Card Candy with Stampin’ Up! Petal Park

Published on by Vicky Wright2 Comments

G’Day Friends,

Today, Robbie & I have something a little bit different to share with you during May – Card Candy!  Now, I will be honest & say I said “WHAT!  How the hell am I gonna create that!” But it’s not what you think lol.    To check out what Robbie has created, click on the link.

So off to Pinterest I went to do a little homework.  After looking for quiet sometime – got a little sidetracked lol – I think I finally worked out what it is.  It’s basically handmade embellishments for papercrafting, especially Scrapbooking but we’re using the ones we create on our cards.

This is the Card Candy we created in our video.  Very off the cuff not knowing how it would turn out.  Great to recreate with only scraps of Cardstock & Paper.

To create my card, I chopped a piece of the lovely Bright & Beautiful Designer Paper into 2 pieces – you know how I love to do that – adhered it to a piece of Basic White Cardstock prior to embossing with the Painted Texture 3D Embossing Folder.

The Basic White layer was adhered to a layer of Blackberry Bliss before being adhered to a Berry Burst Base Card.

It was finished off with 5 x Brushed Metallic Dots.

Don’t forget to shoot over to Robbie’s blog to see what she has created.

Stampin’ Up! Dainty Delight Best Wishes

Published on by Vicky WrightLeave a comment

G’Day Friends,

Today I’m sharing my card from April’s challenge in our Stamp & Create FB Group.

Each month we have a bit of a colour challenge with a difference.  I give them the supplies they must use along with measurements & we go from there.

Even though the Dandy Design Designer Series Paper has retired, it is still one of my all time favourites.

The Danity Delight Bundle on the Last Chance Product List at the moment is such a great Bundle.  I love the dainity little flowers along with the sentiments in this set.

The vase has been punched from Basic White with the Vintage Bottle Punch.  A little bow was tied from the now retiring Pool Party Sheer Ribbon prior to being adhered to the neck of the bottle.

The sentiment is from the Sentimential Park Stamp Set, stamped onto Basic White with Night of Navy Ink prior to being trimmed back to size & shape & adhered to the neck of the bottle with Mini Glue Dots.

I think this card is so lovely & soft, don’t you?  I am loving the soft colours of the DSP along with all the Basic White with touches of Night of Navy.

If you live in Australia, don’t forget to use the April Host Code – PUMG4PEB – if your order is under $250.  Valid from 1 – 30 April 2023.

Stampin’ Up! Decorative Masks & Nature’s Prints

Published on by Vicky WrightLeave a comment

G’Day Friends,

Thank you so much for dropping by today.

Can you believe this is our last share for April hightlighting just a couple of the fun ways you can add a Colouring Technique to your projects?  Throughout April, Robbie & myself have been sharing a couple of our favourite colouring techniques each Sunday.  I sure hope you have enjoyed them.  I know we have.

Well today I didn’t know what to do so I pulled out my Decorative Masks & Blending Brushes BUT I wanted to play with an idea I’ve had forming in my mind all week.  I wasn’t too sure how it was going to turn out but I think I am happy with the final result, but I’ll let you be the judge of that.

Oh my it is so lovely that Pretty Peacock is returning.  I had forgotten what a WOW it was!  You are going to LOVE Bubble Bath too.  I know it will fast become one of my favourites.

If you haven’t played with the Decorative Masks, why not give them ago.  You will surprise yourselves.  Play, play, play & then create a project with all that playing you’ve done.  Go on, I dare you!

Be sure to pop over to check out what Robbie has created, by clicking HERE.

When I do my lives, instead of creating 2 or 3 cards the same I like to create 1 live & then share a 2nd version & step you through it on how it was created & the colours that weere used.

A Decorative Mask from the Artistic Mix Decorative Masks was placed over a piece of Very Vanilla Cardstock prior to blending Fresh Freesia Ink over the top with a Blending Brush.

The colours used on today’s card are Mint Macaron, Very Vanilla & Smokey Slate Cardstock.  The Garden Green Twine is from the Three Twine Combo Pack.

 Once again, the flowers were fussy cut fom a piece of the Favored Flowers DSP before being adhered onto a Vellum die cut circle with Stampin’ Dimensionals The Vellum circle was then adhered to the card front with Adhesive.
