The Linked Together stencils are layering stencils. Five stencils layer together to create lovely backgrounds. This time, I’ve actually only used one layer. You don’t always need to use all the layers. This is a simple and stunning design and I love it. The above image is in Berry Burst and the one below is Pretty Peacock. Which do you prefer?

This is a fun way to use up your scraps. I stuck the strips at various angles to create my own patterned paper. The scraps are all from the same paper collection, so the colours match. The paper is called Toadstool Gardens. It is a freebie during sale-a-bration. I love getting freebies, don’t you?

I enjoy making little gift boxes and bags. They are bespoke and a wonderful way to make a gift extra special. This box is pizza style box. I haven’t made one for a while so I thought I would revisit it with you today. The paper is the Perennial Lavender designer series paper (DSP) and matches the lavender card I shared a few days ago.

I love to make my own Christmas decor. Do you? I’ve had these wooden baubles in my stash for years. Each year I take a few out to decorate. This year I’ve used the Snowy Wonder stamp set. I love all the cute images in this set. They are perfect to creat a wintery scene.

I stamped in a permanent ink and coloured in using the Stampin’ Write markers. The rhinestones in the centre of the snowflakes bring the whole design to life.

Two shades of blue were used in this card, Boho Blue and Pool Party. In both cases, I’ve used second and even third-generation stamping to achieve a muted softer look. The addition of the rhinestones in the centre of the snowflakes brings the whole design together.

I first made one of these teabag holders when I joined Stampin’ Up! That was over 12 years ago. Can you believe it? Time flies. These are easy to make from one sheet of 6″ X 6″ of paper or cardstock. I’ve chosen some nice herbal teas to do in them. I think these holders would be great as a little gift or as part of a hamper to give to someone special.

As some of you know I design my cards weeks ahead of them going “live” on my blog. I was watching the Chelsea Flower Show and as you may know, my maternal family is from South Africa. The South African stand got a Gold Medal and Best Stand in the Great Pavilion. This was the inspiration behind this card.

I’ve used this set previously to make a few cards. I decided to step it up with this card and use heat embossing alongside the ink blending. All the stamping is heat embossed with silver embossing powder. It will resist the ink blending, leaving the silver metallic lines.

I’ve coloured this card using the matching stencils. This gives these florals this lovely shading.
