you can do with this bundle especially. So feel free to step out of your comfort zone and try something new. Enjoy!
