I love this die that cuts these windows of paint swatches. The designer series paper (DSP) is the Fine Floral and I think it also looks like a flaming sunset. The sentiment makes me laugh as I am definitely not someone who likes to stay out late. The cutouts from the black paint swatch dies have been saved for a future card as well.

Hand-Penned – How to Make an easy Floral Card – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

I made this cute card to send to a friend who just went into hospital now in April when I’m writing this. I will have this to her by the time this goes live and wanted to share it with you.

This is the Hand-Penned suite of products from Stampin’ Up! and it is new in the new annual catalogue. If you don’t have a copy of the catalogue and want one, then just click here to request one. This suite has a glorious stamp set, matching dies and of course pretty paper. I’ve used them all on this card. It is a two-step stamp set which the Stamparatus makes a doddle to use.

I love the new colour Pale Papaya. In South Africa where my mother’s family reside we call papaya, pawpaw so you will most probably hear me refer to it like that from now on.

I love how this card turned out. These flowers are so pretty. They were super easy to create using the Stamparatus. The stamp set is Art Gallery and it’s a two-step stamping set. Check out the video below for some tips & tricks for using the Stamparatus that make two-step stamping a breeze. Bermuda is my favourite colour and even though it may not be a typical colour for a flower I think they look amazing.

There are no other words for it, this paper is simply gorgeous. It is the Fine Art Floral Designer Series Paper (DSP). The paper is busy and therefore if you did too much to it I feel it would detract from the beauty of the paper. I finished the card off with a simple white heat embossed sentiment from the accompanying stamp set, Art Gallery. It is matted on a strip of gold foil sheet for that elegant feel.

I normally struggle with shaker cards but this one was super easy to make and I was over the moon with how it turned out. How pretty is this card? These shaker mason jar domes are seriously cute. I’m definitely buying a few more packs to hoard. Everything is coloured in using the Stampin’ Blend alcohol markers. Colouring in is so therapeutic. It keeps me out of mischief for hours!!

The stamp set is Jars of Love. It comes with many different bunches of flowers and even the stems to stamp in the jar. I’ve fussy cut the flowers out and of course there is a matching mason jar punch.

I was so excited to see gilded flakes in the new mini catalogue. They are so much to play with. One world of warning is that once out of the pot they won’t go back in, they just seem to mushroom and grow. Consequently they last for ages. I put mine in a tin to keep the mess in.

There are a number of ways to use gilded flakes. In the video below I show you how to use it with heat & stick powder and versamark. You use it though with Tombow and tear & tape. I will show be doing these techniques in later videos so make sure you are subscribed to my YouTube to get alerts.

As you may know, tulips are my favourite flower. I love all the colours and various forms, even when they are going over and the petals open out, they look gorgeous. This stamp set is Timeless Tulips. It has a matching punch making it super easy to use. I have stamped some images flat and then stamped punched out others to give the card added interest and dimension.

I am really looking forward to the flower this Spring. The crocuses and some daffodils are just starting to flower and it really makes my heart sing. It gives me hope that in all this darkness of winter there is light.

We made this card in my February Virtual Card Club that I host in my Facebook group. It was so cute I wanted to share it with you too. The Hydrangea suite of products in the mini catalogue is my favourite one out of the whole catalogue. As you know I am a sucker for anything floral and this ticks all my boxes. It has lovely stamps, paper, dies and of course embellishments, what more could a girl want?

I’ve matched the colours of the die cut hydrangeas to the paper, keeping everything in blue and purple tones. I want to draw you attention to the pastel pearls. They are simply gorgeous. Please do check them out as they coming in a few colours and yes, I’ve fallen in love with them.

This is a really good size box that would be useful not only as a gift box but also as a storage box. The paper is gorgeous isn’t? It is the Flower & Field designer series paper which is a freebie I got during Sale-a-bration. There is very little wastage with this box as the belly band is made using the left over cardstock from making the base.
