Happy Mother’s Day (Hand-Penned Petals / A Wish for Everything)

by Kylie
written by Kylie

Hi everyone, on the eve of the launch of the 2021-2022 Annual catalogue, I thought I would share a couple of cards made from products that will be available from tomorrow. YAY! I’m so excited for you to finally be able to see all the wonderful new products and inspiration!

Today I am sharing two versions of Mother’s Day cards. I made one for my Mum and one for my partners Mum. Can you believe Mother’s Day is just around the corner? Here’s your reminder in case you haven’t made your card yet. If only someone had reminded me that I need to account for interstate post now that I’m on the opposite coast from my Mum! Oops! Somehow I don’t think it is going to arrive in time. Oh well! I will FaceTime her on the day.

Okay, onto the card. I used the fabulous new Hand-Penned Petals Bundle. This is a two-step stamp set and die set (available separately and individually) and it will be available from tomorrow. It features line drawings and solid stamps to add colour. As you can see, the solid images do not perfectly match the line drawings. I confess it threw me at first but I love that it doesn’t have a perfect look. I actually used this stamp set in two different ways. The first way is as the focal point of the card. I simply stamped the line image and then added colour with the solid images. Very quick and easy. The second way I used it was to create the background of the card. This was also a quick and easy process. I stamped the line image in Versamark all over the card base and then heat embossed it. Next, I used a Water Painter to add some watered down ink to the flowers. It is such a fun look. I love this technique!

Here’s the first card…

Here’s the second card…

Which colour combination is your favourite? I can’t decide.

This is such a sweet card design and they really didn’t take long to make once I had worked out my design. I think you could try out many different colour combinations too. Don’t you think it would be fun to create a few cards like this to have on hand but just leave the sentiment off? You could add it later when required.

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

Happy Stamping, Kylie

A Wish for EverythingBirthdaysDesigner Series Paper

Happy Birthday (A Wish for Everything / True Love DSP)

by Kylie
written by Kylie

Hi everyone, I hope you are enjoying our feature on using the True Love Designer Series Paper. I’ve enjoyed showing some of the different ways to use this gorgeous paper. Today, I am showing how you can use a number of different papers all on one card to create a really lovely background. It’s quite simple! Once again, this design is one you can easily create a few to have on hand.

All I did was cut a few strips of the different papers from the True Love Designer Series Paper and layer them onto a cardstock base. Easy! You could add them on an angle, or vary the size but for my card, I layered them fairly evenly.

I finished the card with an off-centred sentiment using the A Wish for Everything stamp set and coordinating Word Wishes dies. I also added a flower that was cut out from one of the True Love Designer Series Papers.

You could make the sentiment section as detailed or as simple as you like. If you want the card to have more of a masculine feel, you could choose to use only the graphic designs from the True Love Designer Series Paper pack rather than including floral papers. It’s a design that offers such flexibility.

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

A Wish for EverythingCASE the CatalogueDesigner Series Paper

Wishing You a Happy Birthday (A Wish For Everything)

by Kylie
written by Kylie

Hi everyone, Happy Halloween! What a different experience it is going to be for many this year!  Halloween isn’t a big thing in Australia, although it is gaining popularity.  Not much happens in my neighbourhood most years.  The card I am sharing isn’t one you’d necessarily pick as being Halloween but I thought it seemed a perfect option for today.  The card uses items from the Magic In This Night suite which is the main offering from Stampin’ Up! for Halloween this year.  Stampin’ Up! is also the source of inspiration for my card.  I’m CASE-ing (Copy And Share Everything) a card they shared on their Facebook page yesterday.  It immediately grabbed my attention and I wanted to share the idea with you all.

First up, you’ll need the Magic In This Night Designer Series Paper.  Find the black floral image design, grab your Paper Snips and start cutting out all the different images.  To add colour, I scribbled the Pretty Peacock Stamp ‘N Write Marker on to an Acrylic Block.  With my Water Painter, I picked up some of the ink and watercoloured some of the images.  I had initially tried to colour directly on to the paper but I found it was too dark and you lost some of the detail of the paper.  I adhered the images to the cardstock panel.  Next up, I added my sentiment.  The stamped images are from A Wish For Everything.  The die is from the coordinating die set Word Wishes.   The sequins were the finishing touch.  I used the Artistry Blooms Adhesive-Backed Sequins as that was all I had on hand.  I first coloured the Balmy Blue sequins with the Dark Bermuda Bay Stampin’ Blends Marker but it wasn’t quite the right colour.  I then tried colouring over this with the Pretty Peacock Stamp ‘N Write Marker.  It did work but it can wipe off so I probably wouldn’t use this in the future. I’ll stick to using Stampin’ Blends to colour sequins and rhinestones.

Here’s the card…

Isn’t it awesome? I love the dark colours with the Pretty Peacock.  It’s so different!  I think it would also look fabulous when combined with Blackberry Bliss too!  I hope you’ll give it a go!

A Wish for EverythingBloom & GrowMother's Day

Happy Mother’s Day (Bloom & Grow / A Wish For Everything)

by Kylie
written by Kylie

Hi everyone!  Happy Mother’s Day to all the Mum’s out there.  I know this is a difficult day for some of my readers for many different reasons, and not just because of the isolation due to the current pandemic, and to you, I send my very best wishes.

Today’s card is the one I have made for my Mum.  I have been feeling very uninspired creatively lately.  When this happens I have a few things I do to try and kickstart the mojo including picking up the Stampin’ Up! catalogue and looking at all the gorgeous samples.  I decided to CASE (Copy And Share Everything) the pretty Christmas card on page 16 of the 2019-2020 Annual Catalogue.  I thought this would transition perfectly into a Mother’s Day card.  I used the Bloom & Grow stamp set for the beautiful floral images and teamed it with the Word Wishes dies and the A Wish for Everything stamp set (available as a bundle for a 10% discount).  You might also notice the extra texture in the background.  This is from the gorgeous Springtimes Impressions dies.  It’s a fantastic die set.

Here’s the Card…

 

I think the card is super pretty and I just know I am going to make more cards in this style.  If you give it a go too, please share with me.  I’d love to see your creations!

I hope you all have a wonderful day and that you spend some time, even if only via video chat, with your loved one’s today.

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

A Wish for EverythingBirthdaysForever Blossoms

Happy Birthday (Forever Blossoms)

by Kylie
written by Kylie

Hi everyone, today I am sharing a card featuring the gorgeous Forever Blossoms stamp set. I had coloured the floral image from this stamp set a couple of weeks ago and it was lying on my desk just waiting to be used.  I was aiming for a really soft and pretty card.  I paired the floral image with a panel of Whisper White Cardstock which had been die cut with a Stitched Nested Labels die and then embossed with the Parisian Flourish 3D Embossing Folder.  I also embossed the card base with the Subtles Embossing Folder (my favourite embossing folder, and currently on sale ion the Clearance Rack) to soften the look a little.

Here’s the card…

 

Oh, it is so pretty in real life! I think if I was to make this card again I might try some of the really pretty patterned paper from the Parisian Blossoms Specialty Designer Series Paper packs.  In fact, watch this space…I am going to try this!  Will be interesting to see which version we all prefer!

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