Butterfly BrillianceItty Bitty GreetingsThank you

Many Thanks (Butterfly Brilliance / Itty Bitty Greetings)

by Kylie
written by Kylie

Hi everyone, today I am sharing a sneak peek at a couple of products which are coming next month. I think you are going to love them. The new Butterfly Brilliance is one stamp but features six (6) different butterflies. There is a coordinating die set called Brilliant Wings and it features twelve (12) dies. One die cuts out all of the butterflies and it also cuts out images from the, you guessed it, coordinating Designer Series Paper. The Butterfly Bijou 6×6 Designer Series Paper is so pretty.

I needed to make a ‘thank you’ card for a sweet, fellow Demonstrator who helped me with a technical issue with my blog. As soon as I received this product medley, I thought it would be perfect! Plus, you know I couldn’t wait to start using it!

To create the background, I first added Adhesive Sheets to Basic White Cardstock. I added the die and ran it through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. I highly recommend adding the Adhesive Sheets to the cardstock before die cutting the image. This way you can be sure your butterflies will completely stick to your background. Next up, I die cut some butterflies from the Butterfly Bijou patterned paper and popped them up in the centre of my card. The final touch was a simple stamped and embossed sentiment from the Itty Bitty Greetings stamp set.

Here’s the card…

Oh I am really crushing on this card! I so hope the recipient loves it too.

The stamp set, die set and coordinating papers will be available next month (or you can pick them as part of your Starter Kit if you join this month).

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

Sale-A-BrationSimply SucculentsTechniqueThank you

Thanks (Simply Succulents / Paper Blooms DSP)

by Kylie
written by Kylie

Hi everyone, today I am sharing one of my favourite card types to make.  It is so easy to make but I think it looks so effective and it is a good way to show off all that gorgeous patterned paper we all have! All you need is an assortment of paper, craft punch and a stamp set with a nice sentiment.  I’ve chosen the Sale-A-Bration paper called Paper Blooms Designer Series Paper, the Tailored Tag punch and the Simply Succulents stamp set.

Simply use the Tailored Tag punch and punch out lots of different pieces of patterned paper.  Then position these punched out items on a second piece of cardstock.  You can lay out the design before you stick it down, or just wing it as I do. Once all the pieces are stuck down, trim off the edges and cut the panel to the size you want.  I decided to pop up this panel with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The sentiment was inked up with Versamark and then stamped on to a strip of Night of Navy cardstock.  I heat embossed it with white embossing powder.  The Banners Punch made it easy to add a banner end to this strip.  The final touch was a few scattered pearls.

Here’s the card…

 

Isn’t the Paper Blooms Design Series Paper gorgeous?  I love that the card design above lets you highlight snippets of this pretty paper. This is a Level 1 Sale-A-Bration option which you can choose for FREE with a qualifying order.  Read all about Sale-A-Bration here.

Designer Series PaperHeal Your HeartSale-A-BrationThank you

Thank You (Heal Your Heart / True Love DSP)

by Kylie
written by Kylie

Hi everyone, now that you’ve had a chance to check out the new January to June 2021 Mini Catalogue and the Sale-A-Bration catalogue, do you have any favourites?  One of the items which I loved from the outset is the True Love Designer Series Paper.  I love the Black and White geometric look which goes with just about anything but I also love that you can colour and fussy cut out some of the floral images on the reverse side.  That’s what I’ve done here!  With only one sheet of paper, I’ve used one side to create the background of my card and the other side, I’ve coloured and cut out the flower images to create the focal point of the card.

The sentiment comes from the Sale-A-Bration stamp set Heal Your Heart (this can be yours for free with a qualifying $90 order).  I simply embossed the image with white embossing powder and then fussy cut it out.  The final touch to the card was to add some of the new Matte Black Dots.

To step the card up a bit, you could pop up wth flowers with some Stampin’ Dimensionals.  You could also add a coat of Wink of Stella to add a little more interest.

Here’s the card…

 

Isn’t the paper beautiful?!  I’ve already ordered my second pack as I cannot stop using it!  Are you a fan of the black and white, with a pop of colour, look?

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

Thank You (Timeless Tropical)

by Kylie
written by Kylie

Hi everyone, with the weather warming up I felt inspired to pick up the Timeless Tropical stamp set from my shelf.  I really haven’t given it much love and that had to change.  We need to USE all these wonderful products we have purchased.

I really wanted to create a card where the hibiscus was the main focus as it is such a gorgeous image.  I just couldn’t quite work out how to make it look really good.  In the end, I decided to stamp with Early Espresso and suddenly it all clicked for me.  If you are having issues where you feel like things aren’t working for you, try switching up the colour you stamp with, or the medium you are colouring with, or something similar. You might find something as simple as this will make things just work!

Here’s the card…

 

The stamp set, and the coordinating die, have such fun and fabulous images.  It was so fun to colour!

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

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!

Thanks Ever So Much (Ornate Thanks)

by Kylie
written by Kylie

Hi everyone, the Tailored Tag punched backgrounds are making a return to the blog today.  I have been crafting up a storm creating cards with beautiful backgrounds made with the wonderful Tailored Tag punch.  I have made a LOT of cards!  It’s so easy and I love watching the cards come together.   I am sharing another two cards made with this same technique.  If you need to see the process, I do have a video which you can see here.  It is a very easy technique and I know once you start making cards like this you will make a LOT of them too.

The first card features papers and stamps from the Ornate Garden suite.  The second card features papers and stamps from the Flowers for Every Season suite.  (Products are available separately and are shown below).

Here’s the first card…

 

Here’s the second card…

 

Aren’t they beautiful?!  They really are an awesome card to make.  If you have a large stash of patterned paper, now is the time to dig into it and turn it into beautiful cards.

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

Rooted In NatureTechniqueThank you

Thanks (Rooted In Nature/Well Written) – Joseph’s Coat Technique

by Kylie
written by Kylie

Hi everyone,  one of my all-time favourite techniques is the Joseph’s Coat Technique.  I love experimenting with colours and that WOW factor at the end always makes me smile.  Today I am sharing a card using this technique and colours from a recent Stampers Anonymous challenge– Crushed Curry, Calypso Coral and Pretty Peacock.

The technique is so simple.  Sponge on assorted colours of ink.  Don’t worry if it looks like a hot mess.  I promise it gets better.  Make sure this layer dries completely before proceeding.   Once dry, use an embossing buddy, if you have one, to reduce the potential of embossing powder staying where you don’t want it.  Then ink up your stamps with Versamark.  I used stamps from the Rooted In Nature stamp set.  Stamp all over the inked up panel and then emboss with Clear Embossing Powder.  Heat the powder.

The next step can be a bit scary but it will not ruin your card!  Take a dark colour of ink.  For this card, I used Early Espresso.  Wipe the ink all over the card base.  Once you have covered all of the background, take a soft cloth and wipe the ink off the embossed images.  How good does that look?!

All that is left to do is to finish off your card.  I used the Well Written dies for my sentiment and the butterfly embellishments.

Here’s the card…

 

If you have never seen the Joseph’s Coat Technique before, I have a video here which will walk you through the process.  It’s for a different card but the principle is the same.  Substitute any colours and stamps as you like.   Just remember, the biggest tip is to make sure your ink is completely dry before adding the stamping and embossing.  If you get this right, you’ll be fine!

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

Designer Series PaperSaleThank youWhale Done

Thanks (Whale Done) / Final few hours of the Designer Series Paper Sale!

by Kylie
written by Kylie

Hi everyone,  today I am sharing one of my new favourite card designs.  It’s so simple but looks so effective!  If you are a newsletter subscriber, you’ve already had a sneak peek at this card.  I’ve created it using the Whale of a Time Designer Series Paper and the Whale Done Stamp set.  I love pretty much everything about the Whale of a Time suite.  The colours look amazing together, for starters, let alone the beautiful imagery!

Here’s the card…

If you are interested in making a card like this, it is so simple. You will need to cut three strips of patterned paper at 7.5 x 4cm each.  These are attached to a panel which is 8cm x 13cm in size.  Once you’ve done this step, attach the panel to your card base with either Seal or Stampin’ Dimensionals.  All that is left is to finish off the card.  You could leave it with just a sentiment or add a few extra details as I have done here.

To mix things up, you could also change the orientation so that the card is in portrait mode.  It looks so good too!  These cards are SO easy to make. You could easily make a heap in very little time.  I hope you have fun!

If you need to stock up on some Designer Series Paper so you can create fantastic cards like this, then you will love the fact that the Designer Series Paper sale is still going on! If you have been thinking about ordering paper but have thought you have plenty of time, time is now running out.  The sale ends at 11.50 pm tonight!

Here are the rest of the papers on sale…


So, now is most definitely the time to stock up on your Designer Series Paper (especially the designs you might use for your Christmas cards this year).  Just a reminder, the sale ends at 11.50 pm tonight!

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…

You might have come here from Sharon Wilson’s blog.  Next up,  please hop along to Elizabeth Yager’s blog. Here’s a list of all the participants:

International Blog HighlightsMany MatesSo Much LoveThank you

Kylie’s International Blog Highlight October 2020 Challenge

by Kylie
written by Kylie

Hi everyone, today I am participating in Kylie Bertucci’s Monthly International Blog Highlights challenge!  I’ve never participated before but thought it might be fun.  The idea behind the challenge is that Demonstrators from around the globe create a card based on a theme, upload it to a gallery and then people vote on the card they consider to be the “best” for the month.  The top ten winners then participate in a blog hop.  The theme for October is THANK YOU!  I make a lot of Thank You cards so the theme was right up my alley.

Here’s my card…

 

This card style is one of my favourites to create.  I love how the flowers look popping off the edge of the page like they are.  The white space makes the colours pop.  I’ve used the So Much Love stamp set and paired it with the Thanks! sentiment from the Many Mates stamp set.  This is another greeting stamp set which is great to have in your stash.  It has sentiments for lots of different occasions.

I hope you like my card.  I’d love it if you considered voting for my card.  Just click on the link here.  Having seen the entries by the other Demonstrators, I know you are going to be BLOWN AWAY!  Everyone is so talented!

Of course, while you are here, don’t forget all orders over $50 during the month of October 2020 go into a draw to win The Gang’s All Meer stamp set.

 

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