Vivid Vases

Today I am sharing a recent class project using the gorgeous stamp "Vivid Vases" which you can find in the Spring/Summer Catalogue.

It's a single wood mount stamp, great for colouring and masking too so you could mask out one or more of the vases for a smaller image.

Here I've used watercolour paper to stamp my image onto and I used Stazon ink to stop any bleeding when watercolouring with the Aqua Painters.  I picked up ink from the lids of the ink pads, just squeeze them when closed to get a residue inside that you can paint with.

I've used the new Scallop Embossing Folder on my Blushing Bride layer which is lovely, then the amazing Petite Petals Punch to create a simple flower from Very Vanilla cardstock with an Itty Bitty Flower punched in the centre.

Would you like to own this stamp for yourself and try out some watercolouring, it's fun, easy and very effective.  Book a party and see the technique in action and as a Hostess you can earn Stampin' Up! products for FREE.  Place an order with me online and have it delivered to your door via a tracked service.

Baby We've Grown

Jay's niece had a beautiful baby girl a couple of weeks ago, so of course, I made a card and decided to use my "Baby We've Grown" stamp set.

It is just sooooo cute, love the rabbit image and there are also owls in this set too!

Here I've used a Sale-a-bration set "Banner Blast" which you can earn for FREE with a qualifying £45 spend and there is also the co-ordinating punch that could be a free choice too.  I just love how versatile this set is, I've used it so much.  

Another new product I am finding lots of use for is the "Starburst Framelits" dies, I love the zig zag edge, just makes everything layered on top of it stand out.

The random spot background was embosed using the Sale-a-bration free embossing folder.

The "Sweet Baby" sentiment is from the same set "Baby We've Grown", cut here using the Banner Framelits dies.

Always to hand

You can never have too many notebooks, mine are scattered a little, one in the car, one in my handbag, one in my craftroom and one in the kitchen drawer!  You never know when something's going to pop into your head and you need to document it before it slips away!

I made some of these for team members, simply decorated in subtle Crumb Cake and Blushing Bride.  The ovals were die cut using the Framelits then stamped with the Hardwood stamp and daubed around the edge to define.

My trusty Gorgeous Grunge made an appearance on the background and the Bitty Punch Pack that I use so often, here little flowers punched from Vellum.

The framed image is from "Chalk Talk" along with the "For You" greeting.  The frame was stamped with Versamark then heat embossed with Pewter embossing powder.  This stamp set has a co-ordinating Framelit set, buy with the stamps and receive a 15% discount.

I tied Chevron around the top to make it a little prettier.

Hope you like!

Petite Petals

I had to make a couple of cards to welcome some lovely ladies to my team of "Inspirationals" and also I needed some team cards and here they are.

I am loving the new "Hardwood" background stamp, it is perfect for masculine themed cards but also works well for a multitude of occasions.

Here I made an aperature in a piece of Crumb Cake cardstock using the Ovals Framelits dies.  I stamped that with the Hardwood Stamp along with the Naturals Ivory layer beneath it.  I daubed the edges to add some depth.

I used the Petite Petals stamps which have a matching punch and when purchased together as a bundle you can save 15%.

The wording on this card is from the "Fabulous Phrases" set, a very useful set to own.  I layered it onto a Wooden Element banner then onto a Soft Suede banner cut using the Banners Framelits Dies.

I wrapped around a piece of Blushing Bride Chevron ribbon.

Flower Bag

I have loved these Chevron "Tag a Bags" since they first landed here in the world of Stampin' Up!  Naked they are just divine, but dress them up and they are stunning!  Fill them with cards, a treat, a gift, the possibilties are endless and the occasion can be any.

Here i wanted to showcase some new products, the Spiral Flower Die, the Starburst Framelits Dies, Fringe Scissors and the lovely new Paper Stack called Fresh Prints.

I love how easy it is to create a 3D flower using the Spiral Flower Die, just cut, roll and glue!  Here I placed some ruffled ribbon and a pearl in the centre.  Love the colour combinations in the new Retro Fresh Paper Stack.

And for the Fringe Scissors, perfect for creating a border, very quick and easy to use
