Stamp 'N Hop Blog Hop using the Celebrate With Cake stamp set to create a child card

Girls/Boys for the Stamp ‘N Hop Blog Hop

Welcome to this months Stamp ‘N Hop Blog Hop where our theme is Girls/Boys. If you have hopped over from Libby Dyson’s blog welcome and I hope you will hop on to see what the other talented demos have to share with us this month.

Like many I find children’s card a bit of a challenge and after a lot of messing about I have decided to go simple and slightly left field.

To recreate the Girls/Boys card you will need:

Bermuda Bay card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Terracotta Tile – 5½” by 3¾”
Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” x 2
Scrap Whisper White

I took one of the panels of Whisper White and masked off a strip from top to bottom using Post It notes. I used a Sponge to apply Pool Party ink to the exposed strip of card stock.

I added the Terracotta Tile layer to the Bermuda Bay card base using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive – I decided it looked better offset. The stamped layer was added to the card front, again offset using Dimensionals.

I lined up the following Whisper White panels – The 2 panels measuring 3⅞” by 2⅜” and the 3⅞” by 3⅜” panel. I inked up the detailed Mountain stamp with Night of Navy ink. I repeated this step on all the panels. I cleaned the stamp with the Shammy and turned it over. I inked it up again with Night of Navy ink, stamped off the first layer of ink – 2nd generation – on my grid paper the stamped again on the Whisper White panels, slightly above the original image.

The sentiment was stamped in Lovely Lipstick ink onto the strip of Whisper White which was then trimmed down and the ends flagged before being added to the card front with the liquid adhesive. A trio of faceted dots completed the card.

I hope you like the card.
