Sweet Cupcake - Retiring Products Blog Hop


Welcome back to Theme Week!
Retiring Products
… with a bonus hop!

This week I have been sharing some of the wonderful products that we will be saying goodbye to at the end of May. 

Today is a bonus day for Theme week because I am part of a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator Hop.  Each of us will be sharing ideas for some of our favorite stamp sets and bundles.   Remember to hop through the list until you end up back here again, that way you can be sure you don’t miss anything.

The Sweet Cupcake stamp set and matching Cupcake Cutout Framelits are very versatile.  The words in the Framelits set are some of my favorites, although not used in any of today’s projects, I did use the ‘loop scallop’ die for the background on this first card sample.  I cut the design out 5 times and then adhere it to the same color (Crumb Cake) card base to create the background.  The cupcake base, top, and candle were also cut with the Framelits after stamping them. The base and candle are stamped in Mint Macaron (a returning color!), the top is Chocolate Chip (a retiring color) and Crumb Cake inks.  The candle ‘smoke’ is stamped in Chocolate Chip as is the sentiment. 

Above is a sample of the same card but a simpler version in the same colors.  The card base was embossed with a previously retired Textured Impression Embossing Folder, however, there are several current folders that would work great too!

This card uses the Picture Perfect Birthday Designer Series Paper Stack (6” x 6”) for the background image.  The sentiment is stamped onto Lemon Lime Twist ribbon using Memento ink. The cupcake base is stamped in Crushed Curry, the cupcake top is in Sweet Sugarplum, and the candle in Tempting Turquoise.

Until Next time . . .

Vintage Leaves - Theme Week -Day 6


Welcome back to Theme Week!
Featuring Retiring Products
Monday 4/23 – Saturday 4/27
With a bonus hop on Sunday!


This week I am sharing some of the wonderful products that we will be saying goodbye to at the end of May.  While you are waiting to see what will be new, don’t miss your last chance on so many amazing stamps before they are gone!
Excerpts.

While the season may not be right for this stamp set, it is too beautiful not to be included in my favorite retiring sets during Theme Week.

The Vintage Leaves stamp set is another favorite of mine.  It, along with the coordinating Leaflet Framelits, make such amazing fall cards, like the one below created by my Stampin’ Up! Corporate - Business Development Advisor, Nick.


I know it might be hard to think about making fall cards right now (although in Michigan it sure has been cold enough!), which is why I created the card below.

By using brighter colors, while reminiscent of fall, it is a cheerful way to remind us that spring IS coming.  The card stock for these projects will still be available in the new catalog, however, the accessories (ribbon, metallic shapes, and Glitter Shapes) will not be.  Get them while you can!

Until Next time . . .
