Strips – Using Your Scraps – Stampin’ Up!

I love being able to use up my scraps. This card uses strips of patterned paper cut at wonky angles to create this great card. A great sentiment is all you need to finish off this card.

This paper is the Flowers for Every Season Designer Series Paper (DSP). It is so pretty and I really enjoying using it time and time again. I’ve started to plan my mini album with this DSP to hold all my summer flower pictures from our own garden and all the surrounding villages.

I’ve long made cards using scraps but my upline Amanda Fowler showed me this technique using wonky cut pieces of paper and leaving gaps between each strip. It is quiet effective don’t you think?

I love driving around in the summer and seeing all the pretty gardens. The village of Nettleham, about 10 minutes from us is especially pretty. The local garden nursery sponsors hanging baskets outside various establishments and they always look amazing.

Thank you for coming by. I hope you enjoyed this card. The supply list and video tutorial are below. Until next time Enjoy Being Creative.

Doggy Curvy Keepsake Box – Stampin’ Up!

I’ve this super cute doggy curvy keepsake box. I’ve not used the mini curvy keepsake box much and decided this was the perfect time for it’s revival.

I love how this has turned out. The little doggie image is from the Playful Pets Designer Series Paper. It matches the Pets dies which not only cut out a cat and dog image from the DSP but of course the matching stamp set. How cool is that!!

Here is the cat version of the box. I am more a cat person that a dog person but do love both. In regards these cute boxes I do prefer how the dog one turned out. Which do you prefer?

The curvy keepsake box is made from half a sheet of A4 cardstock. The colour I’ve used here is real red as it matches the colour in the Playful Pets DSP. These boxes are so dinky and they would be perfect to hold a little gift. I was thinking of a little dog or cat charm to add to a charm bracelet for a special someone.

Roses – To a Wild Rose – Stampin’ Up!

Thank you for visiting. I have this beautiful floral card to share with you to featuring the To a Wild Rose stamp set. I have to say that unlike a lot of people roses aren’t my favourite flowers. It’s because I think, many are scented and they just give me hayfever. Having said that I still like them and admire them but they can’t surpass my tulips.

This stamp set is an older one and has been sitting in my stash for a while, never being used so I decided to bite the bullet as they say and use it. It is a layering stamps so works great with the stamparatus and makes the layering super easy. I decided to do the outline in black so that the colour would tie in with the sentiment.

The colours used for the flower are Petal Pink and Flirty Flamingo. I double stamped the colour at times to give a deeper hue. The leaves are Pear Pizzazz and Old Olive.

In-Colours Thank You Card – Stampin’ Up!

I have a simple card to share with you today. It is an in-colours thank you card. It features Misty Moonlight and Magenta Madness. I think these are my two favourite new colours. I love them and plan to use them again and again.

I think these two colours go so well together. The white also makes them pop. I am really loving the new patterns in the in-colour designer series paper. They are so fun. The strip of blue on the left hand side is actually Misty Moonlight ribbon. It is a gorgeous cotton type ribbon, beautifully soft and easy to tie into a bow, even for an idiot like me.

Just a Note – Butterly Gala – Stampin’ Up!

This is a simple card when you just what to send just a note to someone. I love how these bright butterflies look on the woodgrain background. I’ve stamped on coloured cardstock which is in itself unusual for me but I like the effect.

This card features two in-colours, Magenta Madness and Just Jade. I’ve used rhinestones to give the butterflies some sparkly bodies. I’ve done a previous card using these butterflies to make a rainbow effect. They stamp beautifully and of course, they have a coordinating punch.

Sunflowers Galore – Stampin’ Up! Celebration Card

I am so excited. This is my first blog post of the new Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalogue. I’ve been blogging for a year now. Can you believe it? When I saw this Sunflowers stamp in the new catty I knew it was coming home with me. I was so excited to see in the preorder. It was the first thing in my basket. I hope you liked it as much as me. So here is my Sunflowers Galore Card.

I love watching cycling. Normally I would start to be looking forward to the Tour de France which would have started in July. It has been postponed and may happen in the Autumn now. One of the great things about the Tour is all the wonderful scenery around France including the massive fields of sunflowers. This is my homage to those fields.

This stamp set comes with two sizes of sunflowers, leaves and sentiments so is a really useful set. I’ve only used the one size here but plan to use this set lots more. It is part of a suite of products so there is coordinating designer series paper and memory and more cards.

Bright and Fun Thank You Card – See a Silhouette

I love how bright and fun this card is. I’ve had this designer series paper (DSP) for ages and only used it once before. I am sad as it really is a lovely bold paper that is great for layering or adding that pop of colour to a project.

The sentiment on this card is from the stamp set So Sentimental and I love it. This stamp set is continuing and I am so pleased. I love sets that have big bold greetings as they make for easy and bold cards.

What types of cards are you finding you are making at the moment? I am doing a lot of thank you cards to hand out to people as I think it makes such a difference just to stay thank you for all the hard work people are doing.
