Copper Embossed Birthday Card – Stampin’ Up!

I have a very simple and easy copper embossed birthday card. Heat embossing is magic. I will never forget the first time I saw this dull powder turn shiny and metallic.

This card is so clean and bright. I love the way everything coordinates so beautifully with Stampin’ Up! The copper embossed sentiment is enough of a wow element, so nothing else is needed.

I think this is a great card for a novice crafter as it allows you to make something you can be proud of with not a lot of supplies or special skills needed.

measurements

  • A6 Blueberry Bushel cardbase – (A6 cardbase is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half)
  • In Colour 2018 – 2020 family designer series paper (DSP) – 14.35cm x 10cm

As I type this, it is the start of the bank holiday weekend and for once the sun is predicted to keep on shining. I hope they are right. By the time this goes live we all know. Here in Lincoln, it is the Steampunk Asylum weekend so I will be going out tomorrow to see the huge variety of costumes on display.

Heat Embossed Birthday Card – Magnolia Lane

This heat embossed birthday card uses the Magnolia Lane products from Stampin’ Up! This is a very simple card that has an extra wow added through the heat embossing.

The Magnolia Lane designer series paper (DSP) is so beautiful that I didn’t want to cover it up with stamping and embellishments. I therefore create this simple but elegant card.

As I have said previously I love magnolias as like the blossom they herald the start of spring for me. We have quite a few magnolia trees near us here in Lincoln and they are a joy to me each year. In fact, nature has such a calming influence over me when I am anxious, unwell or just plain down in the dumps. The magic of every new flower is breathtaking.

I love the heat embossing on this card. Sometimes I think we forget what a great technique heat embossing is. I certainly won’t forget the first time I heat embossed something and the magic at watching the dull powder turn bright and shining.

Measurements

  • Mossy Meadow A6 card base
  • Magnolia Lane DSP – 14.35cm x 10cm
  • Vellum – 10cm x 4cm

This sentiment is heat embossed using white and therefore stand out nicely from the darker background. The heat to trick to heat embossing on vellum is get your heat tool good and hot before you bring into the vellum. This way it will melt the powder quickly with little warping to the paper. If there is any warping, just heat it from the bottom and it should even out.

Below is a video for this card with the supply list below.

Here are some links to some other projects made using this gorgeous DSP.

I, therefore, want to thank you for dropping by and until next time Enjoy Being Creative!!

Daisy Daisy, give me your answer

This Daisy birthday card reminders me of the old song we used to sing as children. The card uses both the large Daisy punch as well as the Daisy Lane stamp set.

Daisy Lane Birthday Card, made using supplies from Stampin' Up!

I love daisies, as Meg Ryan said in You’ve Got Mail, “They’re so friendly”. My Granny always had a beautiful big yellow daisy bush in her garden back in South Africa. I have many pictures it and of me standing in front of it. Daisies therefore hold a special place in my heart as they remind me of my Granny. We couldn’t find a yellow Marguerite in the UK for years but we have one now which is starting to flower this year.

This card uses a plethora of techniques including, emboss resist, inking and punching. I enjoy mixing things up and seeing what happens.

Bold and Bright colours are my thing and this card ticks both those boxes for me. I have used the Mango Melody, So Saffron and Daffodil Delight inks to make a blended background.

The stamp set is a new set called Daisy Lane which is companion set to the Daisy Delight set that carried over. They both coordinate with the large and medium Daisy punch. If you already have the one set then this is a great addition to your stash.

Measurements

  • Night of Navy A6 Card base
  • Whisper White 14.35cm x 10cm

I did video showing all the steps to make this card which is below with the supply list.
