Gears & Texture birthday card – The Project Share Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the February 2026 Project Share Project blog hop. Our fabulous little group of independent Stampin’ Up! demonstrators regularly share each others projects and also create a new project for a monthly Blog Hop. Our theme this month is a colour challenge – we get to pick 1 Neutral, I Regal and 1 Bright colour. So I’ve created this Gears & Texture birthday card…

ABOUT MY CARD

I chose Pecan Pie, Cherry Cobbler and Pumpkin Pie as my 3 colours.

My card base is Pumpkin Pie card. I cut a layer of Basic White card and stamped lots of texture onto it, along with the birthday greeting from Layered Thoughts. For even more texture, I added a little bit of die cutting with Gears & Textures too, using Gold Foil, Cherry Cobbler and Pecan Pie card.

I love the splatter stamp from the Gears & Texture stamp set, but I wanted to add a fine splash of colour too. So, I used my Pumpkin Pie Stampin’ Blend to add some…

And of course I had to add a white layer inside with a little bit of ink blending and stampin too…
