Sweet birthday card featuring a toucan

Bird Banter card

Posted on by

Today I am sharing a sweet little card made using the Bird Banter stamp set from the Spring/Summer Catalogue.

I started with a panel of Whisper White cardstock measuring 3⅞” by 2⅜”. I stamped the sentiment in Momento Tuxedo Black ink at the bottom of the panel and added the ‘toucan’ image on top using the same ink. I added the balloon in the Momento Tuxedo Black ink.

I used the following Stampin’ Blends to colour in the image – Light & Dark Night of Navy, Light & Dark Bermuda Bay, Light & Dark Daffodil Delight and Light & Dark Pool Party. I added a retired Black Rhinestone eye to the bird.

I rounded the top of the panel with my Envelope Punch Board and backed it with a panel of Daffodil Delight cardstock measuring 4” by 2½”, also with a rounded corner.

Taking a Pool Party card base I stamped the left side of the card front using Pool Party ink and added a 5⅞” by ¾” piece of Bubble and Fizz dsp using Tombow Liquid Adhesive. The stamped panel was added to the card front on Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Such a simple, sweet card. Hope you like it.

Tutti-Frutti Pandas for Team Training Swaps

Posted on by

Today I’m sharing the swaps Tutti-Frutti Panda cards I have made for tomorrows Team Training Event organised by my lovely Upline Mikaela Titheridge.

wanted to use the absolutely lovely Tutti-Frutti Cards & Envelopes which are one of the free choices with a £45 order in the 2018 Sale-a-Bration brochure. These are so easy to overlook in amongst the more glamourous stamp sets, dsp and dies but they really are lovely, beautiful colours and so versatile. I wanted the pretty card fronts to be seen so looked for a fairly small image for my cards.

I settled on the quirky Party Pandas stamp set which is also a free choice from the 2018 Sale-a-Bration brochure. I stamped the sweet panda with the balloon in the lower left corner of a panel of Whisper White cardstock 4” by 2½”. I used Archival Basic Black ink and found I had better results using a stamp positioner such as a Stamparatus with a really well inked pad. I didn’t bother to ink up the balloon as I planned to cover it with dsp balloons. I added the sentiment from the same set in a co-ordinating Bermuda Bay, Daffodil Delight, Calypso Coral or Lemon Lime Twist ink.

I rounded the upper right corner of the Whisper White cardstock panel using the retired Project life Corner Rounder and added a piece of 3¼” by 1¾” cardstock in either Bermuda Bay, Calypso Coral or Lemon Lime Twist behind the lower right corner and added the whole piece to one of the Tutti-Frutti card bases.

I punched a selection of large and small balloons from the Bubble & Fizz dsp pack, another free 2018 Sale-a-Bration choice with a £45 order, using the Balloon Bouquet Punch. The smaller balloons were added to the card front with Tombow Liquid Adhesive. The larger balloon was added on Stampin’ Dimensionals. Such a cute card and I love that all the items used with the exception of the ink pads were free!!!!
