Catherine’s Charming Fish Store with Ta-Da! Diorama! Shop Add-On!

Catherine‘s creativity is on display with this brilliant Ta-Da! Diorama! fish shop! With Ta-Da! Diorama! Shop Add-On and some fun and fishy stamp sets, she created a perfect birthday card for the seafood lovers on your list!

Catherine stenciled the store front with Brick Stencil, she added vellum to the shop windows, and she used Baby Skunk Line Dance paper for the shop awning! I love the black and white stripes. Then she created a fun store sign, that also serves as part of the sentiment! On a Stitched Label, she stamped “wishing you” from Offset Sayings: Birthday, replacing the W with a Harold’s ABCs F. She also stamped a cute little fish from Keep on Swimming.

The shop opens to show lots of seafood on ice and a happy little bear weighing an order!
Here are the images Catherine used to create this unique Ta-Da! Diorama! Shop Add-On:
Snow Much Fun – bear
Butterfly Kisses – net
Beary Happy Holidays – bucket of fish
So Smooth – ice
You Are Sublime, Keep On Swimming, Fintastic Friends, Life is Good – fish, crab, clam, lobster
Plan on It: Fitness, Treat Yourself – scale

Thank so much for this totally clever take on the Shop Add-On, Catherine! I’m completely inspired!

Jessica’s Birthday Shaker Card With Build-A-Drink Cocktail Add-On

Jessica inspires us today with a punny birthday card featuring So Smooth and Build-A-Drink Cocktail Add-On! Don’t “whirry”, it’s just a little mess! And just a number “wink”.

Somebody is making a mess in the kitchen with So Smooth! Smoothie making can be tricky and Jessica shows us just how with Paint Splatter Background Stencils and Seedless Preserves Distress Oxide ink. Her kitchen scene also includes a tiled countertop with help from Fruit Salad Petite paper and Simple Stripes: Portrait.

She used Build-A-Drink Cocktail Add-On to create a shaker filled with tiny seed beads and sequins in an appropriate berry color. Then she added “40” with Henry’s 123s.

Inside the card, the punny sentiment continues with a combination of Henry Jr.’s ABCs and Giant Happy Birthday! I love that Jess used Textured Dot cardstock; the polka dotted paper adds so much fun!

Thank you for sharing this super fun birthday card, Jess!

Thank you so much for watching!

Kara created the “1960’s kitchen of your dreams” to highlight our Build-A-Drink and Build-A-Drink Cocktail Add-On sets! Her yummy strawberry margarita is a perfect theme for a hot summer day!

To create the “tile backsplash”, Kara used the Honeycomb Stencil to add a blue hexagon pattern to her card front. Then she stenciled again with Clear Stencil Paste over the top to give the tile a shiny finish!

The Pastel Pearlescent Vellum looks so cool as a “strawberry margarita” in the Build-A-Drink Cocktail Add-On glass!

Kara used a fun mixed media technique to create the marbled “countertop”! She filled a paper plate with dollar store shaving cream, then added drops of Distress Ink refill. Using a craft spatula, she created the marbled pattern. She lightly pressed a plain white cardstock panel into the shaving cream. Then she lifted it up and scraped off the shaving cream revealing the marbled pattern of the ink. This is such a fun technique!

The So Smooth blender, cocktail glass, strawberries and ice cube tray fill up the left side of the vintage-looking counter, while the Build-A-Drink Cocktail Add-On margarita sits on a “table” in foreground, filling the space to the right.

Kara also used the marbled paper to die cut Scripty Enjoy bringing the fun texture to the inside of the card, pairing it with a sentiment from On the Beach.

Thank you so much Kara for this amazing 60s inspired kitschy kitchen design! I love seeing that shaving cream technique again!
