I have a healthy new cake addiction after this weekend! I spent some quality time with my Occasions Catalog Preorder, especially this cake bundle – “Piece of Cake”. The stamp set has six different two-tier cakes to stamp, and there is a coordinating builder punch for the cake and pedestal cake stand.
I have only used one of the cake types on these three samples. I will show more types in the future. Like this one, they are all fun to color. I used Stampin’ Blends.
These are really simple cards. Besides the cardstock, each uses a coordinating 1 1/2″ strip of designer paper and some bling. It would be easy to make a set of these.
Have you noticed the different cake toppers on each? There are 21 stamps in the set, including a variety of cake-themed greetings.
These don’t even scratch the surface of all of the cakes I colored on Saturday. I planted myself on the couch with my lap desk and Stampin’ Blends for most of the day. It was the perfect activity for a rainy day with plenty of college football!
If you are going to use a builder punch to make a lot of duplicates, don’t forget to place your stamps to match the punch openings. I have been preaching this with the Stamparatus, but it applies to blocks, too.
Simply line up the stamps (with the back of the stamps facing up) in the openings of cardstock that has already been punched.
Then pick up the stamps with your block. I have sheets of pedestals and cakes stamped this way for coloring, and they will line up perfectly with the punch when I am ready to use them.
“Piece of Cake” and its coordinating Cake Builder Punch will be available to customers starting January 3. However, starting December 5, you can include any of these preorder items in your Starter Kit when you join as a Demonstrator. Not only is the Starter Kit a great deal, but you will also get at least 20% off on future orders. Please don’t hesitate to contact me if you would like to discuss this. Email me at stampyourworld@gmail.com, and we can set up a call.
Have a great Monday!
