    October Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop

    This months challenge is a colour Challenge. It was quite challenging to use these colours but when I did see them I just thought of Halloween.

    I used the It’s a Science stamp set which I thought lended its self quite well to halloween. I coloured in the white herringbone ribbon with my old olive blends. Adding the exposed brick embossing folder in the background is awesome and goes so well with the theme.

    What do you think of my card? Have I inspired you to get creating with this stampset?

  • September Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #58

    Welcome to our September Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #58. You may have joined me from Melissa’s blog or you may be starting right here with me. Either way, welcome to our blog hop for this month. I hope this hop inspires you to get into your craft room and get creating.

    This month’s blog hop is a layout challenge. This was a fairly easy challenge and I used the Beary Cute Memories & More Cards with the coordinating Cards & Envelopes. It turned the Card inside out so that the white was on the outside as I felt the card front didn’t need any more blue behind it.

    I used Real Red ink on the Sentiment with the Beary Cute Merry Christmas sentiment. This was very simple as I let the Memories & More cards do all the work for me in the background. I used my papersnips to create a banner on the end and then popped the sentiment up on dimensionals. And that is it. A simple Christmas card ready to send out.

    Welcome to our August Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #57. You may have joined me from Elizabeth’s blog or you may be starting right here with me. Either way, welcome to our blog hop for this month. I hope this hop inspires you to get into your craft room and get creating.

    This month’s blog hop is a colour challenge. The colours are Moody Mauve, Pecan Pie & Lost Lagoon. Originally when I heard what the colours were I wasn’t keen on doing the hop but then once I thought some more I loved them together. I chose to use the Sending Smiles Stamp set and coordinating dies. And I have to say they are divine and the colours are divine too. All the products I have used are listed below and you can purchase them 24/7 if you are in Australia and have them shipped directly to your door!

  • July Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #56

    Welcome to our July Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #56. You may have joined me from Melissa’s Blog or you may be starting right here with me. Either way, welcome to our blog hop for this month. I hope this hop inspires you to get into your craft room and get creating.

    This month’s blog hop is a layout challenge. I was running out of time to get creating but I was able to carve out a bit of time on Wednesday and have created these two cards. The first card is using a circle as the image displays but the second card I changed up the shape. I am loving these papers. They are the “Hello, Irresistible” designer series papers that are available on the Online Exclusives collection. Pairing the papers with the Timeless Charm stamp set and I think you have a great match.

  • June Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #55

    Welcome to our June Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #55. You may have joined me from Melissa’s Blog or you may be starting right here with me. Either way, welcome to our blog hop for this month. I hope this hop inspires you to get into your craft room and get creating. This past weekend we have had a long weekend and so I have had the opportunity to clean up my craft desk and get some creating done.

    This months blog hop is a colour challenge. We were given two colours and could then choose our third colour to create with. The two colours are Flirty Flamingo & Starry Sky. I then chose Lemon Lolly to be my third colour.

    Crafting with You Bundle and a colour challanege

    I wanted to create with the “Crafting with You” bundle and I loved playing with this bundle. Stampin’ Up! have created such a great set for us crafters. The trimmer die is just so lovely but I chose not to use it on this card.

  • May Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #54

    Welcome to our May Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #54. You may have joined me from Olivia’s Blog or you may be starting right here with me. Either way, welcome to our blog hop for this month. I hope this hop inspires you to get into your craft room and get creating.

    I have been a bit AWOL the last couple of months for these Blog Hops. I’ve had a bit too much on. Unfortunately, the blog hop was the thing I needed to let go of. And so I could give more time to things like my Retreat in April and my Creative Escape March.

    But I am now back again and this was a great challenge to take part in as it is an Anything Goes Challenge. This provides me open to use absolutely anything I want so I chose to play with the Beauty of the Deep Bundle and the Waves of Inspiration stamp Set & coordinating Waves Dies. All of these products are found in the new Annual Catalogue that was released only 12 days ago.

    My Cards

    This first card was inspired by one of my amazing downlines, Elizabeth. She created a card with this layout using the By the Bay suite. I love this layout so recreated it using the Beauty of the Deep Bundle along with the Bright & Beautiful Designer Series Papers.

    My next card is using the Waves of Inspiration Stamp set and the Waves Dies. I have incorporated the Painted Texture Embossing folder. I am thankful that this embossing folder carried over into the new catalogue. The water is created by using the wave image upside down. I then have used my blending brush to add ink to the “Sky” above the water.

    Now don’t hang around here all day you need to go and check out all the other blogs on the hop and make sure you comment along your way. It is always lovely to hear your comments on our creativity. Click the “Next Blog” image to be taken to Elizabeth’s blog.

    Welcome to our February Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #51. You may have joined me from Kylie’s Blog or you may be starting right here with me. Either way, welcome to our blog hop for this month. I hope this hop inspires you to get into your craft room and get creating.

    This months Blog Hop is a TicTacToe Challenge. The idea is that you choose a row whether it is horizontal, vertical or diagonal and you create a card with those three elements. The elements that I chose were Ribbon, Sparkle & Dies – straight down the left side of the table.

    Only two weeks left till Sale-a-bration ends. And let me tell you how amazing the deal is if you join Stampin’ Up! and purchase the starter kit! If you choose the mini stampin cut & emboss machine, then you’re saving more than 50% on the products!
