Quick & Easy Card with the Everyday Thanks Stamp Set

Hello Everyone,

I love this stamp set. It’s a brand new one from the Stampin’ Up! annual catalogue.

I knew I wanted to make this card as soon as I saw the stamp set during pre-order and now it’s here, I can!

The pencil crayons are coloured with Stampin’ Blends; I chose Lemon Lime Twist, Bubble Bath and Lemon Lolly

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

The Stitched with Whimsy dies add some fun detail to the background.

This version uses Blueberry Bushell, Real Red and Shaded Spruce.

I hope you enjoyed this project.

Simple Stamping with Botanical Layers

Hello Everyone,

I have a bit of simple stamping to share today. I’ve used Botanical Layers with Blackberry Bliss and Fresh Freesia…. I’m so glad we are keeping this colour!

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

Using second generation ink adds another shade without using another inkpad!

This combo uses Soft Seafoam and Shaded Spruce – another great Regal and Subtle combination!

Inspire.Create.Challenges #133 – Theme Challenge – New to You!

Hello Everyone,

Welcome to my blog and to my Inspire.Create.Challenge design team project!

Click the button below to see the other design team inspiration projects. You can also take part and add a photo of your creation here too!

I chose to work with a brand new stamp bundle called Dainty Delight.

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

I combined colours from the bright and subtle colour families for the layering and chose a matching ink for the sentiment.

The image was coloured very simply with Stampin’ Blends.

A touch of ink blending in the background makes the die cut elements pop.

I opted not to add extra embellishments.

I hope you enjoyed this project.

Using the Rays of Light Background Stamp

Hello Everyone,

Today I thought I would show you how you can use the Rays of Light background stamp with the Stamparatus tool.

In this example I used Balmy Blue, Pacific Point, Starry Sky and Night of Navy inks.

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

The Stamparatus made it easy to layer the colours and add the versamark ink!

This sample used Daffodil Delight, Mango Melody, Pumpkin Pie and Cherry Cobbler inks.

Why not try stamping onto patterned paper or an ink blended background?

I hope you enjoyed this project.

Easel Card with Colour and Contour

Hello Everyone,

I’m bringing out another favourite stamp set for today’s card!

I created a hand stamped background, opting to use Basic Grey rather than black ink for a softer look. This complimented the Highland Heather ink I added to the flowers.

For something different I made this into an easel card. I thought this provided an opportunity for the beautiful scalloped edge to shine through.

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

The original card used So Saffron. I love this cute new tag punch!

Using the Heavenly Hollyhocks Bundle

Hello Everyone,

I’ve been itching to use this bundle from the annual catalogue and I’m so pleased with the results!

Here is the original sample using Tahitian Tide, Night of Navy and Parakeet Party.

Stampin’ Blends can be used to colour basic rhinestones go match the project!
