Weekly Inspiration, Sprinkles of Life

      I realised that I hadn't made one of the more popular images using the stamp set, so here it is. 

I would never be able to go out and order that many scoops of ice cream but it is so nice to dream!

The ice cream was made using the cloud image, stamped and punched using the Tree Builder punch. The cone was stamped onto So Saffron using So Saffron ink. 

The sprinkles were added using the stamp, Tempting Turquoise, Melon Mambo and So Saffron ink pads.

The Dsp is from It's My Party and the patterns I chose remind me of the images 

I've seen of a 1950's cafe. Even down to adding half of a doily as a napkin.  

The handle of the spoon is made with a small strip of a Silver Foil Sheet.

Fun to do and I hope you've got some ideas and inspiration for other projects.

We would both love to see some of your ideas following on from our projects. 

Cary will be back next week, so please pop in to see what amazing things she has designed.

Thank you, 

Gill

  

Weekly Inspiration

Today's Inspiration is using the Party With Cake, Stampin' Up! range.

The range or family includes Designer Series Paper (DSP), 2 Stamp Sets, Framelets, Embossing Folder, Party Punch Pack, Washi Tape, Enamel Dots and even co-ordinating Baker's Twine.

IT IS BRILLIANT!

For this card, I used the DSP and Framelets.  

I could have gone on and used more 

but enough is enough. 

The framelets are the PARTY POP-UP thinlets dies and they do just that. 

It has another die too which is a cake and candles but the cake reads HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

It is my birthday today and Cary and I went to our team training yesterday. 

We always make swaps to give to others in our team, so I thought that I would make myself this pretty birthday card. 

Well I think it's pretty, I hope you do.

I also used Happy Hearts embossing folder and the Confetti Heart Border Punch which I used some of the hearts from previous projects to fill in with silver Glimmer Paper.

We crafter's NEVER throw things away, do we?

 I hope you like today's project and that it can give you some inspiration.

Happy Crafting.

The Sky's The Limit

FREE Stamp set during SALEABRATION

This set is only available until 16th February

I  said that I could make a feminine card using this set! I wasn't sure at first seeing the set but I'm really pleased with it. I hope you like it. Do you think it worked?

This time it was mainly cardstock, which was die cut with the circles framelets, a doily and some silver metallic thread. I used the remainder of the card that I had cut the circle with to give me the border for the stamped images of the curvy cloud and heart.

Oh, and I did emboss the large scalloped circle with the Decorative Dots TIEF
