Piece of Cake - Global Design Project Theme Challenge - GDP179

March 4, 2019

Sweets for the sweet. How about a delicious challenge for this weeks Global Design Project? We are playing around with a little sweetness.

What do you have in arsenal of craft products that could fit this theme?

I cracked open the Piece of Cake bundle for my projects today. I ended up making two cards.

Each card uses the cake and pedestal as the primary image layers with lots of additional elements.

You can create visual interest on your cards by layering various items. I’ve use the heart images from the Be Mine dies to create a frame around the cake on this first card. The cake has been colored using Stampin’ Blends and Stampin’ Write markers. A full list of supplies can be found at the end of this post.

This second card incorporates layers and textures to add visual interest. This card could work for any LOVE occasion.

Here’s a tip for you: when coloring think about how you can change the look of the original image by coloring outside of the lines or deliberately leaving areas uncolored. On this cake I’ve left the flowers white and added a small pink halos around all of the dots on the cake.

Ready to see more SWEET projects? Check out the Global Design Project blog. Play along with us! Tag your projects #gdp179 so we can be sure to find them on Pinterest and Instagram.

I’m crushing over this Eyelet Blooms Die. What a beautiful pattern! I used a die brush to remove all the little negative cut pieces. So satisfying! Colors: Bubble Bath, Strawberry Slush & Granny Apple Green. #stampinup #cardmaker #cardmakersofinstagram #cardmakingreels #gdp545
We have a  new baby in the neighborhood and so I crafted this sweet welcome card using the 'Notes of Spring' stamp set and 'Eyelets Blooms' die. Both products are a screaming deal at 5$ each with qualifying purchase. Get in my cart! Ha. I'm a sucker

Strawberry sweet … stamping on patterned & color paper to add quick color to these berries. The stamp set is called ‘Filled with Sweetness’. #stampinup #cardmakingreels #cardmaker cardmaking

A sweet card for a sweet friend! We are CASING the amazing @tinkermom85 this week @global_design_project - I love how Wendy stamped on patterned paper to add a quick pop of color. I took a similar approach and stamped the berries from the 'Filled with Sweetness' stamp set onto red patterned paper. The green stems were stamped directly onto Garden Green cardstock and then cut out and layered onto the red berries. Play along and tag your project #gdp544 The acronym CASE typically stands for Copy And Share Everything (or sometimes Copy And Selectively Edit). It refers to finding inspiration in another person's card design-such as layout, colors, or techniques, and recreating it, either exactly or with minor changes. #stampinup #filledwithsweetness #cardmaker #cardmakingideas
