Birthday Bright with Playful Palette Card

I really can say I am not a FAN of he Playful Palette Paper Stack. I bought it thinking it would grow on me and some of the pieces have but more multicoloured swirly ones haven't so challenged myself to use them and I do like the end result. I kept it simple by stamping the sentiment from Birthday Bright stamp set in Archival Black Ink on Vellum. I added some Emanel Shapes in the co ordinating colours - Emerald Envy, Blushing Bride and Sweet Sugarplum. I adhered the vellum by folding up some Glue dots by adhering them behind the enamel shapes. To finish the card  I added some of the co ordinating Ruched Ribbon to finish the card.

Brushwork Alphabet and Baby Bear with Playful Palette Card

I was reminded that today its a super cute one year olds birthday so I just had to whip her up a cute card and I also had to personalise it just for her with the Brushwork Alphabet.

I stared by choosing my colour scheme and paper from the Playful Palette 6x6 Paper Stack. Next I stamped the Baby Bear teddy in Peekaboo Peach, Basic Grey Archival and Basic Black Archival inks on Very Vanilla card stock and matted it on Basic Black card stock. Next I cut a strip of the patterned paper and matted it into a piece of Sweet Sugarplum card stock to the length of the card. I used this piece to work out where to stamp the name and stamped it using the brushwork Alphabet in Sweet Sugarplum ink onto a Blushing Bride card base. I wrapped and tied a bow using the Peekaboo Peach Ruched Ribbon the patterned paper piece and attached it under the stamped name with Fast Fuse adhesive and then paced the Baby Bear piece over it with Stampin' Dimensionals. I cut a number one out from the Large Number Framelits with Silver Glimmer Paper and attached it using Foam Adhesive Strips beside the bear. As a finishing touch added a few 2016-2018 In Colour Enamel Shapes to the card and bear.

Baby Bear, Gorgeous Grunge with Playful Palette Paper Card

I really just adore this Baby Bear Stamp. It was a stamp set I would not normally purchase but I won it as part of our OnStage demonstrator event in April and I am so glad I did and he is just too adorable. I love how realistic he is.

I started by stamping the bear from the Baby Bear stamp set onto Whisper White card stock. After much experimenting I have found it best to stamp the bear images in the order 2, 1, 3. This helped me to line up the arm holes as I stamped the layers which resulted in almost perfectly stamped bear (we can't all per perfect. Its a handmade card!). The colours I have used for the bear are stamped of Smoky Slate ink for layer 1, Smokey Slate ink Layer 2 and Archival Basic Grey ink for Layer 3. I matted this stamped piece onto a piece of Peekaboo Peach. Next I stamped a Thick Whisper White card base with the smallest splatters stamp for the Gorgeous Grunge stamp set in Peekaboo Peach, Emerald Envy and Sweet Sugarplum inks. I added a strip of splattered patterned paper from the Playful Palette Paper Stack. At this point i wanted to add a sentiment and did so from Baby Bear stamp set in Peekaboo Peach and Sweet Sugarplum Ink. If I was too make the card again I would not use the Peekaboo Peach ink as it didn't show up as well. As a finishing touch I tied some Sweet Sugarplum Ruched Ribbon around the card and attached the bear stamped piece with Stampin' Dimensionals.
