Thanks a Bunch (Celebrate Sunflowers) CASE the Catalogue

by Kylie
written by Kylie

Hi everyone, one of the best places to go for inspiration is the Stampin’ Up! Catalogue.  It is filled with so many fabulous ideas and every now and again, I have to CASE (Copy And Share Everything) one of the designs.  I’ve been crafting with the Celebrate Sunflowers set a bit lately and the catalogue showed a really pretty card which was simply coloured with pencils.  I loved the look and it really didn’t take very long to replicate it.

Simply stamp the large sunflowers from the Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set with Sahara Sand ink on a panel of Crumb Cake cardstock.  Then colour the image with the White and Daffodil Delight Watercolour Pencils.  You could also add a little bit of Early Espresso to the centre of the sunflowers.

Here’s the card…

 

I rarely remember to use my pencils and yet they are so fun to use.  I’m going to make sure I use them more often.  I hope you’ll pick up a colouring medium that you haven’t used for a while and give it another go.

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

Happy Stamping, Kylie

StampingPals Challenge #7 | Colour Challenge

by Kylie
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!

Happy Birthday (Tailored Tag Punch / From All of Us / Peaceful Moments) – VIDEO

by Kylie
written by Kylie

Hi everyone, this week on the Demonstrator Planning Page (which is a Demonstrator only Facebook page), the Home Office shared a really cool idea and I HAD to try it and share it with you all.  It’s so good and you’ll also get more use out of your Tailored Tag punch (which is pretty awesome just as it is).  Scroll down for the dimensions and a how-to video.

What will you need?
Here are the measurements…

 

 

 

 

 

 

This is how you create the hexagons…

Here’s my first card…

 

Here’s my second card…

Here’s the video…

 

Isn’t this an awesome technique?  You can actually create three cards from each strip (but I messed up one of mine.  Oops!)  You could use any pretty patterned paper to create this technique.  You could also use the hexagons to cover the entire background of the card.  Another cool idea would be to create a flower with the hexagons.  You could also do what I did and add texture to the background card by using different embossing folders.

I cannot wait to see what you all come up with using this fun technique!

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

Best YearCASE the CatalogueThank you

Thank You (Best Year Bundle / CASE the Catalogue)

by Kylie
written by Kylie

Hi everyone,  today I’m sharing two cards which I CASEd (Copy And Share Everything) from the new 2020-2021 Annual Catalogue.  As soon as I saw this card, the Best Year Bundle jumped on to my “must-have” list. I had to recreate it fairly faithfully too as it was such a gorgeous design.  If you have the catalogue, you can see the original card in question on page 133.

I wasn’t 100% sure of all the items they used to create the card, and I did switch out the sentiment (as I needed some Thank You cards) but it is otherwise a fairly faithful recreation.

My biggest tip for creating this card is to put Adhesive Sheets on the back of the paper which is die-cut with the Best Plaid Builder Dies.  It is SO much easier to get all the ends to stick perfectly.  If you don’t want to add it to the bottom part, at least do it for the part which goes on the top- you won’t regret it!

I used paper from the Peony Garden Designer Series Paper to create the background.  The flowers were fussy cut from paper in the Flowers for Every Season 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper Pack.  It really didn’t take too long to cut the flowers on.  Just crank up some music, or put a show on TV and you’ll get through it in no time.

Here’s the first card…

For the first card, I thought the Concept Artist may have used Gray Granite for the sentiment (which is from the Best Year stamp set) so that is what I used.  For the second card, I’ve used Basic Gray.  Which do you prefer? I prefer the darker Basic Gray ink.

Here’s the second card…

 

They are such pretty cards! I really enjoyed making the cards too.  They look even better in real life.

The Best Year Bundle is awesome, isn’t it?!  It is also something you might choose to get for FREE (yes, that’s right – FREE) if you decided to sign up with Stampin’ Up! before 30 June 2020.  There’s no pressure to run a business but if you want to get your products at a discounted price – now’s the time to sign up.  All new Demonstrators get their choice of a Stamp and Die Bundle or a Stamp and Punch Bundle – for FREE!  How fantastic is that?!

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

Thank youWinds of Change

Thank You (Winds of Change)

by Kylie
written by Kylie

Hi everyone!  Sorry I’ve been missing for a few days.  It’s been hard to find the time to get into the craft room.  I was recently gifted, for my birthday, the Winds of Change stamp set and I couldn’t wait to use it.  I needed to make a Thank You card for the sweet person who gave me the stamp set and since it had a Thank You sentiment in it, it seemed like the logical choice.

The card is a very simple design as I really wanted the gorgeous windmill scene to take centre stage.  I stamped the image and then coloured it with my Stampin’ Blends.

Here’s the Card…

It’s hard to see in the photograph but I finished off the card by adding some Wink of Stella to the tulips to give them a very pretty shimmery effect.  They look so gorgeous in real life.

The Winds of Change stamp set is beautiful and had some lovely sentiments.  I’m so thankful to my friend for giving it to me.  I know it is going to get a lot of use….after all, I’m going to have to colour those tulips in lots of different colour combinations.

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

Kylie’s Demonstrator Training Blog Hop – April 2020 (Thank You / Rooted In Nature)

by Kylie
written by Kylie

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 today.
I’m actually sharing two cards today.  They are both of the same design but I am sharing two different colour combinations.  I think this would also be fun using rainbow colours – in both bright and subtle shades.  I’ve used the Thank You die and part of the sentiment from the Rooted In Nature stamp set.
Here’s the first card…

 

 

Here’s the second card…

 

Here’s a list of all the participants:

 

Thanks for hopping with us.  It was so fun to take part and I know you are going to love all of the gorgeous creations by the rest of the Demo’s participating!

Ornate StyleSeriously the BestThank you

Thanks (Ornate Style / Seriously the Best)

by Kylie
written by Kylie

Hi everyone, one of the perks of being a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator is that we are given the opportunity to purchase items earlier than the general public. When Stampin’ Up! announced we were able to purchase one of the new suites, the Ornate Garden Suite, from the 2020-2021 Annual Catalogue this month, I couldn’t resist!  It is beautiful.  The first thing I had to play with was the Ornate Style stamp set.  You know I cannot resist a pretty image to colour!

After colouring the image with my Stampin’ Blends, I trimmed it out and then thought…hmm, what will I do next?!  I already had stamped and fussy cut the “Thanks” sentiment from the Seriously the Best stamp set and thought it looked good when layered over the floral image.  I decided then that was as busy as I wanted the card to be.  I used the new Ornate Foral 3D Embossing Folder to create a pretty textured background and layered the flowers and sentiment on top.  A little bling in the form of some Rhinestones finished off the card.

Here’s the Card…

Isn’t it a really pretty image?!  Demonstrators, including new Demonstrators, are able to buy this suite now.  Otherwise, it will be available from 1 April 2020.  You are going to love it!

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

Butterfly GalaTechniqueThank you

Thank you so very much (Butterfly Gala) – Baby Wipes Technique

by Kylie
written by Kylie

Hi everyone, today I am sharing a really pretty card which features the Butterfly Gala stamp set.  What makes this card so fabulous is that I used the Baby Wipes technique to create it.  Have you ever tried this technique?  It is so simple and the end result is different, and gorgeous every time!   If you are not familiar with this technique, I’m also sharing a video which shows you exactly how to do it.  The only thing you need to be aware of is that the inks will run and blend together so watch where you place your ink and what colours go near each other.  Okay, let’s get into it.

Here’s the Card…

 

Here’s the Video…

I hope you’ll give this technique a try.  It is SO easy and it looks SO good!

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

Forever BlossomsSeriously the BestThank you

Thanks (Forever Blossoms / Seriously the Best)

by Kylie
written by Kylie

Hi everyone, today I am sharing a couple of cards which are similar but different.  I’ve used the Forever Blossoms combined with the Seriously the Best stamp set.  I was looking to create a card where the sentiment was really front and centre.  The gorgeous stamps from Seriously the Best are perfect for this look.   Don’t you just love that beautiful font?  It’s fabulous!  Of course, you cannot go wrong when you add some pretty flowers around the edges.  The flowers from Forever Blossoms are so fun to colour too.

Here’s the first Card…

Here’s the second Card…

Which is your favourite? I cannot decide!  Although I think I am tending towards the first card.  You could quickly and easily make up a pile of these for your stash and have a variety of sentiments stamped.  It’s a simple design but looks so pretty!

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)

by Kylie
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!
