Crafting a Stunning Card in a Box with Wellie Boots Stamp.

Hello everyone!

Today I am happy to share with you my Design Team inspiration card featuring the beautiful “Wellie Boots” image from All Dressed Up Stamps. Wendy released three digital stamps this month. I made this fun card in a box with that.

I got to work with the digital stamp Wellie Boots. When I saw this stamp, I imagined her looking satisfied over her field of flowers after her hard work. Join me on this creative journey as we delve into the making of this card in a box and the products that brought it to life.

Step-by-step tutorial:Designing the card in a box

To create a unique and dimensional card, I decided to create a card in a box. This style adds depth and creates a beautiful visual. I carefully placed “Wellie Boots” so that its look like the girl is standing in the middle of a field of blooming flowers.

Step 1. Coloring and detailing.

To bring the digital stamp Wellie Boots to life, I used my alcohol markers (Twinmarkers) to color the digital stamp.

  • Skin: Barely Beige (29), Salmon Pink (25), Peachy Blush (29) and Tanned Skin (260).
  • Hair: Caramel (253), Brown Grey (104), Walnut (100) and Clay (116).
  • Shirt: Pastel Pink (17), Pale Pink (09) and Rose Pink (08).
  • Trousers: Light Sky (189), Midi Sky (190), Dark Sky (191) and Dark Denim Blue (195).
  • Boots: Primary Yellow (221), Lemon Yellow (35), Yellow (34) and Orange (23).
  • Shovel: Blue Grey 5 (BG5), Blue Grey 3 (BG3) and Blue Grey 1 (BG1).

Step 2: Building the card in the box (Inspired by Ink something Crafty):

To give my card structure and dimension, I followed the tutorial provided by Ink Something crafty. By following her step-by-step instructions, I successfully made a beautiful box in a card. To view the original tutorial and gain a deeper understanding of the box-building process, please visit her tutorial.

For my card base, I chose heavy weight white card stock, so it would be stable while showing the scene inside.

I used the following materials:

  • Blue cardstock: 4 1/4″ x 3 1/2″ (for the back standing part)
  • White cardstock: 4″ x 3 1/4″ (for the background on the back)
  • Patterned paper: 4 1/4″ x 1″ (for the front, scored 3/8″ from both sides)
  • White cardstock: 2 pieces of 2 3/8″ x 2″ (for the sides of the box)
  • Patterned paper: 1 3/4″ x 1 3/4″ (for layering the sides)
  • White cardstock: 4 1/4″ x 3/4″ (for the center of the box, scored 3/8″ from both sides)

With these materials I followed the instructions of Ink Something crafty and made this beautiful card in the box .

Step 3: Creating the scenic background

To bring the scene to life, I used my 4″ x 3 1/4″ white card stock as the background and incorporated clouds and grass elements. I also used the pieces for the the layering sides.

  1. Cloudy Sky: Using a cloud stencil, I placed it on the white card stock. Then, with a blending tool, I create clouds all over the background. This technique added depth and a dreamy atmosphere to the scene.
  2. Grass: To give the girl a place to stand, I die-cut a piece of grass using a grass-shaped die. I chose different shades of green to bring different colors to the grass. To give the piece some texture I applied green splatters with my metallic paint. When I was happy with the color, I placed the grass at the bottom of the card stock.

Adding clouds and grass really brought the background to life and created a perfect setting for the girl to enjoy her field of flowers..

Step 4: Embellishing with pattern paper

To add beauty and dimension to the card, I used patterned paper for the front of the card and incorporated the flowers from the paper as embellishments in the layered parts of the grass.

From the chosen pattern, I carefully cut out the flowers to use as embellishments. From the paper I cut the different sizes of flowers. This way you get diversity and a more dynamic whole.

As a sentiment, I stuck the word Flowers on the front of the card in the box. The hearts in the background next to the girl indicates that she loves this.

Step 5: Assembling the card

With all the parts ready I glued the image to the back of my card. I stick all my flowers with glue on the grass layers. I placed two butterflies on my background.

I loved making this card. I hope this blog post has inspired you to create your own card in a box. The possibility’s are endless.
