Stampin’ Up! Layering Leaves for Night Angels Global Video Hop

Published on October 28, 2023October 23, 2023 by Vicky WrightLeave a comment

G’Day Friends,

I don’t usually post on a Saturday but I thought I would try & start a new Saturday Share for me.

Today’s share is all about the Night Angels Global Video Hop. It’s a group of Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators from all over the world that have gotten together to bring you a monthly Global Video Hop. We have a different theme each month.

Our theme this month is all about Thank You. These little words can be mighty powerful. I think it’s always a great idea to pop a few into the postbox to send off to our customers, friends, etc or even pop them into your neighbours letterboxes from time to time.

I’ve used the gorgeous All About Autumn DSP for my card. I am loving the Foil side of this DSP – perfect for all occasions.

i will admit, the card isn’t what I started out to create but I am happy with the end result. What about that little flower popping up there on the label shape? Don’t you think it adds to the card?

I’ve used the following products on my card –

Stamp Set – Layering Leaves
Inks – Moody Mauve, Pretty Peacock
Cardstock – Very Vanilla, Moody Mauve
DSP – All About Autumn 6 x 6
Punch – Bough, Petal Park Builder
Dies – Something Fancy

Stampin’ Up! Sea Turtle Colour Combination 3

Published on October 26, 2023October 26, 2023 by Vicky WrightLeave a comment

G’Day Friends,

Can you believe this is our last day for sharing inspiration with you for our Colour Combination this week? Now, where did that time go?

Don’t forget to pop on over to see what Robbie has created with these colours by clicking on the link.

Night of Night & Coastal Cabana shout Ocean to me. So along with Grey Granite that can be the colour of water washed logs fits in perfectly. It is one of the reasons why I decided to go with the cute little Sea Turtle Stamp Set.

In actual fact, we had one beach itself last week. It was huge & looked very healthy from the outside but you can never tell what is going on in the inside. We hung around until the Turtle Rescue mob arrived. They are going to let me know when it will be released so that should be exciting to see.

This set is “Reversible” which means that one side is solid while the other is the actual stamp. I haven’t used the soild/backround images. I’ve only stamped the outline images.

The card is very clean & simple but I think it suits the card as I wanted the Turtle to be the star of the show.

If you would like Card Template #3 along with the PDF Tutorial, it is now available in my Tutorials & Kits for Sale Page.

Stampin’ Up! Petal Park Colour Combination 2

Published on October 24, 2023October 24, 2023 by Vicky WrightLeave a comment

G’Day Friends,

It’s time to share with you a little more inspiration for this week’s Colour Combination of Night of Navy, Grey Granite & Coastal Cabana. The more I play with these colours, the more I am liking them.

Be sure to check out what Robbie has created with these colours by clicking on the link.

I decided to use a piece of the Coastal Cabana DSP from the Brights 6 x 6 DSP Pack. Although, I did have a little panic as I thought I had used it all but lucky for me, up popped 1 last piece.

I then decided to try & layer 2 circles – Grey Granite has been die cut with the Deckled Circles Dies while the Basic White was punched with the 2 3/8″ Circle Punch. The border of Grey Ganite showing is very narrow but I am like just the hint of colour behind the Basic White circle.

I love the Grey Granite leave along with the Night of Navy & Coastal Cabana flowers! what do you think?

It was finished with by adding Basic Rhinestones to the centres of the flowers & then randomly scattered around the card front.

July Inspirations in Ink Blog Hop

Published on July 26, 2023July 26, 2023 by Vicky Wright6 Comments

G’Day Friends,

Welcome to our July Inspirations in Ink Blog Hop. Thank you for dropping by.

This month our focus is all about the lovely Inked & Tiled Bundle which is Page 94 of the Annual Catalogue.

You may be starting with me – Vicky Wright, Australia – or you may have come from another blog. Either way, I hope you enjoy our projects we have to share with you today.

I’ve kept my card fairly simple today as I wanted the focus to be on the stamp from the Inked & Tiled Stamp Set. Isn’t it just gorgeous?

To create my card, a piece of the Inked Botanicals DSP was adhered to a Thick Very Vanilla Base Card. The image has been coloured with Stampin’ Write Markers. The stem & leaves are Lost Lagoon while the flowers are Calypso Coral.

The sentiment is from the same set & stamped direct onto Very Vanilla with Lost Lagoon Ink. It was die cut with the Stylish Shapes Dies. To break the tone on tone, a small stitched Lost Lagoon banner was die cut with the Stylish Shapes Dies prior to being adhered behind the Very Vanilla circle & popped up with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

To finish it off, a couple of Basic Pearls, which I haven’t used for so long were randomly adhered to the stamped panel. A small bow was tied with a piece of Linen Thread & adhered to the stem with a Mini Glue Dot.

I do hope you have enjoyed my project today. Thanks again for dropping by.

As this is a blog hop, don’t forget to hop along by clicking on the links below. I’m sure you’ll find lots of inspiration for this great Bundle or Stamp Set.
