Last week’s Card & Cuppa for Children project was this colourful Birthday Card.
You may notice it is similar to this project the adults made at their Card & Cuppa class earlier in the week.
This is deliberate!
I like to design a project to work across both classes, sometimes making small changes to each one.
This version has swapped the coloured Baker’s Twine for strips of card. There is also no colour flare and the design is portrait instead of landscape. Everything else stays the same.
Once again, the background is stamped using the Gears & Textures Stamp Set.
Then, the three strips of colour are added across the project.
Next, the circle is stamped and cut out, along with a layer using Circle Punches.
This sits over the top of the strips on Dimensionals.
Finally, as for the adult’s class, some Moody Palette Glossy Dots are added.

For last week’s Card & Cuppa project I designed an abstract card.
At last week’s Card & Cuppa for Children class, one of the young attendees said they liked rainbows, so I decided to create a very colourful project.
You will notice that this project is the design for my adult session, not the one I run for children. Pop back later in the week for that one!
This card uses 6 colours, plus Basic White. Four colours for the background, Lemon Lime Twist, Balmy Blue, Calypso Coral and Highland Heather. Then we have Lemon Lolly and Basic Gray for the sentiment.
All of the stamping, apart from ‘Happy Birthday to you’ are from the Gears & Textures Stamp Set.
Each of the images are stamped onto the background in four colours before a slight flare of colour is added using Lemon Lolly and a Blending Brush.
Next, the round image is stamped and cut out, along with a layer using the Circle Punches. The sentiment from the Exciting Times Stamp Set is then added.
Picking three of the colours, strands of Baker’s Twines from the Essentials Pack are then coloured using Stamping Blends.
These are stuck across the centre of the project.
The layered sentiment sits over the top using Dimensionals.
Finally, three coordinating gems from the Moody Palette Glossy Dots are added.

At last week’s Card & Cuppa, I continued my run through of the 2026-2028 In Colors. This time, I was introducing Golden Glow.
I chose to create a more masculine-style card using the Gears & Textures Stamp Set from the May-August Catalogue. This Stamp Set has coordinating Dies as part of a Bundle, but for this project, we only used the Stamp Set.
My colour combination alongside Golden Glow was Pecan Pie and Early Espresso. As I wanted to create a warmer card, to mirror the warmth of Golden Glow, I chose Very Vanilla over Basic White.
To begin, the various splats, textures, cogs, chains and more (except the small screw head shape) were stamped across the background.
Next, using a Blending Brush and Pecan Pie, various areas were inked to give a more industrial feel.
Two shapes were cut using the Triple Banner Punch, with one stamped using the coordinating Banner Sayings Stamp Set, To create the background layer for the sentiment, the Early Espresso piece was cut in half and stuck to the back.
Before assembling everything together, the small screw head image was stamped several times. This was our ‘bling’.
Finally, the card was assembled with the sentiment raised up on Dimensionals.
The picture below shows a comparison of the new Golden Glow In Color against current Stampin’ Up! Colours.
