Life’s too short TO SAY NO TO cake from Stampin’ Up Amazing Life

What type of card do you send most?  For me it is either Thank you cards or Birthday cards.  Last Saturday everyone made at least 8 birthday cards and some changed the sentiments on other cards to Happy Birthday.  You just can’t have enough birthday cards!  Amazing Life is a perfect stamp set for Birthdays, Good Luck cards and just celebrating!  You might have spotted the Good Luck sentiment on the Dandelion Wishes card.

    

  1. Cut a piece of Petal Pink 13.8 cm by 9.5 cm .
  2. Cut a piece of Whisper White 13.3 cm by 9 cm.
  3. Cut a 1” strip of Pool Party – sorry to switch to imperial measurements! It is for the punch.  Punch a banner that has a final length of 1 ½”.
  4. For the patterned paper banner you have at least two different ways to do it.
    1. Cut a 1” strip and use the banner punch. Then use your scissors to trim it down on each side of the banner.
    2. Cut a ¾” strip and use the punch upside down to get an even banner.

Stamping

  1. On the Whisper White rectangle stamp the sentiment in Memento ink.
  2. In Memento ink stamp the middle cake.
  3. Mask the cake using a post-it note cut to size
  4. Stamp the two outer cakes.

Colouring

  1. Colour the “CAKE” word with Dark Pool Party Blend.
  2. Colour the middle cake with the Light and Dark Pool Party Blends, the Light and Dark Petal Pink blends to create an ombre effect.
  3. The candle is coloured with Light Soft Suede and the flame with the Dark Daffodil Delight blend.

Assembling the card

  1. Layer the stamped piece onto the Petal Pink mount.  Use dimensionals to adhere to the card front.
  2. Layer the patterned paper banner to the Pool Party banner. Stick to the card front.
  3. Add a baker’s twine bow with a glue dot.
  4. Sprinkle sequins to finish the card.
