Sweet As A Peach Thank You Gift Set
Hello and welcome to my blog; today I have a fun little thank you gift set to share with you using the Sweet As a Peach Stamp Set and the matching You're a Peach Designer Series Paper. This is a great quick little project that you can create and have on hand for those times that you need a little something to give to someone. Here's a look at my projects for today.
Double the Pleasure:
The designer series paper I used for both the card and the bag came from a 1/2 a sheet of the You're a Peach Designer Series Paper. So, from one sheet of DSP cut at 6" x 12". This will allow you to get two cards and two bags from one sheet of 12" x 12" DSP. I then cut it down to 6" x 10 1/2" and the left over was used for the card. On the 10 1/2" side you are going to score at 2 1/2" 5, 7 1/2" & 10". Turn to the 6" side and score at 2 1/2" flip it over and score at the top at 1/2".
Tap Tap Tap:
You maybe wondering where the larger patterned paper came from. Well, I stamped it myself. I love to create my own designer series paper and it's a great way to get a custom look for your projects. I inked up the peach stamp in Pale Papaya Ink and used a Blending Brush with a little Calypso Coral Ink on it and tapped on the ink on one side to create the shadow look.
Ghost Effect:
To finish both the card and the bag I cut a 2" circle form Pear Pizzazz Cardstock using my Layering Circle Dies. I then took my White Craft Ink Pad and stamped the Peach and the stem onto the circle. I then heat set both of them. Next I inked up the peach the same way as I did before and off set stamped it just a little and did the same thing with stem and leaf. This creates a fun ghost effect as well as wonderful texture to the peach that looks fuzzy.
