Been Missing You

Hey everybody, Happy Thursday! I can’t believe how fast the weeks are flying by… we’re almost half-way through April already! I’ve popped in this afternoon with a super cute faux pull tab card to share for Pajama Crafter Stamps featuring the new Best Friends stamp set. I work ahead on my design team projects whenever possible and have quite a few for Pajama Crafter Stamps that I had created prior to leaving the team at the end of February and hadn’t showcased yet, so you’ll be seeing those coming up.

I saw this fold on Pinterest a while back and thought it would be a fun one to try, and I love how it turned out especially with this adorable pup! I don’t have any instructions for this – I just ‘guesstimated’ and made the horizontal pull tab panel about 3″ x 4-1/4″ and the card base about 3-3/4″ x 5-1/2″ so the whole card is an A2 size.

I cut the card base from CutCardStock Cougar Smooth White cardstock along with layering panels from coordinating papers in the Keep It Simple Snow Day 6×9 and 12×12 Collection Packs. I used a Stampin’ Up 1-1/4″ circle punch to punch a thumb notch in the horizontal panel. Using Spellbinders Standard Circles Large and Small dies, I cut a narrow ring from CutCardStock Kraft Chipboard which I adhered on top of some knotted jute ribbon. I stamped the sentiment and pup in Memento Tuxedo Black ink on Cougar Smooth White cardstock and colored him with alcohol markers. I fussy cut the pup and trimmed the sentiment, and added them to the card front. The finishing touch was adding a Keep It Simple Enamel Heart.

I cut the inside panel from Cougar Smooth White and embellished it with strips of the paper and chipboard used on the front. I added a stamped and trimmed sentiment and layered the panel on red paper.
