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

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!

Designer Series PaperSale-A-BrationSo SentimentalThank you

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

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!

I Can’t Thank You Enough (So Sentimental)

Hi everyone, today’s card uses the new Pleased as Punch Designer Series Paper as the main focal point.  I thought the paper was so very pretty (the whole pack is!) and I wanted to make it a feature in its own right.  I sometimes do this with floral papers but as you can see it looks pretty effective with paper like this too.

Oh, you might also notice the white patterned paper along the edge of the main block.  This was created using the Braided Border Punch.  I thought it gave a subtle but interesting effect.

Here’s the card…

 

This is a really pretty card, and so simple to make too.  You could also switch up the colours of the sentiment and make a whole bunch of them at the one time.  Additionally, you could switch out the Daffodil Delight Ruched Ribbon and use the Whisper White Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon instead for another variation.

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

CASE the CatalogueSo SentimentalThank you

I Can’t Thank You Enough (So Sentimental)

by Kylie
written by Kylie

Hi everyone, today’s card is a direct CASE (Copy And Share Everything) of a card featured in the new January to June 2020 Mini Catalogue.  When I first saw this design, I was like, “oh, I haven’t done anything like that in AGES”.  The technique immediately went onto my to-do list.  I actually love the whole design of the card that I’ve recreated it very faithfully.  It’s so fun!  So, what is the idea?  The idea is to use die cuts to create a cool background.  (You can also use punches).

The Stitched So Sweetly Dies have some great scalloped rectangle dies but they also have four other really fun shapes as well.  I originally only thought about these shapes as being used with sentiments but when I saw the example it opened up a whole new design world.

For the card below, I repeatedly die cut one of the shapes and then layered it over the card base to create a pretty pattern.  Another option would be to use an embossing mat with your die cut machine and simply emboss the shape but I really wanted that textured look.

To finish off the card I used my Stamparatus to stamp the sentiment using a stamp from the So Sentimental stamp set.  It is so easy to stamp multiple colours using the Stamparatus.  Then die cut the sentiment out.  The floral images are actually preprinted die cuts from the Peaceful Poppies Elements pack.  The leaves are also from this pack.  The interesting thing about the leaves is that they have white printing on a watercolour paper and you add your desired colour.  It’s very cool!

Here’s the card…

It’s a really cool effect isn’t it?!  It also looks really good with word dies too.  It doesn’t just have to be basic shapes.  I hope you’ll give it a try.

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