I have made a pastel stacked milkshake card today using the Share a Milkshake stamp set and Dies.

Colours used in this card are:

To recreate the pastel stacked milkshake card, you will need:

Balmy Blue card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Pale Papaya card – 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Basic White card – 5¼” by 3½”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside
Scrap Basic White & Pale Papaya card

The sentiment was stamped in the lower right corner of the smaller panel of Basic White card in Calypso Coral ink.

Using a Blending Brush, I swirled some Balmy Blue ink onto the centre of the same Basic White panel before gluing the panel to the layer of Pale Papaya card. The whole piece was then glued to the Balmy Blue card front.

I stamped the solid milkshake glass in 2^nd generation Calypso Coral ink onto scrap Basic White card and added the detail glass overtop in full strength Calypso Coral ink.

The ice-creams were stamped on scrap Basic White card using 2^nd generation Flirty Flamingo ink, 2^nd generation Balmy Blue ink and full-strength Pale Papaya ink. I used the Share a Milkshake Dies to die cut the glass and ice-creams out.

I also die cut a background ‘net’ piece from scrap Pale Papaya ink and cut it down the middle to give 2 smaller pieces.

Dimensionals were then added to the back of the glass and placed it onto the card front, tucking in the net pieces which were held in place by the Dimensionals.

The Ice-cream pieces were then added above on Dimensionals and a scattering of Fine Sparkle Gems completed the card.

Hello and welcome to the Stamping With Friends Blog Hop where we are sharing projects showcasing the ‘Kissing Technique’. I have used the pretty Share a Milkshake stamp set and dies to make my card.

Colours used in this card are:

To recreate the glass of milkshake card, you will need:

Sweet Sorbet card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Soft Suede card – 3⅞” by 2½” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 3¾” by 2⅜” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – rounded upper left corner

Using Sweet Sorbet ink, I stamped the floral image from the Blessings of Home stamp set around the edge of the Sweet Sorbet card front and set it to one side.

The trio of hearts were stamped in Sweet Sorbet ink onto the smaller panel of Basic White card and then glued to the Soft Suede layer. Tis was then glued to the card front.

I inked up the solid milkshake glass in Pale Papaya ink and set it down with the inked side uppermost. I then inked the floral image in Sweet Sorbet ink and stamped it down onto the inked surface of the milkshake image. The floral image transfers onto the milkshake glass, so cool. I stamped it down onto scrap Basic White card and die cut it out using the Share a Milkshake Dies. I added it to the card front on Dimensionals.

The ice-cream was stamped in Soft Suede ink and die cut with the same set of dies. The straw was stamped in Sweet Sorbet ink and die cut. The straw was tucked into the slit in the die cut ice-cream and the piece was added on Dimensionals.

Rain or Shine Stamp-a-Stack

Posted on February 20, 2023February 18, 2023 by Mo Rootes

A couple of days ago I ran my first Stamp-a-Stack of the year with all the cards designed around the Rain or Shine designer Series Paper (dsp). This is such pretty paper and I love the Loose Daisy Embellishments which pair with it so beautifully.

Each attendee pack contains all the supplies necessary to make 2 each of the 10 cards I designed plus lots of extra to add to their crafty stash at home. It is a great day with lots of chat and great company.
