Pineapple Punch – Everything Amazing

I have this bright and cheery birthday card using Pineapple Punch. I’ve not used this colour at all. It retires on 2nd June and I wanted to start to use some of it up before it goes into my stash.

This stamp set doesn’t stamp the image in this jet black way. The image is not coloured in so don’t think you have done something wrong when you stamp it and it doesn’t look as above. I used my black Stampin’ Write marker and journaling pens to colour the image in. It took a little time but was worth it I feel.

I’ve stamped on designer series paper (DSP) instead of my normal whisper white. This is the DSP from the 2018 -2020 in-colours that retire in June. I think the black against the pineapple punch is quite striking.

There is added interest in the background from the brick and mortar embossing folder. I am rediscovering my love of embossing folders and will try to use them more in my crafting. I also love enamel dots and so have gone enamel dot mad on this card. They add an extra something to the card.

I have this easy and simple birthday card to share with you today using the Everything Amazing stamp set. This is a great set as you can customise your sentiment around the main word Amazing.

I love everything about this card. It is simple and elegant. I love Bermuda Bay which is the colour in the background. The stamp stamps a shaded grey rather than jet black but I prefer the jet black as it gives better contrast and makes the sentiment pop. I coloured it in with the black stampin’ write marker.

I love big bold sentiments such as this one as I feel they are everything a simple card needs to make them stand out.

I am really glad that is has cooled down at last. Normally, I cope with the heat fine but when it gets over 30 degrees with the high humidity we experience in the UK that is pushing it. My maternal family is from South Africa. I find the dry heat in Pretoria much easier to cope with and can be in long sleeves still at 25 degrees. Consequently, I haven’t done much crafting this week and my videos may be a few days delayed.

I have a video as usual which is below with the supply list.
