Today I’m bringing you an idea to use up your cardstock stash. I’m using up retiring colours too.
Eleven colours from the main collection are retiring. These samples use Sahara Sand, Bermuda Bay and Rick Razzleberry. The others are listed at end of this post.
The Biggest Wish stamp set makes quick, bold cards and brilliant for the guys too!
You can see how I made this card in my video tutorial….
I also used the wonderful Stamparatus tool, sadly this is also retiring and no longer available.
Exactly the same process was used for all the cards – this is Rich Razzleberry!
Here are all the other cards using Merry Merlot, Pear Pizzazz, Mango Melody, Pacific Point, Blushing Bride, So Saffron, Soft Suede and Mint Macaron!
I hope you enjoyed this project.

I’m finally inking up this stamp set today…. You can choose this as a free item during the Stampin’ Up! Sale-a-bration promotion that runs until 30th September!
This set is right up my street, simple to use background builders are always high on my list to add to my stash! Doesn’t go well with the Biggest Wish set (another favourite of mine).
You can see how I made this card in my video tutorial….
The sentiment combination was changed around in the two samples to give a different look…
The Subtles are in use with this sample which makes the black sentiment pop. The matte black dots tie the design together…
I hope you enjoyed this project.

I have chosen to work with the Beautifully Penned Designer Series Paper. This is one of the fabulous papers you can earn during Sale-a-bration! This coordinates with the Hand Penned Petals Suite in the Annual Catalogue too!
I put this with the Biggest Wish stamp set which is great versatile set for beginner cardmakers!
You can see how I made these cards in my video tutorial….
I picked out three different ribbons to compliment the cards. Of course you don’t NEED to use all three, but this shows you some options. I kept it simple by tying knots rather than bows.
Whilst the black and white, monochromatic look suits the paper, just look what happens when you introduce a coloured card base!
This is Melon Mambo….
And these are Coastal Cabana and Granny Apple Green. All are in the Brights colour family.
Here are the cards I make in my video ….
I hope you enjoyed this project.

Jill’s card is beautifully bright and cheerful. I love how the Polished Pink has been pulled through the design with the sentiment and ribbon.
The January to June Mini catalogue will retire in just over a week’s time…. And sadly this stamp set has already sold out 😦
But I still wanted to show you these cards I made with the Stamparatus tool. So if you managed to get the stamp set or you have something similar you can try this out!

The Biggest Wish stamp set lives on the desk at the moment…. I just love it!
I have used complimentary colours to make my cards. I think that these would also look good with black accents too!
And here’s a bonus card I didn’t show on my video! This combo is Shaded Spruce and Granny Apple Green.
I hope you enjoyed this project.

Jill has made this lovely bright fancy fold card with the Pansy Petals designer series paper.
I’m trying something new today with the Butterfly Brilliance stamp set.
After a team meeting, I remembered a technique from many years ago where pigment powder was brushed over versamark ink, so I thought I would give it a go with the new Soft Pastels.
There are 8 colours in the pack;
Poppy Parade
Mango Melody
Daffodil Delight
Granny Apple Green
Mossy Meadow
Coastal Cabana
Night of Navy
Gorgeous Grape
See how I made this card in my video tutorial….
You can achieve different looks by adding more of the Soft Pastel!
The bold black sentiments add impact to the card design and are emphasized by the black border created with the layering.
I hope you enjoyed this project.
