I’m thrilled to be hopping along with Scrap ‘n Stamp Canada to celebrate their 14th Birthday! There’s loads of inspiration across all social media platforms and you can comment for your chance to win a $50 gift certificate to the shop. There’s also a weekend sale and you can save 14% on select birthday items.

My two cards feature several stamps and dies from Concord & 9th, ink from Catherine Pooler, and various types of cardstock from Lawn Fawn and more. Scrap ‘n Stamp offers so many varieties and brands of cardstock; it’s my main source given the weight and cost of shipping cardstock. You can find all of those supplies linked below.
My first card features the Love You More Than Dies, which I layered with Lawn Fawn‘s Rainbow cardstock pack. If you’re unsure whether you’ll like certain colours, this is a great starter pack since all of the colours coordinate well with each other. I’m very picky about quality and this saturated, sturdy 100lb cardstock is everything I want in cardstock!

I paired my die cuts with sentiments from the Hip Hip Hooray Stamp Set. I ombre-stamped the large letters with Oh Boy!, Fiesta Blue and Minted inks (top), and Rouge and Peppermint Scrub inks (bottom). I used coordinating blender brushes to blur the transition lines between colours before stamping. The three little stars were stamped in Tiara ink. Using the Hip Hip Hooray Dies, I cut three stars from silver glitter cardstock to add some bling to the card.

My second card featuring the Downtown Stacks Dies was so much fun to make and I want to make a craft night out of this set with my family. Once the pieces were die cut and laid out, they were super easy to assemble. The dies for the coordinating Downtown Stacks Stamp Set make it easy to cut out the banners and shop names!

This card also features Lawn Fawn‘s Rainbow cardstock pack and gives you a better indication of the fun and pretty colours. I love how the Downtown Stacks Dies include so many architectural varieties. You can build so many different cityscapes. There are additional details like balconies, awnings, cars, buses and patio furniture which I didn’t include here.

Since Scrap ‘n Stamp is celebrating its 14th Birthday, I had to use the birthday banners on this card and I added the tiniest silver bows using DMC Diamant silver thread. Neither silver clouds, white clouds nor vellum clouds alone worked for me so I layered vellum over white cardstock to make them look like and fluffy.
