SUO Challenge #380 | CASE the Designer

July 8, 2025 by Cindy Coutts +

Hello there! Thank you for joining me today for Stampin’ Up! Only Challenge #380, where we have a CASE (Copy and Share Everything) the Designer challenge featuring Designer Christy Stanford, and hope that you join us! Christy creates the most unique cards, scrapbook pages, 3D items, and more in such a fabulously clean and simple style that is just so beautifully designed.

The general rule when CASEing another designer is to change at least 3 things making it your own, while still recognizing the original design.

For my project today, I CASE’d this card using different designer series paper, tweaked the sketch, and used different colors.

As always, basic and project specific supplies are below.

I started out with an A2 top-folding Blackberry Bliss card base and layered on a piece of Floral Impressions DSP with Seal Adhesive.

The sentiment from Cake Celebrations was stamped at the bottom of the DSP in Memento Tuxedo Black ink and embossed with Clear Embossing Powder.

Next, I adhered another piece of Floral Impressions DSP onto the card base.

For the cake image from Cake Celebrations, I stamped the cake stand with Pecan Pie ink onto Basic White Regular CS and then layered up the rest of the cake using Pretty in Pink and Strawberry Slush. The candles were stamped in Blackberry Bliss ink with Darling Duckling flames.

This stamp set is so easy to layer up with 2-step stamping because of their photopolymer base.

I stamped the Old Olive leaves off once to stamp around the cake.

A Deckled Rectangle Die-cut was used to cut the stamped image out that was also partially die-cut at the top to customize my image size.

Lastly, not being a fussy cutter, I painstakingly cut 3 flowers from Floral Impressions Designer Series Paper and adhered them as shown to the cake with Mini Glue Dots, curling up the flower petals.

Three Gold Textured Adhesive-Back Dots were used to embellish the flower stamens (the center of the flower).

If you have any questions, please let me know. Have a great day and thank you for stopping by.
