Just Because

Hello Everyone,

I fancied doing some colouring today so I pulled out this lovely hostess stamp set.

Choose this set when you host a party or place an order of £150 or more…… And, during Sale-a-bration get extra rewards on orders over £200.

I stamped the main image with Memento Ink. This is a ware based ink so it won’t bleed when the image is coloured with Stampin’ Blends.

The blending was achieved by starting with the lightest colour, adding the shading and then blending with the light colour again. Work in small sections while the ink is still wet for best results.

The coloured panel was then matted on to Mango Melody card stock and adhered to a Cajun Craze card base.

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.

Don’t forget to see more about Sale-a-bration and the free products available when you spend multiples of £45.

If your shopping wish list gets to £99, there’s no better time to join my team. You can choose £170 worth of products to be included in your personal starter kit; add a little extra and receive an exclusive Stampin’ Up! Craft & Carry tote.

Thanks for stopping by today and happy Stampin’!

Lovely Lattice

Hello Everyone,

I made today’s card using a stamp set I received for FREE as part of Stampin’ Up!’s Sale-a-bration event.

It’s called Lovely Lattice and can be chosen as a free item when you place an order of £45.

The image was stamped on to Vellum with versamark ink and embossed with white powder.

I coloured on the reverse with Stampin’ Blends for a faux parchment effect.

As vellum is tricky to stick down I used an adhesive sheet. I cut this with the new layering rectangle dies.

A simple sentiment stamped with Old Olive ink completed the card.

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.

Butterfly Gala

Hello Everyone,

This is Butterfly Gala…. A gorgeous new stamp set coming to you soon.

Each image can be stamped and coloured in many different ways, and no need to fussy cut…. There is a matching punch!

I chose to use Pineapple Punch and Grapefruit Grove. I applied the ink to the stamped images with a sponge dauber.

The rest of the card I kept black & white. I love this bold sentiment.

Beauty Abounds

Good Morning,

Today’s card features the new Beauty Abounds stamp set coming to you in January….. I just love the butterflies and bokeh dots.

I began by stamping the dots with Balmy Blue ink on a 3 by 4-3/4 inch panel of Whisper White card stock. These stamps were inked using a sponge dauber to ensure the detail of the image was maintained.

Three butterflies were added with 2nd generation Blueberry Bushel ink.

The panel was mounted on to Blueberry Bushel card stock. This was then adhered to a card base with dimensionals.

The same ink was used to stamp the sentiment. This was added with snail adhesive with the ends overlapping the edge of the topper panel.

I hope you enjoyed this project.

A Lovely Lipstick card base was prepared by stamping “hooray” along the right hand edge.

The stamped panel was added to the card. “Congratulations” was added below it.

A strip of Blueberry Bushel card was adhered with five Pineapple Punch flowers.

Dear Doily

Hello Everyone,

This post introduces the beautiful Dear Doily bundle.

I began by preparing a Whisper White card base. A 3 by 4-3/4 panel was layered on to some Gorgeous Grape card stock and added to the card.

The large doily was die cut and adhered in the bottom right corner.

I used the Stamparatus to stamp three of the florals. Ink was applied to the stamp with sponge daubers. The images were die cut and adhered with mini dimensionals.

For the sentiment, I first stamped a small doily using Smoky Slate ink (stamped off). Gorgeous Grape ink was then used to add the wording. This was cut with a 1-1/2 inch circle punch.

I hope you enjoyed this project. The supplies used are listed and linked to the online store below. Some products will be be available from 5th January 2019.

The sentiment was stamped with Balmy Blue ink and die cut.
