Stampin’ Up! Flowers of Friendship

G’Day Friends,

Are you ready for a little crafting?  Well, I have a little inspiration that may help you on your way.

My inspiration for my card actually came from Page 77 of the current Mini Catalogue but I took our Sketch Layout from last Sunday & used that as well.  You can see that layout by clicking HERE.  It also includes the Measurements for A4 – Metric & Imperial.  If you click the link to Robbie’s card, she will have her measurements in Letter Size.

The background has been created with our Artistic Mix Dcorative Masks & a Blending Brush.  In saying that you could easily omit this part if you wanted.

The flowers & sentiment are from the Flowers of Friendship Stamp Set, coloured with Stampin’ Blends & punched with the coordinating Flowers & Leaves Punch.

Be sure to watch the video to see how I created my card today.

Texture Chic Suite Collection by Stampin’ Up!

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.

Today’s card is one we created in a FB Live a little time ago but am only just getting around to sharing.  It is also one that was cased from Page 11 of the 2023 Sale-a-Bration Brouchure.

Sometimes we look at inspiration from our Catalogues & think we can’t recreate the projects as we don’t have the same product.  Well, let me say that you don’t need the same product as this proves that you can use what you have in your stash.

I’ve placed a Decorative Mask from the Artistic Mix Decorative Masks over a piece of Very Vanilla Cardstock prior to blending Petal Pink Ink over the top with a Blending Brush.

The Pumpkin Pie Twine is from the Three Twine Combo Pack which I think adds more interest to the whole card.  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.

Hello Ladybug & Across the Waves

G’Day Friends,

Thank you for visiting my blog today as I have something special to share with you.

Robbie from Creations in Paper & myself have teamed up to give you Across the Waves Mini Blog Hop.  Each Wednesday we will be sharing & featuring a project created with a nominated Stamp Set or Bundle.

For all of February, the fun Hello Ladybug Bundle will be the star!   It is available from the current Mini Catalogue & is such a fun Bundle .  One that I am having lots of fun with.  Have you purchased your Bundle yet?

To create my card I decided to go with the colours of Pale Papaya, So Saffron, Old Olive, Calypso Coral & Basic White.

A layer of Basic White was embossed with the Timber 3D Embossing Folder while another piece of  Basic White was created with one of the masks from the Plenty of Patterns Decorative Masks which is available from the Annual Catalogue.

The large leaf has been stamped in Old Olive Ink prior to being fussy cut.  By the way, did you know if you chop off the top part, it turns into such alovely shape heart – perect for Valentine’s Day or any day for that matter.

To complete the card I randomly adhered the a couple of the Bronze Brushed Metallic Adhesive Backed Dots to the Card Front.

Need supplies to create today’s project at home?  Don’t forget to use February’s Host Code – Y7CPFNKQ –  if your order is under $250.   All orders receive a PDF Tutorial & a Handmade Card from me.

Thank you so much for joining me today & for our very first Across the Waves Mini Blog Hop.  To check out what Robbie has created, be sure to click on the photo below.

Did you know that this is the Bundle we are using in our Online March Stamp Camp?  I can’t wait to share our projects with you.  In fact, I want to share them all with you now but shhhhhhh….  you are gonna have to wait.  I know you are going to love them as much as we do.

You have 3 Options to select for this fun Camp including 2 Add-On Classes – Flowing Flowers Stamp Set & Let’s Set Sail Bundle.

Be sure to REGISTER for this fun Camp before Monday, 7 February!

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

Tasteful Touches

G’Day stampers,

I suddenly remembered that I hadn’t shared my 2nd card from a few weeks ago using our Decorative Masks.

I find sponging one of my relaxing ways to create cards & of course, each time you will achieve a different look, especially with the Decorative Masks.  So many possibilities.

Once again, I’ve used the gorgeous Tasteful Touches Stamp Set.  It would have to be one of my favourites, although this time round I’ve gone with Rococo Rose, Smokey Slate & Petal Pink.

You can see the original card here.

I also have a video that we did live when I created this card which you are able to see below the card.

Tasteful Touches

G’Day Stampers,

Thanks so much for popping by today.  It is always very much appreciated.Tasteful-Textures---Inside

Today I thought I would share with you one of the cards I created a few weeks ago for a FB Live.  You can join us in our Stamp, Ink, Paper Live group if you wish.

I’m not sure about you but I find sponging one of the most relaxing things to do in crafting besides fussy cutting & colouring lol.  There are so many possibilities & so much you are able to do with Ink & Sponges.  Add in a Decorative Mask & well that opens another door with lots more possibilities.

To see how you to create a card with Basic Sponging, be sure to check out the PDF Tutorial over on the Technique Tutorial Page.  It is right at the bottom, #1.

I’ve used the gorgeous Tasteful Touches Stamp Set to create my card.  It would have to be one of my favourites.

Be sure to pop back in a few days, as I have another to share with you.

I received the Tasteful Touches Suite in my pre-order & hadn’t had a chance to play.  While cleaning up, I discovered the Decorative Masks so I decided “why not?”

The colours are Highland Heaher, Gorgeous Grape &  Garden Green.  In fact, I think I can see myself using these colours a lot more often.

G’Day Stampers,

Thanks for dropping by today.

I’ve been playing with our Decorative Masks in the past few weeks prepping for a Technique Class.  After creating my background, I was sort of stuck for ideas, so Pinterest to the rescue.  Thank you so much for your inspiration.  Would you believe the colours were the same as I had selected for my sponging!!!!!

I haven’t changed anything except for the sentiment which is from the Peaceful Moments Stamp Set.

Don’t forget to download the tutorial by clicking on the link below.  It includes all Measurements – imperial & metric plus a list of products used to create this card.
