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 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…

Here’s the second card…

Birthdays Designer Series Paper Sale-A-Bration Well Said

Happy Birthday (Flowering Foils SDSP / So Very Vellum / Well Said)

by Kylie March 30, 2020

written by Kylie

Hi everyone, with the end of Sale-A-Bration just around the corner, I wanted to continue to give love to my favourite Sale-A-Bration item – the gorgeous Flowering Foils Specialty Designer Series Paper. I’ve again teamed it with the So Very Vellum Specialty Designer Series Paper. Soft Sea Foam has very quickly become a favourite colour of mine, and it is all thanks to this vellum paper. The floral image was coloured with Soft Sea Foam and Petal Pink. Doesn’t it look beautiful?

I finished off the card with the Word Wishes dies (also available as part of the A Wish For Everything bundle) and the Well Said stamp set. The Copper Foil Sheets matches with this paper perfectly!

Here’s the Card…

I am going to be so sad when Sale-A-Bration ends and these gorgeous papers are no longer available. If you want to get your hands on it, you have until the 31st March 2020. It can be yours with a qualifying order of $90.

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

Birthdays Designer Series Paper Label Me Bold Sale-A-Bration

Happy Birthday (Flowering Foils / Label Me Bold)

by Kylie March 12, 2020

written by Kylie

Hi everyone, the Flowering Foils Specialty Designer Series Paper is one of my favourite items from Sale-A-Bration. I’ve made quite a few cards using just the large floral image sheet alone. Today I am sharing another card which features this beautiful paper. It also has a really cool technique using the Coastal Weave 3D Embossing Folder. It is so simple but it adds that extra little something to the background. I’ve also made another video so you can see my process exactly. Let’s go take a look…

Here’s the Card…

Here’s the Video…

I hope you’ll give the technique with the embossing folder a try too. It’s super easy and looks so good.

If you love this paper as much as I do you can order it as a freebie with an order over $90 during Sale-A-Bration. Sale-A-Bration does end on 31 March 2020.

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

Designer Series Paper Sale-A-Bration So Sentimental Thank you

I Can’t Thank You Enough (So Sentimental / Flowering Foils SDSP)

by Kylie March 4, 2020

written by Kylie

Hi everyone, the new Sale-A-Bration release went live yesterday. One of my favourite items from this release is the Flowering Foils Specialty Designer Series Paper. I have been loving creating with this gorgeous paper. Today I am sharing a card which, I think, looks like it took me a while but really, it took no time at all. All I did was take a piece of the Flowering Foils paper and colour the background. I added a bit of extra flair with some vellum die-cut pieces and some ribbon. And voila! The card was complete.

Here’s the Card…

While I coloured my background with ink and an Aqua Painter, you could also use your Stampin’ Blends to add colour. I think this is a style of card you could easily whip up a few for the stash.

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

CASE the Catalogue Designer Series Paper Painted Poppies Peaceful Moments

Thinking of you with all my heart (Peaceful Poppies DSP / Peaceful Moments)

by Kylie January 10, 2020

written by Kylie

Hi everyone, sometimes life gets super busy and it is hard to be as creative as you might like. In times like this, I might turn to the Stampin’ Up! catalogue for inspiration, and sometimes I just flat out CASE a card. (CASE means Copy And Share Everything). You can copy the card faithfully or try and change it up a bit. For today’s card, I have copied the card quite faithfully from the catalogue.

The main feature of the card is a gorgeous piece of patterned paper from the Peaceful Poppies Designer Series Paper. The beauty of this particular printed design is that you can cut the paper into 6 pieces and you will end up with 6 beautiful, really easy to make, cards.

Do you love the look of the multi-coloured sentiment? I used the Stamparatus to create it. I’m all for making things simple so I usually ink up my stamp in the lighter colour first. Stamp the image. Then I clean the stamp (and make sure it is clean AND dry) and ink up the words I want in a darker shade. I then stamp again. This makes the process so much faster when you have a very dark ink going over the top,

Here’s the card…

Isn’t the paper gorgeous? I really love this whole suite.

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)

by Kylie September 30, 2019

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).

Designer Series Paper Dino Days

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

by Kylie September 26, 2019

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…

The Dinoroar 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.

Bird Ballad DSP Designer Series Paper Free As A Bird

Hello (Free as a Bird / Bird Ballad)

by Kylie September 22, 2019

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!

Designer Series Paper Holiday Catalogue Hostess Sale

Welcome to September (Designer Series Paper Sale/Holiday Catalogue/Hostess Code)

by Kylie September 4, 2019

written by Kylie

Hi everyone! Happy September! Every month when I sit down to write a welcome to the new month I cannot believe how fast the year is passing by. Reminds me of the quote by Gretchen Reubin, “The days are long, but the years are short.” Some days are super long. They are the days we are not spending stamping instead we are on the phone to different telecommunications companies trying to get internet. Oh you guys, it’s painful! I’m on to my third provider (I’m caught up in an NBN wasteland) and am quietly confident that I will have internet in a week…or so. Keep your fingers crossed for me! As for my craft room, I can walk around the boxes in the middle of it. haha I’m closer to being able to create in it, and I cannot wait. I am missing it SO MUCH!

Anyway, enough about me, let’s get into the AWESOMENESS that is coming your way this month – from the new Holiday Catalogue going live to the fabulous Designer Series Paper sale. It’s so good. Let’s get into it…
