Stampin’ Up! Go to Greetings

Published on by Vicky Wright

G’Day Friends,

I hope you’ve been enjoying our Colouring Techniques, Robbie & myself have been sharing throughout the month of April.

Today is our last share for our Colouring Techniques!  I sure hope you have enjoyed them.  This is one of my favourite techniques so I was happy to share just a couple with you.   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.  Click HERE to check out what Robbie has shared with us.

I’ve gone completely left field for my technique today – way out of my comfort zone both with the technique & colours.  Although that can be a good thing, right?

Check out those bright colours of Daffodil Delight, Lemon Lime Twist & Berry Burst!  Don’t you just love them on this pallette?  Lemon Lime Twist & Berry Burst are 2 returning colours which I know many people are so excited about.

Be sure to have ago at this fun technique.  I know you will enjoy it as much as I have.  The beauty of it is you won’t know what it will turn out like & no 2 will be the same!

Stampin’ Up! In Colours Inspirations in Ink Blog Hop

Published on by Vicky Wright3 Comments

G’Day Friends,

Welcome to our Inspirations in Ink Blog Hop for April.

This month our focus is on the new 2023-2025 In Colours.  They are rich, they are regal & you will love them!  Oh wait, there’s more!  We’re teaming the colours with a carrying over Stamp Set which in my case is the Sentimental Park Stamp Set.  The more I play with this set, the more I am loving it.

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.

As usual when I start playing with a new set, bundle, colour, etc I tend to go simple & easy.   Oh hell, all my cards are that anyway lol.  I find that doing it this way, I get the feel for the product & ideas & inspiration will start popping into my head.  I also stuck to the 1 colour & that was Moody Mauve.

Check out that lovely Granny Apple Green stem.  Isn’t it striking & don’t you think it brings the card to life?  I wasn’t too sure, but I think it works now.

The Textured Ribbon is just gorgeous & beautiful to work with.  To highlight it more, it’s been adhered to a piece of Basic White Cardstock with just a little of the Basic White poking out along the top & bottom.

Create Weekly Sketch Layout with Stampin’ Up! Forever Fern Stamp Set

Published on by Vicky WrightLeave a comment

G’Day Friends,

It’s been a little while since our last Create weekly Sketch Layout, so I thought we would try & get them going again.  I love creating from a layout as its a great starting point, especially if you have in a bit of a slump.

Now, the gorgeous Forever Fern Stamp Set is on the Retiring List & will be the first to admit that I will miss it, but no doubt, give me a month & I’ll have a favourite to replace it lol.  If you have this set on your Wish List, grab it while you can as once it’s gone, it’s gone.

Don’t you love how pretty these 2 colours of Shaded Spruce & Parakeet Party work so well together?  I wasn’t too sure how they would go but I am loving the combination.  I also think the Shaded Spruce brings out the yellow in the Parakeet Party too.

Grab your supplies to create your own version of the layout.  Don’t forget to share your creation on my FB Page or in our Stamp & Create FB Group.  We would love to see them.

Check out the video created showing you how easy it is to create from a Sketch Layout to make your card.  If you have trouble viewing it, click HERE to watch it.
