Texture Chic Suite Collection by Stampin’ Up!

Published on by Vicky WrightLeave a comment

G’Day Friends,

I thought I would share with you another card I created using the sketch Layout from Week 1 of Caseing the Mini Catalogue with Robbie.

This Sketch Layout was taken from Page 12 of the January-April Mini Catalogue.

You can see the original project, measurements – imperial & metric – by clicking HERE.

I created this card for the female.  The original was created for the males.

The DSP layer was adhered to a piece of Basic White Cardstock prior to being adhered to a Petal Pink Base Card.

To create the background on the Basic White panel, I used one of the masks from the Artistic Mix Decorative Masks, Petal Pink Ink & a Blending Brush.  I am loving the soft effect, don’t you?

Look at the lovely rich Gold Distressed Paper!  It goes so well with the whole Collection.

The shells are from the Season of Chic Stamp Set, stamped onto Very Vanilla Cardstock with Soft Suede & Pool Party Inks prior to die cutting with the die from the Chic Dies.  The sentiment is from the same Stamp Set & stamped with Soft Suede Ink.

Here is a video on how the original card was created.

Seaside Bay Bundle Focus Online Class – W3

Published on by Vicky WrightLeave a comment

G’Day Friends,

Week 3 of our Seaside Bay Bundle Focus Online class is now up & running.

Each week, we step our cards up a little which means they are perfect for the Beginner Stamper right through to the Advanced Stamper.

This week’s card is the perfect layout for showcasing the gorgeous By the Bay Designer Series Paper.  We can never have enough of this gorgeous paper.

Don’t forget there are only 4 kits of this card available.  Get in quick as they are going very fast.  Click on this link to shop in my Online Store.  The offer for this kit ends today, Monday, 20 February 2023.

See  the background behind the bird?  It’s from one of the pieces of DSP.  All I did was die cut it into a circle shape, created a Night of Navy frame & popped it up in the middle.  Easy peasy hey!

Be sure to check out the video to see how I created my card.

Country Floral Lane DSP by Stampin’ Up!

Published on by Vicky WrightLeave a comment

G’Day Friends,

Thanks so much for dropping by today.  It is very much appreciated.

It’s time for Week 3 of Caseing the Mini Catalogue!  Today’s Sketch Layout has been taken from Page 54 of the January-April Mini Catalogue.

Now, neither Robbie or myself know what the other is using on their project as all we have is the Sketch Layout we have created to match the card we are caseing.

If you use Letter size, then head over to Robbie’s Blog to grab her measurements – bearing in mind, they may be a completely style card to mine – while here I will have the Letter Size – Metric & Imperial – for my project.

To download your preferred layout, all you have to do is click on the images, save to your PC or print on A5 paper & save in your Sketch Layout Folder to use over & over again.

Now, I will admit that my card today is totally different to what I was actually going to create but hey that can happen, right?

I’ve gone for the lovely Country Floral Lane DSP along with the Real Red & Burlap Ribbon Combo & the Pastel Adhesive-Backed Sequins to use on my card.  The Base Card is Sweet Sorbet while the layer of Crumb Cake is not on the list of colours, it does blend nicely.

Be sure to watch the video to find out!

I hope you have enjoyed my take on our Sketch Layout for Week 3.  Be sure to visit Robbie’s blog to find out what she created from the Sketch.

To see Week 1, be sure to click HERE.  To check out Week 2, click HERE.

Don’t forget to join us again next Sunday for another fun Case from the Mini Catalogue.

Each week, we step our cards up a little which means they are perfect for the Beginner Stamper right through to the Advanced Stamper.

I love that we can showcase our gorgeous papers in so many ways including this one.  Change it out a little or a lot by creating with different papers, images & dies.

The label shape is from the Painted Labels Dies.  Perfect for all occasions!
