A pretty cake themed card, perfect for a birthday celebration

Cake Anyone?

Posted on by

Cake Anyone? – I love a bit of cake and have found myself baking regularly while we are in lock down, trying out all sorts of new recipes – favourite so far is Rhubarb and Orange……. Yum…..

To recreate the cake anyone? card you will need :

Thick Whisper White – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Blushing Bride – 5⅞” by 4⅛”
Silver Foil – 5” by ½”
Rich Razzelberry – 4” by 3”
Whisper White – 3½” by 2½”

I ran the Blushing Bride panel through the Big Shot inside the gorgeous Ornate Floral Embossing Folder. I then cut the panel down on a diagonal – this will give 2 pieces for 2 separate cards.

A silver foil strip was added to the top of the embossed panel with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. The whole piece was then added to the Thick Whisper White card base.

I stamped the sweet cake and cake stand from the Piece of Cake stamp set, onto the Whisper White panel using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. The sentiment was added beneath in Rich Razzelberry ink.

Posted on by

Thick Whisper White cardstock 8½” by 4¼” and scored it on the long side at 5½”
Thick Whisper White cardstock 8” by 3” and scored it on the long side at 4”
Call Me Clover cardstock 5⅜” by 4⅛”
Early Espresso piece 4⅛” by 2⅞”
Call Me Clover 3⅞” by 2⅞”
Whisper White cardstock 3¼” by 2¾”

We began by folding and burnishing the score lines.  Next step was to randomly stamp the ‘dotty cake’ on a piece of Call Me Clover cardstock 5⅜” by 4⅛” in Call Me Clover ink. This layer was then added to the back panel of the larger scored panel. The Early Espresso piece was then added to the smaller panel of the same piece of Thick Whisper White. Both these panels were added with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

The sentiment from the Amazing Life stamp set was stamped in Early Espresso ink onto the small piece of Whisper White. The word ‘CAKE’ was coloured in using the Light Call Me Clover Blends pen.

The cake was stamped in Early Espresso onto scrap Whisper White cardstock and the cake stand was stamped in the same ink onto scrap Call Me Clover cardstock. Both were then punched out using the co-ordinating Cake Builder Punch. The cake was coloured in using the following Blends Pens – Call Me Clover Combo, Lovely Lipstick combo, Balmy Blue combo and Bronze.

We used a Dimensional on the back to attach the cake to the cake stand and added a couple more dimensionals to hold the cake up before adding it to the stamped panel of Whisper White cardstock. This panel was then glued to the smaller layer of Call Me Clover before it was added to the small folded panel of Thick Whisper White being careful to have the fold the right way round…………

We stamped the candles in Call Me Clover ink onto the inner panel adding the sentiment in Early Espresso ink below the candles. Lastly we coloured in some of the Basic Pearls using the Blends pens and added them to the card front.

This card has a more masculine look which I really liked.

We randomly stamped the sentiment in 1st, 2nd and 3rd generation Lovely Lipstick ink down the left side of one of the large Whisper White panels. This panel was then added to the Early Espresso layer with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive and then glued to the Lovely Lipstick card base.

We stamped the cake onto the scrap Whisper White cardstock and punched it out using the Cake Builder Punch. The cake stand was punched from some of the gorgeous Lovely Lipstick Foil.  We used the Blends pens to colour in the cake. We adhered them together with Dimensionals in the same way as the first card.

The cake was added to the stitched white rectangle, then to the stitched Early Espresso rectangle. We added the whole piece to the card front with the Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. The Basic Pearls were then coloured in and added to the card front.

We stamped the smaller ‘bokeh dot’ stamp from the Beauty Abounds in the lower right corner of the Whisper White panel in 3rd generation Lovely Lipstick and balmy Blue inks and in 4th generation Call Me Clover ink.

The sentiment was stamped in Lovely Lipstick ink although some of the ladies chose a different sentiment or no sentiment at all.

The cake was stamped in Early Espresso ink onto scrap Whisper White and punched out as above. We also punched out a plain white cake stand. The cake was coloured in using the same Blends pens as before and the cake and stand were adhered together with Dimensionals. The cake was then added on top of the ‘bokeh dots’.

The stamped layer was added to the strip of Lovely Lipstick Foil. The coloured Basic Pearls were added to the card front.

Wedding Cake for the Stampin ‘n Hop Blog Hop

Posted on by

 

Hello and welcome to February’s Stamp ‘N Hop blog hop where this month’s theme is Love.  If you have hopped over form Andre Gordon’s blog I am sure you loved his gorgeous project. I decided to use the gorgeous Piece of Cake stamp set and co-ordinating Cake Builder Punch to make a wedding cake card for the daughter of a friend who is marrying in the spring.

Making the card

I started by stamping the floral cake image, so pretty, in Early Espresso ink onto a scrap of Whisper White cardstock and punched it out using the Cake Builder Punch. I coloured the flowers in using the Lovely Lipstick Combo Blends Pens, Call Me Clover Combo Blends Pens, dark Balmy Blue blend Pen and the Light Daffodil Delight Blend Pen.

I punched the cake stand out from some of the gorgeous Lovely Lipstick Foil which is one of the free Sale-a-Bration items you can choose with a £45 order. I stuck the cake to the stand with a dimensional where they joined at the back and added a couple more dimensionals to support the cake and stand.

Taking a panel of Whisper White cardstock 4¾” by 3”. I mounted the smaller of the 2 Bokeh Dot stamps from the Beauty Abounds stamp set. I inked it up in Lovely Lipstick ink, stamped off twice and stamped it onto the lower right hand corner of the panel. I repeated this twice more before inked up with Call Me Clover then Balmy Blue stamping each off twice.

I stamped the sentiment from the Piece of Cake stamp set in Lovely Lipstick ink in the lower left hand corner. The cake and stand was then added over the bokeh dots on the dimensionals.

The Whisper White stamped layer was the added to a piece of Lovely Lipstick Foil 5” by 1½” using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I wrapped a length of Lovely Lipstick ⅛” Grosgrain Ribbon around the top of the panel, securing it on the back with Sellotape. I added a bow made from the same ribbon with a Mini Glue Dot. The whole panel was then added to a Thick Whisper White card base with Dimensionals.

I coloured in 3 Basic Pearls using the dark Call Me Clover, dark Lovely lipstick and dark Balmy Blue Blends Pen before scattering them around the cake and stand.

I love this card, such pretty colours. I hope you like it..
