occasions 2019 – Stampin' with inkybutterfly

Very Simple Valentine

Good Morning,

Isn’t this a cute card. It is so easy to make!

For the base, a piece of All My Love DSP was adhered to Soft Sea Foam card stock.

Some Polka Dot Tulle was wrapped across the middle before adding to a white case base.

The sentiment was stamped with Flirty Flamingo ink and cut with a circle punch. This was layered with circles cut from vellum and Soft Sea Foam card stock. Finally, this was adhered to the card with dimensionals.

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

Spring Summer Card Swap

Hello Everyone,

With each new catalogue there are more wonderful products to choose for your paper craft projects.

To share some inspiration, some of us demonstrators do a card swap.

These aren’t exactly the same as the ones I sent, I forgot to take photos of those…. So I remade them with 2018 in colours, the originals were in 2017 in colours.

The Stamping is all done using the Beauty Abounds set… I love those bokeh dots.

I thought the sentiment was fitting too as we are all friends in the Stampin’ Up! community.

I added the butterflies using the Butterfly Duet punch and adhered them with a glue dot.

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.

Pootlers Spring Summer Blog Hop

Hello Everyone!

Today I am blog hopping with team mates showcasing the products from the Spring / Summer catalogue.

If you’ve not decided what to buy or need ideas for projects, this is the hop you need.

At the bottom of this post is a link to the other entries… Please do check them out!

I have resisted using this gorgeous stamp set especially for this hop. It’s called Wonderful Romance. I have also incorporated the stunning Speciality Designer Series Paper, this particular sheet is actually printed on to Vellum!

The main image was stamped in Stazon Ink. An aqua painter was used to watercolour the image, once dry this was die cut.

Dimensionals were used to adhere the die cut to the card base.

The sentiment was stamped with Shaded Spruce Ink, punched & mounted on to the lovely oval die cut from the same bundle.

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

Butterfly Gala

Hello Everyone,

This is Butterfly Gala…. A gorgeous new stamp set coming to you soon.

Each image can be stamped and coloured in many different ways, and no need to fussy cut…. There is a matching punch!

I chose to use Pineapple Punch and Grapefruit Grove. I applied the ink to the stamped images with a sponge dauber.

The rest of the card I kept black & white. I love this bold sentiment.

Beauty Abounds

Good Morning,

Today’s card features the new Beauty Abounds stamp set coming to you in January….. I just love the butterflies and bokeh dots.

I began by stamping the dots with Balmy Blue ink on a 3 by 4-3/4 inch panel of Whisper White card stock. These stamps were inked using a sponge dauber to ensure the detail of the image was maintained.

Three butterflies were added with 2nd generation Blueberry Bushel ink.

The panel was mounted on to Blueberry Bushel card stock. This was then adhered to a card base with dimensionals.

The same ink was used to stamp the sentiment. This was added with snail adhesive with the ends overlapping the edge of the topper panel.

I hope you enjoyed this project.

The supplies used are listed and linked to the online store below. (Some products will be available in January 2019).

Bloom by Bloom #GDP170

Hello Everyone,

Given the festive season, I am sharing my Global Design Project challenge entry with you today.

This week is a sketch challenge. The design team projects can be seen here

I have used the Happiness Blooms suite for my card.

I stamped the flower with Grapefruit Grove and Call Me Clover inks and adhered this to some coordinating Designer Series Paper.

A Lovely Lipstick card base was prepared by stamping “hooray” along the right hand edge.

The stamped panel was added to the card. “Congratulations” was added below it.

A strip of Blueberry Bushel card was adhered with five Pineapple Punch flowers.

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

Forever Lovely

Here’s another sneek peek at a new & upcoming bundle. It’s called Forever Lovely and is lovely!

The three roses were adhered with dimensionals over the edge of the Crumb Cake layer.

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.
