Birthday | RejoicingCrafts

Hello crafty friends, happy STAMPtember 2023!
Can you believe fall is already everywhere (not in Australia, though)? As many of you already know, September is the best month for cardmaking and even we have the month-long STAMPtember festival! Today we have a huge STAMPtember Party with lots and lots of super talented card makers. I am SO SUPER excited and honoured to be a part of this awesome party. YAY!!

I made a couple of butterfly cards for this amazing party today! I used brand new Layered Cosmic Butterfly die, Intersection Lines Background stamp and Cue the Confetti stamp set.

For my first card, I made a butterfly birthday card. For the background panel, I heat embossed Intersection Lines Background on watercolour paper panel with white embossing powder, lightly applied some pale coloured distress inks (Tattered Rose, Antique Linen, Tea Dye). For the butterflies, I die cut two butterfly sets from white cardstock using the Layered Cosmic Butterfly die, blended them with warm coloured Pawsitively Saturated inks as below:
Pink butterfly: Rose & Sherbet / Purple butterfly: Citrine & Amethyst.
For the sentiment, I used the Cue the Confetti stamp set.

Here is another butterfly card with the Layered Cosmic Butterfly die.

I simply die cut all elements, butterflies and tiny flowers, from white & coloured cardstock and arranged them on A2 sized white card using foam tape. It’s so easy to make, right? :)

Hello, hello crafty friends!
Welcome to the first day of the Pretty Pink Posh 7th Birthday Celebration Blog Hop. Pretty Pink Posh turned 7! Come join this 3 days celebration for fun, inspiration and surprises. Let’s start!!

For my first card, actually this is my first card in 2021, I’m featuring brand new Peonies stencil along with the With Love shaker die.

I laid the Peonies stencil on A2 sized watercolour paper panel in place first, and then applied Distress inks onto the paper panel – Tattered Rose & Fired Brick for flowers, Mowed Lawn & Crushed Olive for leaves. I added red ink splatters all over the floral panel. I die cut heart shaped “with love” sentiment from white cardstock using the With Love shaker die, then decorated the edge with the new Sweetheart Rhinestones.

For my second card, I made a fun birthday shaker card with the new Birthday Cake dies.

I die cut the Birthday Cake panel from thick white cardstock first, and then die cut it from pale grey cardstock again. I inked balloons & cakes with Distress inks, then inlaid all elements in place.

For the middle part of the cake, I adhered acetate sheet to the back of them, filled with Sweetheart Rhinestones, White Hearts Clay Confetti and Sparkling Clear Sequins.

For my last card for the hop, I made a slimline birthday card with the new Slimline Peekaboo Windows die set – it is my first slimline card!! :D

I die cut stitched 3.25″ x 8.25″ base panel from white cardstock using the Slimline Peekaboo Windows die set first, and then made 3 square windows to the centre of the panel. I made colourful bokeh background using the new Layered Bokeh stencils. On the centre of the card, I added Copic coloured monkeys and leaves for fun!

Here is a closer look:
