Big Shot Layering Alphabet Lined Alphabet Video

Lined Alphabet Bundle (Video)

written by Kylie

Hi, today I wanted to focus on one of the bundles in the new catalogue which really caught my eye. It is the Lined Alphabet Bundle which features the Layering Alphabet Edgelits Dies and the Lined Alphabet Photopolymer Stamp Set. They can be used together but they can also be used separately. I love the different ways you can use them. They look so good! Let’s take a closer look…

Here’s the video…

Layering Alphabet Edgelits Dies

Create layered words or letters for tabs and other fun projects. These dies are designed to interlock with included Edgelit piece to create cascading word projects. International characters are also included.

* 34 dies
* Largest die: 3-1/8″ x 6″ (7.9 x 15.2 cm)

Lined Alphabet Photopolymer Stamp Set

BIG letters for BIG messages!

Photopolymer stamps
* Are totally transparent for perfect image placement.
* Have just enough give to create a perfectly stamped image every time.
* Cling like crazy to our clear blocks so you don’t have to worry about slipping.
* Save space—you need only one set of blocks for all your photopolymer stamps (blocks sold separately).
* Come packaged in cases with images on the spine for easy storage and quick reference.

Quantity: 34 photopolymer stamps
Suggested clear blocks (sold separately): a, b

And of course, you can buy both in a bundle to save 10%! Isn’t this a fabulous set! I really like how versatile it is. Stampin’ Up! has really thought about how to maximise the use of the dies in particular. These items would be great for card making and scrapbooking and if you have children they’d be great for their projects too.

Thanks so much for stopping by! Hope you have a great day!

Calligraphy Essentials Kit (Video)

written by Kylie

Hi, I am a huge fan of calligraphy. I took a class years ago and spent hours practising. When the modern brush script letting became popular I really wanted to give it a go. Fast forward to the new Annual Catalogue released last month and Stampin’ Up! has released a beautiful project kit which enables you to make some super pretty cards as well as teaching you how to write in this brush script. How fabulous! Let’s take a closer look at this beautiful kit.

Here’s the video…

Calligraphy was invented to convey important messages. Send your loved ones a card that will make a difference in their lives.

Annual Catalogue Jake Occasions

Lots of News

written by Kylie

Hi, sorry it has been a while since I shared ideas and news about the outgoing catalogue and the incoming catalogue. Life has been very busy with Jake and I am also about to move within the next month so there has been little, okay, no time for crafting at all. I really wanted to touch base and let you know all that is happening in my world, and the Stampin’ Up! world.

Jake...

Jake is now a 17-week old goofball. He’s super smart, super cute and very energetic. I love him to pieces. We finished puppy class recently and we are now on a hunt for our next training school. He had his final vaccinations on Tuesday night so he is 10 days away from taking on the world.

Stampin’ Blends...

Great news! All of the current colours of Stampin’ Blends are back in stock and available for purchase. Thank you for your patience while Stampin’ Up! worked to restock this popular product. (And if you cannot wait to get your hands on the new Stampin’ Blends colours, they are on track to be available mid-June. Yay!)

2018/2019 Annual Catalogue...

The 2018/2019 Annual Catalogue is going to go live on June 1st, 2018 and you are going to LOVE all of the new things! If you have placed an order with me over the last six months you will be receiving a hard copy catalogue in the mail very soon. I am having it sent directly from Stampin’ Up! so it won’t have my name on it. Surprise! It’s one of my ways of saying “thank you” for supporting my small business.

2017/2018 Annual Catalogue & 2018 Occasions Catalogue…

Whilst we are all eagerly awaiting the moment we can order from the new catalogue, let’s not forget that time is ticking away on the products in the current Annual Catalogue and the Occasions Catalogue. Check out the retiring list for those items which will no longer be available from May 31st, 2018. Keep in mind that while some stamp sets and coordinating dies may be continuing in the new catalogue they will NOT be available as Bundles (which means no more 10% discount). Another thing to keep in mind is that there are a few price rises heading our way with the new catalogue so to avoid this, now is the time to buy. And, finally, don’t forget that if you need ink refills of the retiring colours, you need to stock up now.

General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)…

As some of you may be aware, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) came into being in the European Union on 25 May 2018. Whilst I am actually prohibited from selling Stampin’ Up products in Europe, I thought it was really important to cover this topic with you all. If you place an order with me through my online store your information is kept for the reason to process and ship your order. I will then send you a thank you card for your order, or at a time such as the new catalogue release, I will arrange for a catalogue to be sent to you. Your details are NOT shared with anyone and remain on the Stampin’ Up! site.

If you have signed up for my email newsletter you will have noticed that it says that your email is only used for the purpose of sending you newsletters and that you can unsubscribe at any time. This remains true. Your email is collected through the company I use to host my newsletters (Vision6) and it is not shared with any other parties. In general, I only send one newsletter a month unless it is a particularly newsworthy time. Don’t forget you can unsubscribe at any time.

When commenting on my blog, I use Akismet to reduce (!) spam comments. There is now a privacy notice which will appear under each blog post which states: This site uses Akismet to reduce spam. Learn how your comment data is processed.

I take your privacy seriously and value your readership and custom.

Phew! So, there’s a lot of information there and I thank you for taking the time to read it. Happy shopping as we come into the last day of the 2017/2018 Annual Catalogue and 2018 Occasions Catalogue period!

Thanks so much for stopping by! Hope you have a great day!

Birthday Blooms Thank you

Thanks (Birthday Blooms)

written by Kylie

Hi, have I mentioned how much I love the Birthday Blooms stamp set? Only a few times, right? I love how many different types of cards you can create, or you can create very similar cards but use different colourways, and they all look so fantastic. I really feel stamp sets like these offer such great value for money.

I had been wanting to experiment with the combination of the new colour Poppy Parade and Melon Mambo to colour the floral image. I thought the combination might create a really pretty pinky red. I used my Aqua Painters to apply the colour to Shimmery White Cardstock. I also used Basic Black and Granny Apple Green to finish off the design. Once finished, I trimmed it out and put it aside.

I decided to keep the card itself very simple with the floral image the main star of the piece. I thought a nice white background would be the perfect stage for it but it needed a little texture. As I was flicking through my embossing folders I couldn’t decide between the Layered Leaves Dynamic Textured Embossing Folder and the Hexagons Dynamics Textured Embossing Folder so I decided to use both and create two cards.

For the first card, I used a landscape design and featured the Layered Leaves Dynamic Textured Embossing Folder.

Here’s the card…

For the second card, I used a portrait design with the Hexagons Dynamic Textured Embossing Folder.

Here’s the card…

I love the combination of the Poppy Parade and Melon Mambo and hope to experiment further with it in the future. I also love the elegance of the cards and I think it would look lovely in any other colour combination too. One idea could be to create a white flower on the white background. Another idea could be to emboss the flower in gold and use a corresponding sentiment also embossed in gold. I think that would be really lovely as well. And now you can tell why I spend so much time working with the Birthday Blooms set. There are just so many different ways you can use this set.

If you love the Birthday Blooms set, it is available in my online store until May 31st, 2018.

Birthday Blooms Video

Birthday Blooms (Video)

written by Kylie

Hi, today I am sharing a video and three ‘similar but different’ cards using the retiring Birthday Blooms stamp set. This is one of my favourite stamp sets and I really do wish it wasn’t retiring.

I haven’t made a video in a very long time and there a few technical issues which I am hoping to improve upon for the next time but I hope you will enjoy it and that it gives you some ideas for your own crafting.

Here’s the video…

Here’s the card…

This is the card made in the video above. My colour palette is Pool Party, Balmy Blue, Pineapple Punch and Granny Apple Green. Isn’t it super pretty!

For my second card, the colour palette is Granny Apple Green, So Saffron (with a touch of Crushed Curry), Petal Pink and just a touch of Grapefruit Grove.

Here’s the card…

The final card features Granny Apple Green (again! I do love this colour), Pineapple Punch, Highland Heather and Gorgeous Grape.

Here’s the card…

I’d love to see this card in a few other colour combinations as well. Don’t you think a bright red/pink combination could look amazing? I also think it would be fun to do this same design on Crumb Cake base and then add a pop of colour with the flower. Isn’t the Birthday Blooms stamp set gorgeous?! Don’t forget it is only available in my online shop until May 31st, 2018.

Birthday Blooms

For You (Birthday Blooms)

written by Kylie

Hi, whilst I am very excited to see all the new items coming our way in the 2018-2019 Annual Catalogue, there are a few stamp sets which have been favourites of mine and I am so sad they are retiring. One such stamp set is Birthday Blooms. This is one of the first sets I purchased when I signed up to be a Demonstrator. I *LOVE* it! I have made so many cards with this set. It also happens to be one of my favourite stamp sets to make “similar but different” style of card sets.

Today I am sharing two cards which are “similar but different” and they are using new colours coming to the range. I have made a LOT of these cards in the past so if this design is of interest to you, search for Birthday Blooms in the Search bar or click on the Birthday Blooms tab.

Here’s the card…

My colour palette for this card is the new Lovely Lipstick, Granny Apple Green and Pineapple Punch. Such a pretty combination! I coloured directly onto the paper (Shimmery White Cardstock) with the markers but I also used my Aqua Painters to paint some of the colours (the leaves and the petals) to get some lovely shades.

For my second card, I wanted to show you that you can create softer cards using this same method and they look equally as good. My colour palette is Petal Pinks, Granny Apple Green, So Saffron and Balmy Blue. Once again, I used a combination of colouring directly onto the paper (Shimmery White Cardstock) and painting with my Aqua Painters.

Here’s the card…

I could sit and make cards like these all day! I love playing with different colour combinations and I love colouring! And, of course, I just love the Birthday Blooms stamp set. If the Birthday Blooms is a favourite of yours too, it is still available in my online shop but only until May 31st, 2018.

Thanks so much for stopping by! Hope you have a great day!

Make A Difference Mother's Day Share What You Love

Happy Mother’s Day (Share What You Love)

written by Kylie

Hi, it’s Mother’s Day! Happy Mother’s Day to all of you who are Mum’s, step-Mum’s, foster Mum’s, soon to be Mum’s and Mum’s of angels in heaven. To those of you who find this to be a hard day, for any reason, best wishes to you too.

For my Mother’s Day card, I wanted to use the gorgeous Share What You Love Specialty Designer Series Paper (currently only available as part of the Gotta Have It All bundle) because…I want to use it for everything these days. lol It is just gorgeous! As it is so pretty, I really wanted it to be the star of the show, along with the sentiment, so I kept the design very simple. I don’t have a Mother’s Day sentiment stamp so I used the fabulous new Make a Difference stamp set to create my own greeting. Yes, it is a little lopsided but I think this adds to the charm.

Here’s the card…

The Make A Difference stamp set is gorgeous and versatile as you can create any sentiment you desire – really handy for personalising your projects. The other fantastic feature of this stamp set is that it has the copyright stamp which you need to stamp on the back of your cards if you are selling them. Currently, the Make A Difference stamp set is available as part of both the A Little More, Please bundle and the Gotta Have It All bundle.

Thanks so much for stopping by! Hope you have a great day!
