Card Candy #2 with Stampin’ Up Two-Tone Floral

G’Day Friends,

It’s time for another Card Candy.  Thank you to everyone who visited our Channels & blog for our 1st Card Candy.  It is very much appreciated.

During May, both Robbie & myself are sharing different ways of creating Card Candy/Embellishments for your card projects.  If you are a scrapbooker, then these will suit you too as they are perfect for your pages.  Hop on over to check out what Robbie has created.

For my share, I went with the Tw0-Tone Floral Stamp Set & Dies.  It’s my first time  playing with these products but believe me, it won’t be the last.  The images are so realistic & I am loving the 2-Step Stepping which is part of the Stamp Set.

To create my card I actually went with a layout I created sometime ago but as usual it sort of went off on it’s own way.  Does that ever happen to you?

I decided to stick with the colours in the Card Candy of Blackberry Bliss, Bubble Bath, Basic White & the Moody Mauve DSP.  The colours are not what I would normally team up together but they seem to work.

It was finished off with 3 x Moody Mauve In Colour Dots.

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

Card Candy with Stampin’ Up! Petal Park

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! Go to Greetings

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!

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

Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Prints & Blending Brushes

G’Day Friends,

It’s time for a Create Weekly Sketch Layout!  This week is all about #13 which is a very easy layout but one that can be replicated in so many ways.

I also have a different way for you to save the Layouts which makes great use of the 6 x 8 Photo Albums.  Eventually they will all be converted to this way as I think it is the just another way of using our Albums.  They will also have their own page!  A video will be uploaded sometime this week showing you how to organise them but in the meantime, click on the one you would like –

  • Click on the preferred layout to download, save or print & place in a folder for future use
  • The coloured layout & the sample layout can be placed in the Album back to back if you like

 

I decided a little bit of blending would suit this layout so I went with Crumb Cake, Peacan Pie & Pretty Peacock.  Not colours I would normally put together but it is always good to get out of your comfort zone.

The lovely fern leaf is from Nature’s Prints Bundle, stamped with Pretty Peacock Ink onto Very Vanilla Cardstock prior to being die cut with the matching die from the Natural Prints Dies.  The sentiment is from the same set but stamped with Peacan Pie Ink.  To complete the card I added a small bow from Linen Thread & randomly adhered 5 x Rustic Metallic Dots to the card front.

Be sure to check out the video on how I created today’s card by clicking below.  If you have trouble viewing the video, click HERE.
