Birthday Wishes

Hi there folks,

Very quick and easy make today, but doesn’t it look terrific?

I have used the Happiest of Days stamp set.

I made a card base from Berry Burst card stock in the usual way by cutting A4 lengthways at 4 1/8 inches then scoring at 5 7/8 inches.

The white card layer is cut to 4 by 5 3/4 inches. The rose was stamped over this in Berry Burst ink. This was adhered flat to the card base.

The sentiment was also stamped in Berry Burst ink on to a scrap piece of white card. I originally intended to span this across the card but ended up cutting it down and adding to a Berry Burst layer.

I finished the card with a bow and Glitter Enamel Dots.

I hope you enjoyed this project. The supplies used are listed and linked below.

Cool

Hello Everyone,

I thought I would make something summery for you today.

I started by creating the ice cream cones. The elements were all cut with the Frozen Treats Framelits. I chose Flirty Flamingo, So Saffron and Pool Party for the scoops. Crumb Cake and Chocolate Chip was used for the cones and chocolate topping.

A piece of Whisper White card was partially cut with the largest stitched square framelit. The die was moved along and partially die cut again to make a rectangle. This was layered on to some Wild Wasabi card stock.

Add the ice creams to this piece with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

A Whisper White card layer was decorated with the sprinkles stamp from the Cool Treats set using Crumb Cake ink. Some Lemon Lime Twist ribbon was adhered across the middle before adding to a Wild Wasabi card blank.

I added the ice cream panel to the card base with Fast Fuse adhesive. A knot of ribbon was also added with a glue dot.

The sentiment was stamped in Wild Wasabi ink and then cut with a small oval die.

I hope you enjoyed this project. The supplies used are listed and linked to the shop below.
