Lemon Zest and the Stamp Review Crew
Lemonade Anyone?
The Stamp Review Crew brings you the Lemon Zest Stamp Set! I decided since I was given lemons, I needed to make some lemonade! So I incorporated the Jar of Love Stamp Set and Everyday Jars framelits dies to create a country glass of fresh lemonade! They are the perfect match!
Step-by-Step Instructions:
- With a Stampin’ Trimmer, cut a piece of Whisper White Thick Cardstock to 4 1/4″ x 11″. Score and fold at 5 1/2″.
- Cut a piece of Pineapple Punch Designer Series Paper & Shimmery White Cardstock to 3 1/2″ x 4 3/4″.
- Using an Aqua Painter, add a watercolor wash background of Pineapple Punch.
- Stamp the background stamp from the Artisan Textures Stamp Set in Pineapple Punch and stamp within the watercolor Wash background,
- Adhere both pieces as shown with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Stamp the lemon slice and full lemon image in Pineapple Punch Ink onto Shimmery White Cardstock. Blend the color with an Aqua Painter.
- Snip the lemon slice to create one large and two small wedges.
- Stamp the Jar Image in StazOn onto Vellum Cardstock. Crop it with the coordinating die and a Big Shot.
- Crop an additional jar of Shimmery White Cardstock. Color with Pineapple Punch and an Aqua Painter. (only part way to the top)
- Crop a straw using the die and Pineapple Punch Designer Series Paper. Adhere the large lemon wedge, a small lemon wedge, straw and the two jar pieces together with Snail adhesive. Tip: only place adhesive around the edge of the jar so that it does not show through the vellum.
- Adhere the full lemon, small lemon wedge and jar to the card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals,
- Stamp the Happy Birthday sentiment in Versamark on Basic Black Cardstock. Cover with Whisper White Stampin’ Emboss Powder, set with a Heat Tool. Snip to size with a Paper Snips and adhere with Snail Adhesive.
- Add 3 Black Faceted Dots for a final touch.
Vellum Cardstock is a must have in your craft supplies. It works well to portray the look of glass so I used it to help me create the depth of the lemonade and to make it look like the lemon and straw were inside. Make sure to use StazOn, it stamps and dries best when using Vellum!
Stamping sentiment on Black Cardstock and embossing them with White Embossing Powder really makes them stand out and pop off the card! Yellow and black work so well together!
