Last Week’s Card & Cuppa – Words & Wishes Stamp Set

At last week’s Card & Cuppa class, we used the Words & Wishes Stamp Set to create this fun Birthday Card.

As I wanted this card to be something to send to anyone, I chose a colour scheme to reflect this.

My colour combination is Lost Lagoon, Pretty Peacock and Secret Sea, with Daffodil Delight and Basic White.

First, the words from the Stamp Set are stamped across the background in Lost Lagoon and Pretty Peacock.

Next, two circles are punched using the Circle Punches. The cake is then stamped in Secret Sea. Candles are stamped onto a separate piece in Daffodil Delight.

Using Watercolor Pencils, the cake was coloured. We also coloured the main body of the candles too, to look a little different to the flame.

These were then cut out using fussy cutting. If you didn’t want to cut by hand, you could use the coordinating Dies.

The cake was layered onto the larger circle before the candles were carefully stuck to the top of the cake.

This whole piece was then stuck onto the project using Dimensionals.

Finally, some Moody Palette Glossy Dots from the Online Exclusives range were added.

July 2026 Card Making Class – Project 4

Today I’m sharing this bright Birthday Card, the final project from my recent Card Making Class.

The theme for the class was ‘It’s all new to me!’ and used Stamp Sets I hadn’t used at a class before.

This design features the Words & Wishes Stamp Set & Dies Bundle from the May-August Catalogue.

I chose bright colours as this would make a great card for a teenager, or someone who is difficult to make for.

My colour combination is Pumpkin Pie, Crushed Curry and Poppy Parade, with Basic White. There is also Daffodil Delight in there as an accent too, more on that later.

To begin, a background flare is created in Crushed Curry, using a Blending Brush. Next, the candles are randomly stamped in the same colour.

Parcels are stamped and cut out using the coordinating dies. The birthday word and layer are then also cut out and carefully stuck together.

‘Happy’ is also stamped on a separate piece.

Each piece is then stuck to the background, with the ‘Happy’, ‘Birthday’ and one present raised up on Dimensionals.

As there isn’t a Crushed Curry Stampin’ Blend, I chose to use Daffodil Delight instead to colour the Rhinestone dot above the ‘i’.

Finally, three more Rhinestones were added for a touch of Birthday bling.
