Celebrate with Cake

Who doesn't love cake??

I'ts such a great way to celebrate a special occasion and so why not put it on a card.

I actually made this many months ago and I'm only just getting around to sharing it now.

Ive CASE'd this card from the talented Tami White.



The colour combo caught my eye first, I love these colours together.

I did change up my version a little from Tamis original but I have kept the layout pretty much the same.

There are a few things that make this card great, firstly it could be a birthday card but it could also be an Engagement or Wedding card as well and you could just change up the colour combo to suit the celebration.

Also, those Word Dies...... they are so versatile and something different to stamping a sentiment. I think they make the card "fancy". The Wanted To Say dies are currently in the Last Chance section as they are on their way out, they are also discounted so grab them quick if you want them.

I think putting a lovely tiered cake on a card is a nice change also from say the standard flowers.

I'm really happy with this card and I can't wait to send it on its way to someone soon.

Everyday Happiness

 I LOVE Case-ing cards and when I saw this one, this was no exception.

It uses one of my fave designer papers at the moment and the colour combo just appeals to me.

This card has been cased from  Creative Chelsey.


The layout is nice and simple which is perfect for showing off the dsp.

I've also used a new upcoming product... The Impressions Abloom Bundle which will be abailable from May 6th in the new 2025-2026 Annual Catty.

I ended up making a few of these because they were so fun to make.

I did change up the sentiment from the original because I didn't want to stamp it on white cardstock and introduce another colour, so I stamped it in Pretty Peacock on Basic Beige.

The sentiment is also from a new stamp set available May 6th called Blooming Phrases.

I'm really happy with this card and I can't wait to send them on their way soon.

Wildflower Birthday

I do love making Birthday cards. 

They are the ones I send out the most so it's always a good idea to have plenty on hand.

Floral Birthday cards are the easiest, who doesn't love flowers right. So The Wildflower Birthday Specialty DSP pack is super easy to whip up cards like this one with a floral theme.


You get so many die cuts in the pack so there is alot of variety and elements to choose from. The larger ones such as the cake are the perfect size to fill a card front, making them the focal point of the card. 

So there isn't any need to add too much else with it. 

I've just popped a little flower die cut on top of the cake, stamped a simple sentiment in Night of Navy using the Simply Said Stamp Set, added some Gold Trim and done.

The pack comes with stunning papers as well so I've chosen one for the background that's not too busy, so it doesn't clash with the cake.

Some of the die cuts and paper designs have some gold foiling on them making them very fancy.

I'm really happy with this one and I look forward to sending it on it's way to someone soon.

Birthday Treat Mix & Match Ephemera Packs

I'm not sure if I have ever mentioned this before but I am slightly embarassed to admit that I never paid much attention to the Ephemera Packs when Stampin' Up! first released them.

I totally thought they were for Scrapbookers! Silly me!!

Then I saw this card, originally made by Angela Meiritz Reid of Stampin' Beauty in New Zealand.and well, they got added to cart pretty quickly lol




Who doesn't love some really pretty pre printed die cuts that you just pop out of the sheet and then add some adhesive to adhere to the card? It's too easy!

This card is a no stamping card, not even the sentiment as they are also included in the pack.
I literally popped all the elements from the sheet and placed on some Bubble Bath cardstock, which is a coordinating colour of the elements in the Ephemera pack.

Some of them don't have any colour and can be coloured in, such as the flags hanging in the corner, I've simply coloured those with a blue Stampin' Write marker, as well as the candles on top of the cake.
Finished off with some coordinating bling and what a cute card for someones birthday.
A big thank you to Angela for letting me CASE this card.

Mixed Florals

I love the look of a Watercolour Wash on a natural coloured cardstock and I particularly love Crumb Cake and Black together so I grabbed the products I needed and had a go at this.


So this one was pretty easy to colour which is great for me as I'm not a confident colourer. As long as I stayed in the lines I was ok.

I started by mixing some of our White Ink with some water and using a Water Painter, I lightly coloured in the stamped image, stamped with Momento Ink. I kept applying white until I reached the desired shade but you do have to be careful not to add too much water.

Once dried, I stamped my greeting on to a scrap piece of Crumb Cake using momento and fussy cut, then adhered dimensionals to the back and applied to the card. 

I finished it off with some Iridescent Foil Gems.

It's a lovely look and for my first time having a go at this, I don't mind the result. I think this makes for a lovely Sympathy card.
