Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #24: Sketch Challenge

by Kylie
written by Kylie

Hi everyone and welcome to Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop day!  Thanks so much for hopping with us this month.  The theme for our November Blog Hop is a Sketch Challenge.

Here is the challenge…

 

I love a good sketch challenge and when I saw this sketch I thought it would be fun to create a shaker card.  Of course, this meant I had to use the Whale of a Time suite because…well, I love everything about it!  As well as adding sequins to my shaker, I also cut out some of the smaller images from the Whale of a Time paper and added these too, to add a little more interest.

For those of you who also follow me on Facebook, you may have noticed I had a *teeny tiny* issue while making this card. I added all the foam adhesive strips to my cardstock BEFORE adding the window sheet. Oh boy!  Fortunately, I was able to remove the adhesive from the circle area without destroying the cardstock.  Phew!

Here’s my card…

Here’s a close up of the shaker section…

It was such a fun card to make!  Okay, let’s go see what everyone else has been making.

Let’s continue on the hop…

Blog HopForever FernSo SentimentalThank you

Bruno and Kylie’s Demonstrator Support Program Blog Hop November 2020

by Kylie
written by Kylie

Hi everyone, I’m excited to again participate in Bruno and Kylie’s Demonstrator Support Program Blog Hop.  The training program brings together Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators from around the world to learn tips and tricks to grow and improve our businesses.  We get to network and participate in crafting activities such as this fun blog hop.  Today we are sharing our Thank You cards for the month. I love making Thank You cards – and I make a lot of them!

Thank you for hopping onto my blog.  Maybe you are starting here or you have come from another blog – either way you can find a full list of participants further down my blog.
My card features the Forever Fern and So Sentimental stamp sets.  I stamped an assortment of the stamps from the Forever Fern stamp set and then heat embossed with White Embossing Powder.  When it was completely dry, I used my Stampin’ Blends to add some colour to the white embossed images.  I started out using the Light Stampin’ Blends markers but some of the images didn’t necessarily have the impact I was after.  I coloured over the top of some of the paler images with the Dark Stampin’ Blends and that really gave the images the WOW impact I was after.
Here’s the card…

This card was inspired by this card created by Ashley Van Camp and shared with me by my upline Melissa Gifford.

Here are all the participants…



Thanks for hopping with us.  I’m sure you will be as WOWed as I am by all the amazing creations shared today.

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

Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #23: Colour Challenge

by Kylie
written by Kylie

Hi everyone and welcome to Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop day!  Thanks so much for hopping with us this month.  The theme for October’s Blog Hop is a Colour Challenge.  Our challenge was to use Pretty Peacock, Calypso Coral and Crushed Curry (all must be used) on a card. We were also permitted to use Basic Black, Whisper White, Very Vanilla and/or Crumb Cake.

Here is the challenge…

Here’s my card…

Let me say from the outset, this was a huge challenge for me!  I rarely use these colours and would probably never have thought to use all three together.  And, this is one of the reasons I *love* our monthly challenges.  It can be so easy to stick with the colours, stamps, designs, etc that you are used to but with prompts like this, we step outside of the familiar.  It can be liberating!

I ended up using the Love of Leaves Stamp Set, the coordinating Stitched Leaves dies (available as a bundle for a 10% discount) and the Ornate Frames dies.

Let’s continue on the hop…

Blog HopCelebrate SunflowersDesigner Series PaperTechnique

Kylie’s Demonstrator Support Program Blog Hop October 2020

by Kylie
written by Kylie

Hi everyone and welcome to the first blog hop for Kylie’s Demonstrator Support Program for the new Stampin’ Up! year.  I so enjoyed hopping with everyone over the past 12 months that I signed up to do it again this new year.  The blog hops happen on a monthly basis and it is a fun activity which allows you to express your creativity and see how others express theirs.  I love hopping to each of the blogs and leaving a comment.

Thank you for hopping onto my blog.  Maybe you are starting here or you have come from another blog – either way you can find the link list at the bottom of this post so that you can see every blog post and idea shared today.
The card I am sharing today is a Thank You card you might receive from me when you order through my online store.  It is made with the same technique I shared yesterday (there’s also a video if you’d like to see it in a little more detail).   It’s a super simple card but looks so very pretty.
Pick some Designer Series Paper you like (and, yay, selected papers are on sale this month) and punch out lots of shapes with the Tailored Tag punch.  I used papers from the Flowers for Every Season 6×6 Designer Series Paper pack.  Adhere the punched pieces on to a separate cardstock panel, trim the excess and add to your card base.  You can step up the card at this point by adding an extra mat layer, or you can keep it simple as I have done here.   To finish the card I added the sentiment (which was from the Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set), some ribbon and Rhinestones.
Tip: If you don’t have coordinating ribbon, you can dye white ribbon with your Stampin’ Blends markers as I did for this card.
Here’s the card…

 

Here are all of the participants…



Thanks for hopping with us.  Don’t you agree everyone is so creative and talented.  It’s always so inspiring seeing all the gorgeous cards and projects!

On Sale!

You can save 15% on selected Designer Series Paper during the month of October 2020.

Kylie’s Demonstrator Training Blog Hop – September 2020

by Kylie
written by Kylie

Hi everyone and welcome to the last Kylie’s Stampin’ Up!® Demonstrator Training Monthly Team Blog Hop day for the current Stampin’ Up! year.  Wow!  I cannot believe this year’s training is almost at an end.  Thank you for hopping with us.

Maybe you are starting here or you have come from another blog – either way you can find the link list at the bottom of this post so that you can see every blog post and idea shared today.
I really love it when you find a stamp set which can be used in ways which are different from the original design.  Today’s card features a stamp from the Love of Leaves stamp set.  This set is filled with leaf stamps but one of them reminded me so much of a heart and I thought it would look so good hanging from a branch or line.  I added the stripes stamp from the Pattern Play stamp set to an acrylic block but I manipulated it so it was curved.  I inked up one line only and then stamped this down.  My hearts were going to hang on this line.  I stamped the leaf stamp in Melon Mambo, Mango Melody, Granny Apple Green, Coastal Cabana and Highland Heather inks along the line at different lengths.  I didn’t worry too much if they were crooked but if this worries you, you could use a Stamparatus to ensure they are all perfectly lined up.
The LOVE was created by adding Foam Adhesive Sheets to a strip of Melon Mambo cardstock.  I then ran it through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine.  The final touch was some Wink of Stella on the hearts (be careful as this will make the ink move) and some Rhinestones.
Here’s the card…

Hi everyone and welcome to Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop day!  Thanks so much for hopping with us this month.  The theme for September’s Blog Hop is a Sketch Challenge.

Here is the Sketch…

Here’s my card…

This was such a fun challenge.  I knew immediately I was going to use items from the Playful Pets suite.  This suite is so fun and it offers something for both the dog lover and the cat lover.  I decided to make a very simple card – mostly black and white but with small pops of colour.  You could easily substitute the dog image for one of the card images.  If you don’t like to colour, you could always cut out the dog images for the coordinating patterned paper.

Let’s continue on the hop…

Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #21: Colour Challenge

by Kylie
written by Kylie

Hi everyone and welcome to Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop day!  Thanks so much for hopping with us this month.  The theme for August’s Blog Hop is a Colour Challenge.  For this challenge, we were challenged to use at least two of the new In Colours.  We were also allowed to team them with any other colours from the Stampin’ Up! colour families.

Here are the In Colours…

Here’s my card…

This card came about a little bit by accident.  I had been playing around with lots of different colour combinations as I was thinking of making a really bright and colourful card.  I then decided I might use a bleach technique for my card.  I stamped and embossed in white, the floral image from the Ornate Style stamp set on Misty Moonlight cardstock.  It looked so lovely so I thought instead of using bleach I might just add a highlight of white in the centre of the flowers.  Well, I got a little heavy-handed and the next thing I know I had covered the whole panel.  I loved the look!  It kind of looks like an acid wash denim in real life.  It’s so pretty (much prettier in real life)!  Of course, I still had to add another colour in order to meet the terms of the challenge so some pretty hearts from the Pattern Play stamp set were the choice.  I did stamp off the Magenta Madness ink a couple of times as I didn’t want it to overwhelm the sentiment (from the Peaceful Moments stamp set).

Let’s continue on the hop…

Kylie’s Demonstrator Training Blog Hop – August 2020

written by Kylie

Hi everyone and welcome to Kylie’s Stampin’ Up!® Demonstrator Training Monthly Team Blog Hop day!  Thanks so much for hopping with us.   We are a group of Stampin’ Up!® Demonstrators from around the world who are taking part in specialised training focusing on helping us grow a successful Stampin’ Up!® business.  We all really appreciate your support.

Maybe you are starting here or you have come from another blog – either way you can find the link list at the bottom of this post so that you can see every blog post and idea shared today.
Today I am sharing simple card using the Basket of Blooms stamp set.  It is such a sweet set which you can use to make all kinds of wonderful floral bouquets.  I teamed it with the Happy Birthday sentiment from the Timeless Tulips stamp set. My idea for this card was to create a pot plant in front of a lattice-type structure and I thought the reverse side of one of the Forever Gold Laser-Cut Specialty Paper die-cuts would be ideal.  I sponged it with Rococo Rose ink to tone in with the card base.
This card does have a little bit of fussy cutting as the Basket of Blooms stamp set does not have a coordinating die set but there are some really simple ways to make this process easier.  Check out my Facebook Live from last week for some of these ideas.
Here’s the card…

Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #20: Sketch Challenge

written by Kylie

Hi everyone and welcome to Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop day!  Thanks so much for hopping with us this month.  The theme for July’s Blog Hop is a Sketch Challenge.

Here is the sketch…

 

Here’s my card…

My card features papers from the gorgeous Flowers For Every Season Designer Series Paper pack.  Of course, I had to make things a little more complicated for myself as I decided to fussy cut out the floral images and adhere them to Whisper White cardstock.  I thought the red background of this particular paper was just a little too much for my design.

I also used the fantastic new Foam Adhesive Sheets to pop up my die cut sentiment (from the Well Written Die Set).  All you need to do is apply the sheets to your paper, add the die-cut and run it through your die-cutting machine.  Makes it SO easy to get that extra bit of dimension for your sentiments.

My other big tip of the day is when using Vellum in the Dainty Diamond Embossing Folder also add a sheet of cardstock.  Otherwise, the vellum gets stuck in the folder and will tear when you try to remove it.

 

Let’s continue on the hop…

Today I am sharing two cards featuring the GORGEOUS Peony Garden Designer Series Paper.  This paper pack has 12 sheets of paper (2 each of 6 designs) and one of the designs just called out to be used with the Spotlight Technique.  For this technique, you highlight one area of the paper and add colour while the rest remains plain.  It’s beautiful!  I couldn’t resist making two cards using this technique.
Here’s the first card…
