Crumb Cake: Slimline Milestone Birthday Pop Up card

Welcome to the Colour Creations Instahop. You can follow us on Instagram starting  @craftwithkate. Each week we will showcase the Stampin’ Up! colours in alphabetical order.

Week 17 – Crumb Cake

This handmade slimline card features the Party Alphabet dies and some of the Metallic Textures Rub-Ons.

I love using the colour combination of Crumb Cake with the bold Secret Sea. Those Metallic Rub-Ons are so easy to use by gently rubbing with your finger and they are super shiny.

The letters are cut twice in both colours and offset to mimic a shadow. I repeated the same process when stamping the sentiment [Layered Thoughts] on the inside. The Alphabet A La Mode dies were used to create the milestone birthday, and these are placed on the pop-up arch feature.

The mechanism is just a narrow strip of cardstock scored at 2cm intervals to create a box shape, then adhered into the centre scoreline of the card. The arches are then adhered to the mechanism.

This card fits into a DL business sized envelope.

Thanks for dropping by. I hope you join me next Wednesday for Crushed Curry inspiration.

2023 September - December Mini Catalogue cover.

Today’s card was created for my nephew who turned 9 a couple of days ago! I haven’t inked up my Reach for the Stars stamp set yet, so I thought this was the perfect one for Mitchy. Now you my be wondering what on earth is she thinking, but stay with me.

I covered my Thick White card base with a piece of the coordinating Stargazing Designer Series Paper (DSP). Then I cut out a green planet from the ‘reverse side’ of one of the papers and the rings are diecut from the Holographic Trio Specialty DSP. These are glued to the card. My astronaut is stamped in Crumb Cake and die cut. They are popped up on dimensionals. The silver stars are diecut from Silver Foil. The sentiment is stamped in Memento Black ink using the Reach for the Stars and Alphabest stamp sets.  I love a personalised card!

The sentiment on the inside is from the Phrases for All stamp set and uses Lemon Lime Twist ink. The rocket is stamped in Crumb Cake and diecut, as are the flames, which were diecut in White and coloured using the Stampin’ Blends Combo Markers; Lemon Lolly & Pumpkin Pie.

Happy Forest Friends card

2022-23 CCBH Logo

Each week some of the Art With Heart team are joining  the Colour Creations Blog Hop to bring you creative inspiration showcasing our range of 50+ gorgeous Stampin’ Up! colours in alphabetical order.

Week 15 – Crumb Cake

Tonight we focus on the colour, Crumb Cake, a lovely neutral tone that goes with every colour in the Stampin’ Up! range.

I adore this Happy Forest Friends Designer Series Paper, and although it doesn’t have Crumb Cake in it, I felt that it worked well with the bear and trees. My card base is Crumb Cake with a layer of So Saffron card, then another Crumb Cake layer embossed with the Stitched Greenery die.

The patterned paper is cut using the Deckled Rectangles die and layered onto So Saffron card. I trimmed a piece of the Natural 1/2″ Woven Ribbon and added it with glue dots across the card. The top panel is added with dimensionals. I die cut three acorns from Crumb Cake card and glued them to the trees. The sentiment (Happier Than Happy Bundle) is stamped onto So Saffron card and die cut with this cute little banner and added with dimensionals. A Linen Thread bow is added with a glue dot.

I made this card for my youngest daughter’s birthday this Friday – welcoming her TEENAGE-HOOD! Yikes, when did that happen?!!! This suite was the Number 1 item she added to our ‘must have’ list when we first browsed through the Annual catalogue together, so it was appropriate I used it for her 13th birthday card!

Thanks for dropping by. I hope you can join me next week for inspiration using Crushed Curry.

Butterflies, feminine, Handmade Cards

Subtle Floral Wings

Dear Crafters,

Today we celebrate the Queen’s Birthday with a long weekend here in Melbourne!

What are you doing today?

I am happily going to spend the day at home crafting with my girls, but first I want to share a cute card created with the Floral Wings Stamp Set.

Floral Wings Stampin' Up!

Here I have used Crumb Cake, Soft Suede and Blushing Bride. I just love these colours together and it really has a vintagy feminine feel to it.

This is a two step stamp set, but it is photopolymer, so very easy to line up the images.

Floral Wings Stampin' Up!

I even added some pearls to the centre, cute hey?!

Don’t forget to decorate the inside of your card too, this is just so beautiful.
