Inspire.Create 017

Hi Everyone,

I hope you are having a wonderful bank holiday!

Today’s project is my entry for the Inspire Create Challenge.

This time it is a sketch challenge…. I like these because it makes me think differently about my crafting. You can see what the design team did with this by clicking here!

This is how I decided to interpret this sketch.

Of course I am using up supplies that are due to retire at the end of the month.

The card base is made with Peekaboo Peach card stock with a layer of A Whole Lot of Lovely designer series paper added to it.

A 3/4 inch strip of Old Olive card stock was added at the top.

Three 1 inch squares of Peekaboo Peach card stock were cut ready to decorate the card.

The small flower from the Falling Flowers stamp set was stamped with Pool Party ink and die cut.

The flowers were adhered to each square with leaves punched from Old Olive card stock. This was then added to the card with dimensionals.

I wanted to add a sentiment, so I used a small thank you from Thoughtful Banners which was cut with the Classic Label punch.

Then I went a bit crazy with the rhinestones! Adding to the flower centres and the sentiment.

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

Thanks for stopping by and Happy Stampin’!

Just Getting Started?

Hi there,

Have you ever tried paper crafting? Have you been overwhelmed by all the things and not known where to start?

Why not try this new product bundle from Stampin’ Up!? With everything you need if you are “just getting started”!

Love What You Do photopolymer stamp set
Grapefruit Grove and Old Olive ink pads
Clear acrylic block
Very Vanilla A4 card stock
FREE Very Vanilla note cards and envelopes

Find out more by clicking here.

This the sample that Stampin’ Up! designers created using this bundle. I have used this idea to inspire today’s project.

I have used the very Vanilla card stock to make the card base, though this could easily be one of the note cards.

I started by stamping the flowers using Grapefruit Grove ink down the side and bottom edge of the card.

The sprigs were added using the same ink, but the image was stamped off on to scrap paper first to get a lighter shade.

Old Olive was used to add the leaves and stamp the sentiment on to a separate piece of card.

I have used a punch to cut out my sentiment, but this could be trimmed with scissors if this is something that you don’t have.

I chose to adhered this with dimensionals.

I hope you enjoyed this project. There is a link to this bundle and the other options available below. Just click on the image.

Thank you for Sharing

Hi Everyone,

I think I might be in love with the Share What You Love bundle.

For today’s project, I have used the Pearlized Designer Series paper as the background.

I have stamped the sentiment from the Love What You Do stamp set on to some Whisper White card stock in Old Olive ink.

Some third generation Rich Razzleberry ink was used to add the tiny flowers. The card stock was cut down using the Pretty Label punch.

The same punch was used to cut some Crumb Cake card stock. The sentiment was adhered to this.

A Pearlised Doily was adhered to the card base with dimensionals, and some Velvet ribbon was looped over the top.

The sentiment piece was then added over the top. A fee Artisan Pearls finished the card.

I hope you enjoyed this project. The items used will be listed below. Products are currently only available to purchase as part of the Early Release bundles. Just click on the images at the bottom of the post to see what is included.

Missing You #FMS335

Good Morning and Happy Friday!

Today’s card is my entry in the Freshly Made Sketch challenge.

You can see what the design team created with this week’s sketch here!

This is my project;

I have made use of some retiring products, starting with an Emerald Envy card base. To this I adhered some Lemon Lime Twist DSP from the Tutti-Frutti collection.

I die cut an oval from the Stitched Shapes Framelits.

To decorate the oval, I used the Pansy punch to cut three flowers from Sweet Sugarplum card stock. Two sets of leaves were punched from Emerald Envy card stock.

Glitter Enamel dots were added to the centres of the flowers.

Emerald Envy ink was used to stamp the sentiment from Thoughtful Banners. This was cut with the Classic Label punch and adhered with mini dimensionals.

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

I have made a layered card today.

The lovely new In Colour, Grapefruit Grove, was used to stamp images from the Love What You Do stamp set and then cut down using my trimmer.

Two pieces on Designer Series Paper were cut to 3-1/4 by 4 inches. You can use whichever designs you like – they all go together beautifully!

The first piece was adhered flat to the card.

For the second piece, I added some of the Rich Razzleberry Velvet ribbon for extra colour and texture. This was then adhered to the card with dimensionals.

The stamped topper was then added on top, with a trio of Artisan Pearls – perfectly coordinated with the suite.

I hope you enjoyed this project. The specific items used to make this card are listed below, but are currently only available in the bundles.

Precious Memories #GDP136

Good Morning,

The challenge for this week is to Case the Designer. The inspiration comes from this card from Allison.

You can see what the rest of the design team created here!

And this is my project.

I have used the Bookcase Builder stamp set to make this simple card.

The images were stamped on to 1-1/4 inch circles with Blueberry Bushell ink. These were added to 1-3/8 inch scalloped circle.

On a Very Vanilla card base, a 3-3/4 inch square of Tempting Turquoise and 3-1/2 inch Whisper White were layered together. The circles were adhered to this with dimensionals.

The sentiment was also stamped with Blueberry Bushell ink and cut to a banner. This was mounted below the topper with a strip of Tempting Turquoise card stock beneath it.

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

To Think of You – Just Add Ink #406

Hi there Everybody,

I am taking part in the Just Add Ink challenge today.

This week is a sketch challenge. The design team have made some stunning samples. You can see them here!

I went all in and made six cards in different colour ways;

Marina Mist, Always Artichoke, Perfect Plum, Tangerine Tango, Tempting Turquoise and Elegant Eggplant.

To make each circular topper, I stamped the sentiment and beaded circle from the Eastern Beauty stamp set. This was cut with a 2-1/4 inch punch.

Each card base was stamped with coordinating ink using the larger circle stamp from the set.

Black and White striped paper from the Tutti-Frutti DSP stack was cut in to 1-1/2 inch strips and then adhered at an angle.

The sentiment topper was added to the card base with dimensionals. A few black rhinestones finished the card.

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

Tutti Frutti Duo

Hi Everyone,

For today’s projects, I am using some of the retiring DSP and card stock.

Both feature the not so Tutti-Frutti side of these papers.

The first card is made with Sweet Sugarplum card stock layered with Island Indigo.

For the second version, I have used Island Indigo card stock, layered with Peekaboo Peach.

Both cards have greetings from the Picture Perfect Birthday stamp set. These were stamped with Island Indigo ink and cut using the Everyday Label punch.

Additional labels were cut from DSP and card stock. These were used as layers behind the sentiment.

Some organza ribbon was looped on to the card before adhering the topper with dimensionals. A few pearls complete the projects.

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.

A Marriage Made in Heaven

Good Morning!

Welcome to April’s InspirInk blog hop. This month Hannah chose the theme….

Weddings!

Now wedding cards are not something I make a lot of, so this one got me thinking!

I chose a sentiment first and after rummaging in my stash for something pretty, I found my Rose Wonder stamp set and dies.

Generally speaking, I try to use just one stamp set for my projects, so I planned my overall design with Rose Wonder.

It was all too tempting to use the large rose image, but I liked the small flower in the set too.

After a bit of playing about with the different elements I decided on this design. Love it!

The card base was cut and scored in the usual way with a white card layer adhered to this.

Additional coloured and white card stock layers were cut smaller still and put to one side.

On the white piece, I stamped the greeting with clear versamark ink and heat embossed with silver powder. For extra emphasis, I also stamped the heart outline from the More Than Chocolate set.

Three flowers were stamped on to the card in coordinating ink.

Three flowers and two sets of leaves were die cut. To help adhere the flowers, I punched out 1/2 inch circles in matching card. This allowed me to use a dimensional behind each of the flowers.

The white layer was added to the coloured card stock and then adhered to the preprepared card base with dimensionals.

Some extra details were added to the flowers centres using multipurpose glue. Three basic pearls completed the card.

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

Please be sure to hop around the rest if the projects by clicking “next”. Sam’s project is next!

Happy Stampin’!

Daisy Trio #FMS334

Hi there Everyone,

It’s Friday again and that means a Freshly Made Sketch challenge entry.

This sketch leaves plenty of room for interpretation. You can see what the design team made here!

Here is my entry;

I decided to keep this very simple.

Some Delightful Daisy designer series paper was adhered to a Whisper White card base.

Three daisies were stamped with Soft Sky ink. These were punched out along with an additional three plain daisies.

These were adhered together and added to the card front. A clear faceted gem was placed in the centre of each flower.

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

My World is Brighter

Hello Everyone,

I am using the Paisleys and Posies stamps and coordinating dies for today’s project.

I have chosen a neutral colour combination of Sahara Sand, Soft Sky and Crumb Cake.

The card base was built using Sahara Sand card stock and adding layers of Soft Sky and Crumb Cake card stock.

The Crumb Cake was stamped with the large dotted outline first.

The make the topper, I stamped and die cut three of the shapes from the stamp set.

The sentiment was stamped with Early Espresso ink on to Very Vanilla card stock. The sentiment and Paisley shapes were arranged on to some Soft Sky card stock.

Some extra details were added to break up the empty space using Soft Sky ink and rhinestones.

I hope you enjoyed this project. The supplies used are listed and linked below. I would love to be your demonstrator!

Sunny Day #GDP135

Good Morning!

The Global Design Project design team are helping us all get ready for Summer with some beautiful bright projects.

This is the theme for this week’s challenge. See the inspiration here!

Here is my entry for this week;

I love this card!

To make the card base I stamped the sunshine image from the Sunshine and Rainbows using first and second generation Daffodil Delight ink.

Some striped DSP from the Tutti-Frutti pack were added down the centre of the card.

The sunglasses from Pocketful of Sunshine stamp set were stamped on to scraps of each of the 2016-2018 In Colour card stocks. To get an even solid black image I used my Stamparatus tool. This allowed me to stamp each image three times.

The images were fussy cut and adhered to the card using dimensionals.

The cute little sentiment from Sunshine and Rainbows was stamped with black ink and cut with the 1-1/8 scalloped circle punch.

The “sunshine” was created by punching a Daisy from So Saffron card stock. This was then cut again using the 1-3/4 inch circle punch. This was added to the card using doubled up dimensionals.

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

Lost Without You

Hello there,

The colour inspiration for today’s card came from this bright designer series paper from the Pick a Pattern collection.

All of the supplies used today are due to retire at the end of May. You can see all the retiring products here. Don’t miss out – once they are gone, they are gone!

To make this card, I used Pink Pirouette card stock to make the base. The DSP was then added to this.

The topper was made with Pink Pirouette card stock measuring 3-1/4 inches by 5 inches.

A piece was Whisper White was cut 1/8 inch shorter and narrower. This was used to stamp on.

I have used the Blooms & Wishes stamp set. The sentiment was stamped first with black memento ink.

The flowers were added using. Flirty Flamingo, Pink Pirouette, Crushed Curry and Emerald Envy inks. First, second and third generation stamping created a softer effect using such bright and beautiful colours.

This was adhered to the Pink Pirouette card stock and then to the card with dimensionals.

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

Inspire.Create #016

Good Morning!

This week the Inspire.Create design team are celebrating the 2016-2018 In Colours that will be retiring in June.

You can see their beautiful designs here!

And here are my projects;

I have used the You Move Me stamp and die bundle – also retiring – and really love how they turned out.

The card bases were cut to 4 inches and scored at 5-7/8 inches. Whisper White card stock was adhered to the front.

Five Stitched squares were die cut from white card. These were then cut again with the decorative butterfly die and adhered to a scalloped square cut from each of the In Colour card stocks.

Five additional butterflies were cut from white card stock. The wings were shaped with a bone folder and adhered to the scalloped square topper.

The sentiment was stamped in coordinating ink at the bottom of each card. I used my grid paper to line up each one.

The topper was adhered to the card with dimensionals.

Finally, three rhinestone gems were added to each of the butterfly bodies.

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

Smooshed Heart

Good Morning,

I am trying something new today… Ink smooshing!

I prepared a card blank using Rose Red card stock.

On some watercolour paper, I stamped the striped heart from the Heart Happiness stamp set using clear Versamark ink. This was heat embossed with clear powder.

Once cool, I smooshed Rose Red ink over the top. To do this, ink was applied to a piece of plastic which was then swiped and dabbed over the project.

While this dried, I die cut hearts from black card stock and vellum. A Tailored Tag was cut from Rose Red card stock.

Some black metallic thread was adhered to the card first. The other elements were then added over the top.

The greeting is from the Window Shopping set. This was stamped with Rose Red ink and adhered with dimensionals.

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

Thanks for stopping by and Happy Stampin’!

A Little Thanks #FMS333

Hi there,

This week at Freshly Made Sketches, Narelle is challenging crafters to use circles in their designs. This is the sketch;

The design team have made some great inspiration projects. You can see them here!

This is my entry in to the challenge.

The card base is made from Marina Mist card stock. Layers of Dapper Denim and Whisper White were adhered to the front.

My circles were made by cutting Dapper Denim with a 2-1/4 inch punch. The Starburst punch was used to cut some vellum.

These were layered together and adhered to the card, one flat, the other with dimensionals.

Two flowers from the Flower Shop stamp set were stamped with Marina Mist ink and cut with the coordinating Pansy punch.

The One Big Meaning stamp set was used to stamp the greeting. I used Dapper Denim ink. This was adhered to a Classic Label punched from Dapper Denim card stock and tucked in under the embellishments.

Finally, I added some Glitter Enamel Dots to the flower centres and to embellish the background.

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

Thanks for stopping by and Happy Stampin’!

Grateful for You

Hello Everyone,

Have you seen the retiring products this year?

Almost everything to make this card us going to retire at the end of May… So if would like to replicate this design, now is the time to order before stock sells out.

The leaves from the Remarkable You stamp set were stamped with Basic Black Archival ink.

Old Olive and Daffodil Delight watercolour pencils were used to add colour to the image, which was then blended with a blender pen.

This was layered on to Chocolate Chip card stock and then on to a Wild Wasabi card base..

The sentiment was also layered on to Chocolate Chip card stock, with a piece of Old Olive mini chevron ribbon in between.

Some Old Olive glitter enamel dots finished off the card.

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

Take Heart #GDP134

Hi there Everyone,

Today I am sharing my entry for the Global Design Project. This week is a sketch challenge.

You can see what the design team created by clicking here!

This is my project.

I have used the gorgeous Sweet Sugarplum card stock as the base.

I also punched out an Everyday Label and tiny heart from the Cookie Cutter punch.

A piece of Petal Passion designer series paper was coloured with Pink Pirouette ink pad applied directly to the paper.

A one inch strip of Pink Pirouette card stock was adhered to some black card stock. This was wrapped with black bakers twine before adhering to the card.

I then added the label shape using dimensionals. A die cut heart was embellished with punched heart, then adhered with a dimensional.

Finally, I picked out a greeting from the Sunshine Sayings stamp set. This was cut with the Classic Label punch.

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

Thanks for stopping by and Happy Stampin’!
