When I showed my mother this card she was in awe of these flowers. They stamp so beautifully and look realistic. I used the stamparatus stamping tool and had not problem lining up the layers. I started with my lightest colour working towards the darkest. The stamp set is All things Fabulous and of course has matching dies to cut everything out, making super duper easy to make this card.

Woof Woof! Do you Want to be my Doggie Friend?

Woof Woof! Do you Want to be my Doggie Friend? Independent Stampin’ Up Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

I love this little doggie from the Pampered Pets stamp set. He is beyond cute.

Woof Woof! Do you Want to be my Doggie Friend? – Pampered Pets stamp set – Stampin’ Up!

I live in small close with only 6 houses. At one of the houses lives two little dogs, one of which looks just like this little fellow. They are super friendly and cute. Quite often you will find them sitting in the window and they always bark and wag their tails as you pass by. I’ve nick named them “The Yappers” They are best guard dogs as you will never get passed them.

To get back to his card, I coloured in the dog with the Stampi’ Blends alcohol markers in Smokey Slate. I love colouring in with alcohol makers as they blend so easily and don’t leave any lines from colouring.

New Home – Card Tutorial – Stampin’ Up!

Earlier this year we had new neighbours. I wanted to give them a card to welcome to their new home but found I didn’t really have an appropriate set. This set called Coming Home from the new catalogue is perfect for that.

New Home - Card Tutorial - Stampin' Up!
New Home – Card Tutorial – Stampin’ Up!

I’ve done a little bit of paper piecing here. The designer series paper (DSP) here is from the 2019-2021 in colours. They are Sea Side Spray and Rococo Rose. I’ve stamped the images on these sheets and cut them out with the matching dies. I’ve then fussy cut the rooves and stuck them on the main house images. They look rather cute I think.

Pink Zebras – Zany Zebras – Stampin’ Up!

I love these pink zebras. They are such fun, kicking up their heels and enjoying life.

Pink Zebras – Zany Zebras – Stampin’ Up!

The pink used here is my favourite pink, Melon Mambo. I love it!! It is bold and vibrant. These zebras are just too cute. As I’ve told you before my maternal family are all in South Africa. As a child went home to South Africa many times, I was lucky enough to go the Kruger National Park and see the zebras in their natural habitat. This zebras remind me of those happy times.

I am really enjoying making these monochromatic cards. They are striking and require a minimum of supplies. I made a similar card using the colour called Bermuda Bay. I will link it below.

Toadstools anyone? Walk in the Woods Card

I love the vibrant hit from the toadstools in this card. They really do make this card. I love these woodland style stamps, most probably because I love the countryside. It was one of the reasons I moved out of London.

Toadstools anyone? Walk in the Woods Card
Toadstools anyone? Walk in the Woods Card

Where we are in Lincoln is fabulous as it’s only 7 minutes drive and you are in the heart of the city and 7 minutes the other way you are entering the countryside. I love it!! Having lived in London all my life and I really appreciate how easy it is here to get out of the city. Those of you who have lived in London will know it can take over an hour just to get of London at times.

Everything here has been coloured in using the Stampin’ Blend alcohol markers. I do find colouring in so relaxing. I can spend hours playing with colour and mixing and blending it. The Stampin’ Blend alcohol markers so easy to blend and I love that they leave no lines when you colour.

Mr Mallard – Colouring with Pencils – Stampin’ Up!

I’ve always loved going to the park and watching the ducks. I think it’s so cute watching Mr Mallard chasing after Mrs Mallard or sometimes the reverse!! It is so cute watching Mrs Mallard giving swimming lessons to all the little ducklings.

Mr Mallard - Colouring with Pencils - Stampin' Up!
Mr Mallard – Colouring with Pencils – Stampin’ Up!

The male and female of the species are easy to identify as the male as this distinctive colour on his head. It is especially noticeable in the spring when they are mating. You quite often see a couple of males chasing after one female. I should be so lucky!!

I’ve used the watercolour pencils here to colour in this scene. After I started colouring I decided not to blend them with water but just used them as normal colouring pencils. I followed the same rules as colouring with alcohol markers and used the lighter colours as a base and to blend out the other colours. It was fun to do and showed there are so many ways we can use stash.

Rainbow Banners – Birthday Card – Stampin’ Up!

I absolutely love how this card turned out. The rainbow of banners are just so much fun and how doesn’t love a rainbow?

Rainbow Banners - Birthday Card - Stampin' Up!
Rainbow Banners – Birthday Card – Stampin’ Up!

This type of card is a great way to use up your scraps. I’ve done many cards based on the rainbow theme and they always are a success. These are strips of cardstock that otherwise would have gone in the recycling. The one end is punched using the new “Banners Pick a Punch” punch from the new mini catalogue.

I do love rainbows. They are so special. I don’t think there is many people that don’t stop to marvel at the glory and beauty of a rainbow in the sky. They are a natural marvel that brings a smile to your face and feels you with joy at the wonder of nature.

Measurements

  • Strips of cardstock at least 15 cm long and 1.9 cm wide in:
    • Real Red
    • Pumpkin Pie
    • Daffodil Delight
    • Granny Apple Green
    • Pacific Point
    • Gorgeous Grape

Yummy Treats – Gift Bag – Stampin’ Up!

I have this cute little gift bag to share with you today. It is perfect bag to give with some yummy treats. I have used chocolates here but you could equally have biscuits or sweets.

Yummy Treats - Gift Bag - Stampin' Up!
Yummy Treats – Gift Bag – Stampin’ Up!

The designer series paper (DSP) is the Artistry Blooms paper and I love the ombre effect. I had to raid my mother’s stash of chocolates as I don’t them. As a Type 1 Diabetic and I find it just too difficult to match my insulin to the sugar in the chocolates with it causing issues so I don’t bother. I was never a chocolate fan so it’s no great loss to me. Head the warning though, never eat chocolates or sweets found in my craft room as they will be years and years old!!!

I think a little stack of biscuits would have looked good. Unfortunately, I haven’t baked in years. I did in London but here we have a fancy oven with sorts of programmes, bottom heat, top heat, circa roasting etc… I’m not sure which to use for baking and don’t want to ruin the biscuits so sadly I haven’t tried at all.

  • Night of Navy Cardstock – 8″ X 10 1/2″, Scored at:

World of Good Adventure Card – Stampin’ Up!

The World of Good speciality designer series paper is lovely. It has brass foiling which matches are brass foiling sheets perfectly. The colours are muted and perfect for male cards as well.

World of Good Adventure Card - Stampin' Up!
World of Good Adventure Card – Stampin’ Up!

The supplies used in this card are from a suite of products. The stamp set and matching dies coordinate perfectly with the paper, embossing folder and ribbon. I love blue, it’s my favourite colour. The colour here is Misty Moonlight which I love as it’s not as deep as Night of Navy. There are two globe images in the die and stamp set, one features the Americas and the other Europe, Asia, Africa and Australia. I love that between the two, all the continents are covered.

  • Whisper White A6 Cardbase – This is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half

Fantastic Mrs Fox and Cub – Wildly Happy

I have this gorgeous fox card to share with you. As a child I loved the book “Fantastic Mr Fox” so this is my fantastic Mrs Fox and her cub.

Fantastic Mrs Fox and Cub – Wildly Happy

I love this little fox image. I stamped her memento black ink so that I could colour her in with the Stampin Blend alcohol markers. Colouring in is so therapeutic don’t you think? I can sit for hours just playing with colour. It is why I love painting so much.

The colour used here is Cajun Craze. I don’t think I’ve used this colour for a card before. Bad me!! It is a great colour and would be fabulous for autumnal cards. This little fox is from the Wildly Happy stamp set. I was so glad it carried over as it has a cute image of two little elephants. As someone of you may know my mother is from South Africa and so I’ve been to the game parks and seen them up close and personal.

Measurements

  • Cajun Craze A6 Cardbase – This is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half
  • Whisper White – 14.35cm x 10cm
  • Cajun Craze Designer Series Paper – 14.35cm x 7.5cm
