Stampin' with inkybutterfly

Hi there Crafters,

The stamp set I am using today is a Hostess Set, which can be earned with a qualifying order over £150 – with so many beautiful products, there is something for everyone.

This is a two step set, combining images for a dimensional look.

I stamped the flowers first, using light and dark shades of each colour; these are listed in the supplies. Then I added the stems and leaves.

The sentiment was stamped with black ink on a 1 inch strip of Whisper White card stock. This was added to the bottom of the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I hope you enjoyed this project.

For today’s project, I am using Delightful Daisy bundle and coordinating Designer Paper.

The base card is made from Tranquil Tide card stock.

The designer paper was cut to 4 by 5 3/4. Some woven ribbon was wrapped around the paper. A knot was added at the cross point. This was then adhered to the card base.

The Daisy was stamped 4 times on to Whisper White card stock in Smoky Slate ink and then punched out and layered together. These were added to the card base with Tombow glue.

The sentiment was stamped on to a 1 inch strip of Whisper White card in Tranquil Tide ink and adhered flat to the card.

Another version of this card is shown below. This time I have used the Copper Trim, added a faceted gem and lifted the sentiment on Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I hope you have enjoyed this project.

Hello again,

The Lovely Friends stamp set has beautiful sentiments that make a statement on a card.

The card base is made from a half sheet of A4 Cherry Cobbler card stock.

On a piece of Whisper White measuring 3 3/4 by 5 3/8, the sentiments were stamped with Flirty Flamingo ink.

Also from the set, the foliage was stamped in Old Olive and Pear Pizzazz ink.

I also created this stepped up version.

All the colours and dimensions are the same, but I added an extra stamp to the background with 2nd generation Fresh Fig ink.

The small sentiment was stamped with Fresh Fig on a strip of Whisper White card which was added to the card with Dimensionals.

Hi there Crafters,

Today’s sneak peek is the Colorful Seasons stamp set… Some great images for all year round.

This card is super simple to create with minimal supplies.

On a white A2 card base, I used black ink to stamp the sentiment, I thought it looked great slightly tilted, like it was handwritten.

Three large leaves were stamped in Lemon Lime Twist. The veins were then stamped over the top in Tranquil Tide ink.

Small leaves were added by stamping off the first impression on to scrap paper first.

That’s it! Of course some being could be added too, but I wanted this to be simple … perfect for a beginner to start stamping and card making.

Supplies will be availble from 1st June.

Good Morning Everyone,

Three cute 4 by 4 cards for you today, showcasing some new dies coming to the new Stampin’ Up!  catalogue coming your way in June.

I used one of the images from the stamp set to create a grungey background with Lemon Lime Twist ink. 

The “Lovely” die was cut from Fresh Fig; this was hand cut out of the card stock leaving a border. A few pearls were added to finish.

The same stamp was used on this background in Berry Burst ink.

The “hugs” die was cut in to Whisper White card stock; then cut from the card with a Stitched Shape framelit.

This was adhered to a scalloped circle cut from Berry Burst card stock and finished with rhinestones.

A tone on tone background, (3 3/4 inch square), was created with Tranquil Tide card and ink. From this I cut the “friend” die. This was adhered to the card base with multi purpose glue.

Layering Ovals were used to create a frame. I added a copper trim bow to finish.

I hope you enjoyed these projects.

Supplies will be available from 1st June. If you would like a FREE copy of the new catalogue please contact me.

Good Morning Crafters,

I am excited to be introducing NEW products coming your way from 1st June.

There are 5 fantastic new In-Colours; you have already seen Fresh Fig and Tranquil Tide, (shown above), but now I can show you Lemon Lime Twist, Berry Burst and Powder Pink. All truly stunning colours.

There is a new Designer Paper stack in the new colours, called Fresh Florals, which I have use to make the samples you see here.

The eagle-eyed among you will also see that there is also a sneak peek at a new punch and sentiment set.

For these cards, I have cut a 4 inch strip of designer paper and cut this in to two 5 3/4 inch lengths. One piece will make this card; the other is for later. A sentiment was stamped in matching ink and punched out. I layered this on to a Stitched Oval and a Stitched square as shown. Very simple design to show off the colours.

For the second sample, I have used the opposite side of the designer paper.

The layers are cut as follows:

Coloured Card – 4 1/8 by 5 7/8

Whisper White – 4 1/2 by 6 1/4

Coloured Card – 4 5/8 by 6 3/8

Layer these together as shown, the design fits a 5 by 7 card base.

Stamp a sentiment on to a 7/8 inch strip of Whisper White card stock and cut in to a flag end banner. Adhere this with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Finish with rhinestones.

This design is easy to replicate and batch produce in every colour. Change the designer paper for a completely different look.

The supplies used are listed below – available from 1st June. If you can’t wait that long, you can join my team, become a demonstrator and enjoy all the perks of being part of Stampin’ Up! More information can be found in the menu.

Good Morning Crafters,

Following the retirement of one of my favourite stamp sets, Gorgeous Grunge, I have been experimenting with alternatives.

I have used Touches of Texture in a combination of Bermuda Bay, Island Indigo, Pacific Point and Old Olive.

The sentiment is from All Things Thanks, which was die cut with a Stitched Shape framelit. This was adhered to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals with some copper thread behind it.

I hope you enjoyed this project.

Hi there Crafter’s,

These little birds are so lovely!

To make this project I stamped the birds and branch from the Best Birds set in Archival ink. These were water coloured using Pacific Point, Real Red, Old Olive and Early Espresso.

The images were die cut with the matching framelits.

The “mesh” image from the set was stamped in the middle ofcthe card front in Crumb Cake ink.

The birds and branch wre adhered to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Finally, I stamped the sentiment with Crumb Cake ink.

I hope you enjoyed this project.

Hi Crafter’s,

A super simple share for you today using the Watercolour Wings stamp set.

Hi there Crafter’s,

Here is another card using water colour pencils and the Swirly Bird stamp set.

I wanted to use the “emboss resist” technique. I started by wiping the water colour paper with an embossing buddy. Using versamark ink, I stamped a small swirl randomly over the paper. This was embossed with clear powder.

I added water colour pencil, Bermuda Bay and Rich Razzleberry, then blended it out with a damp paint brush. Once dry, I wiped off any excess moisture with a paper towel.

I used the matching ink pads to add some splatter images from the stamp set. 

I die cut a large swirl from the coordinating die set using Bermuda Bay card stock.

Two banners were cut from white and Mint Macaron card stock, then stamped the greeting in Early Espresso ink. These were added to the bottom of the card.

I hope you enjoyed this project.

Good morning!

I am sharing a first attempt at some water colouring with Stampin’ Up! watercolour pencils.

I stamped the image with black archival ink. I added colour to the base of the petals, Real Red and Calypso Coral. With a damp paint brush, I blended out the colour. For the stem and leaves I used Old Olive.

The sentiment was stamped in Early Espresso ink.
With Timeless Textures, I added a distressed edge in Soft Suede ink.

I hope you enjoyed this project.

Hi there,

Men’s cards are so troublesome! Especially when, they detest football, fishing, trains and all other things generally found in the bloke section!

Here’s something that I thought could work well for these situations.

I have used a prescored A6 card blank. Hardwood was stamped in Soft Suede ink. Some of the lines were washed out a little with an aqua painter.

The words are stamped using Early Espresso ink, and punched using the Classic Label. These were adhered flat on to a Stitched Circle in Crumb Cake card stock.

A slightly larger circle was  cut from Whisper White. To this I added loops of linen thread. The Crumb Cake circle was then added on top of this with Stampin’ Dimensionals, and then on to the card itself.

A very simple design, but I hope you like it.

Hi there Crafters,

Unusually for me, today’s card is completely flat but still has impact.

The card base is made from Very Vanilla card stock. 

I have used three of the stamps to create the pattern, starting just above centre. 

The six pointed medallion was stamped with Dapper Denim ink.

I added the “centre” with Fresh Fig ink, then the dotted circle with Tranquil Tide ink.

The sentiment was also stamped in Tranquil Tide ink.

I hope you like this project.
