Build A Birthday Candles Card

Hello and welcome back...

Today's card uses the Build A Birthday stamp set and also the Cherry On Top Designer Washi Tape.

 

The candles are not stamped they are made using the Cherry On Top Washi Tape...Fun aren't they.

 

My base card is Delightful Dijon, with a layer of Whisper White cut shorter than the card base.

 

I cut the Washi Tape in varying lengths and then stamped the flame in Delightful Dijon on each candle.

 

I added some faux stitching around the edge with my Delightful Dijon Marker.

 

Then I made a little banner stamped with Birthday Wishes in Watermelon Wonder and popped it on the card with dimensionals. To finish I punched out a flower from the Itty Bitty Accents Punch Pack and added it to the banner.

 

 The same card but on a Cucumber Crush card base.

Build A Birthday Card

Hello and welcome back....

Today's card is simple but sweet....

 

I started off with a Thick Whisper White base card and added a Cucumber Crush mat.

 

Then I stamped the cake stand in Tip Top Taupe and the cake layers in Watermelon Wonder, Delightful Dijon and Cucumber Crush. I used the flower from the Itty Bitty Accents Punch Pack to create some little flowers for the cake and added a pearl to each one.

 

Lastly I stamped the sentiment in Watermelon Wonder.

 

The thick Whisper White card is just perfect for card bases, I prefer to use the thinner Whisper White for stamping on and water colouring.

Build A Birthday meets Ballon Celebration

Hello and A Happy New Year...

On the 5th January 2016 our New Spring/Summer Catalogue goes live and today I am going to share a card which gives a sneak peak at a gorgeous stamp set from that catalogue.

 

The base card is Bermuda Bay, with a layer of Tip Top Taupe. I created the side panel using the New Stamp set Balloon Celebration, stamping one of the balloons in Bermuda Bay. Watermelon Wonder, Crushed Curry and Cucumber Crush.

 



 

I made a mask by stamping the balloon on a sticky note and cutting it out, then covering a balloon before stamping. I used the Tip Top Taupe Marker to draw the strings and the White Gel Pen to do some high lights on the balloons.

 

I stamped the cake stand in Tip Top Taupe and the cake layers in Bermuda Bay, Watermelon Wonder, Cucumber Crush and Crushed Curry on a piece of Whisper White card and then cut it out. I added it to the card using dimensionals.

 

I stamped the sentiment at the top in Basic Black and added the flags on top which I had stamped on white card and cut out.

 

Finally I added some of the In Colour Blossom Accents to finish it off.

Happy 18th Birthday

Hello and welcome back...

Today is my Sons 18th Birthday and this is the card I made for him....

 

I used the Build a Birthday Stamp set to stamp the cake stand in Smoky Slate and then I cut it out and stuck it to the card with dimensionals.

 

I stamped the background with the spats from the Gorgeous Grunge Stamp set and the Stars from the Perpetual Birthday Calendar Stamp set in Island Indigo.

 

I used various Washi Tapes to create the layers on the cake and stamped the flag topper on the top in Island Indigo.

I used a new set from the Spring / Summer catalogue to cut out the 18 from Silver card, love the new size.

 

 

Safe to say he loved it.....

Hearth & Home By The Sea

Hello and welcome back.....

Today's card is again using the Hearth and Home Thinlits Dies, but this time teamed with the Brick Wall Embossing Folder.....

The base card here is Chocolate Chip. The next layer is Whisper White which has been put through the Big Shot in the Brick Wall Embossing Folder. I have brayered over the raised bricks with Pool Party ink.

The window has been cut out of Very Vanilla and I have used the Tea Lace Paper Doilies to make some faux curtains, then I have put a piece of So Saffron card behind the window frame.

I stuck the flower box under the window and put a piece of Cucumber Crush card in behind it, then added some tiny flowers with a touch of glitter in the center. I added the little seahorse to the window (inspired by a house down by the Harbour that has one just like this...)

Lastly I added a little banner with a Birthday sentiment from the Build a Birthday Stamp Set...

The finished card reminds me of the houses down by the harbour with their different coloured painted bricks...so pretty....
