Stampin’ Up! In Colours Inspirations in Ink Blog Hop

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.

Stampin’ Up! Decorative Masks & Nature’s Prints

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!

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

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.

Stampin’ Up! Dainty Delight with Re-Inkers

G’Day Friends,

Thank you so much for dropping by today.

Welcome to Week 3 of sharing a Colouring Technique.  Throughout April, Robbie & myself are sharing a couple of our favourite colouring techniques each Sunday.

As our Simply Stamping Class this month was all about Stampin’ Spritzers, I decided to share with you a bonus card I created when designing our cards for this class.  The PDF Tutorial will be available for purchase later on in the week over on my PDF Tutorials for Page.

I’m loving the Rich Razzleberry & Fresh Freesia, don’t you?  I’ll be sad to see Rich Razzleberry go but happy that Fresh Freesia is staying around.  I love these 2 colours together but no doubt, I will find something else that blends in nicely.

Check out all that shimmer?  Isn’t it lovely?  Don’t you just love that background?  If you haven’t purchased any Glimmer Paper, be sure to do so, as it’s retiring too.

An easy & simple way to create lots of pretty backgrounds for your cards or even scrapbook pages.  Why not give it a go & see what colour combinations you can come up with.

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

Demonstrator Training Program Blog Hop – April 2023

G’Day Friends,

Thank you so much for joining me today.  I’m once again joining Kylie & Bruno’s  Stampin’ Up!® Demonstrator Monthly Training Blog Hop.

You may be starting here – Vicky Wright – or have come from another blog – either way you can find the Blog Roll at the bottom of this post.  By clicking on the links, you are sure not to miss out on lots of inspiration for your next project.

I’ve been playing with Colouring Techniques this month & thought I would continue with the gorgeous Soft Pastels Assortments for my Thank You cards this month.

If you haven’t played with thsese little devils, do yourself a favour, dig them out & start playing.  They are truely lovely with the end result being a complete surprise.

The paper is from the Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper which I teamed up with the Forever Fern Stamp Set.  I’ve coloured the leaves with the Night of Navy Pastel & a cotton bud.  I’m really happy with the final result.

The card was finished off with a little White Baker’s Twine bow & a couple of the Glossy Dots Assortments.  The sentiment was stamped onto scrap Basic White Cardstock with Night of Navy Ink before before being cut into shape & adhered to the right of the panel.

As mentioned previously this is a blog hop, so be sure to check out all the inspirations on today’s hop by clicking on the links below.  Don’t forget to leave a little love too as I’m sure the would appreciate it.
