Foursquare Mask & Crafting With You – Sending Handmade Hug

Today’s card features the Crafting With You bundle as well as the Foursquare Decorative Masks. The Crafting With You stamp and dies bundle was one of the first items in my Annual Catalog preorder. How can you be a crafter and not have this set?! Imagine all the cards you can make and send out to your crafting buddies or really anyone. This set is so versatile in what you can do with it.

The dies cut all the images in the stamp plus it includes additional craft related dies that you’re sure to love. It has a paper trimmer, spool and thread, embroidery hoop, stars, hearts, buttons and a ruler – they’re adorable.

The stamp set images include a sewing machine, yarn, basket, Stampin’ Cut & Emboss machine, paint brushes, easel, heart and four nice sentiments.

Background Detail

Let’s talk about the background. Each of the color blocks were inked with a blending brush and masked (covered) using copy paper to create a distinct separation between each of them. After I added the color blocks, I inked up two of the stencil images from the Foursquare masks with the same color ink in each block. Because the background was colorful, the images were stamped with Pebbled Path – one of the new In Colors. Love this neutral color!

Card Detail

  • Card base – Pebbled Path – 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ scored at 4-1/4″
  • White cardstock for color blocks 5-1/4″ x 4
  • Color block colors: Lost Lagoon, Lemon Lime Twist, Berry Burst, Lemon Lolly & Boho Blue
  • Stampin’ Cut & Emboss machine was stamped with Pebbled Path ink onto a white stitched circle.
  • The sentiment strip is 3″ x 1-1/2″ and I believe stamped with Blueberry Bushel. I forgot to jot the color down as I was stamping. It was mounted with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  • The stampin’ trimmer was die cut with Pebbled Path cardstock using the Crafting With You dies.
  • Scissor handle was die cut from Pebbled Path cardstock and blades with Smoky Slate cardstock using the same dies.
