More cake?

My 6" square card uses the fun new Flockstar digital stamp set from the Beccy's Place Store. I combined the "Kenneth" pre-coloured digital stamp with the "Love Cake" digital sentiment from the same digital stamp set. The bonus of having the digital image is that it's easy to flip him for a new look.

This is such a fun set and I've been playing around with different colours and accents.

The orange and pink with the pop of black make for a cheery celebration.

Here is my new bright orange-pink-floral card and

the bold black-pink card from a couple of months ago.

Just want cake?

No, you're not seeing things,

it's Kenneth the Flockstar again.

I already shared a card made using the fun new Flockstar digital stamp set from the Beccy's Place Store. I combined the "Kenneth" pre-coloured digital stamp with the "Love Cake" digital sentiment from the same digital stamp set. To make this 6" square card I mirrored the Kenneth image and matted the sentiment panel to match the card matting ... two cards same-but-different.

My Favourites . . . for a Special Birthday

This special card combines several of my favourites:

- birthday celebrations

- sparkle

- aqua-coral colour combo

- pre-coloured digital stamps

- layers

... and lucky last, family

I love to personalise cards and as our niece is studying science at university,

this image of a cute scientist with her experiment bubbling away

seemed to be the perfect choice to celebrate her special day.

This card uses the Love Is Chemistry digital stamp from the The Paper Shelter. I opened the pre-coloured digital stamp in Silhouette Studio and sized it to 5" square then printed on textured cardstock. I trimmed the image panel down to size, adhered to Scuba weave cardstock, then trimmed to a 1/16" matting layer with a Perfect Layers Ruler. I cut a 6" panel of Rose weave cardstock, adhered to a 6" card base, then adhered the matted image panel on top. The matting layers add nice dimension and the colours complement the image perfectly.

Next came the sparkle. Making our 2023 Christmas cards reignited my love of using Wink of Stella Glitter Brushes. I used the White brush to add sparkle to the pink chemical and hearty steam bubbling away and the Clear brush to add sparkle to all the other chemicals. It's such a delicate sparkle and mess free, no chunks of glitter falling off and spreading sparkle everywhere but where you want it.

I matted a panel for the birthday sentiment inside the card too.
