See A Silhouette Designer Series Paper

Hi again,

If you like nice bright colours you can’t go past the See A Silhouette Designer Series Paper (#149443) which I have used for this background. This page has a look of using pigment sprinkles.

The cardstock used is Whisper White (#106549), Basic Black (#121688) and Real Red (#106578). I stamped the flourish and “thanks” from Beauty Abounds stamp set (#c148726) using Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708). The butterflies are from the Butterfly Gala stamp set (#148580). These were stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and heat embossed with Shimmer Black Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#149512), then set with the Heat Tool (#129056). The butterflies were punched with the co-ordinating Butterfly Duet punch (#148523), then attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). Red Rhinestone Basic Jewels (#146924) were added to the body of the butterfly.

Enjoy your day.

Crafting Forever

Hello,

Firstly, apologies for my absence but I have been on holidays, so after a relaxing few weeks I’m back in the craft room. Today’s card is a simple one - sometimes that’s all that is needed.

I used Real Red (#106578) for the base card and Whisper White (#106549) for the card front and the stamped image. I stamped the pens from the Crafting Forever stamp set (#c151231) using Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708), then cut it with the Stitched Rectangles Dies (#148551). This was attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). “A little note” is from the Butterfly Gala stamp set (#p148580) and I used Real Red ink (#147084). Red Rhinestones Basic Jewels (#146924) were added under the sentiment.

The Holiday catalogue is coming to an end on 2nd January, which means many of the products won’t be available after that date. There are some good deals on some of the retiring products, so check out the discounted products here , and for all other retiring products here.

Let me know if you would like any of these products before they are gone, as they are available while stocks last.

Also if you live in Australia and don’t have a demonstrator and would like the new catalogue which will be available from 3rd January, please contact me and I will send one to you. Sale-a-bration also commences on 3rd January till 31st March, which means for every $90 you spend on Stampin’ Up! products, you will receive beautiful free products.

Have a great day.

Brightly Gleaming Specialty Designer Series paper

Hello friends,

The Brightly Gleaming Specialty Designer Series Paper (#150429) has beautiful copper foil accents on one side and this design has the copper stars. There is a lovely range of designs in this pack.

I stamped “Love, Peace and Joy” with Night Of Navy ink (#147110) onto Very Vanilla card (#106550). These words are from the So Many Stars stamp set (#p150496). For the Designer Series Paper I cut a rectangle which measured 9 x 13.5cm. Then I placed a mark 4cm from the bottom left corner both horizontally and vertically. I then cut from each of these marks to the top right corner, then I attached these 2 pieces to the Very Vanilla card. The cardfront was attached to the Night Of Navy base card (#106577). The stars are cut with dies from the Stitched Stars Dies (#150653), from Copper Foil Sheet (#142020) and Night Of Navy card. The bottom star was attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) and I used a Mini Glue Dot (#103683) to attach the detailed star. A Copper Designer Elements accent (#149586) was added to the star to finish the card.

Enjoy your day.

Daisy Lane

Hello,

These beautiful daisies are from the Daisy Lane stamp set (#c149325).

The large daisy has been stamped twice with Mango Melody ink (#147093) on Mango Melody card (#147013), then punched with the co-ordinating Daisy Punch (#143713). These were assembled with Mini Glue Dots (#103683). The background was stamped with the All Wired Up background stamp (#c149262) using Smokey Slate ink (#147113). I then stamped 3 of the smaller daisies onto the card front, as well as 3 on separate Very Vanilla card (#106550) and fussy cut these. The daisies were then attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108). The leaves, also from the Daisy Lane stamp set, were stamped with Old Olive ink (#147090). “Thank You” is from the Abstract Impressions stamp set (#p147513) and I used Mango Melody ink. This was cut with a die from the Ornate Frames (#150664). The Holiday Rhinestones Basic Jewels (#150457) were used on the sentiment and the centre of the large daisy. The base card and card front are Very Vanilla.

Have a great weekend.

Pigment Sprinkles

Hi everyone,

I have just had a play with the Pigment Sprinkles (#149663). These are watercolour pigment crystals which you just mix with water. You only need to use a very small amount of crystals. There are 6 Stampin’ Up! colours which are Bermuda Bay, Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green, Gorgeous Grape, Mango Melody and Melon Mambo.

I used the Gorgeous Grape pigment. I added a small amount of crystals and mixed with water on an acrylic block, then using an Aqua Painter (#103954) to colour the Watercolour Paper (#149612). This was the attached to a piece of Basic Black card (#121688). The base card is Very Vanilla (#106550). The Very Vanilla “Thank You” was cut with the Thank You Die (#146832) and I fussy cut the Basic Black card. The butterfly was cut from the Butterfly Beauty Dies (#148536) and I added Rhinestone Basic Jewels (#144220) to the body of the butterfly. The ribbon is Black 3/8” Glittered Organdy Ribbon (#147897).

Enjoy your day.

So Many Stars Bundle

Hello,

Gold and White always looks so stunning and I love how this card turned out.

I used Whisper White card (#106549), Gold Foil Sheets (#132622) and Gold Glimmer Paper (#146958). The card front was embossed with a retired embossing folder (Softly Falling). I stamped the star and the sentiment on Whisper White card with Crushed Curry Ink (#147087). Season’s Greetings is from the Itty Bitty stamp set (#c150513) and the star is from So Many Stars stamp set. The stars and the detailed cutout were cut with the Stitched Stars Dies. I cut the detailed cutout in half and spread it apart so I could see more of it, rather than the stars covering too much of it.  The sentiment was punched with the Classic Label punch (#141491). The sentiment and Gold star were attached with Stampin Dimensionals (#104430) and the Gold glimmer star on top was attached with a Mini Glue Dot (#103683). The small solid stars come from the detailed cutout and placed onto the cardfront.

Have a fantastic day.
