Clean and Simple Free As A Bird Thank you

Thank You (Free As A Bird)

written by Kylie

Hi everyone, today I am sharing a clean and simple card where I am embracing the white space! I know many of us struggle with white space…and I am definitely one of those people! I do keep trying though and every now and again I create a card where I seem to get the balance right. I think this is the one!

You only need a few items to create this card – cardstock, ink, colouring tools, a length of Bakers Twine and your choice of stamp. I’ve used the beautiful birds sitting on a branch from the Free As A Bird stamp set. I love this set! It’s so pretty! It’s also fun to colour. I used Stampin’ Blends but you could use whatever colouring medium you’d prefer.

Here’s the Card…

It is such a simple card and if you love to colour you could easily reproduce it multiple times. I hope you’ll embrace the white space and give it a try!

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

Designer Series Paper Sailing Home Sale

You Are My True North (Sailing Home / Come Sail Away DSP)

written by Kylie

Hi everyone, as we come to the end of the Buy 3, Get 1 Free Designer Series Paper sale I thought I’d share another card featuring paper included in this sale. The Come Sail Away Designer Series Paper is great for masculine cards and scrapbook layouts. I love that it is part of a suite too so everything from coordinating stamps, dies, twine and embellishments are available. I love how everything matches so well.

The card itself is pretty easy to make. I simply layered some of the Come Sail Away paper and cardstock. I used vellum for the circle in the background as I wanted the patterned paper to show through a little bit.

While writing this post I started thinking about how awesome it is that we can be as creative as we like when we make our cards. We are limited only by our imagination. Years ago I was teaching kindergarten and I had been away for the day as I was sick. When I returned to work one of the parents said to me her child had come home the day before all upset because the relief teacher had told her that her elephant couldn’t be purple. I remember saying, “when else can an elephant be purple if not in kindergarten?” The truth is we can, as creative people, do whatever we like when we make our cards. What prompted this thought is that the green plant is obviously not the right scale when compared with the lighthouse. It does, however, work! If I had been a stickler for making everything look “real” then I wouldn’t have used the two pieces together. I think the card looks good!

I really want to encourage you to play and explore. Do what feels right for you!

Here’s the Card…

Don’t forget: the Buy 3, Get 1 Free Designer Series Paper sale ends today (30 September 2019).

Bird Ballad DSP CASE the Catalogue Free As A Bird Thank you

Thanks for being you (Free as a bird / Bird Ballad DSP)

written by Kylie

Hi everyone, today I am sharing a card based on a sample in the current 2019-2020 Annual Catalogue. In the catalogue, the design was actually on the side of a tin and it was so cute I had to adapt it to a regular card. It’s super easy to make and I think it looks pretty cute. I hope you’ll give it a try.

To create the card, all you need is a sheet of patterned paper from the Bird Ballad Designer Series Paper and cut it to fit the size of your card base. I allowed for a little border but you could increase or decrease this gap as per your own preference. Next up, I stamped the super cute bird from the Free as a Bird stamp set, along with some leaves. Don’t worry too much about how it will look near the bird’s feet as you will place the sentiment over this area. The sentiment is also from the Free as a Bird stamp set. To add a little more interest to the sentiment, I used the cute flower embellishment from the Bird Ballad Trinkets pack.

Here’s the Card…

It’s super cute, isn’t it? I love the samples in the catalogue. The designers are so talented and inspiring!

The Bird Ballad Designer Series Paper is one of the patterned paper packs included in the current Buy 3, Get 1 Free sale. This sale ends on 30 September.

Designer Series Paper Dino Days

Thanks for being a Friend-A-Saurus (Dino Days / Dinoroar DSP)

written by Kylie

Hi everyone, if you are looking for a super cute and fun suite for making cards for children…or simply the young at heart, the Dinoroar Suite may be just what you need. I love the colours in the Designer Series Paper: they are so bright and happy. I also LOVE that you can use the coordinating dies to cut out some of the dinosaurs from the paper and that’s what I have done here. I’ve used the Dino Days stamp set for the sentiment and to add some foliage to the landscape. The tree trunk stamp was used to create the ground.

Here’s the Card…

Dandelion Wishes

Sending Well Wishes Your Way (Dandelion Wishes / Pressed Petals Specialty DSP)

written by Kylie

Hi everyone, today’s card features another piece of patterned paper as the focus. It’s a stunning print from the Pressed Petals Specialty Designer Series Paper. It is GORGEOUS! I really wanted to keep the design of the card simple because the patterned paper deserves to feature prominently.

You might notice that I’ve used some pretty Rococo Rose Bakers Twine but you might also be aware that Stampin’ Up! doesn’t actually stock Rococo Rose Bakers Twine. It is SO EASY to make your own. Simply cut a piece of Whisper White Baker’s Twine to the desired length. Either take a glass with a little water and a drop of Rococo Rose Ink Refill and swish the Baker’s Twine around in it. Hang it up to dry. Or, press the Rococo Rose ink pad on a large acrylic block and add some water with your Aqua Painter. Swish the length of Whisper White Baker’s Twine around in it. Hang it up to dry. Be careful where you hang it though as it will stain some surfaces if it drips…ask me how I know! Oops! I use this technique ALL the time now. It’s so easy and fun too!

The sentiment for this card comes from the Dandelion Wishes stamp set. It’s a lovely stamp set and I love the fonts used for the sentiments too. Very pretty!

Bird Ballad DSP Designer Series Paper Free As A Bird

Hello (Free as a Bird / Bird Ballad)

written by Kylie

Hi everyone, with the current Buy 3, Get 1 Free Designer Series Paper sale on (until the end of September), I was inspired to pull out some Designer Series Paper and create with it. I don’t tend to use a lot of patterned paper in my crafting but I LOVE it! The Bird Ballad DSP is gorgeous (and it’s one of the selected paper packs included in the sale) and it was my go-to paper. Often when we use patterned paper we use it as a background and layer other images on top of it. This particular design is so beautiful I felt it really needed to be the main feature.

Here’s the Card…

The lovely sentiment comes from the coordinating stamp set Free As A Bird. It’s a fantastic stamp set and I am definitely going to be using it again soon.

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

Boo To You Itty Bitty Greetings

Best Wishes from All of Us (Boo To You/Itty Bitty Greetings)

written by Kylie

Hi everyone, today I am sharing a card featuring the cute spooky creatures from the Boo to You stamp set. I thought it might be fun to have them all hang out together. This then lead me to grabbing one of the Itty Bitty Greetings sentiment stamps as I thought it would be a nice “from all of us” card.

I had fun colouring the card with my Stampin’ Blends but of course, you can use whichever colouring medium you prefer. And I HAD to finish off the card by adding googly eyes. I can’t say that I will use googly eyes on all my new card projects…but I can’t say I won’t! I love them! I also love that they not only come in white but also Crushed Curry, Granny Apple Green and Gorgeous Grape.

Here’s the Card…

These cute critters are way too cute to spook!
