A Cherry On Top Birthday Card

I finally got around to making a card for the Mojo Monday 270 Challenge. I’m only two days late. 🙂

Here is the list of products that you will need to make this card:

A Cherry On Top Hostess Stamp Set (125969 wood, 125971 clear)
Large Scallop Edgelits (127019)
Delicate Designs Embossing Folders (127023)
1-3/8″ Circle Punch (119860)
1-1/4″ Scallop Circle Punch (127811)
1-1/4″ Circle Punch (126901)
1″ Circle Punch (119868)
3/16″ Corner Punch (119871)
VersaMark Pad (102283)
Silver Stampin’ Emboss Powder (109131)
Heat Tool (129053)
Stamp-a-ma-jig (101049)
Cherry Cobbler 1/2″ Scallop Dots Ribbon (124138)
Baja Breeze Classic Ink Pad (126960)
Cherry Cobbler Classic Ink Pad (126966)
Early Espresso Classic Ink Pad (126974)
Regals Designer Series Paper (117154)
Early Espresso Card Stock (119686)
Baja Breeze Card Stock (111352)
Whisper White Card Stock (100730)
Stampin’ Dimensionals (104430)

I started by cutting the background panel from the Cherry Cobbler piece of the Regals DSP Stack to 4″ x 5-1/4″. Then I cut a strip of Baja Breeze Card Stock to 1-1/2″ x 5-1/4″, cut it with the Large Scallop Edgelits and embossed it with the Delicate Designs Embossing Folder. Next, I cut a strip of Early Espresso Card Stock to 3/4″ x 5-1/4″ and I layered it over the Baja Breeze strip and adhered them both to the Cherry Cobbler DSP panel. Then I cut a piece of Cherry Cobbler ribbon to 5-3/4″ and I adhered it over the embossed strip and pulled it around the back side of the DSP Panel. I adhered the Cherry Cobbler panel to an Early Espresso card base. Then I started stamping the images, I used the cake plate and I only inked up the top part of the plate with VersaMark ink (I used my finger to rub off the smudges of ink that got onto the stem while I was inking the image) and I stamped it on Whisper White Card Stock. I sprinkled the image with Silver Stampin’ Emboss Powder and heat embossed the image. I used my Stamp-a-ma-jig to stamp the images over the cake plate using Baja Breeze, Cherry Cobbler and Early Espresso inks. I trimmed around the image and punched the corners with the 3/16″ Corner Punch. Then I layered a piece of Early Espresso Card Stock behind the image and used the 3/16″ Corner Punch on the corners as well. I used Stampin’ Dimensionals to adhere the image to the card base. Then I used my Stamp-a-ma-jig again to line up and stamp the images of the little candies and I punched them out with the 1″ Circle Punch. I added coordinating layers behind the images using the 1-1/4″ Scallop Circle Punch, the 1-1/4″ Circle Punch and the 1-3/8″ Circle Punch. Then I used Stampin’ Dimensionals and adhered them to the card front.

I thought the colors made a great dessert card. Hope that you like it too!
