How to Make a Rainbow using Soft Pastels

How to Make a Rainbow using Soft Pastels – Peaceful Moments Stamp Set – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK

Do any of you remember a series on Tv called Rainbow Brite. I had the doll and few other bits if I recall correctly. I think I also did a tapestry of her but not sure where that is now. Rainbows are magic to me. There is a scientific reason why they happen but to see one in the sky is magic.

In the new catalogue Stampin’ Up! brought out some soft pastels and I’ve been dying to play with them. They are beautifully soft and creamy. I blended them with water and then went over the image again with pastel to get a better blend. It is definitely a learning curve and I know I am going to have fun learning and playing more with these new colouring mediums.

Hello Friend – Make a Fun Card for a Special Friend

Hello Friend – Make a Fun Card for a Special Friend – Biggest Wish Stamp Set – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

I love this bright, bold and fun card. It is right up my alley. I cut two pieces of designer series paper to the same size and then cut them into triangles. Both pieces were cut at the same time so they were exactly the same size and cut in exactly the same place. The little Polished Pink gems on the sentiment look like little rivets to me holding it in place.

How to make a more 3D effect Daisy – Punches

How to make a more 3D effect Daisy – Punches – Daisy Lane – Daisy Punch – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

I love yellow daisies. They look so happy and bright. My grandmother always had a yellow daisy bush in her garden back in South Africa. She used to pick some and have them in a little vase on the table.

I’ve mad this daisy look more 3D in a number of ways. The flower is actually four daisies of two sizes that I have punched out. They have then been run through an embossing folder and curled using a bone folder.

An Idea – How to use the Sailing Home Set

An Idea – How to use the Sailing Home Set – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

The “Sailing Home” stamp set is one I’ve had for a while but hardly ever used. I think it works well in this monochromatic card. I’ve stamped off with the boats to create a less bold image. The colour is night of navy and I used a marker in the same colour to add some lines around the boats and lighthouse. The sky and sea are just sponged gently in the same colour.

How to Make a Tall Square Box with a Lid

How to Make a Tall Square Box with a Separate Lid – Well Suited – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

These are really good size gift boxes. They are super easy to make I promise you. I did struggle to see the score lines when I was filming the box on the left. Oh boy!! I couldn’t see those pesky lines for love nor money. I tilted the paper and actually marked them with my pencil off camera. Did it though. The paper is quite masculine as it is the Well Suited designer series paper (DSP). I gave it a little extra touch with the punched flowers and red rhinestones.

Beauty of Friendship – How to use this Suite

Beauty of Friendship – How to use this Suite – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

The Beauty of Friendship suite is one of the gorgeous suite of products we could preorder. The paper has quite an autumnal feel to it but this piece of paper is this beautiful blue. I was inspired by the cherry blossom I’ve been seeing all over Lincoln when I made this card. This year the blossom hasn’t lasted as long as usual but there have still been some pretty trees.

Snailed It – Cute Little Card to Say Hello

Snailed It – Cute Little Card to Say Hello – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

I love the Snail Mail suite of products from the mini catalogue. The images are fun and cute. The designer series paper (DSP) is bright and bold, very much my style.

I coloured in the smail mail and toadstools with the Stampin’ Blend alcohol markers. I used the colours in the DSP to guide my colouring. Do you still love to receive actual post as apposed to digital stuff. There is something special about receiving a card or letter through the post. Perhaps I’m old fashioned but I still love this personal touch.

Snail Mail – Make a Cute Greetings Card with Love

Snail Mail – Make a Cute Greetings Card with Love – Snailed it – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

The Snail Mail suite of products in the min catalogue is so cute. The main selling point for me was that the dies not only cut out the matching stamp set but also these dinky snails from the designer series paper (DSP). My favourite thing in the whole collection, though is this cute little envelope with the heart. It was cut with the matching dies, using up scraps of cardstock.

How to Make an Elegant Butterfly Card

How to Make an Elegant Butterfly Card – Butterfly Bijou – Butterfly Gala – Independent Stampin Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

This card out so well. I was really struggling initially and tried many different things, but nothing looked good. I then had a lightbulb moment and here we have it. What do you think?

The background designer series paper (DSP) is from “In Good Taste”. I think it makes the butterflies look like they are sunning themselves on a warm wall. The black really makes everything pop. The rhinestones on their bodies give the card that wonderful bling.
