STAMPlorations 5th Birthday Event!


Hi everyone!
Welcome to join the 5th Birthday of STAMPlorations! I'm delighted to be joining the STAMPlorations inspiration team in this special event where there's over $500 worth of prizes to be won!


For a chance to win, what I'd love you to do is to comment this post... And for even more chances to with, CASE one of the cards in this post and link your card up HERE!!

Let's have a look at my cards:

Card 1 (above)
Here I've used cupcake stamps from Happy Everything and Make a Wish die. I've colored the cupcakes in with Copics and added details with Stickles glitter glue + white gel pen. The stitched rectangle die is also by STAMPlorations, Crazy Double Running Stitched Nesting Dies. The sentiment die is cut from black card and adhered to the card. I used Stick It adhesive which in my opinion is a must for adhering intricate die cut shapes, I highly recommend it!

With this card I'd like to join:

AAA Cards: The 4th Big Birthday Bash 


CAS-Ual Fridays Challenge: Birthday Celebration


Card 2 (below)
The wonderful sentiment die used here is called Celebrate Big. I've also used a STAMPlorations stencil called Stained Glass -my favorite stencil of all time! I used two shades of DI:s for sponging the stenciled design. I die cut a circle from dry embossed card and adhered the die cut sentiment on top of it -again I've backed my black card with Stick It before die cutting... Makes life easy! :) The circle is popped up for some extra dimension. 


With this card I'd like to join:
Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge: Masculine
Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Anything Goes

So, there they are, my two simple cards to celebrate the 5th Anniversary of STAMPlorations! Congratulations Shery and all STAMPgirls! Thanks for letting me to join in the party!

    I'm fairly new to STAMPlorations, but I have to say I really like their stuff! Glad you helped to get it off the ground five years ago, and look at these beautiful cards you've created today!
