Pattern + Cupcakes = What Could Be Better!?

Morning!

I'm back today as promised with a couple more Patterned Occasions creations. They're two slightly different layouts but using the same "ingredients". 

Stamp Set: Patterned Occasions

Ink: Raspberry Ripple, Summer Starfruit, Pool Party, Lucky Limeade, Early Espresso

Cardstock: Whisper White, Crumb Cake, Lucky Limeade

Punch: 1 3/4" Circle

Big Shot: Chevron TIEF

Baker's Twine: Pool Party

I had such fun making these. I love all the different patterns and adore the fact that I could really bring out the chevron pattern from the cupcake case into the background with the embossing folder! 

The only real difference between these cards is the first has a little Limeade cardstock in it while the other uses pool party! Both are fun and cost effective ways of finishing off a card nicely though! 

Have fun creating something today!

It's All About The Pattern!

Hi there! 

I've got a really quick card for you today using the Sale-A-Bration set, Patterned Occasions - totally loving this set!

Stamp Set: Patterned Occasions, Alehambra (wheel)

Ink: Rich Razzleberry, Lucky Limeade, Daffodil Delight, Early Espresso

Cardstock: Whisper White, Rich Razzleberry, Lucky Limeade

Punch: Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border, Corner Rounder

Big Shot: Labels Framelits

Extras: Occasions Pierce Pack

Totally love the pattern from the Alehambra wheel - I think it works well with the pattern on the elephant! I also cracked out my sponges again (haven't used them much recently) to give a little colour to the edge of the labels framelit. I also added the paper piercing  inside the framelit for another little added detail. 

This would be a fun card that would work with any of the stamps in the Patterned Occasions set. Isn't it great when you find a layout that works again and again!?! Less thinking is sometimes the way forward! 

I've got a couple more cards with the Patterned Occasions for you tomorrow, so please do come back to see them! 

Happy Stampin',
