Special birthday card using Stampin' Up! product

Perennial Birthday with Large Numbers

Today I am sharing a card I made for one of my team mates who celebrated her special birthday in the week prior to OnStage in Telford – so the partying continued………what can I say!

I chose the large sentiment from the Perennial Birthday stamps set and mounted it onto one of the plates of my Stamparatus Stamp Positioning Tool. I placed a panel of Blushing Bride cardstock 5” by 3¼” onto the platform then inked up the stamp using Blushing Bride ink and stamped multiple times moving  the panel down using the hinge stamping method. I die cut the largest scalloped circle from the Layering Circle dies from the centre of a panel of Chocolate Chip cardstock 5⅛” by 3⅜” and used the remains of the panel to mount the stamped panel and set it aside.

Taking a panel of Whisper White cardstock approx 3½” by 3½” and my Big Shot I die cut the largest stitched circle from the Stitched Shapes Framelit Dies. I inked up the flower and leaf stamps from the set using Flirty Flamingo, Rich Razzelberry and Wild Wasabi Markers and stamped them onto tthe stitched circle.

Using the Large Number dies I die cut a 5 and a 0 from Champagne Foil and a further 3 times each from scrap Whisper White cardstock. I glued the die cuts together using Tombow Liquid Adhesive ending with the Champagne Foil on top. I added the numbers to the stitched circle using Tombow and mounted the circle onto the die cut Chocolate Chip scalloped circle.

Using Tombow Liquid Adhesive I added the stamped circle to the stamped Blushing Bride panel, slightly off set and trimmed off the excess. The whole panel was added to the front of a Blushing Bride card base using Tombow.

To finish off I added a scattering of Iridescent Sequins.and stamped the same flower on a panel of Whisper White cardstock 5⅜” by 3⅝” and added it to the inside using Tombow.

Such a pretty card, let me know what you think.

Spring/Summer cards and a lidded box

Easter/Spring Adult Education All Day Event

Thank you to all the lovely ladies who came to my Adult Education Easter/Spring themed event on Sunday 25th March. I am sharing today the projects they made. I had set up 5 project tables where they made either 2 cards or a simple lidded box + the sweet little bird house featured in the post on the 23rd March.

On arrival each lady was given a pack containing all the pre-cut cardstock layers and card bases they needed to complete the card projects and during the day they moved from table to table making all the projects. The lidded box was pre-scored for them and just needed to be trimmed, put together and decorated. They did use the Simply Scored Scoring Tool to score the cardstock for the birdhouse and assembled this from scratch.

At the table featuring the Watercolor Wings set they were able to try out 4 step stamping using the new Stamparatus  stamp positioning tool which was a resounding success, everybody loved it! They also used the sponge brayer plus an embossing folder and Big Shots to die cut lots of pieces. They also used the Stampin’ Blends on a couple of the projects and really enjoyed using them.
