Timeless Tulips

Posted on April 2, 2020 by sharon

I have had a lovely play with the Timeless Tulips stamp set and punch bundle by Stampin’ Up! You can purchase this bundle and save 10% till the 2nd June, 2020, so shop online now to get yours today.

To create this card I first needed to create a mask. Layering the mask over some Whisper White card stock I used one of the leaf images in Soft Sea Foam to create the background, overlapping them as I went. After I took off the mask I then stamped the tulip buds in Poppy Parade ink. Stamped the stems and leaves in Old Olive ink. I stamped “Happy Mothers Day” in Poppy Parade ink.

I used a Poppy Parade card base to then layer the stamped images onto a Basic Black mount.

The inspiration to use the Timeless Tulip Stamps came from Thinkingstamping.co.nz and I love how katiedrewcards.blogspot.com, created the background. Utilising both of these ideas and melding them together to create the card I have now. To say that I am really happy with how well it turned out is an understatement. I am going to be sharing this card and a few others with my team this coming weekend on a zoom meeting. We’re going to have a virtual craft session.

The Timeless Tulips Stamp set by Stampin’ Up! really is timeless. They are a stunningly designed stamp set that you will want to keep forever.

I created another card which you can see here.

Timeless Tropical

Posted on February 25, 2020 by sharon

The Timeless Tropical stamp set is a gorgeous set that has so many lovely images in the set including the hibiscus flower and the frangipani, not to mention the leaves in the set.
I created 2 of the cards fairly easily using the blog hop I did in January but then changed up the hibiscus colour to match the card base. I did a quick search and found lots of other colours that the flower could be and played with them.

I then went to a come and play day at my team leaders home and came up with the other two cards. I’m happy with the final result of all 4 of the cards.

These 4 cards are the ones we’ll be making in this weeks classes. If you’d like to come along and make these cards with me, then click on this link to see more details.

Team Blog Hop #15

Posted on February 14, 2020 by sharon

Welcome to our Team Blog Hop #15. This months challenge is to use pre-determined colours of Seaside Spray, Rococo Rose & Purple Posy. These are 3 current In Colors that go beautifully together. The hardest part was to choose what stamp set I wanted to use but finally settled on “Beautiful Moments” which is such a gorgeous stamp set. It was designed in collaboration with a New Zealand million dollar achiever and just love this set.

I started off making 2 cards and then decided to create a simple scrapbook page as well. I tried to stamp the image in one of the colours and then colour it in with my blends but I just wasn’t getting the look I wanted so used the Momento black Tuxedo ink and then coloured in the images. I don’t have the seaside spray blends so I improvised and used my Wink of Stella and the stamp pad to colour in the buckets. I love how it gives the images some sparkle.
