Stampin' Up! Birthday Blast Stamp set

  • Celebrate You with Birthday Blast
  • Paper Pumpkin triple win
  • March 26 - Decorated Card Tin Class

Stampin' Up! Birthday Blast with Stars die

I'm playing with the Birthday Blast stamp set today.  What a blast!  This set holds so much potential.  I used this with Gold Embossing powder and also used the Star Blast Edgelit Dies to cut some stars to pop up on this card.    


     





While this is a great set for Birthday's, it is also a perfect set to use to recognize a friend or family member or fellow demonstrator.  I used Night of Navy to compliment the Gold embossing.  For a DSP, I used a sheet from the Scene Serene set with large Delightful Dijon dots.





Recipe:

Stamp: Birthday Blast
Ink:  Versamark 
Paper: Whisper White, Night of Navy, Serene Scene Designer Paper Pack (6 X 6), Gold Foil (stars)
Accessories:  Star Blast Edgelit Dies, Gold Embossing Powder, Embossing Buddy, Heat Tool, Big Shot, Big Shot Platform, Big Shot Cutting Pads, Big Shot Platform, Precisions Base Plate, Die Brush, Stampin' Scrub, Stampin' Mist, Multipurpose Liquid Glue, Dimensionals




Price: $110.00

      Cool Treats Sundae

      • Cool Treats Sundae
      • March 26 - Decorated Card Tin Class
      • Sale-A-Bration gifts selling out fast

      Stampin' Up! Sweet Cool Treats

      I'm still on my Cool Treat kick, and I made another card today.  I used some of the coordinating Tasty Treats Specialty Designer Series Paper.  Additionally I found a Peekaboo Peach paper in the free Sale-A-Bration, Carried Away Designer Series Papers that complimented our card beautifully.  

           





      I stayed with the Peekaboo Peach and Pool Party combination for background papers and then used Watermelon Wonder, Pear Pizazz and Pool Party to make the ice cream scoops in the Sunday.  I cut the components for the sundae with the Frozen Treats Framelits Dies.  The sentiment is from the Cool Treats set and the banner is cut using the Mini Treat Bag Thinlit set.







        
      I used Crumb Cake for the base card, which matches the DSP used for the Sundae dish.  I added the dish and scoops on a Stitched Shape oval.  One tip to putting together all of these small items easily is to punch a heart shape and build the layers on top of the heart shape, and then the single element mounts easily.  The little bow is make from the 3/8" Peekaboo Peach Rached Ribbon.
        
           
      Cards from the past three posts using Cool Treats stamp set


      Here is a photo of the three cards made over the past 3 days -- all using the Cool Treats and matching Frozen Treats Framelits Dies.       



      Recipe:

      Stamp:  Cool Treats
      Ink:  Peekaboo Peach, Calypso Coral, Sahara Sand, Soft Suede, 
      Paper: Peekaboo Peach, Basic Black, Whisper White, Crumb Cake
      Accessories:  3/8" Peekaboo Peach Rached Ribbonn, Frozen Treats Framelit Dies, Mini Treat Bag Thinlit, Big Shot, Big Shot Platform, Big Shot Cutting Pads, Big Shot Platform, Stampin' Scrub, Stampin' Mist, Multipurpose Liquid Glue, Dimensionals

        Sweet, Cool Treats

        • Sweet Cool Treats
        • Birthday, Cool Treats and Decorated Card Tin Class - March 26
        • Sale-A-Bration gifts end March 31

        Stampin' Up! Sweet Cool Treats

        I'm falling in love with the Cool Treats set.  I tried another card today with this set and the coordinating Tasty Treats Specialty Designer Series Paper, and I think it turned out to be just Sweet!

             




        I liked the color combinations I started using yesterday, so I continued with the Peekaboo Peach and Calypso Coral combination for the two-step stamping technique on this card.  The sentiment is from the Cool Treats set.







          
        I used Peekaboo Peach for the basecard as well.  I added the cone on a Stitched Shape oval with a scalloped matt in Peekaboo Peach.  The little bow uses the 3/8" Peekaboo Peach Rached Ribbon, and the Pumpkin Pie enamels added interest to the card.
          
             



        Here is a photos of yesterday's card and today's card together.  You can use Designer Series paper or stamped images.  Both create the cutest cards!      





        Recipe:

        Stamp:  Cool Treats
        Ink:  Peekaboo Peach, Calypso Coral, Sahara Sand, Soft Suede, Basic Black,
        Paper: Peekaboo Peach, Basic Black, Whisper White
