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.

New to papercraft and cardmaking? I would love to be your demonstrator!

Me to You

Hello Everyone,

For today’s post I have used the Time for Tea bundle.

I started by stamping the leaves along the left hand edge of a panel of Whisper White card stock using Smoky Slate ink. This was coloured with watercolour pencils and a blender pen.

The panel was adhered to Balmy Blue card stock and then to a white card base.

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

The tea cup was stamped and coloured as the leaves were. This was also die cut and adhered with dimensionals.

I hope you enjoyed this project.

Just Add Ink #438

Hello Everyone,

Here’s this week’s Just Add Ink challenge entry…..

Which colour would you choose?

Why not stop by the Just Add Ink blog and see what the design team have made here

I have used the Painted Harvest stamp set for my project. I added Crumb Cake to the colour combo!

This stamp set makes it so easy to create a great card.

The first floral layer was stamped off once to add some depth to the finished image.

Crumb Cake compliments the bright pink and green perfectly. This was used to stamp the sentiment and made the base of the card.

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

More #SimpleStamping

Hello Everyone,

Today’s project is about using #simplestamping to make greeting cards.

Projects like this one are even easier with Stampin’ Up!’s fantastic colour coordination across their products.

I began with a Call Me Clover card to which I added coordinating Designer Series Paper.

The sentiment was stamped onto some Whisper White card stock. The jigsaw pieces were then stamped around the edges.

A small bow of white ribbon and some sequins were added to finish the card.

Lovely Floral Wreath #GDP168

Good Morning,

This week’s Global Design Project challenge is to Case the Designer…. Sarah Berry.

The rest of the design team have made some beautiful projects which you can see here

I have used the Floral Frames bundle to create my wreath design.

To build the wreath, I first die cut 2 of the large motifs. These were adhered together and then to a white card base.

Flowers were stamped with Lovely Lipstick ink. A Wink of Stella pen was used to blend the lines adding soft colour to the flowers.

These were die cut and layered on to the card with dimensionals.

Leaves were cut from Old Olive card stock.

Finally, the sentiment from Sunshine Sayings was stamped with Old Olive ink. Some rhinestones completed the card.

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

Good Morning,

Today’s challenge from Just Add Ink is to “Just Add I”.

As always the design team have made some wonderful samples. See them here

My “I” is irredescent, sequins that is….

The design itself is simple using the Touches of Texture stamp set and Mint Macaron ink as a backdrop.

The same ink was used to stamp the sentiment which was cut with the Pretty Label Punch.

Dimensionals were used to adhere the sentiment. The sequins were then added.

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

Simple Stamping with Bermuda Bay

Hello!

And a special hello to anyone new to papercraft and Stamping.

This post demonstrates that all you need is one ink pad, one stamp set, white card and adhesive.

I usually make my card bases, but you can purchase ready made ones if you prefer.

I chose to work with Bermuda Bay ink to complement the main dragonfly image.

Stamping the image just below centre and at an angle gives the illusion of movent.

The dots were added around the edge to frame the card front.

I have snuck in some dimension by stamping the sentiment on to a strip of card and adhering it on to the card.

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

Tropical Christmas #FMS366

Hi Everyone,

Here’s my entry for the Freshly Made Sketches challenge set by Cecile.

The design team projects can be seen here

And here is my design…..

I have broken out my Tropical Chic stamp set again and added some festive flair with the colour scheme.

Real Red ink was used to add the stripes to the background.

The leaves were stamped with Call Me Clover ink and die cut. Each was curled slightly and secured with a single dimensional.

The sentiment was taken from the Timeless Tidings stamp set. I thought this looked cute lying across the card at angle, this way it does not obscure the background design.

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