Two of a Kind - Simply Stampin' Challenge

Morning lovelies! I hope today finds you all well and chirpy? The challenge over at Simply Stampin' is to make 2 of a kind today... so of course I broke the rules... why stop at 2?!

When I made the first of these cupcake toppers I knew I had to make a whole set! These toppers are one of the makes we will be creating on my jubilee themed class on 6th May for which there are a few spaces still left - contact me at craftingbecky@gmail.com if you want to take part!

I love the colour combo of Real Red, Whisper White and Night of Navy - the closest match to the Union Jack flag colours. The three colours are so vibrant and create real impact, here is a close up of the red side of one of the toppers:

And the reverse of the same flower in the blue colour way is below. The stamp I have used is from the A la Carte selection of the catalogue, priced at £7.95 it is so versatile and wood mounted! Triple treat flower is a great starting place for beginner crafters and a great addition to the seasoned crafter's stash.

All items used are Stampin' Up! unless otherwise stated.

Recipe:

Stamp Sets: Triple Treat Flower

Inks: Real Red, Night of Navy

Card Stock: Whisper White

Punches: 1/2" Circle, 5 Petal Flower, Fancy Flower

Other: Dimensionals, cocktail sticks (non SU)

Happy Crafting!

Cupcake Punch SPECIAL OFFER!

Who doesn't love cupcakes?! 

I know I am a huge fan, they look and taste so good, so when I saw the build a cupcake stamp set in the mini catalogue, with the matching punch I had to have them! Because I think you will love them to, I am offering an exclusive 10% discount this weekend only! Here is a card using both of them, although it didn't turn out quite how I anticipated, as making it late at night, with dodgy lighting I thought I was using Bashful Blue - but actually used Baja Breeze. I also used Wild Wasabi thinking it was Certainly Celery. Oh well - I still like it!

Please excuse the dodgy stamping of the text at the bottom of the card - I blame being over tired when making this card along with the bad lighting!

If you love this stamp set and punch as much as I do you need to contact me quick! Both the punch and stamp set are only available to order until MONDAY!

The punch is great value at £15.50, and the stamp set is £20.95 (wood mounted) or £16.95 (cling mounted) BUT place an order with me for both the stamp set and punch this weekend and receive an exclusive 10% DISCOUNT on these items!

Here is a close up of the topper I made using the cupcake set:
