STAMPlorations 8th Birthday

 

Welcome to the STAMPlorations 8th Birthday celebrations! And to celebrate, there are three new Birthday Bundles available in the STAMPlorations store. I created a bunch of projects using the products from Birthday Bundle #2 and Distress Inks.

For my first card, I stamped the florals from Birthday Bundle #2 in Versafine and watercoloured with Distress Inks, letting the colours bleed outside the lines of the image and splattering ink across the panel. Next, I die cut the panel using Crazy Double Running Stitch Rectangle Nesting dies. The sentiment is also from Birthday Bundle #2, stamped in Versafine on vellum.



For my second card I decided to create a colourful rainbow background using the border die from Birthday Bundle #2. I grabbed a rainbow coloured panel I created using Distress Oxides from my UFO box, and cut it multiple times using the die and then die cut the panel using Crazy Double Running Stitch Rectangle Nesting dies. I matted the panel onto black card to make sure the beautiful die-cut stips would show really well.  Next, I grabbed some cupcakes, stamped using Sweet Kindness and coloured with Distress inks. The sentiment was stamped using one of the sentiments from Birthday Bundle #2 onto a piece from a Watercolor ATC Journaling Card


My third project is a tag which I started by inking Distress Ink through the stencil included in Birthday Bundle #2. I die cut the tag using Stitched Tags Nesting Dies, stamped the florals from Birthday Bundle #2 and stamped the sentiment on matching scrap pieces of card.


My fourth card again uses the beautiful florals Birthday Bundle #2 (can you tell how much I love them?!?!) which I stamped in black and watercoloured with Distress Inks. I die cut a strip using the die from the set and stamped the sentiment on vellum. 


Don't worry, we are getting to the end now! I used the leftover inked panel from the tag above for one more card - I die cut the panel with the die included in Birthday Bundle #2. I then stamped the florals on one of the gorgeous Watercolor ATC Journaling Card, added a sentiment and finished everything off with a strip of watercolour washi tape.

And that's it for my birthday projects! Don't forget there are prizes for grabs over on the STAMPlorations blog in the 8th Birthday celebrations post including an amazing $75 prize code to the STAMPlorations store.
