Z Box Pop Up Favourite Sale-a-bration Card - SUO Challenges #168

This week's challenge with SUO Challenges to feature a project using  SAB products.  I have so many favourite Sale-a-bration products it was hard to settle on one.  So, I decided to use not one, not two, not three, but four SAB products on my card. These products were incorporated in a Z box Pop Up card, the tutorial for which is from Splitcoaststampers .

The card base was made from Mint Macaron, and the cut out chickens and eggs from "Hey Chick" were attached to the inserts via strips of Window Sheets.
At the base below the chickens, I attached a Whisper White panel on which one of the lace images from "Delicate Lace" was stamped twice with  Crushed Curry ink. This, as well as the panels of sponged "Inside the Lines" DSP on both sides of the "box", was matted with Basic Black card stock.

This side view shows the sentiments on both the back panels. They are from "Avant-Garden" and are stamped with Black Memento on Whisper White the edges of which are sponged with Crushed Curry.

The Inside the Lines DSP panel, of which there are two on this card, is sponged with Crushed Curry, Cajun Craze and Bermuda Bay, picking up the colours used on the Chickens,




The 3 chickens were coloured with an Aqua

painter filled with rubbing alcohol instead of water and ink pads.  Three eggs were stamped, coloured with a Soft Sky marker, and like the chickens, cut out and adhered to the inserts inside the box.

This top view shows the inserts in the box of the Z fold card.

Easter Flowers

...in a vase made with a punch.

The Lily flowers are part of the Easter Messages stamp set, as are the palm fronds.  Put them together and place them in a vase and you have a wonderful Easter Bouquet.

The flowers were masked before stamping the 2 palm fronds.  I coloured them using SU markers.

A vase was made by punching one image in Daffodil Delight using the Best Badge punch and altering the punchie to make it look like a vase. See the picture below.  The dotted lines on the punchie on the punch indicate where I trimmed it with the scissors so that it looks like the punchie lying beside it.

To decorate the vase, I used two of the stamps of the Delicate Details stamp set, and cut out a coloured lily and adhered it to the vase center. Dimensionals adhered the vase to the card front.

I love sponging edges of almost everything.  Sponging gives the images such definition and a finished look. I sponged the edges of the vase, the flowers, and the edges of all the papers making up the card.

Three more coloured lilies were cut out and 2 were adhered over the original lilies; the 3rd just peeking its head over the top of the vase.

After adhering the art piece to a piece of Daffodil Delight card stock, a piece of 1/8" stitched Smoky Slate ribbon was slid under the vase between the dimensionals and adhered behind the Daffodil Delight card stock. A bow made of the same ribbon was placed on the right side.

The Whisper White card base was layered with a Smoky Slate layer, upon which a strip of Scenic Scenery DSP was added. Dimensionals adhered the art piece to the card front.

What's a card without bling? Dazzling details was applied to the flowers and the vase as well as Wink of Stella.  In addition I added metal rimmed rhinestones and smaller rhinestones.

Stamps: Easter Message, Timeless Texture, Delicate Details
Inks: Black Memento, Basic Gray, SU markers (Daffodil Delight, Tangelo Twist, Old Olive, Always Artichoke)
Papers: Whisper White, Basic Gray, Daffodil Delight, Scenic Scenery DSP
Accessories: Best Badge punch, 1/8" stitched Smoky Slate ribbon, Metal rimmed rhinestones, rhinestones, dimensionals, glue dots

The Ice Cream Truck (SAB & Occasions) Sneak Peak)

I was going to name this SAB sneak peak card "Tasty Truck" but when my son saw the card he said "Oh, an Ice Cream Truck" thus the title.

For this card I used 3 SAB  products - Tasty Truck, Delicate Details, Silver Metallic ribbon, and two Occasions catalogue items - watercolor pencils and the Cupcakes and carousel DSP

Art Piece:
After stamping the truck on a 2 3/4 by 2 1/4" piece of Whisper White card stock, it was coloured with the new watercolour pencils and blended with a blender pen. A Crumb Cake SU marker was used to make the shadow under the truck. After aponging the art piece edges it was matted with a 3 by 2 1/2" piece of Bermuda Bay card  stock.  After it was added to the card front  dazzling details was applied to some areas of the truck and ice cream cones.

Card:
The card base is Melon Mambo, layered with Whisper White embossed with the Woodlands embossing folder.  This was sponged very lightly with Bermuda Bay ink to bring out its features.
A piece of Cupcakes and Carousel DSP was added to the bottom , with a strip of the reverse side adhered at the top.
Yesterday I used the gold metallic ribbon; today the 3/8 " silver ribbon, which was adhered at the top edge of this DSP strip.
On a separate piece of Whisper White cardstock, one of the Delicate Details edges was stamped withMelon Mambo and cut out.  The image did not extend all the way across the card, so it was stamped twice and an extra piece attached to one end.  This was adhered above the ribbon.

The art piece was attached to the card at an angle with dimensionals.

Two tiny Bermuda Bay cupcakes were stamped above the sentiment, which was punched with  t he ticket builder punch.  It was layered with Bermuda Bay and the corners notched with a 1/2" circle punch . Some dazzling details was added to the cupcakes after it was adhered to the card fr ont at an angle similar to the art piece.
