Cupcake Cards

Hi everyone! I hope you are doing well. I am trying to keep busy. I recently purchased this really fun birthday stencil and Cupcake Stamp and Die Set from Hero Arts and Since I belong to a FB card group I needed to get my September Birthday cards made and mailed out.

I love Cupcakes? and Cupcake cards. Don’t you? I couldn’t resist this stamp and die set called Color Layering Cupcake. I first used the Hero Arts Stencil called Streamer onto Neenah Solar white 80lb. cardstock. I cut my sheet of cardstock in four panels. I placed each panel down and placed my stencil over it. I had fun using different color combinations using Catherine Pooler bundle dye inks.

After my backgrounds, I used the Cupcake layering stamp and die set in colored inks to match my backgrounds. I did stamp the cupcake wrapper in black to try it out, that has a cool look to it too. The layering was so much fun. On some I used a brown ink for the cake of the cupcake to show and some for it not to show. I would cut them out with the coordinating die set after. I did have two extra cupcakes and cherries so I made those with a with background.

my backgrounds were cut out using a Diagonal Stitched Rectangle die from Pinkfresh Studio. I also used a Circle die to match. I stamped the ones with a stenciled background with the sentiment on the circle with a curved look using my Mist Stamping Platform. On the other two circle diecuts I stamped the sentiment onto the panel and added some sprinkles on one for fun. I glued and used foam to back some of my panels especially the ones with polka dot ribbon. I like the ribbon and I always forget to use it. I decided just to add some sprinkles on some cards. I chose for no embellishments on these cards. All my panels were added to a A2 card base. I hope you like my Birthday Cupcake cards. I kinda want to make more to have a bunch for my stash.

A Colorful Life Designs August 2021 Release

Hi everyone! I hope you are doing well. I have Birthday card today using fabulous Stencils from A Colorful Life Designs August Release. In this card project I used the New Grass Edger 1 Stencil and the Cloud Edger Stencil that is from a previous Release. Use my code VonFan10 for 10% off your purchase.

I had so much fun using this stencil. I used both the Negative and Positive Stencils of the Grass edger 1 Stencil. I used Twisted Citron Distress Oxide Ink on Neenah Solar white 80 lb. cardstock using my Blending Buddy Brush. Some areas I would use with a heavier hand, I like the contrast. I then used the Cloud edger with Catherine Pooler’s Cove Blue dye ink for my sky with a light handed ink blending. When I was done ink blending I cut my background out with a stitched A2 rectangle die.

How fun are these cute kids from Lawn Fawn’s Tiny Birthday Friends? I stamped them on Neenah Solar white 80lb. cardstock with Oreo ink. I colored them in with my Copic markers and then cut them out with the Tiny Birthday Friends coordinating dies. I added my ink blended background to a A2 card base. I glued my images to my panel and then stamped a sentiment with Oreo ink onto a banner diecut. The sentiment is from Lawn Fawn. A freebie from a previous purchase. So cute and fun I think! Lastly, I added some Pops Of Color Ocean Waves Drops. I hope you like it and don’t forget to use my code to save 10% off your purchase.

Level Up Birthday Card!

Hi everyone! I have a Special Birthday Card to share with you and it’s another light up card using EZ Lights from Pear Blossom Press.

Today is my Son’s Birthday he is 7. He has been so excited counting down everyday. And he should right?? He has been so excited with my light up cards that I thought I am going to make him one. So I used MFT’s Game Controller Die-Namics. It’s a great die and I have a few gamers in my family. I copic colored some Neenah Solar White cardstock for the buttons on the controller before running the dies through my Spellbinders Platinum Machine. I used heavy weight black cardstock for the controller and diecut it two times for dimension.

I then stamped and heat embossed this cute boy image from The Greeting Farm’s Gamer Couple. I had used the girl previously for my daughter so I was happy to used this boy for my son. I copic colored him and matched his clothes to my sons clothes. I then fussy cut him out. I made the background stamping the small icon images from the stamp set with Lawn Fawn Jet Black ink using my Misti. I colored those images with copic markers too. I added my EZ Lights to the back of my background panel. I used a small hole puncher to have my lights show through. I use scotch tape to secure my wires into place. I then added Clear Foam Tape 5MM to the ends so that my power button would not be noticeable at all. I then cut my background to layer on a 4.25 x 5.5 black cardstock and then glued them to my A2 card base. The boy and controller were glued with liquid glue.

I stamped and heat embossed the sentiment from the same Gamer Couple stamp set onto Pear Blossom Press’s Black sentiment cardstock with Versamark and WOW Bright White Opaque embossing powder. I cut them down with my paper trimmer. The “Press Here” sentiment is from MFT Interactve Labels that I heat embossed and cut out with a circle die from Waffle Flower Crafts. I hope you like my card, it was a lot of fun to make and I know my son will love it!!

Cow Are You?

Hello everyone! I have a cute Slimline card to share with you today using a Digi Stamp from Kinda Cute By Patricia. It’s also a Birthday card. I am always in need of Birthday cards. Birthday cards might be my favorite to make!

Aren’t these cows Udderly Adorable? hehe. I thought how cute to make a Birthday card with these cows. This DIgi stamp is called Cow. I first printed them onto Georgia Pacific 110lb cardstock. I colored them in with my Altenew Artist Markers. I then fussy cut them out. You get three different cows but I just chose to color up two for this slimline card design.

I made my background using white cardstock and I first used the Big Balloon Stencil from MFT with Black Soot Distress Oxide ink and a Cotton Tail Blending Brush. I then used a Cloud Stencil from MFT called Mini Cloud Edges with Peacock Feathers Distress Oxide ink. I inked the Balloon string using the Balloon stencil and Black Soot Distress Oxide ink. I then used the Slimline Grassy Edges Stencil from MFT with Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide ink. I very carefully used the balloon stencil and a cow print stencil also MFT which I believe is now retired with Gina K Designs White Pigment ink with a small blender brush. I had to do it a couple of times as it look a little chalky.

I used a Slimline Die set from Gina Marie Designs to cut my panel out. I added my cows popping one up with foam tape. I then stamped a sentiment using three sentiment stamps from Sunny Studio Stamps called Miss Moo that I stamped with Versafine Clair Nocturne ink. I cut it out with my paper trimmer and then used my T-Square Ruler to place my sentiment straight with foam tape. My panel was then added to a black Slimline card base. I then added white gel accents with my white Signo pen and sequins. Can you believe I used four stencils for my card today? I hope you enjoyed my card, it was fun to make. Have a Great Crafty Day!

Happy Birthday Darling!

Hi my friends! I hope your doing great on this Tuesday! I have a Birthday card to share today using a new to me company! Colorado Craft Company.

So I used this stamp set called Lovely Legs Valentine Stamp from Colorado Craft Company. Since I didn’t use it for Valentine’s Day it has these Birthday sentiments. So that is what I did. I stamped this image onto Taylored Expressions Watercolor cardstock with Lawn Fawn Jet Black ink. I then colored the image in with Prima Pastel watercolors and Prima Complexion watercolor paints and my black velvet brush and water. I painted the background also and flickered paint splatters with white Copic Paint and a silverish Hydracolour paint.

I cut out my watercolor panel out with a die from My Creative Time and placed my panel in my Misti to stamp and heat emboss the sentiment with Versafine black ink and Hero Arts Clear embossing powder. I then cut out some colored cardstock to match using a A2 stitched rectangle. I glued my panel to my colored cardstock and then to my A2 card base. Lastly, I added some sequins to match. I hope you like my Birthday card, it was so much fun to make. I really like this company so you may see another card from me using another stamp set. Thank you for stopping by!
