Beach Buddies Card with Bobbi

Hey everyone, Bobbi here. Guess who is having a pool party this summer? BARBIE!  Wherever you look this season, it's all about Barbie, Ken and the new Barbie movie. I went to see the movie last weekend so I have Barbie on my mind. I made this card featuring the Beach Buddies stamps and dies. Are you ready for some hot pink?! Let's go!

To make this 5" X 7" card, I I started by stamping and die cutting the beach buddies using the coordinating stamps and dies. I colored them using lots of pink! For the accessories, I used the hottest and brightest pinks including Copic colors, RV02, RV04, RV06, RV09, and RV17. I cut the pool using the Swimming Pool dies and three palm trees from the set, Tropical Trees Backdrop Dies.

To create the scene, I attached the pool in the middle of my front panel, blended on some Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide ink for the clouds in the sky above the pool and used a fine-tip black marker and ruler to create the concrete squares around the pool terrace in the foreground. I used Copics in W3 and W1 to add some color to the concrete along with a few black dots for divots in the concrete. I kept it simple to let all the accessories show brightly.

I tucked a few palm trees behind the pool and added a number of hot pink accessories in the foreground. I added the floaties, animals, beach bag, bunny and accessories to the card. I hand cut a beach towel, adding scissor-cut fringe to the edges and stamped hearts on it for a print. I used the sand shovel stamp to make poolside tropical drinks. Barbie loves pink hearts so I stamped a string of hearts between the palm trees and connected them with a black marker. I attached hot pink rhinestone gem stickers to each hanging heart, the heart-shaped sunglasses, the beach bag, the drinks and the "summer sunshine" sentiment for some fun, sparkly, bling. I think this party would be Barbie-approved!

Scrumptious Cupcakes Cards with Cathy

Hey friends! Cathy here today and I've got a deliciously sweet CAS card for you featuring the Scrumptious Cupcakes Stamps!

This is an A2 card and I started by die-cutting a piece of white cardstock using the Frilly Frames Retro Petals Die. I cut a piece of aqua cardstock 3 1/2" x 5" and adhered the white frame over it on the card front.

Next, I die-cut a piece of white cardstock using the second largest Stitched Semi-Circle Die and adhered it to the center of the card front using foam dimensional tape. I stamped the cupcakes from the Scrumptious Cupcakes Stamps and die-cut them using the coordinating dies. I added Pure White Jewels to the frosting as little candy pieces.

To finish, I die-cut 2 pieces of kraft cardstock using a die from the Notebook Photo Corners Dies. I heat embossed the "hope your day is" sentiment with white embossing powder using stamps from the Savanna Safari Stamps and cut along one edge of each piece close to the sentiment. I die-cut the "Sweet" sentiment from dark brown cardstock using the Hayley Uppercase and Hayley Lowercase Dies.

For my second A2 card and I adhered all the elements directly to the card front. First, I added 3 papers to the bottom. I die-cut 6" long strips of the brown and green papers from the Dots & Stripes Jewel Tones Paper using the ribbon die from the Ribbon & Lace Border Dies. I overlapped and adhered the green strip on the brown and adhered them 1 1/4" from the bottom edge. I trimmed them on the left and right edges of the card. I then cut a piece of red paper from the Joyful Holiday Paper 1" x 6", die-cut one edge using a die from the Ribbon & Lace Border Dies and adhered it even with the bottom edge of the card. I trimmed the excess from the left and right edges.

Next, I die-cut a piece of white cardstock using the Sweet Word Die and inked it with Spun Sugar and Kitsch Flamingo Distress inks. I adhered it above the brown paper and slightly off center. I die-cut the "friend" sentiment from white cardstock using the Loopy Letters Dies, inked the letters with Ground Espresso Distress ink and adhered them along the top of the red paper as shown. I heat embossed the "HELLO" sentiment from the Radiant Plumeria Stamps with white embossing powder on brown cardstock, fussy cut around it and adhered it above and to the left of the sweet sentiment.

To finish, I stamped the cupcakes and cherries from the Scrumptious Cupcakes Stamps and die-cut them using the coordinating dies. I just love the detail in these sweet stamps!

I hope you enjoyed and thanks for stopping by! For more inspiration, please visit my blog www.inkredibleadventures.com and you can also find me on Instagram as @cathy.chapdelaine.
