To A Wild Rose

Welcome,

These flowers are from the To A Wild Rose stamp set (#149452) and is a Two-step stamp which allows you to stamp 2 images in different colours. This flower also has a 3rd image which I didn't use as I just let the Basic White card (#159228) be the background, instead of stamping a lighter 3rd colour.

The pink flower was stamped with Magenta Madness ink (#153117). The lighter colour was achieved by ‘stamping off” once onto scrap paper then stamping on the card. The purple flower was stamped with Highland Heather ink (#147103) and Gorgeous Grape (#147099). These flowers were cut with the co-ordinating Wild Rose dies (#149547).

The leaves are from the Forever Fern stamp set (#153559), stamped with Granny Apple Green ink (#147095) and cut with a Forever Flourishing Die (#152714).

The base card and card front are Basic White and I dry embossed the card front with a Meadow Moments Embossing Folder (#153126). There are 2 folders in this set and are suitable for use in the Mini Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine (#150673).

I cut the Rainbow Glimmer Paper (#153056) and the Brass Foil Sheet (#153057) with a Curvy Die (#154319).

“Congratulations” is from the Vine Design stamp set (#154488) and the die to cut this is from the Flowering Vine Dies (#154332). This was stamped with Magenta Madness ink. The pink flower and sentiment were attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

The current annual catalogue will be coming to an end on 3rd May and the retiring list will be available soon, so keep an eye out for that. I will let you know when it is available.

Have a great day and I hope you are keeping safe & dry if you are in any of the very wet areas in Australia.

Quite Curvy Bundle

Hi again,

I have been absent for a few days as I have had family here from down south and wanted to spend as much time with them as possible but I am back to “work” again.

I love the Quite Curvy Bundle (#156228) which I have used for todays card.

The leaves and birds from the Quite Curvy stamp set (#154430) were stamped with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708) on Basic White card (#159228). The leaves and birds were coloured with the following Stampin’ Blends - Granny Apple Green (#154885), Daffodil Delight (#154883), Old Olive (#154892), Poppy Parade (#154958), Pumpkin Pie (#154897), Crumb Cake (#154882), Mango Melody (#154888) and Petal Pink (#154893). The leaves and birds were cut with the Curvy Dies (#154319).

The card front was dry embossed with the Painted Texture 3D Embossing Folder (#154317). I punched the corner from the Crushed Curry DSP from the 6”x6” Regals Designer Series Paper (#153073) using the Detailed Trio Punch (#146320). This was then attached to the card front.

The sentiment is from the Butterfly Wishes stamp set (#149346) and cut with a Stitched So Sweetly Die (#151690). This was daubered around the edges with Crushed Curry ink (#147087). The leaves, birds and sentiment were all attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) and Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108). The embellishments are from the Holiday Rhinestones Basic Jewels (#150457).

The Clear Wink Of Stella Glitter Brush (#141897) was used to add sparkle to the leaves and birds.

I hope your day has been a great one!!

Garden Shed

Hello again friends,

It’s time for a masculine card, as it’s been a while since I did one. Today I have chosen the Garden Shed stamp set (#149247).

I stamped the garden shed with Soft Suede ink (#147115) onto Basic White card (#159228). I used Stampin’ Blends to colour the image. These are Granny Apple Green (#154885), Old Olive (#154892), Smokey Slate (#154904), Crumb Cake (#154882), So Saffron (#154905), Poppy Parade (#154958), Pool Party (#154894) and Ivory (#154922).

This was attached to a piece of the In Good Taste Designer Series Paper (#152494). I stamped “Happy Birthday” from Many Mates stamp set (#152633) with Soft Suede ink. The Basic White card and Soft Suede card (#119982) were cut with a Curvy Die (#154319) and attached to the cardfront. The base card is Basic White. The dragonfly was punched with the Dragonflies Punch (#154240) from Gold Foil Sheet (#132622) and I attached this to the card with Mini Glue Dots (#103683).

Hope you are having a crafty day!!

Dragonfly Garden Bundle

Hi again my stamping friends,

I love when you can mix and match a variety of products, which I have done on today’s cards.

The 2 cards are basically the same but on one I only put one piece of the white card on top of the Designer Series Paper, used a different ribbon and sentiment and used an embossing folder on one of the white pieces of card.

I cut a piece of Basic White card (#159228) with 2 of the Curvy Dies (#154319). On the 2nd card I dry embossed the white card with one of the Meadow Moments Embossing Folders (#153126).  The white card was then attached to the Berry Delightful Designer Series Paper (#157613), which is part of the free product from Sale-a-bration. This is in a bundle with the Berry Blessings stamp set. 

The DSP was attached to the Rich Razzleberry card (#119981). The ribbon on the 1st card is Silver Metallic Edge Ribbon (#144213). I coloured this with a Sponge Dauber (#133773) and Rich Razzleberry ink (#147091) before wrapping around the card. The Purple Posy ribbon from Playing With Patterns Ribbon Combo Pack (#152468) was used on the 2nd card.

Both sentiments are from the Many Mates stamp set (#152633) and stamped with Rich Razzleberry ink. I used the Stitched Nested Labels dies (#149638) to cut the sentiment and the Rich Razzleberry card under the sentiment. This was attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430),

I stamped the dragonfly from the Dragonfly Garden stamp set (#154411) using VersaMark (#102283), sprinkled with Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#109129), then heat set it with the Heat Tool (#129056). The dragonfly was coloured with Stampin’ Blends - Rich Razzleberry (#154898) and Purple Posy (#154896), then punched with the Dragonflies Punch (#154240). I also punched another butterfly from Rich Razzleberry card. This was attached to the card and the coloured dragonfly was attached on top with Stampin Dimensionals. I slightly offset the dragonflies so you could see some of the colour from the bottom dragonfly. When I attach the dragonflies I usually only have the Dimensionals under the middle of the body, so you can curve the wings up slightly and it also allows you to see the coloured dragonfly underneath.

To finish the card I added some Pearl Basic Jewels (#144219).

Berry Blessings Bundle from Sale-a-bration

Hello & Welcome,

We all love free products and Sale-a-bration is a great way to get free products (with a qualifying order.) Sale-a-bration continues till the end of February. The Berry Blessings stamp set and Berry Delightful Designer Series Paper (#157613) are free with a $180 order (in Australia). I have used these on this card.

I attached the bottom layer of DSP to the Pacific Point card (#116202).  I cut the Red & White DSP and the Pacific Point card with a die from the Curvy Dies (#154319). These were attached to the card front, then the cardfront was attached to the Basic White card (#159228).

The outline for the leaves from the Berry Blessings stamp set were stamped with Granny Apple Green ink (#147095). Then I stamped the “inside” colour also with Granny Apple Green ink but “stamped off” before stamping on the leaves, to give a lighter colour. The leaves were then fussy cut and attached to the card.

“Happy Birthday” from the Many Mates stamp set (#152633) was stamped with Pacific Point ink (#147098) and cut with a Potted Succulents Die (#154330), then attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

Have a great day!!

Poinsettia Dies

Hello my friends,

I have chosen to use subtle colours on this Christmas card using the Poinsettia Dies (#153522) to cut the flower.

As well as the Whisper White card (#106549) I have used the Gold from the Brushed Metallic 12” x 12” cardstock. I cut a piece of the white card using one of the Curvy Dies (#154319), then dry embossed the lower piece with one of the Wrapped In Texture Embossing Folders (#153574). Both pieces were then attached to the Gold Metallic card.

I cut the 4 layers of the poinsettia using the Poinsettia Dies and sponged the edges of the petals with Soft Sea Foam ink (#147102). Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) was brushed onto the petals giving a lovely glimmer. I assembled the flower with Mini Glue Dots (#103683) and then it was attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). 

The “berries” were cut with a die from the Poinsettia Dies and the leaves from the Soft Seafoam card (#147012) were cut with a die from the Curvy Dies. All were attached with Mini Glue Dots.

“Merry Christmas” is from the Curvy Christmas stamp set (#p155364). This was heat embossed with VersaMark (#102283) and Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#109129), then set with the Heat Tool (#129056). A die from the Ornate Frames (#150664) was used to cut the sentiment. Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108) were used to attach the sentiment to the card. A Gilded Gem (#152478) was attached to the centre of the poinsettia.

Have a fantastic day!!

The sentiment is from the Good Morning Magnolia stamp set (#c149298) and stamped with Magenta Madness ink (#153117). I used a Tasteful Labels Die (#152886) to cut the sentiment. The banner under the sentiment was punched with the Banners Pick A Punch (#153608).

The Woven Threads Sequins (#149498) were attached to the card with the Fine-Tip Glue Pen (#138309).

Have a great day.

Curvy Christmas

Hi everyone,

Here is a super easy Christmas card and would be a great one if you are short on time and want to make multiples.

Using the Stamparatus (#148187) would be ideal for making multiples of this card. The sentiment, trees and stars are all images from the Curvy Christmas stamp set (#155364). The trees were stamped with Shaded Spruce ink (#147088). Cherry Cobbler ink (#147083) was used to stamp the sentiment and Bumble Bee ink (#153116) for the stars. The curved border was cut with one of the Curvy Dies (#154319). The stamped Whisper White card (#106549) was attached to the Classic Christmas 6”x6” Designer Series Paper (#155969), which was then attached to the Whisper White base card.

This stamp set and dies as well as the Quite Curvy stamp set (#154430) will be available from the 3rd November.

Have a great day!!

Curvy Dies sneak peek

Hi everyone,

Here’s another sneak peek of a new set which will be available to customers in November.

The Quite Curvy Bundle (#156228) consists of the Quite Curvy stamp set (#p154430) and the Curvy Dies (#154319).

The Whisper White card (#106549) and the Soft Sea Foam card (#147012) were cut with the curved dies. There is also another die to cut all the little leaves and also emboss the card at the same time. I used this die on the Soft Sea Foam card, and also cut Daffodil Delight card (#121680), Pear Pizzaz card (#131290) and Terracotta Tile card (#150890) using the same die. 

I attached the curved cards to the base card. I removed the Soft Sea Foam leaves and replaced the leaves using the other coloured leaves. I had Adhesive Sheets (#152334) on the back of each of the coloured card to cut the extra leaves to make it easy to adhere these to the card. Alternatively you could use the Fine-Tip Glue Pen (#138309) to adhere each leaf.

The 2 little branches were cut from Pear Pizzaz card and attached to the card. I stamped the birds with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708) and coloured them with Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends (#154883). These were also cut with dies from the Curvy Dies, then attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

“Just Thinking Of You” is from the Many Mates stamp set (#152633) and stamped with Soft Sea Foam ink (#147102). The embellishments are from the Wonderful Gems (#153536).

Have a great day!!

Quite Curvy Variety Bundle

Hello,

 One big advantage of being a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator is early access to new products. I have just received the new Quite Curvy Variety Bundle (#158396) which will be available to customers from 3rd November, so couldn’t resist playing with it immediately. It’s always exciting when there’s new products to play with. This bundle includes 2 stamp sets, dies and designer series paper.

I stamped the leaves and the birds from the Quite Curvy stamp set (#154430) using Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708) onto the Whisper White base card (#106549), then cut them with dies from the Curvy Dies (#154319). These were coloured with Stampin’ Blends - Daffodil Delight (#154883), Real Red (#154899), Granny Apple Green (#154885), Crumb Cake (#154882), Pumpkin Pie (#154897), Ivory (#154922) and Old Olive (#154892).

I cut the Daffodil Delight card (#121680) and the Whisper White card with the Curvy Dies (#154319). The sentiment was also stamped with Tuxedo Black Memento ink onto the Whisper White base card, then the die cut Daffodil Delight card and Whisper White card were attached to the base. The coloured leaves and birds were attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). I added glimmer to the leaves and birds with the Clear Wink Of Stella Glitter Brush (#141897) and finished the card by adding the Pearl Basic Jewels (#144219) under the sentiment.

This is what’s available in the variety bundle -

Have a great day!!
