StampingPals Challenge #7 | Colour Challenge

by Kylie September 1, 2020

written by Kylie

Hi everyone! Today I am participating in the September StampingPals Challenge. This month we were challenged to create a card using at least three of the new Stampin’ Up! In Colours as our inspiration. You can also use a neutral such as Basic Black, Whisper White or Very Vanilla.

Here’s our Challenge…

Here’s my card…

I used the fantastic Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set and coordinating Sunflowers dies (also available as a bundle for a 10% discount). It’s a gorgeous set and I loved colouring it with my Stampin’ Blends!

I hope you will play along with us this month. All the details are on the StampingPals blog.

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

Blog Hop Challenge Ornate Style Pattern Play Peaceful Moments Stampers Anonymous

Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #21: Colour Challenge

by Kylie August 14, 2020

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…

Blog Hop Challenge Sketch Stampers Anonymous

Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #20: Sketch Challenge

by Kylie July 14, 2020

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.

Blog Hop Challenge Forever Fern Stampers Anonymous Technique Video

Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #19: Colour Challenge

by Kylie June 14, 2020

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 June’s Blog Hop is a Colour Challenge. For colour challenges, we are assigned certain colours and we must use them all but we can also use Basic Black, Whisper White and/or Very Vanilla.

Here are the colours…

Here’s my card…

At first, I was really struggling with the colours. They are outside, for the most part, my go-to colours. Then I remembered the fabulous Joseph’s Coat Technique. I realised these colours would look AMAZING popping up through the black. I’ve also created a video so you can see the process for yourself. It’s a fun one and I hope you’ll give it a go.

Here’s the video…

Hi everyone! Today I am participating in the May StampingPals Challenge. This months challenge is the theme of Birthdays.

Here’s our Challenge…

Here’s my card…

I tried to do something a little different by using my dies to create balloons. I think the card design needs a little finessing but overall I am happy with the concept. This was another fun challenge. I hope you will play along with us. All the details are on the StampingPals blog.

Beautifully Braided Challenge Stampers Anonymous

Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #17: Colour Challenge

by Kylie April 14, 2020

written by Kylie

Hi everyone and welcome to the Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop day! Thanks so much for hopping with us. The theme for today’s Blog Hop is a Colour Challenge. I love a good colour challenge but boy, sometimes I find them to be so difficult. This one was one of those extra challenging colour combos. We had to use Melon Mambo, Bermuda Bay, and Smoky Slate. They are gorgeous colours but I did have trouble making them work together.

Here’s our Challenge…

Here’s my card…

I used the really pretty Beautifully Braided stamp set. I realise the ginkgo leaves are supposed be green but I really love it in Melon Mambo. For me, I found the easiest way to use the three colours was to use a lot of white space.

Let’s continue on the hop…

Blog Hop Challenge Ornate Style Seriously the Best Sketch Stampers Anonymous Technique

Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop 16: Sketch Challenge

by Kylie March 14, 2020

written by Kylie

Hi everyone and welcome to the Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop day! Thanks so much for hopping with us. The theme for today’s Blog Hop is a Sketch Challenge. I love a good sketch challenge. They challenge me to think outside of my normal square, and they are also great as a starting point when the mojo goes missing.

Here’s our Challenge…

Here’s my card…

This card was created using the Joseph‘s Coat Technique. I hadn’t done this technique for ages and thought it would be fun to revisit. You might also notice something new in this card. I’m using a stamp from the Ornate Style stamp set. This stamp set is part of a new suite debuting in the next Annual Catalogue. It’s really pretty! I also used stamps from the Seriously the Best stamp set for the sentiment. I *love* this stamp set. I cannot stop using it!

Challenge StampingPals

StampingPals Challenge #1: Colour Challenge

by Kylie March 1, 2020

written by Kylie

Hi everyone! Today I am participating in the first-ever challenge through the StampingPals Challenge Blog. I developed the StampingPals Challenge blog with my friends Melissa Gifford and Jill Arenovski. I have really enjoyed participating in challenges through Stampers Anonymous and Kylie’s International Training Group. I wanted a place where other people could join in too and we could build a really fun, warm and inspirational community. I would LOVE it if you would spread the word AND play along with us!

The first StampingPals Challenge is a Colour Challenge. Our colours are Melon Mambo, Granny Apple Green and Mango Melody. We can also add Whisper White, Basic Black or Very Vanilla as our neutral.

Here’s our Challenge…

I love these colours but they are super bright. They also lend themselves to creating flowers. I grabbed my favourite Forever Blossoms and went to town colouring. I had started colouring the leaves first using the Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends when I realised Melon Mambo is not currently available in the Stampin’ Blends range. Oops! No way was I going to throw away the work I had already done. I simply grabbed the Melon Mambo Stampin’ Write marker, my Aqua Painter and started to paint the petals instead. It came up so well and really softened the appearance of the Melon Mambo. This is also how I dyed the Whisper White Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon.

Here’s my card…

I really love this card! It is so pretty in real life. I loved this challenge and I hope you will too. Please stop by the StampingPals blog and play along with us.

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