Engagement Card

Posted on January 10, 2020 by sharon

Over the weekend my husband and I were invited to an engagement party of one of the lovely ladies in my team and her fiance. It was held in Katoomba on possibly the hottest days of the recent times. It was, however, a lovely day celebrating Michelle & Josh’s engagement.

I had to make a special card for them and not just pick something from my stash of cards. I chose to use new product from the January-June Mini Catalogue. I chose the Forever Blossoms Stamp Set with matching Designer Series Paper with the gorgeous Champagne Foil accents in the paper. I used the Blends to colour in the blossoms. I didn’t have the Petal Pink blends so used the Calypso Coral blends instead. I used the Petal Pink Organdy Striped Ribbon as well. And of course I needed to stamp the blossoms on the envelope which I did in Pool Party ink.

You can now purchase all of these products up till the 3rd June. And don’t forget that for every $90 spent you can earn a free item from the
Sale-a-bration catalogue. There are some great products that you can earn for free including stamps, ribbon, Designer paper, Punches & dies. There is even a fabulous card kit that you can earn which makes up 8 cards (4 each of 2 designs).

Just for You

Posted on January 9, 2020 by sharon

With the beginning of the new January-June Mini Catalogue I sent out my catalogues to the customers that have shopped with me in the last 12 months. I created cards to send with the catalogues using some new products. I love the Peaceful Poppies Designer Series Paper and matching stamp set. I cut the DSP into 9.5cmx13.85cm pieces (6 from 1 sheet) I used Basic Black as the layer in between but before I stuck this down I cut out the black frame layer to save on card stock. I then used a retired punch for the white circle but you can use the circle framelits to cut out a circle that would work too.

The Shelli Kit

Posted on April 28, 2019 by sharon

One of Stampin’ Up!’s goals is to surprise and delight us with fun, new creative experiences. And I think you’re going to absolutely love what they have up they’re sleeve this Autumn. Shelli Gardner, board chair and cofounder of Stampin’ Up!, has partnered with Paper Pumpkin to create a limited edition, nature-focused, Shelli-inspired kit.

Though Paper Pumpkin isn’t currently offered outside of North America, they wanted to share this very special kit with everyone. And because all the global markets have long been curious about the Paper Pumpkin program, they knew we would love to have this unique opportunity to see what it’s all about.

The look and feel of this kit is all Shelli. It’s elegant and feminine, and so full of natural details that you’ll probably just want to take a walk, breathe in the fresh air, and then go home and stamp every card in the kit. And the box it comes in? We predict that you’ll be keeping it . . . like . . . forever. Wait and see.

If you would like one of these kits you can order it online from May 15th at my online store.

Another Welcome Little One

Posted on September 10, 2018 by sharon

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.

Thinking of You

Posted on August 25, 2018 by sharon

This was a simple easy card to make for one of my recent classes. I used the Rooted in Nature stamp set.

I used Tranquil Tide card stock as the base colour as it is one of my favourite colours in this current catalogue.

I stamped in Tranquil Tide and Sahara Sand ink randomly on the Very Vanilla card stock. I also stamped the sentiment in Early Espresso ink and tied the linen thread around the Very Vanilla card.
