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.

measurements

  • Thick Basic White Cardbase – This is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half
  • Misty Moonlight & Polished Pink designer series paper – 14.35cm X 10cm cut into triangles from point to point diagonally.

Making a Simple Sympathy Card – Hand Penned

Making a Simple Sympathy Card – Hand Penned – Independent Stampin’ Up Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

This is a pretty card for a very sad occasion. My mother unfortunately had the need to send a sympathy card recently and this is what I came up with for her to send.

It uses the pretty Hand-Penned designer series paper (DSP) that is in the new catalogue. It has this lovely and light feel to it. Of course, there are matching stamps and dies in the suite. I love the sketchy watercolour feel. The sentiment is from an old favourite of mine “Peaceful Moments”. I am so glad it didn’t retire in May as I use it all the time. If you want to request a new catalogue just click here.

Simple and Elegant Card – Beautiful World – World of Good – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK

This is a a very simple card to make. The sentiment is so cute ” Life is a beautiful journey” and it finishes on the inside “Thank you being part of mine”. The paper is called World of Good and each sheet has brass foiling. I’ve matched it with the foiling sheet I used to mat the sentiment.

I hardly ever use Crumb Cake cardstock but is a great neutral colour which I need to start to use more don’t you think? It would be a great masculine card choice with this designer series paper. I’m trying to go out of my comfort zone and use different colour combinations.

I’ve made this style of box many times. It is a pizza style box with the lid and sides that fold over. Very simple and easy to make. Misty Moonlight is the blue colour and what a blue!! It is not too light and not dark like Night of Navy, just the perfect mix. The ribbon of course matches and it a beautifully soft cotton ribbon that makes a bow even for those of us that are bow challenged!!

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 dragonfly is from a new stamp set called “Dragonfly Garden”. It also comes with a matching punch. The designer series paper (DSP), the stamp set and punch were part of a bundle of products we could order ahead of Onstage at Home. Onstage at Home was our virtual convention that happened through the magic of computers. We used these items for the make and takes and I have been waiting for ages to share it with you.

Feeling Blue! Make a Thank You Card & Smile – Best Year – Stampin’ Up!

I’ve always loved the combination of pink and blue. I remember having two My Little Ponies, one was pink and one was blue and I always though they were perfect friends. Plaid Tidings is the paper here. I am using it all the time and why not when it it is so gorgeous. The pink in the paper is Melon Mambo and I’ve picked this up again with the mat around the sentiment.

I hope you are all keeping safe in the current conditions. As always I find that crafting is my saviour as it gives both my mind hands busy and when you are busy you can’t think. Not thinking is a bonus some days. Anyway enough of that and back to crafting.

What Better Way to Say thank you, than with Flowers

What Better Way to Say thank you, than with Flowers. Thank you card Tutorial using products from Stampin’! Up!

I love the Flowers for Every Season designer series paper (DSP) but I wanted to find a different way to use it. I went on Pinterest to look for inspiration and I saw people using banners. Hence I made this thank you card.

What Better Way to Say thank you, than with Flowers

One of my goals this year is to use the product I have. I have a tendency like a lot of crafters to hoard product and not use what I buy. I love getting new stuff, but now I get, I need to use. My strategy is not always successful but I’m getting better at it. One thing I alway buy and never use are embossing folders. The one used here is the Lace 3D folder. Isn’t pretty? I’m so pleased I pulled it out and used it. I’ve many more ideas of how to use this pretty embossing folder.

  • Misty Moonlight A6 cardbase – This is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half

Flower Box – Cute little Birthday Gift Box

Hello again, I’m back with this cute little gift box to share with you. I love the Flowers for Every Season designer series paper (DSP). It is so pretty on this cute little flower box. I’ve already bought two packs of it!!

Flower Box - Cute little Birthday Gift Box
Flower Box – Cute little Birthday Gift Box

The overriding colour here is Misty Moonlight. It is one of the new 20-22 in-colours and fast becoming a personal favourite. These boxes are super easy to make. It is my mother’s birthday next week and I think I will be using them to put a few little gifts in. We can’t go out to eat as both of us are considered clinical vulnerable and to be honest, are too scared to go to a restaurant. I want to make the day special through some handmade items though.

measurements

  • Misty Moonlight – 6 7/16″ x 6 7/16″ score at 1 1/2″ on each side
  • Flowers for Every Season – 6″ X 6″, score at 1 1/4″ on each side

I love working with this DSP and I’m so glad that I have the whole next year to make projects with it. I really want to start on my mini album using this paper. It will be to show off all the beautiful photos of the flowers in our own garden and those I see in surrounding villages on my travels.

Thank you for visiting and I hope you enjoyed this project. I would love to see your creations as well. As always there is a video tutorial and supply list below. Until next time, Keep Being Creative!!

Happy Birthday Balloon Card – Stampin’ Up!

I have this very simple card to share with you today featuring this “Happy Birthday Balloon”. This card has been stamped using markers rather than ink pads. This is a great technique and I am so excited to share it with you.

Happy Birthday Balloon Card - Stampin' Up!
Happy Birthday Balloon Card – Stampin’ Up!

This is such a fun stamp. The whole balloon including sentiment is one stamp. I’ve used the 2020-2022 in-colour Stampin’ Write Markers. There are five colours in the pack:

  • Misty Moonlight – Blue
  • Magenta Madness – Pink
  • Just Jade – Green
  • Bumblebee – Yellow
  • Cinnamon Cider – Brown

This gives you a great range of colours at a much lower price point than the stamp pads. Stamping with markers also gives you so much control over where you apply the colour. You can even have different colour flowers instead of them all being the same as I’ve done.

measurements

  • Misty Moonlight A6 Cardbase – This is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half
  • Whisper White – 14.35 x 10cm

I should say the stamp set used here is “Hooray To You”. I am going to be using it over and over again. It would look great heat embossed as well.
