Between Christmas & New Year I got out some of the brand new products from the new Mini Catalogue and starting having a play. I chose the Adorable Owls to play with and love how cute they are. I’m not much of a colourer but I do love how the blends make it so easy to colour in your images.

The Adorable Owls are great when you colour them in with Stampin’ Blends

Friday Facebook Live on 21st July

During my Friday Facebook Live on 21st July I shared two stamp sets which were the Kindest Gnomes and the Peace to You stamp sets by Stampin’ Up!

The Peace to You cards that I created were super super simple and you can make so many of these in a very short amount of time. So if you need to make many cards for Christmas then this is the stamp set to buy. On one of the cards I just used Starry Sky ink and added a rhinestone to the star. The second card was a bit more involved. I used a sponge to add some ink in two different colours onto the stamp and then stamped it on the Very Vanilla piece of card. I chose Starry Sky card to add in a layer and then mounted onto a blackberry bliss card base. Adding a rhinestone to the star again finishes it off nicely.

Peace to You

Peace to You Stamp set by Stampin' Up! and some super quick and simple cards to create this christmas.

The two gnome cards using the Kindest Gnomes stamps were fairly simple as well. I was first looking at one piece of designer series paper from the Storybook Gnomes DSP but then decided to not use any patterned paper at all behind my cute gnomes. The second card with a little different. I chose the paper first and then coloured in. But this time I stamped in Starry Sky ink and pulled the ink with a blender pen for his beard and then used the watercolor pencils for the rest of him. I love how they both turned out. My colouring leaves a lot to be desired but at least everyone will know that they are handmade 🙂

Splendid Thoughts

On my Facebook Live last Friday I shared the Splendid Thoughts stamp set and created 5 cards using the stamp set. I created a couple over basic cards to start with and then stepped them up.

I was really happy with how they turned out and you can watch the quick video below where I have sped up the card making. You can also watch the extended version here.

I show you the masking technique in a couple of the cards and this is a technique that I love using. It really is a fun way to create a card. Show me your projects that you’ve made using the masking technique.

Splendid Thoughts stamp set is in the July to December Mini Catalogue and you are just going to love love love this stamp set. All of the products that I used in the video is listed below. You can purchase all of these products from me at my online store.

February Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #39

Welcome to our February Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #39. Have you joined me from Niki’s blog or are you starting right here? Either way, welcome. There are 9 of us hopping along this month so you’re in for a real treat.

This months Blog Hop is a layout challenge. This challenge was a lovely one to participate in. I was able to create two cards this month and I rotated one of the cards.

I chose to use the tulip paper and coordinating stamp set from the January to June Mini Catalogue. The cards aren’t square but I hope that I have fulfilled the challenge. Layering the DSP onto a colour other that white really brings out the colours in the Designer Series Paper. Isn’t the Flowering Fields Designer Series Paper just beautiful? Leaving the DSP to shine was a great choice with just a small amount of stamping.

Amazing Silhouettes Stamp

I am sharing a brand new bundle that has just recently been released by Stampin’ Up! It’s called the Amazing Silhouettes Bundle and is made up of the Amazing Silhouettes Stamp set & the Amazing Thanks Dies.

This card has been stepped up slightly from my other two cards just by adding an extra ink colour. Four Inks, 1 stamp from the Amazing Silhouettes Stamp and then the two dies from the Amazing Thanks Dies. This card is the Third of 3 cards that I’m sharing with you this week to kick off the new January-June Mini Catalogue and Sale-a-bration which also started on the 4th January.

I have also created a very quick video for you to view. Have I encouraged you to purchase this Bundle?
