A Special Card for Mother’s Day – Hydrangea Hills

A Special Card for Mother’s Day – Hydrangea Hills Designer Series Paper – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

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.

Making a Simple Sympathy Card

Making a Simple Sympathy Card using the Heal Your Heart stamp set. Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

Recently, sadly I needed to make a sympathy card. I decided to share this with you in case you are in the same situation. I was unsure how to go about designing such a card, so I went for simple and easy. The stamp set is actually one I just acquired during Sale-a-bration. I didn’t think I would use it, but there you go. The designer series paper (DSP) is Paper Blooms which is absolutely gorgeous. It gives the perfect backdrop to the sentiment.

How to Make a Fun Zany Zebras Birthday Card

How to Make a Fun Zany Zebras Birthday Card – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

I absolutely love these cute little zebras. Aren’t they having a wonderful party? I want to join in. This would make a great card for that friend who loves to party. I’ve used the in-colour enamel dots to give this card some pops of colour. To me they look like confetti being thrown up in the air.

How to Make a Square Fold Flat Gift Box

How to Make a Square Fold Flat Gift Box – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

This little gift box measures 2″ square. It folds flat as it’s not sealed on the bottom but just tucks in, instead. As it folds flat is stores very easily and you make a few of these for all occasions. The designer series paper is called Paper Blooms. It’s another free item you can earn during sale-a-bration.

Up in the Clouds – Stampin’ Up! – Card Tutorial

Sometimes I think, wouldn’t it be wonderful to be able to fly, to be up in the clouds and free from all the worries down on earth. It is nice thought but not really possible. I made a card with hot air balloon instead to compensate. I hope you like it.

The stamp set here is called Above the Clouds and has the matching hot air balloon punch. Unfortunately, this set is retiring on 2nd June 2020. If you like it then please get it now before it sells out. You can view the full retirement offering on in my shop.

I love all the blues in this card. They are Night of Navy and Seaside Spray. Thankfully we are losing neither this year. I have used the Stampin’ Blends to colour everything in. You may notice the blends are on the retirement list but don’t worry they aren’t going away. Instead of selling them singularly we are only going to sell the duo pack. This means you can get perfect shading everytime.

The retirement list went live on 22nd April. As always I am excited to see the new catalogue but sad to see some old favourites retiring. I’ve marked out all my retired items in my catalogue and will be pulling them from my shelves to make space for new goodies.

Flying Balloons – Under Umbrella – Stampin’ Up!

I have this fun card to share with you today. The flying balloons are carrying the wayward umbrella with them. I am really pleased with the way it turned out. It is so bright and full of joy.

I’ve kept to the primary colours here which keep the card simple and bright. This card just uses punches. I love punches as they make for quick and easy crafting.

The umbrella is coloured in using the Seaside Spray Stampin’ Blend alcohol markers. It is so cute!! It matches the blue in the balloons as well. I haven’t blown up balloons in ages. It would be fun to blow them up and decorate the house with them, something fun to cheer us up.

I used the eyelet embossing folder to give some interest in the background. I haven’t used embossing folders in ages and wanted to change that. They are an easy and simple way to add extra interest to a card.

Feels Like Frost Thank you Card – Stampin’ Up!

I can’t believe it is less than a week to Christmas. This is my last blog of this year. I will be back on the 3rd of January. I have a thank you card to share with you today featuring the Feels Like Frost Designer Series Paper – (DSP). This paper is going into hibernation at the end of this year but will be back in the Autumn / Winter Catalogue next year. YEAH!!!

This is a quick and easy card to make that can easily be made in bulk. It’s perfect therefore for your Christmas thank you cards. The Feels Like Frost DSP is so beautiful and works for any winter card, not just Christmas.

I’ve used the Holiday Rhinestones as accent pieces here. I thought they would retire at the end of December but they are carrying over and I am so excited. I love them. The Holiday Rhinestones come as one pack of various sizes and various colours. So useful!!

Fable Friends – Gift Bag – Perfect for Children

I have a gift bag to share with you today using the Fable Friends stamp set. This is an amazing set and perfect children as well as anyone who loves cute and cuddly things.

Fabled Friends - Gift Bag - Perfect for Children — Fabled Friends – Gift Bag – Perfect for Children

I love the different blues in this bag. The night of navy really makes the whole thing pop. This bunny rabbit is so cute. He reminds me of cuddly toys and happy children. I am a sucker for cute and cuddly. I still have many of my cuddly toys from childhood including one bear that has travelled all over the world with me.

This bunny is coloured in using the Stampin’ Blends. The blends are fast becoming one of my favourite colouring mediums. You just need to remember to stamp your image in Memento ink as opposed to Stazon.
