Bloom By Bloom Petal Palette Simple Stamping

Life is so much better… (Bloom by Bloom/Petal Palette)

by Kylie February 22, 2019

written by Kylie

Hi everyone, the Bloom by Bloom stamp set features some beautiful imagery. I don’t tend to create with solid stamps very often because of my love of colouring but they are really fun to create with so I am going to make sure I use them more often. One great idea, which is also so simple and quick to do, is to create your own colourful background papers with them. The Bloom by Bloom stamp set is perfect for this.

Here’s the Card…

Once the background was stamped, I added it to a card base. I decided to emboss the sentiment (from the Petal Palette stamp set) but you could make this card design even easier by missing the embossing step. A ribbon (this particular one is sadly no longer available) and some rhinestones finish off the design.

With such a simple design you could easily make lots of cards in one sitting. It would also be fun to try different colour combinations. I hope you will give it a go!

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

Thank You (Bloom by Bloom / Petal Palette)

Hi everyone, last week I participated in a Blog Hop with my Stampers Anonymous team and it was so much fun. Since I still had supplies out on my desk I thought it might be fun to see what other ideas I could come up with using the colours suggested in the Blog Hop (but not necessarily obeying the rules of the challenge). I used the Bloom by Bloom stamp set which was released in the Occasions catalogue, and the Petal Palette stamp set from the Annual Catalogue.

Here’s my Card…

This card was so quick and simple to make. I really love how it came together too. It would be so easy to quickly whip up a few cards like this. I think it would be great to play around with different colour combinations too.

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

Blog Hop Bloom By Bloom Challenge Petal Palette Stampers Anonymous

Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop 3: Colour Challenge 1

by Kylie February 14, 2019

written by Kylie

Hi everyone, Happy Valentine’s Day but more importantly – Happy Blog Hop day! Yay! I love participating in these challenges as they really help me to think outside the square. Our blog hop is a colour challenge inspired by the Organdy Ribbon Combo Pack. The challenge was to use three or more colours (Balmy Blue, Daffodil Delight, Grapefruit Grove, Highland Heather and Lemon Lime Twist) with Basic Black, Whisper White and/or Very Vanilla.

Here’s the Challenge…

Here’s my Card…

I chose Highland Heather, Lemon Lime Twist and to be honest I nearly forgot the third colour. Fortunately, when I asked my friends for some advice regarding my card my sweet friend, Melissa, reminded me that I needed another colour. That’s where the dot stamp from the Bloom By Bloom stamp set came in handy as I used it to add Daffodil Delight to my centre panel.

Next on the hop is: Sharon Wilson

Here’s a list of all the participants:

Melissa Gifford

Meighan Wheller

This was such a FUN challenge! It is great to work with colours and colour combinations you aren’t usually drawn to. I’ve been so inspired that I actually have another few cards on the go using this same palette.

The only disappointing thing to share is that the Organdy Ribbon Combo Pack is currently unavailable. It has been immensely popular! It’s such a pretty set of ribbon. Don’t worry though, there are still plenty of lovely options to choose as your free item during Sale-A-Bration.

I hope you loved seeing my card and that you enjoy the rest of the blog hop.

Jake Personal Petal Palette

Life is so much better with you in it (Petal Palette)

by Kylie April 23, 2018

written by Kylie

Hi, it is such an exciting time in the Stampin’ Up! year. I have now seen the new catalogue and let me tell you, you are going to LOVE it! There are some amazing stamp sets and papers coming. I will share more as soon as I can! If you saw my Facebook Live last week you will have had a few sneak peeks at what is coming, including the new style inkpads and the new In Colours!

It’s been a while since I have shared any ideas with you all and I thank you for your patience. My little distraction, Jake, is nearly 12 weeks old and he’s been home for just over two weeks. He is a bundle of energy and cuteness. I am completely smitten with him. He’s learning so quickly but we still have a long way to go with his training.

Here’s my Jake…

I may be biased (okay, I am totally biased) but I think he is adorable! While he was amusing himself with a ball today I took the opportunity to craft. It has been a while! The first thing on my agenda was to finish the card I was making when Jake arrived. I had completed the background and it has been sitting on my desk untouched for all this time.

Here’s the card…

For the above card, I stamped and embossed the floral image from the gorgeous Petal Palette stamp set. I then used my Aqua Painter and some Pool Party ink to add a little extra interest to the background. I’ve done this technique many times in the past as it is one of my favourite techniques. I love this look!

Next step was to stamp, colour and die cut the bird. After cutting out the bird, I immediately thought of a birdcage which then made me decide to use silver foil sheets for the rest of the decorative elements and silver embossing powder for the sentiment. I thought it would add a bit of a wow factor to the card.

I used the Pool Party Stampin’ Blends marker to colour the Whisper White Organza Ribbon as I wanted it to match the card perfectly. All that was left was to put it all together.

I think this is a really pretty card and one which you could easily replicate with other colour combinations. I hope you’ll give it a go!

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

CASE the Catalogue Occasions Petal Palette Petal Passion

Let’s CASE the Catalogue with two Thank You Cards (Petal Palette)

by Kylie April 5, 2018

written by Kylie

Hi, today’s cards are another from my CASE the Catalogue series. The two cards have been created using the Petal Passion Suite of products. The suite features some really lovely, and beautifully coordinated products. I hope you are loving them as much as I am.

For today’s cards, the actual designs are exactly the same as featured in the catalogue. Where the difference comes in is with the paper I used for the middle panel. I wanted to experiment with painting with inks, using my Aqua Painters, on Watercolour Paper and the Shimmery White Cardstock. I wanted to see how easy it was to paint on each surface, how vibrant the colours were when they dried and whether or not the Shimmery White Cardstock would pill.

The first card features the Watercolour Paper. It stamped up beautifully and then used a combination of Pink Pirouette ink with just a touch of Melon Mambo to give a little extra depth, to paint the flowers. The leaves were painted using Old Olive ink. The background was a wash of Pool Party Ink.

Whilst the Watercolour Paper is beautiful to paint on, I thought the Old Olive ink I had selected made the image look a little flat. I added some Wink of Stella, and some Rhinestones, to give the panel a little lift.

Here’s the card…

For the next card, I used the Shimmery White Cardstock as my base. It handled the water really well. I used the same colours of ink for the background and the flower but changed my leaves to be painted with Lemon Lime Twist. I think it really gave the card a little lift.

Here’s the card…

It was fun to experiment with the two different papers and interesting to see the final look. I love water colouring and can’t wait to do more in the future. Do you like to watercolour too?

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

CASE the Catalogue Occasions Petal Palette Petal Passion Thank you

Thank You (Petal Palette)

by Kylie April 3, 2018

written by Kylie

Hi, I hope you have all had a very happy Easter! Did you have time to create over this long weekend? I managed to squeeze a little in but my mojo seemed to have gone on its own holiday. One of the things I do when my mojo leaves town is to CASE the catalogue. As I have said many times in the past, the catalogue (and my blog) is here to inspire you when the ideas seem hard to come by. All you have to remember is that you must give credit when it is due (when posting online). I’ve really wanted to do more with the Petal Passion Suite. I love the entire suite but haven’t given it much love lately. I love all of the examples in the catalogue too and have been wanting to recreate them so that’s what I have done today.

For this card, you will need the Petal Passion Memories & More Card Pack, the Petal Palette stamp set and the coordinating Petals & More Thinlits dies (which is also available as a bundle for a 10% discount). You could also use one of the papers from the Petal Passion Designer Series Paper if you like.

Start by selecting two cards from the Petal Passion Memories & More Card Pack – one for the card base and one for the second layer. Stamp the dots stamp from the Petal Palette stamp set on the top card with Pool Party ink. Stamp the little bird in Memento ink as you will be colouring it with Stampin’ Blends markers. Stamp the sentiment on Pool Party cardstock. Die cut out the bird, the leaf die, the little decorative element and the label die while you have the Big Shot out. All that is left to do is assemble the elements on the card. Don’t forget to add the lovely Petal Passion Elements.

Here’s the card…

Isn’t it a lovely design! It isn’t exactly the same as the card in the catalogue but it is pretty close. When CASE-ing the catalogue, you don’t have to recreate it exactly. Just use it for inspiration. Sometimes you might want to recreate the card as closely as possible, other times, you might select to use the colour combinations or the card design. For me, I thought it might be fun to try this card in a different colourway. I’ve used the same design but have substituted the Pool Party with Pink Pirouette.

Here’s the card…

I hope you will give this card a try too. I think it would also look really pretty done in oranges and reds too. What colours do you think would look great?

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

Occasions One Big Meaning Petal Palette Sale-A-Bration Stampin' Blends

A trio of cards (Springtime Foils Specialty DSP)

by Kylie February 26, 2018

written by Kylie

Hi, just when you thought I had stepped away from using the Springtime Foils Specialty Designer Series Paper, I’m back with not one, but three cards! I love this paper! I’m sure you can tell that!

This is another set of cards where they are similar but different. Cards like these are great because all I do is vary one or two items (such as the design, colour, sentiment, or embellishments) and the cards look completely different. It shows that you can use the same supplies and create a never-ending number of cards. Of course, when you then throw in other card designs, use different stamps sets in combination you can make even more cards. It really helps you get the most out of your crafting investments.

For all three cards, all I did was colour the Floral design from the Springtime Foils Specialty Designer Series Paper with my Stampin’ Blends. I picked out different colour combinations as I was curious as to how the different colours might look. (And forgive the colouring, I did so in low light and hadn’t realised it was a little ‘rough’). Next, I mounted each panel on gold but I positioned them in different places on the card bases.

I stamped my chosen sentiments in Versamark ink and gold embossed them so they would coordinate with the gold foil sheets. I then adhered them all to card bases. Quick, easy and they look so good!

Here’s the first card…

Here’s the second card…

Here’s the third card…

I love this look and I have really enjoyed creating with the gorgeous Springtime Foils Specialty Designer Series Paper (which you can earn for free, with a qualifying order, during Sale-A-Bration). I really love all three colour combinations but today I think the Pool Party card is my favourite. Do you have a favourite?

Petal Palette Sale-A-Bration

Thank You (Springtime Foils Specialty DSP)

by Kylie February 23, 2018

written by Kylie

Hi, I’m back with another card using the Springtime Foils Specialty Designer Series Paper. I hope you don’t mind seeing more cards using this paper as I cannot seem to put it away. Today’s card is so simple. You could easily whip up a few really quickly.

I started by colouring the Springtime Foils Speciality DSP with only four Stampin’ Blends – Light Old Olive, Light Daffodil Delight and Dark Daffodil Delight. Once again, no fancy shading. I just added the colour. I then added it to a panel of gold. This was then popped up on one of the Sale-A-Bration Tutti-Frutti card bases.

Next up I stamped the sentiment in Versamark Ink and embossed it in gold. I used the Triple Banner Punch to create the flag end. To add a little more interest, I added an accent of gold paper which I punched out using the Ticket Tear Border Punch. Then I popped up the sentiment using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

So quick and easy and I think it looks so pretty too!

Here’s the card…

Doesn’t it look great? I hope you’ll give it a try!

Petal Palette Sale-A-Bration

Life is so much better with you in it (Springtime Foils Specialty DSP)

by Kylie February 17, 2018

written by Kylie

Hi, I cannot stop colouring the Springtime Foils Specialty Designer Series Paper – particularly the beautiful floral design. It is so addictive, and relaxing! You don’t have to colour the paper as it looks amazing just as it is! I love to colour though and I love the different looks you can achieve.

For today’s card I coloured the Springtime Foils Specialty DSP with just a few of my Stampin’ Blends – Light Old Olive, Dark Daffodil Delight, Light Pink Pirouette and Dark Pink Pirouette. I didn’t do any fancy shading, just added colour. So, if you think you need to be a whiz with colouring, you really don’t need to be to create this card. I adhered this completed sheet to a Whisper White thick cardstock base.

Next up I stamped the sentiment in Versamark Ink and embossed it in gold before cutting it out with a stitched circle die. I added this to a scalloped circle die cut from Pink Pirouette cardstock. This panel was then attached to the card so it hung over the edge. The overhang was trimmed off.

To finish off the card I added some Whisper White Bakers twine but then I decided the card needed one last thing – BLING! With my Pink Pirouette marker I coloured a few rhinestones and then added them to the card.

Another way to vary this card design is to pop up the sentiment panel with Stampin’ Dimensionals, and run the twine (or even a pretty ribbon) underneath.

Here’s the card…

Isn’t is so pretty with the softness of the Pink Pirouette Stampin’ Blends? This card design would also look amazing if done in Pool Party, Calypso Coral, Daffodil Delight or even a combination of Dark Pink Pirouette and Light Rich Razzleberry. What other colours do you think it would work with?

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