I love the new Spice Cake DSP - I have already used up an entire pack of it! The next couple of days I am going to share some of the cards I made with it, and I am sure you are going to want some Spice Cake too!
On Tuesday evening I had my first stamp class in WI, and I was so excited to have nine people at my class! Many of the stampers were ladies I first stamped with 14 years ago when I first became a Stampin'Up! demonstrator. After living in KY for eight years, I wasn't sure if they would still be stamping, but they are!! I also had a few new customers come, which will hopefully help me to grow my business back to what I had when I left WI! I really love creating new designs for my customers and I am so excited to get things going.
Now for some Spice Cake!
Stamping Supplies:
- Stamps: Triple Treat Flower, Tiny Tags
- Ink: Early Espresso
- CS: Soft Suede, Pool Party, Vanilla, Mustard
- DSP: Spice Cake
- Ribbon: Crochet lace and linen thread
- Punches: Fancy Flower, 5 Petal Flower, Jewelry Tag, 1/2 inch circle, dotted ribbon border punch, corner rounder
Stampin Tips:
- The Triple Threat flower is such a great stamp. It works beautifully with the punches. On this card I was able to stamp 1 flower on pool party, and punch out all of the parts and pieces. Punch out the 4 petal flower first, then the 1/2 inch circle, then punch out your fancy flower.

Connie,
Absolutely love this card! Thanks for sharing it and glad you've completed your move back to WI!

Love the card, and I even think I recognize the layout from a card of mine I sent for a swap you hosted.
Great combo of patterned papers! I can't get enough of those spice cake colors.

Thanks Dawn, and yes Laura, this card is similar to your swap card! I loved your card and layout! Can I post your card to show the difference - I love to show cards that are different but the same!

Connie,
SURE, you can absolutely show my card... I actually starred your card in my google reader because I liked it so much, before realizing the similarity. I wanted to remind myself to come back and look again for inspiration when I had time to craft this weekend.
I agree about enjoying seeing cards that are similar but made with different stamps/color combos/themes!
