October Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #59

Posted on October 14, 2023 by sharon

Welcome to our October Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #59. You may have joined me from Eliza beth’s blog or you may be starting right here with me. Either way, welcome to our blog hop for this month. I hope this hop inspires you to get into your craft room and get creating.

This months challenge is a colour Challenge. It was quite challenging to use these colours but when I did see them I just thought of Halloween.

I used the It’s a Science stamp set which I thought lended its self quite well to halloween. I coloured in the white herringbone ribbon with my old olive blends. Adding the exposed brick embossing folder in the background is awesome and goes so well with the theme.

What do you think of my card? Have I inspired you to get creating with this stampset?

September Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #58

Posted on September 14, 2023 by sharon

Welcome to our September Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #58. You may have joined me from M elissa’s blog or you may be starting right here with me. Either way, welcome to our blog hop for this month. I hope this hop inspires you to get into your craft room and get creating.

This month’s blog hop is a layout challenge. This was a fairly easy challenge and I used the Beary Cute Memories & More Cards with the coordinating Cards & Envelopes. It turned the Card inside out so that the white was on the outside as I felt the card front didn’t need any more blue behind it.

I used Real Red ink on the Sentiment with the Beary Cute Merry Christmas sentiment. This was very simple as I let the Memories & More cards do all the work for me in the background. I used my papersnips to create a banner on the end and then popped the sentiment up on dimensionals. And that is it. A simple Christmas card ready to send out.

August Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #57

Posted on August 14, 2023 by sharon

Welcome to our August Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #57. You may have joined me from Elizabeth’s blog or you may be starting right here with me. Either way, welcome to our blog hop for this month. I hope this hop inspires you to get into your craft room and get creating.

This month’s blog hop is a colour challenge. The colours are Moody Mauve, Pecan Pie & Lost Lagoon. Originally when I heard what the colours were I wasn’t keen on doing the hop but then once I thought some more I loved them together. I chose to use the Sending Smiles Stamp set and coordinating dies. And I have to say they are divine and the colours are divine too. All the products I have used are listed below and you can purchase them 24/7 if you are in Australia and have them shipped directly to your door!

May Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #54

Posted on May 14, 2023 by sharon

Welcome to our May Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #54. You may have joined me from Olivia’s Blog or you may be starting right here with me. Either way, welcome to our blog hop for this month. I hope this hop inspires you to get into your craft room and get creating.

I have been a bit AWOL the last couple of months for these Blog Hops. I’ve had a bit too much on. Unfortunately, the blog hop was the thing I needed to let go of. And so I could give more time to things like my Retreat in April and my Creative Escape March.

But I am now back again and this was a great challenge to take part in as it is an Anything Goes Challenge. This provides me open to use absolutely anything I want so I chose to play with the Beauty of the Deep Bundle and the Waves of Inspiration stamp Set & coordinating Waves Dies. All of these products are found in the new Annual Catalogue that was released only 12 days ago.

My Cards

This first card was inspired by one of my amazing downlines, Elizabeth. She created a card with this layout using the By the Bay suite. I love this layout so recreated it using the Beauty of the Deep Bundle along with the Bright & Beautiful Designer Series Papers.

My next card is using the Waves of Inspiration Stamp set and the Waves Dies. I have incorporated the Painted Texture Embossing folder. I am thankful that this embossing folder carried over into the new catalogue. The water is created by using the wave image upside down. I then have used my blending brush to add ink to the “Sky” above the water.

Now don’t hang around here all day you need to go and check out all the other blogs on the hop and make sure you comment along your way. It is always lovely to hear your comments on our creativity. Click the “Next Blog” image to be taken to Elizabeth’s blog.

December Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #49

Posted on December 14, 2022 by sharon

Welcome to our December Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #49. You may have joined me from Nikki’s Blog or you may be starting right here. Either way, welcome to our blog hop for this month. I hope this hop inspires you to get into your craft room and get creating.

This months Blog Hop is a Colour Challenge. I found this colour combination fairly quick and easy to use. With Christmas around the corner I knew I needed to create some quick and simple gift card holders and I wanted the card to be fairly simple. I saw one card I had made recently and decided to use the same stamps and layout.

I created a video while I made the card as well so you can see exactly what I did.

August Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #45

Posted on August 14, 2022 by sharon

Welcome to our August Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #45. You may have joined me from Meighans’ Blog or you may be starting right here. Either way, welcome to our blog hop.

This months Blog Hop is a Colour Challenge. The Colours we’re using this month is Real Red, Tahitian Tide and Crushed Curry. When I first saw these colours I was thinking, sure this will be easy. Then when I started playing I had a couple of second thoughts but when I got into the swing of creating 4 cards came out in very quick succession.

I chose to use the Kindest Gnomes Stamp set and this made my creating quite simple. I went to one of my favourite techniques, Masking and decided to use Stampin’ Up!’s masking paper. This stuff is brilliant! Using blending brushes I created 2 cards with the masking technique and then another card with just the brushes onto Basic White card. My last card I chose to use strips of each colour as a background and added in some Basic Gray as my neutral. I did cheat a little and added in Smoky Slate as a second neutral.

March Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #40

Posted on March 14, 2022 by sharon

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?
