Welcome to our All Star monthly blog hop for the Les Shoppes Suite! We are excited to share even MORE ideas than what we are offering in our exclusive Video Class Bundle.
The the images in the stamps, dies, and paper designs are perfect for building scenes. So of course I had to do just that. The card I’m sharing today is a simple diorama card. But you could go beyond and make multiple layers and really build up a fun city scene with even more detail.
My original plan was to make a few variations of this card. But I ran out of time before my hand surgery. So now I leave that up to you! Please share with me the variations you come up with.
A few hours ago I shared live on YouTube and on Facebook step-by-step directions for creating this card with the Let’s Go Shopping Stamp Set, the Let’s Go Shopping Dies, the Les Shoppes Designer Paper, the Soft Shimmer Paper, and other coordinating Stampin’ Up!® product. And now I’m sharing that video here in my blog post. Be sure to watch the video by clicking here (or you can just click on this image below if you are already on my blog post), scroll through the close-up photos that follow, check out the measurements & products list below, and then let me know if you have any questions.
I hope you enjoyed what I shared (with the help of my friend Terri Phelps!) in this video. Below are measurements, close-up photos, and a product list for what I demonstrated.
