Pastel Rainbow Cake card

Posted on by

I shared a rainbow cake card on the 18th June and have decided to recreate it using pastel colours and the cake fancy stamp set.

Colours used in this card are:

 

To recreate the pastel rainbow cake card, you will need:

Fresh Freesia card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Smoky Slate card – 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Basic White card – 5¼” by 3½”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside
Scrap Basic White card

 

The sentiment was stamped at the bottom of the 5¼” by 3½” panel of Basic White card in Smoky Slate ink.

The layers of the rainbow cake were then stamped starting with Lemon Lolly, then Bubble Bath, Fresh Freesia, Pool Party and Soft Sea Foam inks. The stamped panel was then glued to the Smoky Slate layer.

Birthday Goodness

Posted on by

I have been playing with the Birthday Goodness stamp set this week and have made a really sweet shaker card for my sister in laws birthday.

To recreate the Birthday Goodness card you will need;

Thick Whisper White card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Rococo Rose cardstock 5 ½” by 3 ¾”
Whisper White cardstock 5⅜ by 3⅝” x 2
Rococo Rose cardstock 4¾” by 3¼”
Window Sheet 5” by 3½”

I die cut a rectangle from the centre of one of the Whisper White layers using a Rectangle Stitched die. Using the same die and the next one up I die cut the frame from the smaller panel of Rococo Rose cardstock.

I stamped the tower of macarons in Basic Gray ink onto the die cut stitched rectangle and coloured it in using the following Blends markers – Rococo Rose combo, Seaside Spray combo and Crumb Cake combo……….don’t they look good enough to eat!

The larger Rococo Rose panel was added to the card front using the same adhesive. Placing the ‘frame’ onto the card front I added the same adhesive to the back of the stamped piece and nestled it inside the frame. The frame was then lifted away abd foam adhesive strips added all round the rectangular aperture making sure to leave no gaps.

I placed a pinch of the Woven Threads Seqiuns on top of the stamped image and added the frame over the top. The sentiment was stamped on basic Gray ink and added to the card front with Mini Glue Dots.

I’ve been using the Happiest of Days stamp set to make a birthday card today. I stamped the sweet cake image on a scrap of Whisper White cardstock using Momento Tuxedo Black ink and die cut it out using one of the Stitched Shapes Framelit dies and my Big Shot. I cut a slightly larger oval using the Layering Ovals dies and Old Olive cardstock and layered them together with Tombow Liquid Adhesive.

Dainty floral cake for a congratulations card

Cake Soiree and bunting

Posted on by

I have been playing with the Cake Soiree Stamp Set over the last few days. Such pretty, delicate images in this stamp set which at first glance screamed weddings to me but it can be used for so much more.

To make the card

I started with a panel of Very Vanilla cardstock 4 ¾” by 3” and stamped the intricate floral cake image in Momento Tuxedo Black ink at the bottom. I coloured in the flowers using the Light & Dark Daffodil Delight and the Light Calypso Coral Stampin’ Blends. I used the Light & Dark Old Olive Blends to colour in the leaves.

I stamped the ‘bunting’ and the sentiment from the In The Trees stamp set in Momento Tuxedo Black ink in the upper right hand corner of the Very Vanilla panel and coloured the bunting in using the Light & Dark Daffodil Delight, Light Calypso Coral Stampin’ Blends and the Light Old Olive Stampin’ Blends Pens.

I rounded the upper left corner using the WRMK Corner Rounder and added it to a layer of Daffodil Delight cardstock, also with a rounded corner using Tombow Liquid Adhesive. I wanted to soften the card and add some texture so added a piece of Very Vanilla Lace Trim to the right side of the stamped panel and added the finished topper to a Crumb Cake card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I stamped the small flowers in Daffodil Delight ink and rolled the edges of one in Calypso Coral ink and the other in Crushed Curry ink before die cut them using the Sweet Cake Builder Dies. I added one to the top of the cake using Tombow Liquid Adhesive and the other on a Stampin’ Dimensional.

I hope you like the card today.
