Stampin Up - Happy Birthday

Hi all,

Getting back into making some cards with this set! 

I think it's a great idea to make a set of the same card. I don't always have hours to spend making cards and when I find a card style I like it doesn't take me long to duplicate it and make 5 or more! This means I have more cards on hand to send to friends and family! 

Products used: 

- Rich Razzleberry cardstock 

- Poppy Crafts White Cardstock 

- Stampin Up Lotus Blossom Stamp Set

- Hero Arts Happy Stamp & Cut Set

- Hero Arts Ultra Pink Ink

- Hero Arts Raspberry Jam Ink

- Lawn Fawn Freshley Cut Grass Ink

- Hero Arts Forever Green Ink

- Hero Hues Black Dye Ink

- Heidi Swapp Favorite Things 6 x 6 patterned paper

Watercolour: thinking of you

Hi crafty friends, 

For this blog Challenege I decided to go simple! This card would be perfect to do in bulk as its quite simple! All I did was use my watercolour paper, some distress inks (abandoned coral, worn lipstick & picked raspberry) and some perfect pearls to create a watercoloured background! I then used my stampin up hearts framelits to cut a heart out of my watercolour piece! 

Popping this heart up on some whisper white cardstock backed on a calypso coral card base! 

And that's it! 

Other supplies

SSS Monday Blog Challenge: The letter 'N'

 

Hi Everyone. For this blog challenge you had to choose a theme starting with the letter 'N'. I chose Navy! I whipped out my Vintage Flowers Altenew Stamp Set and some inks and stamped this floral cluster. I then backed it on Winter Wonderland Designer Vellum Stack from Stampin Up. This card really took no time at all, and is definitely a card you could do in bulk.

Simon Says Stamp: Monday Blog Challenge

Hi All,

Todays card post will be entered into the Simon Says Stamp Monday Blog Challenge - Wonderful Watercolour.

a

To make this card I used some watercolour paper and peerless watercolours. I added a layer of colour onto the paper, then set it to dry. Once it had dried I then went back with a second layer of colour to create a more intense background. Once the second layer was dried I added a polka dot stencil (made with my Silhouette Cameo machine) and used a baby wipe to dab away some the colour.

Using my Silhouette Cameo Machine I cut out the work Merry in silver foil cardstock and 4 layers of white card stock to add some dimension.

Adding the word Christmas stamped onto some white cardstock and sequins this card was done!!

Congrats to you two: Wedding Card

Hi All,

Today's card it yet another wedding card. I just can't seem to keep up with the amount of weddings happening at the moment. Its spring here in Australia...so its wedding season!!

This card is super simple. First off the base is Neenah Desert Storm 110lb cardstock. I then used some patterned paper from the Simon Says Stamp May Card Kit 2015. Using the Your Perfect Day stamp set from Stampin Up, I stamped on Whisper White Cardstock , backed on Crumb Cake cardstock, with Licorice Black ink from Lawn Fawn. With some clear sequins from Pretty Pink Posh added for a little extra bling, my card was done!!

Thanks for popping by...happy crafting!!

Wedding Card: Stampin Up

Hi Everyone,

Todays post is inspired by Stampin Up's Your Perfect Day stamp set.

I love the simplicity of this card. There really isn't much to it!!

First I stamped the wreath & extra leaves in Pistachio Pudding Stampin Up Ink pad. I then used second generation Crisp Cantaloupe ink for the flowers (this means I inked up my stamp and then stamped on a piece of scrap paper and then onto my card. This gives a slightly lighter shade of the ink that was used)

I then used the sentiment 'Congrats to you two' from the stamp set, and stamped it in Black Licorice Lawn Fawn ink.

To finish this card I added some Pretty Pink Posh Clear 4mm & 6mm sequins.
