Hello Everyone,

Today’s card is made for the latest Inspire Create Challenge…. Challenge #178 is all about Autumn or Halloween!

I decided to mix up the two themes, using an alternative Halloween colour way for these beautiful autumn leaves.

I added some ink to the card panel to complement the leaves in the design.

The leaves were fussy cut and added in various angles with some lifted on dimensionals.

The sentiment was stamped with black ink to carry through the theme.

Let’s Create with the Regal Winter Suite!

Hello Everyone,

I spent the weekend crafting with my sister demonstrates and we used this beautiful Regal Winter suite.

I had some leftover pieces so I thought I’d make something else.

The DSP pieces ended up 1⅞ by 1⅛ which I spaced across some Wild Wheat cardstock, 2 by 3¾.

You can see how I made this card in my video tutorial….

Coordinating ink was was used to stamp the sentiment and leaf details.

To finish I added a bow in Wild Wheat ribbon and added some gold sequins.

These are my original cards using 3 by 5¼ DSP panels.

Decorative Christmas Trees using Non-Traditional Colours!

Hello Everyone,

You know it’s Christmas when its time to get the tree out and put up the decorations!

Now you can do it with cardstock too with the Decorative Trees bundle!

The trees were die cut from Balmy Blue cardstock. I chose the snowflake details to add on top which I cut from Basic White.

You can try using the colours the other way round… Or something completely different… Foil cardstock would look amazing!

For the baubles,I opted to stamped and then die cut, but you could use coloured cardstock too.

You can see how I made this card in my video tutorial….

Some metallic trim was wrapped around the background panel before adding the trees with dimensionals.

The sentiment was stamped on coordinating cardstock and heat embossed to match the trim.

This one uses the smaller tree and a more traditional red and green combo, on Basic Beige with gold metallic accents.

Inspire Create Challenge #177 – Case the Designer!

Hello Everyone,

Today’s card is made for the latest Inspire Create Challenge Design Team!

For Challenge #177 we are using a floral theme for all our projects!

You can see the other design team projects and take part in the challenge by clicking below!

I am using the Snowy Wonder bundle to make my card.

The Blackberry Bliss panel was cut to 4¾ x 3 and then cut at angle. Small trees and snowflakes were added in matching ink for a tone on tone effect.

The sentiment was added in the bottom corner.

A selection of cardstock scraps, (all subtles in this case), were stamped and die cut and adhered to a Basic White circle. I used a spare die cut but you could use a punch or a different shape altogether.

You can see how I made this card in my video tutorial…

Finally, some grey pearls were added to the front, and some trees were stamped on the inside.

Here’s an alternative combo using Night of Navy and the 2024 in colours.

I would love to be your demonstrator.
