Oh! Cupcakes

Here's the fourth blog post about Stamp Camp.  I hope you are enjoying checking out some of the projects that we made.

When I was demonstrating how to make a card using the digital owl punch, I mentioned that the cupcake punch made a great card too.  Jayne was pretty excited about that as her upcoming daughter's birthday party had a cupcake theme and she needed to make a few invitations.  Problem solved!  She chose the papers, I designed the card, cut out the pieces with my Silhouette Cameo and she assembled them to produce this very cute invitation.  The top of the cupcake lifts upwards and a little tag with the party details is popped into the base of the cupcake.


It took Jayne away from her scrapbooking pages until all 6 were complete.  I'm sure it was worth the sacrifice as I heard they were a big hit with her daughter.  Now Jayne has a large item on her wish list as well as lots of digital downloads for MDS.

The Smile Says it All!

Punch Bunch Easel Cards

Punch Bunch Easel Cards I was thrilled to be asked back to be a Guest Designer for the Oh My Word !! Edition of UStamp with Dawn and Friends . My tutorial was featured on-line today so I am excited to be able to release some photos of the cards that I created especially for this round. If you know me well enough, you'll know that I love to make easel cards, especially scallop circle ones. When I was asked to think of a project, I started to think of other ways I could make easel cards using the Big Shot Dies that I owned. My mind is still 'ticking' with other possibilities but they will have to wait for another day! Here's what I came up with - #1 - Scallop Square Easel Card #2 - Scallop Circle Easel Card For my blog tutorial please visit - http://addinktivedesigns.blogspot.com/2010/10/scallop-circle-easel-card-tutorial.html #3 - Top Note (Horizontal) Easel Card/Photo Frame #4 - Beautiful Butterflies Easel Card For my blog tutorial please visit - http://addinkt...

Just Add Ink Challenge # 25

Image
Too Cute to Handle There's a colour challenge on this week at Just Add Ink . I found the colour combo a little tricky and then re-read my notebook to discover that it was one of my suggestions! Ooops! No-one to blame but myself! This week's Colour Combo The card evolved from me wanting to use the cute Rose Red coloured Designer Hardware from the 'Hooray' collection (Autumn/Winter Mini Catalogue) as a starting point! The sentiment then led me to use the little tea cup stamp called, 'Share a Cup'. It's one of my favourite stamps and so versatile! ... and so the design 'blossomed' from there. The little flowers coming from the cup are attached to small lengths of florist wire. Project Recipe: Stamp Sets: One of a Kind, Share a Cup Ink: Rose Red, Soft Suede, Elegant Eggplant Cardstock: RR, SS, EE and Very Vanilla Accessories: 1/2" SS Polka-Dot Grosgrain Ribbon, Sizzlits Little Leaves Die, 5-Petal Flower and Boho Blossoms Punches, ...

Freshly Made Spice Cake

Here's a card I made especially for the latest challenge at Freshly Made Sketches - Freshly Made Spice Cake I hope the leaf flourish is okay for the 'square' section of the sketch as I did not want to cover up the woven panel. Here's the sketch - It's been so nice to take some time out to craft before the rush to write end of year reports, go to presentations nights, son's graduation, organise the finer details for daughter's leaver's dinner, all of which are fast approaching! So I'm crafting while I still have a small window of opportunity. Project Recipe: Stamps: Spiced Paisley (SU December Release), It's Your Day Ink: Chocolate Chip, More Mustard Card Stock: Very Vanilla, More Mustard, Pear Pizzazz Accessories: Blossom Party Die, Spice Cake DSP (SU December Release), 1/2" Circle Punch, Dimensionals, Victoria Crochet Trim, Pool Party Ruffled Ribbon, Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border Punch, Leaf Flourish Die (Marieanne Creatables) and ...
