Timeless Tulips – Spotlighting – Stampin’ Up!

As followers of my blog will know, my favourite flowers are Tulips. I simply adore them. When I saw this the Timeless Tulips stamp set and matching punch I knew I had to have them.

I’ve kept the colours very simple with just red and white. I love the contrast between real red and whisper white. I spotlighted the actual tulip flower in red with a black stem to highlight this.

Tulips do signify the start of Spring and warm weather to me. They are beautiful blooms even when they are dying and the petals fall open like orchids.

I felt the white background was a little bland and so I ran it the through the Basket Weave embossing folder to give it some subtle texture. I’ve not been using my embossing folder for ages so I decided I must start using them more as well.

Feels Like Frost Thank you Card – Stampin’ Up!

I can’t believe it is less than a week to Christmas. This is my last blog of this year. I will be back on the 3rd of January. I have a thank you card to share with you today featuring the Feels Like Frost Designer Series Paper – (DSP). This paper is going into hibernation at the end of this year but will be back in the Autumn / Winter Catalogue next year. YEAH!!!

This is a quick and easy card to make that can easily be made in bulk. It’s perfect therefore for your Christmas thank you cards. The Feels Like Frost DSP is so beautiful and works for any winter card, not just Christmas.

I’ve used the Holiday Rhinestones as accent pieces here. I thought they would retire at the end of December but they are carrying over and I am so excited. I love them. The Holiday Rhinestones come as one pack of various sizes and various colours. So useful!!

Pink Gift Bag – Shimmery Silver – Stampin’ Up!

Hello and thank you for visiting. I have this lovely pink gift bag to share with you today that features the Feels Like Frost silver foiled designer series paper. This is a very simple bag but it looks like a million dollars, or I think so!!

I think the melon mambo pink and silver foil DSP are a match made in heaven. This would be a perfect gift bag for a girly party, a hen night or even a silver wedding anniversary.

Tulips in Autumn – Greetings Card Tutorial

I have this simple and clean card to share with you. It features my favourite flowers, Tulips, which I love. I have therefore named it Tulips in Autumn. This stamp is from the “Winds of Change” stamp set which I have already used.

I was at the garden centre for lunch recently and the array of Tulips bulbs is mind-blowing. They come in such a fantastic range of colours, shapes and textures. Once upon a single tulip bulb sold for than craftsman’s annual salary. I love looking at all the tulips in Autumn and dreaming of their beauty in the Spring.

This card is much cheaper to make than that. I’ve stamped the tulip in memento black in and coloured it in with the Stampin’ Blends alcohol markers. The cotton real red ribbon just gives added interest to the background.

measurements

I love the combination of red and green. I don’t feel it just a Christmas colour. They are opposite sides of the colour wheel and therefore are complimentary colours.

I love floral cards and my favourite, of course, are Tulips. What are your favourite images on cards? Let me know in the comments section. I love reading your comments.

Male Thank You Card – Come Sail Away

I have a male thank you card to share with you today. This is a very simple card that uses the Come Sail Away designer series paper (DSP). I spent ages trying to think of a card to use this suite of products. In the end, I decided, that simple and easy was the best route to go. I think it turned out quite well.

The background colour in this paper is Very Vanilla as opposed to Whisper White. This gives the paper a vintage, shabby chic feel which is beautiful. I love DSP that has newsprint so this is a winner. I also think this paper would be great for a mini-album or scrapbook page. It would be perfect to document a cruise or for any with a nautical background.

We all struggle with cards for men. A card like this one really hits the spot as it’s simple and muted. I also think navy and brown are good safe colours as they are neutral.

Rainbow of Butterflies Thank you Card

I have this rainbow of butterflies card to share with you today. The stamp set is Butterfly Gala and of course, it has a matching Butterfly Duet punch. These butterflies are a great way to use up your scraps.

The Butterfly Gala stamp set has four matching sets of butterflies making this an incredibly useful set. I have stamped them in black Memento ink on the following cardstock colours: Poppy Parade, Mango Melody, Pacific Point, Granny Apple Green and Gorgeous Grape.

The rainbow effect is bold and beautiful and the card needs nothing more than a sentiment to complete it.

measurements

Whisper White – 14.35cm x 10cm

In the summer I see so many butterflies in the garden flittering around from flower to flower. They are so gorgeous and intricate in their patterns and colours. A marvel of nature.

I love using punches as they make cardmaking so simple and easy. You don’t need loads of different tools. Punches are also easy to use for children and a card like this is perfect for a child to make.

I have a video tutorial and supply list below.

Happy Tails – A Card for Dog Lovers

I have a very simple and easy doggy card to share with you using the Happy tails set from Stampin’ Up!. This set has a great matching punch. I love punches as they are so easy to use and make cardmaking so quick and easy.

Happy Tails stamp set, perfect for a dog lovers card. — “Happy Tails” stamp set, perfect for a dog lovers card.

This card is super cute with the little paw prints leading from the doggy to the sentiment. I just love it. To be frank I am more a cat person nowadays that a dog person. Saying that I still do enjoy watching the dogs running free in the park. Animals do know how to live in the moment and not worry about the future. I find that so beautiful to watch.

Daisy Lane Thank you Card Tutorial

Daisy Lane and Daisy Delight are being used here together to create this simple thank you card. Both of these stamps sets coordinate beautifully with the Daisy Punch making them even more useful.

Daisy Lane and Daisy Delight are used to create this Thank You Card

I love the fact that the Daisy punch, punches the daisies in both the Daisy Lane and Daisy Delight stamp sets. This makes them so useful to the crafter who is always looking to find more ways to use their stash.

A6 cardbase in Merry Merlot – ( A6 cardbase is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half)
Whisper White – 14.35cm x 10cm

As I have said before I do love daisies. Our daisies are still flowering beautifully here in Lincoln. We have purple, yellow and white ones in the garden. I think flowers really do brighten up the world.

The Daisy Lane stamp set is available to purchase as a bundle with the medium daisy punch at a saving of 10%.

I have stamped the daisy onto the whisper white cardstock, before layering over the punched daisy, so that when you fluff the petals up you won’t see white space underneath. The Gold Faceted Gems gives the centre of the daisy a real bling element. The mini bubbles are from the Artisan Textures set and simulate pollen blowing in the breeze.

Tulips and Windmills Thank You Card

Tulips are my favourite flower. I love this simple watercoloured thank you card using the Winds of Change stamp set from Stampin’ Up!

Tulips are gorgeous or at least I think so. I love to see the first Tulips in the shops in early Spring and bring home a bunch for the hall table. They are beautiful even when they are going on when I feel they look almost like orchids.

We also have tulips in the back garden every year. The breadth of shapes and shapes are amazing. When I loved in London we used to go every year to the Chelsea Flower Show and I have hundreds of pictures of tulips from the amazing nurseries in the Great Pavilion.

Tulips and Windmills. Thank you card using the Winds of Change stamp set from Stampin' Up! — Thank you card using the Winds of Change stamp set from Stampin’ Up!

When I first saw the Winds of Change stamp set in the catalogue I fell in love. It is my style of stamp set. I love to watercolour and actually got into paper crafting through watercolouring. I find it an easy medium to colour with and it is very forgiving of mistakes.

measurements

There are no measurements for this card except the card base which is a standard A6 card base in Balmy Blue. I stamped the image of the tulips and windmill and then cut out my piece of shimmery white cardstock depending on how I stamped and coloured the image.

I adore these little Design Elements that I have used to embellish the bottom of the card. They are metal and so versatile. They remind me of cogs in the windmill and would be great on a steampunk card.

The video is below along with the supply list.

My question for today is what is your favourite flower and why? Let me know in the comment section.

Until next time, Enjoy Being Creative!!

Thank you card Tutorial – Bird Ballard Suite

Thank you card tutorial using the Bird Ballard suite of products from Stampin’ Up!

I have another card to share with you today that features fussy cutting. Yes, its the birds again from the Bird Ballard designer series paper (DSP). I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, I love the birds on this paper.

As I write this I can hear the birds tweeting merrily away outside. I think they are happy the days of rain have stopped and that we have a dry sunny day here today. I took my mother to the Chinese supermarket in town to get some mooli which is an Indian white radish. It is also called a daikon and is eaten often in South and East Asia. Outside the shop, there is a starling’s nest that has one baby. This baby is not too clever though, bless it. It keeps flying into the shop and the mother is forever calling for it to come back out. Perhaps it’s trying to imitate us and going shopping for food instead of searching the ground for it.

This card is another quick and easy make. The focal image is just fussy cut from the Bird Ballard DSP and then a quick sentiment is stamped and the card assembled.
