Font of You Summer Spectacular...

I'm hosting a class today featuring the Font of You stamp set. It will be available to order in the new Stampin' Up! year, which starts July 1, though it's not pictured in the new catalog.

Individual photos with descriptions are below. There are three regular cards, a matchbox, and a pop-up gift card holder.

Have a wonderful Sunday! Thanks for visiting.

Font of You Look Here card...

Make that special person feel even more special with a pop-up card using the new Look Here die for the Big Shot (available July 1).

First, decorate the front of the card. I used Riding Hood Red for the base, with layered of Sweet Slumber specialty paper and Baja Breeze. The mug image from Font of You was stamped in Chocolate Chip ink on Baja Breeze, sponged around and layered on Whisper White.

I attached a silver library clip at the top and adhered a knot of white taffeta with a mini glue dot.

For the inside, I ran a 6" x 8-1/2" piece of Baja Breeze through the Look Here die, popping out the half circles, one arrow and two other garbage pieces. I adhered the arrow to some Sweet Slumber paper and cut it out, adhering it over the hole it popped out of with a dimensional.

I used a 3-7/8" x 5" piece of Close to Cocoa card stock I stamped with mugs in the same ink to layer behind the top part of the diecut piece. There's an actual Starbuck's gift card in the photo.

For the front arrow, I stamped and cut out the mug and adhered it with dimensionals over the arrow.

All that's needed is a hand-written note to your friend!

Font of You matchbox goody...

The matchbox die for the Big Shot is the perfect size to give a friend a little something from time to time.

Here, the body of the box is Kiwi Kiss, with some Rockabilly specialty paper for the sleeve. I punched a large oval from the top and adhered a rectangle of clear acrylic behind it for a window.

For my class today, everyone is getting chocolate covered coffee beans, but I wanted something in the box for this photo, so I went with peanut M&Ms... my hubby's favorite.

This sentiment from Font of You was stamped in Chocolate Chip ink and punched out with the Word Window punch. It was then layered on a tag that is part of the matchbox die, then knotted with natural hemp onto a piece of 5/8" Chocolate Chip grosgrain.

Font of You vase card...

The crazy flowers are this card are made with letters. I think I love this Font of You stamp set so much because I was a journalist in my former life. The idea of making images out of letters fascinates me.

Anyway, the card itself is Whisper White, with layers of Certainly Celery and Tempting Turquoise. The designer paper is from the Flock Together pack, which will be in the new catalog starting July 1.

I stamped the vase in turquoise on Certainly Celery card stock, cut it out and adhered it with dimensionals. I finished the card with three silver brads.

Font of You coffee card...

This Kraft card features the hot mug and sentiment that goes with the stamp from the Font of You set.

What I really like about the mug is that it can be for anybody's favorite hot drink - hot chocolate, tea, coffee....

The specialty paper is from the Parisian Breeze pack. It's distressed around the edges with the cutter kit, as well as the Chocolate Chip card stock layer behind it.

The mug was stamped in Chocolate Chip on Very Vanilla card stock, layered on Chocolate Chip (both layers distressed again). I used the horizontal slot punch to make the hole for the knot of 5/8" Chocolate Chip grosgrain.

The sentiment was punched out with the Word Window punch, then I added a Vintage Brad and adhered whole thing with mini glue dots.

Font of You umbrella card...

Some specialty card stock with a cloud pattern laid the foundation for this Baja Breeze umbrella card. The card stock is from the Sweet Slumber pack.

The umbrella stamp and saying are from the Font of You stamp set. I punched two 1/8" holes on either side of the umbrella handle for the white taffeta ribbon.

The Confetti White card stock is layered on Basic Gray. There's even a strip of Basic Gray behind the top two layers that's been punched with the scallop edge punch.
