August Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #33

Welcome to the August Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #33. You may have joined me from Elizabeth’s Blog or you may have started here. This month’s Blog Hop is a colour challenge. Initially I didn’t have any idea what I was going to create but after playing with a Sale-a-bration stamp set today, the card came together really quickly. The new Sale-a-bration Stamp set “Textures & Frames” which you can earn for FREE with a $90 purchase. I paired this set with the “Enjoy the Moment” stamp set from the Annual Catalogue.

We needed to use 3 of the new In Colors from the Annual Catalogue, Pale Papaya, Soft Succulent & Evening Evergreen. I chose to use the Tuxedo Black ink for the seed pod. Layering it onto a piece of Evening Evergreen and then onto a piece of Whisper White Thick card stock.

Forever Fern meets Simple Stamping

Forever Fern meets Simple Stamping today on my blog. This card is super simple to create with products you have already in your stash, once you add the Forever Fern stamp set.

I started off wanting to use a colour from each of the current In Colors that Stampin’ Up! have in their range right now. I chose the two greens within each collection which led me to Just Jade and Pretty Peacock. Stamping in Pretty Peacock ink with some of the ferns I then added some Bumblebee card as an accent and to cover up the end of the stems. The scrap piece was sitting on my desk at the time which made it an easy choice to use.

Adding the ‘Hello’ in Tuxedo Black Memento and the stamping is done. I layered Basic Black card onto the Just Jade card base and then realised that the whisper white was too long so rather than grabbing out my trimmer I chose to tear off the bottom. What do you think? Do the colours work? Forever Fern meets Simple Stamping – I must say the three colours have grown on my over the time.

Blossoms in Bloom Stepped Up

This week I’m sharing the Blossoms in Bloom Bundle which I have fallen in love with.

I’m excited to be sharing this Blossoms in Bloom Stepped Up card today. Starting by inking up the blossoms stamp in So Saffron Ink and then using my Mango Melody Stampin’ Write marker I added some colour to the edge of the stamp. I then overlayed the die cut blossoms from the Many Layered Blossoms dies using my Fine Tip Glue.

I have created a video for you to have a look and see how I have made this card. I’m very new to making videos but I wanted to share how I’ve created these cards.

Another Welcome Little One

Here is the second baby card that I was asked to create for a customers upcoming card class and I wanted something very simple.  This time I used Pool Party and Very Vanilla card stock.

I created a mask and used sponge brayers to create the Pool Party rectangle.  I then used the Animal Outing stamp set in Sahara Sand ink.

I also used the layering circle dies for the sentiment.  The sentiment is also from Animal Outing.

Animal Outing Birthday

At the conference we were at last month I needed to create a few cards as I was doing a workshop. Here is one of the cards that I created. I wanted to show how you can use some only a few products to create a card that they could duplicate.

Rather than using extra cardstock I punched the tailored punch out of the coloured card stock. Once the designer paper is layered on top you can’t even see where you punched.

I used the Animal Outing stamp set in the background. Then used the “Happy Birthday” from the Picture Perfect Birthday.

Stampin’ Up! 2018-2019 Colour Cardstock Sampler


As there are a number of colours changing in Stampin’ Up!’s colour collections it can be hard to remember the names of the new colours and know how each colour will coordinate.

With my Colour Cardstock Sampler you will be able to see the colours and match them before you cut up a new piece of our gorgeous colours.

The Colour Cardstock Sampler is only $10 plus postage and comes with all the labels and a hinged ring to keep all the colours together.  The ring also allows for the cards to move more freely so you can match up contrasting colours more easily.

Yes, you could create this all on your own. But, why take the time, and chop up your cardstock, when you don’t have to?

You can purchase your Colour Cardstock Sampler here
