Hello Cupcake - More Sparkly Stained Glass

I said last week that I had made several more cards using the Sparkly Stained Glass Technique. I'm sharing two of them with you today :o) Both use the Freebie Sale-a-Bration stamp set Hello Cupcake.

A heads up here too .... I had to cut the Cupcake Frosting out by hand. This wasn't too bad because the image is simple but the layers of Acetate and Glimmer card together, don't make it easy! 

On 1st March Stampin' Up! are releasing some Limited Edition products that coordinate with some of the Sale-a-Bration stamp sets - Framelits!!! :o) So if you love this set, but don't want to have to cut it out by hand, make a note to check back on 1st March! 

You can see the other cards I made using this Technique HERE and HERE. I also did a Video Tutorial HERE.

The colour combination used on this first card is Blueberry Bushel, Balmy Blue and Daffodil Delight.

The Background paper is from the Gingham Gala 6" stack and I ran it through the Big Shot with the Tufted embossing folder.

The Daffodil Delight Organdy ribbon is from the Free Sale-a-Bration ribbon pack. 

I used Lovely Lipstick and Pool Party for the colour combination on this card. 

The paper is from the Subtles 6" stack.

I used the Stamparatus to stamp the sentiment. I first stamped it using Lovely Lipstick ink and then stamped it again in the same position using Versamark ink. It was then heat embossed using Clear Powder.

Narrow Notecards Card Box - using So Hoppy Together - Video Tutorial

I have a really cute project to share with you today using the Sale-a-Bration stamp set - So Hoppy Together. 

I created a little card box to contain some of Stampin' Up!'s Narrow Notecards and Envelopes. This isn't the first style of box I've created to hold these cards, you can find another project and Video Tutorial HERE.

You can find these cards on page 193 of the UK Annual Catalogue. The cards measure 11.4cm x 6.4cm (4½" x 2½") and are perfect as little notecards or 'Thank you' cards.

I wanted to use the gorgeous little Frog images again and decided to make two cards for each of the different main images, but also make each card slightly different to all the others :o) I wanted to incorporate all the Gingham Gala paper colours too, but as there are only five different colours I chose to use the Daffodil Delight twice :o)

I really enjoyed this project. It was pretty, bright and fun to do :o)

I made all the cards first. The layout of each is really simple, with just one dimensional layer for the image. Once they were all finished, I was able to work out the dimensions I needed for the box .... and this is what I am sharing with you in today's Video.

The stamp for this little Butterfly actually has him facing in the opposite direction. I wanted him to face my Frog though, so used the Mirror Image technique for the Stamparatus to create him :o) I also show you how to do this in the Video.

The box opens at the top and is simple to make.

Here is the Video ...
