Wonky Windows Cards with Bobbi and Catherine

Hi there. It's Bobbi Lemanski here sharing another card featuring the new Wonky Windows die set. This set will quickly be one of my staples because not only do you get these fun-shaped windows, but also three uniquely shaped pennants to dress up your cards. Today, I paired the cute windows with that yummy Cupcake Shaped Die set we all love. On the outside, this card teases a little with some treat tidbits. When the card is opened, a big cupcake with all the fixings is waiting for the birthday celebration!

To make this 5" X 7" card, I cut the card base at 10" wide X 7" tall and scored down the center.  I also cut the front panel measuring 5" X 7".  I used Neenah 80lb Solar White cardstock for all the pieces. I die cut two rows of the wonky windows on a diagonal for interest. The Wonky Windows die cuts all three windows at once which makes it easy to use.

For the front panel, I splattered black watercolor paint and added some red specks using a marker. I used a fine-tip black marker and added faux double stitching around each window. I added grey tones Subtle Grey Tones pattern paper to the back of the windows and attached it in place. Next, I added lots of fun bits from the Cupcake Shape Dies set. Two cherries, two candles, two hearts, small confetti, and the pennants from the Wonky Windows set were added to the windows. I used Ranger Distress Oxide Inks in Mermaid Lagoon, Carved Pumpkin, and Worn Lipstick to color the banners, pennants, and hearts. I list the Copic colors I used for the other colored elements below. I added Red Zircon Jewels, Blue Topaz Jewels, Orange Topaz Jewels and some enamel gem stickers to the windows. I stamped the phrase in the lower right corner. 

Inside the card, I added the elements of the Cupcake Shape Dies and colored them using the following Copics. These are the same colors I used on the front panel.

• Blue/Greens: B49, B23, BG11
• Reds: R46, R29, R24, R17, R14, R22, R20
• Browns: E59, E57, E55
• Yellows: Y38, Y19, Y15, Y13
• Oranges: YR68, YR65, YR61, YR04
• Greens: YG67, YG03 (front panel cherry stems)

Notice that I cut the candles and the white heart at slants at the bottom edges to make them look like they are inserted into the frosting. I used a white gel pen and red marker to add some frosting texture. I added fun details like the cute pennants from the Wonky Windows set to the cupcake. I used a fine-tip black marker to "connect" the pennants around the cake. I used the Kiddie Pool stamp set for the "It's your birthday/Day" phrases. Lastly, I stamped the phrase, "you deserve this", taken from the Inside Greetings Congrats stamp set, at the bottom to finish the card. This card fits inside an A7 size envelope for giving.

Hi Friends! It’s Catherine here sharing a fun underwater card featuring the new Wonky Windows Die! 

For the foreground, I die cut the Wonky Windows Frame onto white cardstock 4.25” x 5.5”.  I ink blended the cardstock from the outside working my way towards the center of the card starting with Blueprint Sketch followed by Peacock Feathers and Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Inks. I then sprayed water onto the card and left it to dry.

For the background, I ink blended the top half of another piece of white cardstock of the same size with Chipped Sapphire and Wilted Violet Distress Oxide Inks and I sprayed water onto the card. Once the foreground was dry, I white heat embossed the sentiment and air bubbles onto the card.

I stamped images pulled from the Fintastic Friends, Tropical Scenes, and Kiddie Pool sets. I colored the sea animals, divers, sea plants, and coral bed with Copic markers and die cut with the coordinating dies. I marked the framed area on the background and glued on the sea plants. I then attached the frame onto the background with foam tape. I finished off the card by adding the cute sea animals, divers, and coral bed.
