Hello Crafters,

In issue 15 of Chloe's Creative Cards Collection box kit, Chloe created a stunningly beautiful stamp-along project featuring fairies frolicking playfully in an enchanted garden. You will have noticed, however, that within the magazine you don't receive the full instructions on how to create the card. This is because we wanted to bring you this bonus project in the form of a Stamp-Along. To create it, you will need the kit content from the new Chloe's Creative Cards Collection Issue 15 along with a selection of other materials, detailed below and in the downloadable PDF project sheet. You will be stencilling, stamping, die-cutting, heat-embossing, and glittering to your heart's content within this Stamp-along, so you're bound to have lots of fun re-creating the look!

Here's a larger shot of the card that we're going to be recreating - it's such a great design for the young and the young at heart that could be easily adapted to create a box frame, gift box lid, or a canvas for a child's bedroom wall!

Chloe has created full step-by-step instructions and material listing for you to follow along, but to make it even easier for you, we've also created a downloadable, printable version that you'll be able to go back to time and time again. This digital PDF even has all the products linked to our website, so if there's anything you need to buy, you can simply click on the product and it will take you through to the relevant product page on our website. Please note, items that aren't available on our website will have no links. You can also substitute certain items if you don't have them in your craft stash.

Instructions:

1 Die-cut a scalloped square from white card, edge using a chisel-tip glue pen, cover with Crystallina Sparkelicious glitter, and affix to the base card using foam pads. Die-cut a pierced square from floral patterned paper, matt onto orange paper and affix to the base card using foam pads. Die-cut a smaller pierced square from pink paper, then affix to the base card using foam pads.

2 Take a sheet of white card and tape the stencil in place. Ink through the design using Distress Oxide inkpads and blending brushes. Remove the stencil, allow the ink to dry, then trim to size.

3 Apply PVA glue to glitter the centres of the flowers and the flower stems. Allow the glue to dry fully then affix to the base card.

4 Die-cut a scalloped square frame from white card, cover with PVA glue and sprinkle with Chunky Crystallina Sparkelicious glitter. Affix to the base card using foam pads.

5 Stamp four fairies onto white card using a Versafine inkpad, cover with Clear Gloss embossing powder and heat to set. Colour in the fairies using Copic markers. Cut out the dresses and cover with Chunky Crystallina glitter, then layer the fairies and dresses together.

6 Stamp two fairies onto heat-resistant acetate using a clear embossing inkpad, cover with Opaque Bright White Superfine embossing powder and heat to set. Turn the acetate over so you are working on the back, infill the wings with PVA glue and cover with Glistening Ice Sparkelicious glitter. Allow the glue to dry so the glitter shines through, then place behind the fairies and affix to the base card. Complete card by adding a sentiment, bow, and pearls.
