Bubble Bath Cake Celebrations


 Hello stamping friends, I made tonight's card for our team InstaHop with the Art With Heart Team.

Every week we have been featuring one of the Stampin' Up! colours Tonight we are featuring Bubble Bath, a lovely soft pink.

I have used the Cake Celebrations Bundle, which is currently on the Last Chance List. 

This card is called a Fancy Fold called a Swing Card


The cake is stamped in Bubble Bath ink and the stand in Smoky Slate. The leaves and the background circle are Pretty Peacock card stock. The tiny flowers are Bubble Bath and Berry Burst that have been painted with a Wink of Stella pen.


For the background piece I stamped a piece of Basic White card stock with the Painted Stripes stamp in Bubble Bath ink. The DSP on the front of the card is from the Beautiful Bokeh Pack.


The greeting panel on the front is Bubble Bath, with the greeting stamped in Pretty Peacock ink. The greeting on the inside is stamped in Berry Burst.


I cut the circles on the flip panel with my favourite dies, Stylish Shapes. The front greeting is cut from a die in the Unbounded Love Dies.

We will be back next week with projects featuring Cajun Craze.

Blackberry Bliss Mixed Florals

 The card I am sharing with you today was used for the Art With Heart Team InstaHop a couple of weeks ago. Unfortunately my computer was misbehaving at the time, hence the delay in posting it.

For this card I stamped the tulip image from the Mixed Florals Bundle in Versamark on Fluid 100 Water Colour Paper and heat embossed in Gold Embossing powder. I coloured with a Water Painter and inks in Blackberry Bliss, Old Olive and Flirty Flamingo.


I shaded the piece of background paper from Regal Distressed Specialty DSP with a Blending Brush and Blackberry Bliss ink.

The greeting and banner is from the Mixed Labels Bundle, and was stamped on Blackberry Bliss card stock.

Thanks for visiting,

Blueberry Bushel Trusty Tools InstaHop

 Hi stamping friends,  I joined my Art With Heart team mates in an Instagram Hop featuring Blueberry Bushel projects. We have been hopping through all of the Stampin’ Up! Colours in alphabetical order.



For today’s card I have used the Trusty Tools Bundle. I stamped the tools in Memento ink and coloured with Blueberry Bushel ink and Blends Markers.


I used a piece of Country Woods DSP for the peg board. I added some retired Brushed Metallic dots as hangers for the tools.
