Thinking of Others – Make a Pretty Card – Art Gallery

Thinking of Others – Make a Pretty Card – Art Gallery – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

I love these layered flower sets. This one is called Art Gallery. I’m writing this blog a couple of days before Christmas. A friend of my mothers has gone into hospital for a knee replacement operation. I made this card to send to her and I thought I would share it with you. The epoxy clear gems in the centre of the flowers make the card pop and give it dimension.

This is a super easy card to make when you have forgotten someone’s birthday and you need a card in a hurry. The stamp set is “Happiest of Birthdays” and I love it for it’s big bold sentiments.

I’m not normally a green girl but I love his Granny Apple Green pattern here in the Artistry Blooms designer series paper (DSP). The sequins are from the came collection and just give that added bling to the card.

I love this rainbow card. I’ve used up strips of cardstock that I had in my scrap pile and just added a sentiment and some rhinestones. I love how it came out, so bright and bold. A ray of sunshine to make me smile on this gloomy cloudy days.

The colours I’ve used here are:

Real Red
Pumpkin Pie
Daffodil Delight
Granny Apple Green
Pacific Point
Highland Heather
Gorgeous Grape

The sentiment is from the set So Sentimental. I love these big and eye-catching sentiments. It pairs beautifully with the matching Stitched so Sweetly Dies.

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.

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.

Elephants – Baby Card – Wildly Happy Stamp Set

I have a baby elephants card to share with you today. This card uses the Wildly Happy stamp set I won in Prize Patrol back in April at Onstage Local in Telford. I am happy as this is a cute set featuring parents and babies.

Smokey Slate Light and Dark Stampin’ Blends are being used to colour in these elephants. They are alcohol markers and they blend beautifully. It is so easy to achieve shading and depth of interest with these markers.

These elephants speak to me as they remind me of home. I am born in the UK but my mother was born in South Africa and all my maternal family are still there. When I was younger we went to the Kruger National Park. I remember seeing the elephants crossing the road in front of our car.

Granny Apple Green Designer Series Paper (DSP) 3″ x 5″

The other images in this set are a fox, rabbits and a cute panda. They are great for many styles of cards but in particular babies.

I do enjoy colouring in whether it be with Stampin’ Blends, watercolours or even acrylic paints. It is so soothing and therapeutic.

There is a video tutorial and supply list below.
