Stampin’ Up! Adventurous Sky Birthday Card

Good Morning! Here’s a fun masculine fun fold birthday card made with the awesome Stampin’ Up! Adventurous Sky bundle and the wonderful Take To The Sky designer series paper. I was inspired by a card made by my Inkin’ Krew teammate Tara Carpenter a few weeks ago and you can find her card HERE (she has a video, too!). You can find the products I used at the bottom of my post along with the card stock sizes.

I scored and burnished a panel of Take To The Sky designer series paper to make an accordion card base and adhered it to a Copper Clay card base panel. I cut another panel of the DSP with the largest circle in the Stylish Shapes dies. I traced the outside of the die on a Misty Moonlight panel and fussy cut it with my paper snip to make a mat and adhered the die cut to the mat with liquid glue. I adhered it to the front middle section of the card.

I used the large bi-plane dies from the Stampin’ Up! Adventurous Sky dies to cut the body of the plane from Copper Clay and the wings and propeller from Gray Granite. I used a black Stampin’ Write marker to color the wheels and adhered the die cuts together with liquid glue. I popped the plane on the card front with dimensionals. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Adventurous Sky stamp set in Misty Moonlight ink on Basic White and cut it out with the banner die. I adhered it to the card with glue dots and finished it with an industrial trinket.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up Adventurous Sky stamp set using Misty Moonlight ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the small bi-plane using Gray Granite ink and stamped several clouds using twice stamped off Misty Moonlight ink. I adhered the panel to a Copper Clay mat and adhered the layered panel to the little flap, being careful to only use liquid glue on the edge. I love this extra panel, it really makes the card special!

For the inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Adventurous Sky stamp set using Misty Moonlight ink on a Basic White panel. I adhered it to a Misty Moonlight mat before adhering it to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

The Stampin’ Up! Adventurous Sky bundle is perfect for flying fanatics, or someone who likes vintage machines. And this wonderful fun fold really allows the pretty DSP images to shine. The Take To The Sky designer series paper is included in the August DSP sale, but hurry, because the sale is ending soon.

Stampin’ Up! Adventurous Sky Father’s Day Card

Good Morning! The Stampin’ Up! Adventurous Sky bundle is the coolest bi-plane set ever with different plane and cloud images, coordinating dies, great masculine sentiments and dies to make a wonderful die cut bi-plane. I used the die cut bi-plane for today’s Father’s Day card and combined it with the wonderful Take to the Sky designer series paper. You can find the products I used at the bottom of my post along with the card stock sizes.

I adhered a panel of Take to the Sky designer series paper to a Basic White mat with liquid glue and popped it on the front of a Gray Granite card base with dimensionals. I used the largest circle from the Stylish Shapes dies to cut a cloud filled panel and adhered it to the card.

I used the dies from the Stampin’ Up! Adventurous Sky dies to cut Crushed Curry, Misty Moonlight and Gray Granite card stock to make the plane. I adhered the die cuts together with liquid glue and popped the plane on the card with dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Adventurous Sky stamp set in Misty Moonlight ink on Boho Blue card stock and cut it out with a circle die from the Stylish Shapes dies. I adhered it to the card with a dimensional and finished the card with white adhesive sequins.

For the inside of the card I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Adventurous Sky stamp set in Misty Moonlight ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the small plane in Gray Granite and the clouds in three times stamped off Boho Blue ink. I trimmed the bottom with a strip of DSP and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

I love vintage machines for masculine cards and the die cut bi-plane in the Stampin’ Up! Adventurous Sky bundle is such a fun interpretation. And this bundle is currently on sale, with an extra 10% off, so hurry and get yours.
