Taco Fiesta Cards

It’s Tutorial Thursday! Today I want to show you how to create three cards all from the Taco Fiesta Photopolymer Stamp Set.

For these cards here are the instructions…

Holy Guacamole Card

1. Cut Thick White Card Stock with the Paper Trimmer to 5 ½” X 8 ½”. On the 8 ½” side score at 4 ¼”. This is your card base.
2. Cut Old Olive Card Stock with the Paper Trimmer to 5” X 3 ¾”. Stamp with Old Olive Ink the party favors from Taco Fiesta Photopolymer Stamp Set. Do not attach yet. This is your mat.
3. Cut Early Espresso Card Stock with the Paper Trimmer to 2 ½” X 7”. On the 7” side score at 3 ½”. Attach to the back of the mat with Stampin’ Seal. Now attach the mat with flap attached to the mat.
4. Cut Basic White to 2 ¼” X 3 ½”. Stamp avocado and guacamole bowl in Old Olive Ink. Stamp sentiment and mustache in Early Espresso Ink. Attach to the front flap.
5. Attach Rustic Metallic Adhesive-Backed Dots.

Cacti Card

1. Cut Thick White Card Stock with the Paper Trimmer to 5 ½” X 8 ½”. On the 8 ½” side score at 4 ¼”. This is your card base.
2. Cut Design a Daydream 12” X 12” Host Designer Series Paper with the Paper Trimmer to 3 ½” X 5”. Attach to card base with Stampin’ Seal. This is your outer mat.
3. Cut Design a Daydream 12” X 12” Host Designer Series Paper with the Paper Trimmer to 3” X 5”. Attach to outer mat with Stampin’ Seal. This is your inner mat.
4. Cut Basic White Card Stock with the Paper Trimmer to 2 ½” X 5”. Stamp the cacti across using the Coastal Cabana Ink. (Tip: Grab a thin piece of post-it note to cover the top of the cactus while inking so the sombrero fits properly. Make sure to take the strip off when stamping.) Stamp the sombreros in Coastal Cabana Ink as well. Stamp the chili in Crushed Curry Ink. Stamp the sentiment in Coastal Cabana Ink. Color with Stampin’ Blends (Coastal Cabana light, Cherry Cobbler light, Tahitian Tide light, Daffodil Delight dark, and Evening Evergreen dark used). Attach to inner mat with Stampin’ Seal.

Piñata Card

1. Cut Thick White Card Stock with the Paper Trimmer to 5 ½” X 8 ½”. On the 8 ½” side score at 4 ¼”. This is your card base.
2. Cut strips of bright colored card stock (Calypso Coral, Parakeet Party, Rich Razzleberry, and Pumpkin Pie) with the Paper Trimmer to 1 ½” X 3 7/8” each. Then take your Snips and create fringe leaving at least ½” not cut so it can be glued. Attach to the card base with Stampin’ Seal starting at the bottom.
3. Take a scrap piece of Basic White Card Stock and stamp the horse in Basic Gray Ink. Color with bright Stampin’ Blends (Polished Pink light, Tahitian Tide light, Daffodil Delight dark). Cut out with Snips.
4. Cut a piece of twine from the Three Twine Combo Pack with Snips approximately 3”. Put a Mini Glue Dot on either end to attach to the pinata and under the first layer of fringes. Place a Stampin’ Dimensional behind the pinata and attach.
