Birthday Memories – Cake

I’ve used the Birthday Memories designer series papers from Stampin’ Up! to create this project and followed the card layout from the coordinating stamp’s catalog image. I also used some Make it Crafty chipboard embellishments for the sentiment and added some gems for sparkle.  Instead of using the stamps in the background, I substituted it for more decorative paper in the suite.

Theodore’s Birthday

Here’s an inspirational project for this week. On this project I’ve used Theodore’s Birthday rubber stamp from Little Miss Muffet Stamps. I had colored this image before (see it HERE) so I wanted to go with something different – to do that I used a different color pallet and colored the words differently. It’s so fun to see how a stamp can be changed by just using different colors. I think this will work well for a baby card too.

These are the Copic markers I used on Theodore’s Birthday:
R12, 17, 46
T1, 3, 5, 7
YG63, G43, 20
R12, E04, R43, RV42
B41, 95, BG72
YR30, 31, 23
BV23

Gazebo Overlook

For my project today, I’ve used Gazebo Overlook by DoveArt for Whimsy Stamps. When I started out, I had a bunch of ideas on how to make the scene stand out but the one that I wanted to try out the most was a night time sky. So that is what I started with.  It might have been better to leave that until last because once I got that dark blue on there, I had trepidation that this wouldn’t work out.  But I persevered and the final image came out.

These are the Copic colors I used on Gazebo Overlook:
C1, 3, 5, 7, BV23
B39, 000, 91, 93, 95
YG97,67, 63, 23, 21
E47, 44, 43, 42
white gel pen
This and other Whimsy Stamps are also available at Little Miss Muffet Stamps.

Theodore’s Shamrocks

I know it was just a couple days ago that I posted a project using this same stamp but I was compelled to use it again. This is actually the label from the Theodore’s Shamrocks rubber stamp package from Little Miss Muffet Stamps. As I was opening up the package, I could toss it out and thought it would make an excellent little note card. 

I fussy cut around the image and added some white dots with the gel pen. Then grabbed some coordinating paper and accessories and quickly put this together. I don’t open new packages very often (because I just order an extra stamp for myself before packaging) but if I did, then I’d certainly do this more often. It’s like receiving a bonus!  😀
