Hump Day Lunch Break- Sweet Peas

Each Wednesday I feature a Hump Day Lunch Break, well sometimes it’s a dinner break. This week I featured the Sweet Peas Stamp set, create cute projects to celebrate new babies, show appreciation, or wish p-pea birthday. Plus this is a great set to color with your favorite coloring tools. I decided on using Watercolor pencils. I forget how fun it is to use my water color pencils, water painters and fluid 100 paper. This stamp set is soooo sweet I just could not resist playing around with it. In fact, I have been having so much fun with it that I will be featuring it for the August Studio Club. Make sure you sign up for my email so you can be the first to now when new classes, club, event and specials are offered. But without further ado, here is our Hump Day spotlight card.

Choose your favorite coloring tool and technique to add color to the cute images. The smaller ones easily fit on a die-cut shape or labels. I used the Nested Essentials dies here. When you pair the image and greeting, you end up with an absolute cuteness overload!

Today’s adventure in Card making featured making 3 different cards using 1 card layout. I love being able to use the same layout multiple times and have each card be unique just by changing up the Stamp sets and Papers. Which is your favorite? leave a comment below I would love to know.

It all started with a card base, the a 3-1/8″ x 4-3/8″ cardstock layer, a 3″ x 4-1/4″ piece of Designer paper. Add a focal element, stamped or die cut image and a sentiment. Check out the YouTube video below.

Pocket Thoughts Graduation Card

June is full of new beginnings such as graduations. I really thought that the Full of Life DSP added just the right touch to the Graduation Card I made for my cousins daughter. And yest, I do actually use the cards I create! The front is actually a pocket that slides out a place for a sentiment and gift card holder. Below is the list of products I used to create this fun and bright card. For this card I also pulled in the Hexagon Punch and Hexagon Happiness Stamp set to create my focal image. Top see the surprise inside- watch the video below

Measurements:

  • Berry Burst Cardstock: 5-1/2″ x 4-1/4″
  • Basic White Cardstock: 5-1/4″ x 4″, 3-5/8″ x 4-3/4″
  • Full of Life Designer Paper: 6″ X 6″

Cupcake Pocket Thoughts Card

I love stamp sets with cupcakes, not sure why but I do and when it has a swirly frosting with it, I love it even more. I enjoy stamping on colored cardstock, but I have to admit, I don’t always think to do it. This set is perfect for that. Not only is the card fun to make, just think of the person that receives it. They will love the extra little surprise in the pocket!

I am not a frosting kind of gal, it is way too sweet for me. I prefer a whipped topping. But since this set has a swirly frosting image, I had to run with it. To really make this card stand out, I used the painted textured embossing folder. It reminded me of the pattern that is created when you spread frosting on a cake. I just could not resist.

Measurements:

  • Lemon Lolly Cardstock
  • Bubble Bath Cardstock
  • Crumb Cake Cardstock
  • Pretty in Pink Cardstock
  • Basic White Cardstock: 5-1/4″ x 4″ (inside) and 1/2″ strip for sentiment
