Stampin' Pink Rose

Meet Bohemian and It’s Bright Color Is Here

Pamela May 28, 2015 May 29, 2015Birthday

With all the gloomy, rainy days we had over Memorial Day, this Stampin’ Up! paper was a breath of fresh air. It is brand NEW Stampin’ Up! paper in the NEW CATALOG. It is colorful, but you can tone it down by using Blackberry Bliss or brighten it up by using Tempting Turquoise.

The stamps I chose were Cupcake Party and Remembering Your Birthday. The later was used for the greeting. This card has no sentiment because of the style. Let us get started and learn how to make this unique card.

Cut Blackberry Bliss cardstock 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ and fold at 4 1/4″ (base)

2. On one side of folded cardstock you will need to cut down 1 1/4″ on the fold and across so there is a flap. This will leave 1 1/4″ open so the white cardstock will show once adhered. See picture.

3. Using the 1 3/4″ punch, punch a half circle out of the Blackberry Bliss cardstock.

4. You will need to pencil mark the placement of the cupcake.

5. Cut Whisper White cardstock 4″ x 5″ (inside of card)

6. Stamp the cupcake with the Stampin’ Up! Cupcake Party in Delightful Dijon for the top and for the base use your Blackberry Bliss and a black maker to color it. The circles are done in Blackberry Bliss.

7. Add the candle which is colored with marker in Blackberry Bliss and Delightful Dijon for the flame.

8. Stamp the Happy Birthday with the Delightful Dijon on the left.

9. Adhere to the Blackberry Bliss card (base).

10. Add two banners on the flap part of the Blackberry Bliss. I used the NEW Bohemian Designer Series paper. The banners measure 1 1/4″ x 3 1/4″ in the patterned paper and 1″ x 3″. Adhere. Note the pattern paper is on the bottom and the dot paper is on top.

I trust everyone had a great Memorial Day. Between the rain I was able to attend a baseball game and work in the yard. On Sunday and Monday with the rain, I was able to get some cards done and catch up on Social Media.

You can contact me directly or order on your own at http://www.stampinup.net/esuite/home/pinkrose I am here to help you enjoy the world of Stampin’ Up!

Here is one of the cards I created over the weekend. It is from the new 2015-2016 Annual Catalog. The Stampin’ Up stamp is called Best Thoughts. I feel this is a very versatile stamp and can be used for multiple occasions. The flower will brighten someone’s day by showing you care. I chose to make it understated by using black and a touch of marine blue paper which was embossed. To create this card:

1) Cut Whisper White cardstock 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ and fold at 4 1/4″ (base)

2) Cut black cardstock 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2 and adhere to white base which you have stamped the flower randomly on the white cardstock. I used a black theme. You decide the color.

3) Cut Marine Mist cardstock to 3 1/2″ x 4 1/2″ and emboss with Stampin’ Up! Spring Flowers Textured Impressions Embossing Folder (Occasions Catalog)

4) Cut White cardstock 3 2/8″ x 4 2/8″ and stamp with the Best Thoughts stamp and add your greeting

5) Adhere to Marine Mist paper and adhere to card

6) Adhere the smaller white cardstock you have stamped with the flower

Note: On this card I chose the theme of black and used black ink. The Gifts of Kindness I used for the Thank You greeting.
