Colorful Birthday

 

Roxie here and I had fun creating this happy card, I like the open letters of the sentiment so it can be colored in.

The cupcake paper is a solid image on the clear stamp so to get an outline I inked up the top of the image with an ink pad and used a wet wipe to remove the unwanted ink but also took advantage of the ink to use as a shadow.  I used a marker to outline the solid image so I could color it in.

The balloons, cupcake and sentiment are popped up with foam tape.

On the Hunt- Masculine Birthday

We are the most spoiled DT out there I think!  We get to play with lots of goodies at Sweet Stamps- the latest- The Globecraft Piccalo Accents and Enamel Embossing Powders.

 The texture from the Enamel EP's is so awesome- and I love the Copper accents in the Copper color- hope you can see that in the picture on the letters and the base of the deer. The top of the deer is embossed with Brownstone EP. This is one of the pieces from the On the Hunt Accents set. You can see the full set HERE. I think I know a couple of guys that would enjoy this card : )

We hope yo see you join us for the Masculine Birthday Challenge this week.

Thanks for stopping by!

Dresden Rose Happy Birthday

Hi everyone! It's Leslie, guest designing for SweetStamps during the month of August, and I'm back with my inspiration project for the SweetStamps Birthday Challenge! Birthdays are so much fun to celebrate with awesome handmade cards, so come play with us! This is the last SweetStamps challenge in August which means this is my last guest design post. I want to thank Stacey, Kendra and team once again for this amazing opportunity! I've thoroughly enjoyed myself!

This is my first parchment crafting project and I can't tell you how much I enjoyed creating this card! I used the beautiful-beyond-words SweetStamps Dresden Rose Circle stamp, embossed with fine detail white embossing powder, colored on the back side, cut with 4-split perforating tool and mounted on three gorgeous die cuts. The inside sentiment is SweetStamps Happy Birthday stamped in Memento Bamboo Leaves ink. For full details, please see my full blog post at Love To Scrap!

Thanks so much for stopping by today - I hope you're inspired to create a pretty project for the SweetStamps Birthday challenge! Have an awesome day!
Hugs,
Leslie
