Wonderful Fall #GDP159

Hello Everyone,

This week’s Global Design Project challenge is a cute seasonal theme; the design team have made some very varied projects as inspiration. You can see them here.

I have chosen to work with Colourful Seasons.

I created a heart shaped mask from post it note paper.

Pumpkin Pie, Calypso Coral and Pear Pizzazz inks were used to stamp the three different leaf images from the set.

The sentiment was taken from Rooted in Nature. I used the Stamparatus to ensure a crisp impression.

A few sequins completed the card.

I hope you enjoyed this project. The supplies used are listed below.

Just Add Vellum challenge #429

Hi Folks,

This week the Just Add Ink challenge is to add Vellum!

You can see inspiration from the design team here.

I love using Vellum… It is the perfect accent to add to the background of this card design.

Most of the design elements are all from the Falling Flowers stamp set and coordinating May Flowers dies.

I started by positioning a vellum die cut, securing it with some snail adhesive.

Flowers and leaves were stamped with Flirty Flamingo and Soft Sea Foam inks respectively. These were die cut and adhered with Multipurpose glue.

A rhinestone was added to each flower centre.

The sentiment from Wood Words was stamped with Shaded Spruce ink and cut using a 1-1/8 Scalloped circle punch.

I hope you enjoyed this project. The supplies used are listed below.

Inspire.Create #028

Hello Everyone,

There’s a new Inspire.Create challenge going on right now…. Look at these colours!

As always the design team have pulled out all the stops with their samples. You can see them here.

For my design, I wanted to use a stamp set with lots of complementary elements. I ended up choosing Swirly Bird.

The card itself was really easy to put together. First, I decided which stamps I would pair with each colour, (except Lovely Lipstick). I then built up the design, keeping in mind the “rule of threes”.

The corners were punched with the Detailed Trio Punch and adhered to a Lovely Lipstick card base.

I also used Lovely Lipstick card stock to die cut the word ‘love’ which I adhered to a Vellum circle.

The additional sentiments were stamped on to strips of white card stock. These were also added to the Vellum, this time with dimensionals.

The vellum was then adhered to the card with dimensionals, hiding them behind the other elements.

I hope you enjoyed this project. The supplies used are listed below.

I hope you enjoyed this project. The supplies used are listed and linked to the online store below.

The sentiment was stamped with Blueberry Bushel Ink and adhered with dimensionals.

Some Die cut snowflakes were added with glue dots and a small bow of mini Grosgrain ribbon.

Trick or Treat #FMS357

Good Morning,

As always on Friday, I am sharing my Freshly Made sketched challenge entry.

The design team have made some great projects which you can see here!

I have gone with a grungy Halloween theme featuring the Artisan Textures stamp set.

I masked off a section of a white card layer. Merry Merlot, Mossy Meadow and Night of Navy inks were used.

Some Sahara Sand Ink was added the edges before removing the mask.

The sentiment was added along the stamped edge with Merry Merlot ink.

Some spooky bats were punched from black card stock and painted with Frost White Shimmer paint.

Three Boats #GDP158

Hi there Everyone,

It’s Wednesday, so it’s time for a Global Design Project challenge.

This week is a sketch challenge and as usual the design team have made some wonderful projects to inspire us. See them all here!

I have pulled out the Lilypad Lake bundle. I liked the idea of having three little boats across the card.

I chose a neutral card base of Sahara Sand. A piece of Tranquil Textures Designer Series Paper was adhered to the base with SNAIL adhesive.

Sahara Sand ink was used to stamp the water on to a strip of Whisper White card stock. Some silver baker’s twine was tied around the piece before adding to the card with dimensionals.

The boats were stamped with Memento Ink and coloured with Stampin’ Blends markers to complement the paper in the background.

The sentiment was also stamped with Memento Ink and cut in to strips.

Some adhesive backed sequins were added to the background.

I hope you enjoyed this project. The supplies used are listed below.

Quick Cards with Falling for Leaves

Hi Everyone,

I really love stamp sets with leaves. For today’s post I have made three quick cards.

The first is simply stamping.

The leaves were added down the side and the sentiment tucked in at the bottom.

The second introduces a layer.

Leaves were stamped across the middle.

The sentiment was stamped separately and cut down to size. This was adhered with dimensionals.

And finally, adding a die cut.

I chose a stitched circle, but could have been a square or even an oval.

Leaves were stamped so to appear to be growing from behind the circle.

I hope you enjoyed this project. The supplies used are listed and linked to the online store below.

I would love to be your demonstrator.

There are some sale items available in celebration of World Cardmaking Day…… Only available for 7 days or while stocks last!

Soar Above the Rest Just Add Ink #428

Good Morning Everybody,

Here is this week’s entry for the Just Add Ink challenge!

These are the colours to work with; see all the design team projects here

When I showed these colours to my downline she immediately said “balloons!” so here they are. I love the Lift Me Up set; one of my favourites!

I went with a simple Layered card. Calypso Coral was used for the card base, adding layers of Whisper White and Pool Party.

Clouds were stamped over the top layer.

The balloons were stamped and die cut. These were adhered both flat and with dimensionals to add some depth.

The sentiment was added to one side slightly over hanging the top layers.

I hope you enjoyed this project. The supplies used are listed below.
