On my Facebook Live recently I shared a few products that are retiring very soon including the Tasteful Touches Stamp Set which is heavily discounted at 50% off from $40 down to $20.
This Tasteful Touches stamp set is gorgeous and I will really miss it once it retires. You can see the cards I made in my youtube video below. I’d love for you to follow my You tube channel so you can see all the projects I’ve created and get notified when I upload new videos.
Welcome to our March Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #40. You may have joined me from Melissa’s Blog or are you starting right here? Either way, welcome. There are 8 of us hopping along this month so you’re in for a real treat.
This months Blog Hop is a colour challenge and we are using some In Colors that will be retiring very very soon. I love the colours for this challenge but struggled to work out what I wanted to do so I went with a stamp set that I have been creating with lately, the Artfully Layered Stamp Set.
The Artfully Layered stamp set is from the January to June Mini Catalogue. I chose to do a slim line card this month. Can you believe that this is only the 2nd slimline card that I have created? What do you think of my card?

On my Friday Facebook Live on the 25th February I created 3 cards using the Flowing Flowers Stamp set from the January to June Mini Catalogue.
The inspiration for these cards came from two places. The middle card was from a stamp camp that I attended recently and was a shoebox swap but with different colours created originally by Paula.
The first & third cards were inspired by Michelle Litwiller from Owl Star Stampers in the US. She used a different stamp set but I definitely copied the layout and how she created these cards and changed the stamp set to the Flowing Flowers. You can see her video here.
Today I am sharing with you a card created with the Hello Ladybug stamp set from the January to June Mini Catalogue. This card was designed by Priscilla at a recent Stamp Camp that my upline held at the beginning of February.
While at camp I decided to record myself creating the card with the shoebox and all the items that were supplied in that shoebox. The video is below and I hope you enjoy it as I decided to speed it up for you. If you’d like some instructions on how the card came together, please let me know.
The Hello Ladybug stamp set is super cute and coordinates with a punch. When you purchase the bundle you can save 10% but only while it is in the January to June Mini Catalogue. Bundles are a fabulous option for a lower price point to grab coordinating products to get creative.
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.

In todays post, Blending Brushes meets Paradise Palms. I love these cards and the quick and easy way they are created. These cards are using the blending brushes. One of the cards also uses a masking technique which gives a definite panel which is coloured. The other card is free hand but I love them both.
On each card I have used the same colours, Daffodil Delight, Calypso Coral & Crumb Cake for the blended backgrounds and then used the Memento Black ink for the palm trees and the sentiment. The original inspiration came from Angie Leach & Stampin’ Fun with Tracy – I couldn’t find her blog but found the image from Pinterest.

I created a couple of other cards as well using different colours and am sharing a video for you to see the other designs as well. As always you will see all the products I have used at the bottom of this email. This stamp set has been fun to play with and you can see some of the other cards I have created here.
The Artfully Layered Bundle jumped out at me as soon as I saw it. I love the greenery in the paper and the dies are just to die for, pardon the pun. This is also my first class for the year which will be held on Thursday 17th February at 10am. You can email me for more details or click on this link.
The Designer Series Paper is so lovely that it does a lot of the work for you when you’re creating your projects. This suite would also go well with the Paradise Palms Bundle

Each Friday I have been doing a facebook friday live and on the 31st December I am showcasing these cards, however I did create some quicker cards on the live. I also upload the video to youtube. I have been enjoying the facebook lives and it has helped me with my creativity. Which version of the cards would you like to re-create? I show these cards above at about the 6 minute mark on the video if you wish to skip ahead.
