HAPPY BIRTHDAY WITH CANDY CANES DIES

June 29, 2022

So sorry that I didn't get this posted yesterday. After my video I needed some me time, so I went swimming. It was a beautiful hot day to hop in the pool and just enjoy the cool water, so that is what I did. So today I am trying to catch up on all the things I promised.


This card started out to be something different. I knew that I wanted to use the Candy Cane Dies in a different way. I like the way they create a background. We have so many great dies this year that can be used in a background. I didn't want to do Christmas yet. There are so many great stamp sets in our Annual Catalog that was just released a couple of months ago that I feel like I haven't finished playing with yet.


For this one I used the Candy Cane Dies that will be released July 1 in the new July - December Mini Catalog. Then I used the Happy Birthday greeting from Cottage Rose, which I just love! The flowers came from the new Wonderful World Bundle (Stamp set & Designer Series Paper), I fussy cut around the flower in the paper. I also used the 2022-23 In Color Glimmer Paper. I just love the products and how they came together.

Measurements:

  • Cut 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 Starry Sky/ Sweet Sorbet, score at 4 1/4
  • Cut 5 1/4 x 4 Adhesive Sheet, adhere to Basic White below before die cutting
  • Cut (2)  5 1/4 x 4 Basic White, one for inside and one for use on the front, cut with the die from Candy Cane Dies, cut a strip of Masking Paper to use along the edges to keep from stamping the greeting on the frame area. Stamp the greeting with Starry Sky/Sweet Sorbet across the White strips that remained after die cutting. Keep the strips that cut out, stamp one of them with the greeting and trim the end
  • Cut the largest circle in Starry Sky/ Sweet Sorbet using the Stylish Shapes Dies
  • Cut the Basic White circle using the largest  Layering Circle dies
  • Fussy cut the flower from the Designer Series Paper, adhere to the Basic White Die
  • Attach the greeting using Dimensionals
  • Add the Double Bow tied with the In Color Ribbon
  • Add the bling of your choice

My favorite part of my job is creating. It doesn't always come easy but this month's Paper Pumpkin kit contained beautiful Alcohol Ink papers. The papers were so beautiful and the kit included nine card bases which had the design on the front and back of the card. When cutting them apart you were able to create 18 card fronts. I started designing by cutting them apart and then went from there. Throughout the week I will post 3 cards each day for seven days that were all made with April 2025 Paper Pumpkin Inked Occasions

This is the final card in a series from the Impressions Abloom. If you have not see the others check my blog. This is the first one I created using Timid Tiger but for my Facebook Live I wanted to use the new In Colors.

All this week I will be posting cards created with products remaining from my recent event. This card was inspired by the card below that I created for that event. I had a focus on creating masculine cards and when I was done with the event I had a set of the undone cards remaining. I had received the New Impressions Abloom which is only available if you are a Demonstrator until May 1, 2025. After that date it will be available to anyone. I used the products that were in the packet to create this card. Of course I added a few extra things. I will give you all the instructions on the page including measurements and products used for both projects
