Notebook Die Focused Card with Isha

Hello everyone! Isha here today with a cute card featuring the new Notebook dies. You must have seen all the gorgeous inspiration by Mendi featuring the new release.

I started by creating the background by inking the gelli plate with distress oxide inks, and took the print onto a white card. Stamp the images from the Purrfect Birthday stamps to create a background. Adhere this panel to the card base.

Die-cut the notebook panel from the Notebook Photo Corners die from pink card and vellum, tear them from bottom. Adhere the vellum to the pink die-cut using 3d foam. Adhere to the card. Stamp the word "Happy Birthday" from the Big Bold Greetings onto black card using versamark ink, sprinkle WOW! opaque white embossing powder and heat set. Die-cut using the coordinating dies. 

Die-cut the tab using the Notebook Tabs dies. Sponge a bit of color to the edges. Stamp the sentiment from the Critters On The Go stamp set. Adhere to the card.

Thanks for stopping by and have a nice day!

Scrumptious Cupcakes Card with Bobbi

Hi Sunny friends! It’s Bobbi here with some yummy cupcakes using the new Scrumptious Cupcakes stamp set and coordinating dies by Sunny Studio Stamps. This set includes multiple stamp layers so you can achieve perfect results every time. Just line up the layers and stamp away! My 5″ X 7″ card includes five of these adorable cakes with different frosting tops and accessories.

To make this card, I stamped the cupcakes, three with chocolate cake and two with vanilla cake. I made three with blue liners and two with aqua. For the frosting, I used three shades of each color – orange, pink, red, green and lavender.  The set has three different frosting shapes. I also added candles and cherries on top to accessorize each one.

I attached each topper using a foam dot to make the tops stand out from the bottoms. I also stamped the “happy birthday” sentiment from the set in black on white cardstock and fussy cut the design. I glued on some confetti over the sentiment for extra color. It was cut from 1/8″ strips of cardstock. I used Pearl Pen in different colors to add dimensional sprinkles on top of each cupcake. I set them aside to dry. 

For the card base, I splattered random color all over the front using watercolor paint in coordinating colors. Once it was dry, I added 7″ long X 1″ tall strips of blue and green cardstock hand cut to create some party fringe. Each strip was attached to the bottom edge, overlapping the two. I also added 1/8″ strips of aqua and yellow (with faux white stitches added to the yellow strip) to the top of the fringe border for a finished look. More hand cut confetti pieces were added over the splattered paint background. I attached the cupcakes and the sentiment above and over the fringe to finish the card.

Sneak Peek: Introducing Special Day Stamps with Summer Release Video

Hello and welcome to the final day of our Sneak Peek Week!  In case you are just joining us, each day this week I have been showcasing projects using our newest Summer collection which is now available to purchase in our store. Before you run off to shop though, I hope you will join me for a closer look at one last new product that I'm super excited for!

I've also created a special video sharing the full summer release, as well as a closer look at each of the projects I made with it (you can watch it on our YouTube Channel HERE).

Card No. 1: I'd like to think I saved the best for last. Today I'm featuring one last new 4x6 stamp set called Special Day. This set includes two different adorable multi-layered cakes, numbered candles, cake toppers, and a fabulously versatile "Happy Birthday" greeting that I have fallen in love with!

For this card, I started by inking my A2-sized card panel with Salty Ocean Distress ink, fading it out towards the top of my panel, and splattering it with water to give my background a speckled appearance. I then added three of our new Crepe Paper Streamers along the top of my card which I cut out from white cardstock and colored with my Copic Markers to match my rainbow ombre cake. I added the "4" and "0" numbered candles to the top of my cake to celebrate my sister's 40th birthday. For my greeting, I used the oversized "happy birthday" phrase from our Big Bold Greetings Stamps and added the phrase "to the best" from our Teacher Appreciation Stamps and the word "sister" from both our Tea-riffic Stamps and Outback Critters Stamps.

Card No. 2: For this card featuring the Special Day Stamps I created a wedding card. I love how these cute cakes can be used for so many different occasions, including weddings, anniversaries and holidays like Valentine's Day! I started by adhering a pink quilted heart print to my card base using a patterned paper from our Flirty Flowers Paper pack and then added the Frilly Frames Eyelet Lace scalloped mat over the top. 

Detail View: The cake and die did most of the heavy lifting for me so I was able to keep the rest of my card fairly simple, just cutting a sentiment strip using the stitched edge dies from our Ribbon & Lace Border Dies and heat embossing my "best wishes" sentiment using our Everyday Greetings Stamps with Hero Arts Brass Embossing Powder.

Card No. 3: Next up, I have an anniversary card pairing the heart three-tier cake & cake topper from our new Special Day Stamps. I started by repeatedly cutting our loopy heart border from teal cardstock using our Heartstring Border Dies which I mounted onto a solid sheet of cardstock in the same color for a textured, tone-on-tone look that almost gives the appearance of being embossed. I then mounted my cake pieces using foam tape and added a curved banner overhead from our Banner Basics Stamps and heat embossed by anniversary sentiment using a greeting from our Happy Thoughts Stamps. It was feeling like missing a little something so I completed my card by adding the scalloped eyelet lace border from our Ribbon & Lace Border Dies.

Card No. 4: For this card using the floral cake from the Special Day Stamps, I colored my cake a mint green color with pink peonies, adding both the flower to the top, along with the set of 5 birthday candles. I heat-embossed my greeting from the stamp set onto a piece of coordinating mint cardstock, inking up the bottom portion to match my coloring and shading for the cake and then die-cutting the ends with our Fishtail Banner Dies. For my tone-on-tone pink background, I die-cut a scalloped mat, combining the pieces from our Frilly Frames Polka-dot Dies and our Frilly Frames Lattice Dies. I then framed my cake using our Scalloped Oval Mat 2 Dies.

Card No. 5: For this card, I colored my heart cake from the Special Day Stamps with chocolate frosting and hot pink accents using Copic Markers. I added the birthday candles to the top and inked behind them using a little Distress Ink to give the appearance of them glowing. I kept the rest of my card very simple. Before adhering my cake to my card panel, I cut out the phrase "you take the cake" using our Chloe Alphabet Dies and filled the negative space hind the letters using a hot pink dotted print from our Polka-Dot Parade Paper pack. Lastly, I added a thin strip of pink striped paper from our Striped Silly Paper pack along the bottom of my card.

Card No. 6: For my last card of the day I combined the numbered birthday candles from the Special Day Stamps with our layered Scrumptious Cupcakes Stamps, stacking a number of frostings in different colors. I wanted my background to match my cupcake so I ended up inking up by background by blending PinkFresh Studio Dye Inks to match. I sometimes forget that I can blend any dye inks to create inky backgrounds and I love the way these inks blended together--It really expands my options in terms of color palettes and they created a gorgeous pastel rainbow! I added a white stitched panel to the center of my card to frame my tall cupcake using our Slimline Scalloped Frame Dies and then die-cut 6 Crepe Paper Streamers from white cardstock and inked them up to match the background.

With each new collection, we always have a new free mini die we include automatically with orders placed in our online store. For this release we have a fun mini hibiscus die!

When shopping we have two different ongoing promotions you can choose from to be entered at checkout depending on which offer is better for you (limit one discount code per order).

That wraps up today's sneak peeks. I'm so happy you spent some time with me today. I read all your comments and they mean so much!  I'd love to give a $50 gift code to one lucky winner using the Rafflecopter below.
