Posted on August 1, 2024July 21, 2024 by Mo Rootes

Here is a pretty lemon & blackberry themed card made using the gorgeous Cake Fancy stamp set.

Colours in this card are:

To recreate the lemon & blackberry cake card, you will need:

Lemon Lolly card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Blackberry Bliss card – 4” by 3⅜”
Basic White card – 4½” by 3¾”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3½” – for the inside
Scrap Basic White & Blackberry Bliss

Using one of the floral images from the Cake Fancy stamp set, I stamped down the left and right sides of the Lemon Lolly card front using Lemon Lolly ink.

On the 4½” by 3¾” panel of Basic White card I stamped the cake stand in Gray Granite ink. I added the ‘ground’ image from the Trucking Along stamp set using the same ink.

Using Lemon Lolly ink, I stamped two tiers of cake on top of the cake stand adding a ribbon bow in Blackberry Bliss ink. I added the icing swirls on top of the cake with Blackberry Bliss ink.

The image was then die cut using the Perennial Postage dies. I ran the panel through the Cut & Emboss Machine twice as I wanted a shorter rectangle. This was then glued to the Blackberry Bliss panel.

I worked out where I wanted the panel on the Lemon Lolly card front and stamped another row of small flowers down the right-hand edge of the decorated panel. This piece was then added to the card front on Dimensionals.

The sentiment was stamped in Blackberry Bliss onto scrap Basic White card. I die cut it with the same Perennial Postage Dies. I added a slightly larger piece of Blackberry Bliss card behind and added it to the card front.

A trio of Opal Rounds finished the card.
