Hi everyone, yesterday I shared a lovely card (and video) featuring the Blessings of Home bundle. Is it on your wish list yet? I’m totally loving it! I mentioned I wanted to share another version of the card and here it is. I’ve kept the basic idea the same but I’ve switched up the colours used and the orientation of the flowers.

Here’s the card…

Don’t you just love how bright and happy this card is when you use Daffodil Delight? Which card do you prefer? What colours would you use to create this card?

Hi everyone, a few days ago I shared a card using the Blessings from Home stamp set and the design was one of my “go-to’s” for these sorts of images. Today, I’m sharing another of my “go-to” designs. This design is so simple and I think it looks really pretty! I’ve created a video so you can see my exact process.

Here’s the card…

Hi everyone, a few days ago I shared a card using the Blessings from Home stamp set and received many comments and requests for a video to show how I created it. So that is what I’ve done. The only difference between this card and the previous one is that I’ve stamped it differently so there’s less of the Pool Party flowers. It wasn’t intentional – it just happened! That’s one of the joys of stamping. Every card is different! If you want to read how the card came together, click on this link and it will take you back to the original card. Otherwise, scroll down to watch a video of my process.

Here’s the card…

Birthdays Blessings of Home Stampin' Blends

Have a Perfect Birthday (Blessings of Home)

by Kylie January 6, 2022

written by Kylie

Hi everyone, now that you’ve had a chance to see the new catalogue, what do you think? So many awesome new goodies, right?! And how fabulous are all the cards and projects?! So good! So inspiring!

Today, I want to share a card featuring the beautiful Blessings from Home stamp set from the new January to June 2022 Mini Catalogue. This stamp set is gorgeous and I know I am going to get a lot of use out of it. It’s particularly fun if you love to colour – but even if you don’t, I think you’ll still enjoy creating with this set.

The card is based on a design I use ALL the time! It’s particularly good with floral images. If you ever get stuck for ideas with how to create using a floral image, try this design.

Start by stamping the main floral image all over a Basic White cardstock panel. You can either colour the floral image first or the background first. It doesn’t matter. I started by colouring in the background with a Dark Basic Black Stampin’ Blends marker. Next, I coloured the pink flowers with Flirty Flamingo and Polished Pink Stampin’ Blends. The leaves were coloured with the Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends. The small flowers were coloured with Pool Party and the Dark Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends. Finally, the yellow images were coloured with So Saffron and Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends. It was so fun! I found it so relaxing! Of course, I had to add a coat of Wink of Stella to the flowers too.

Next, I cut and folded a Basic Black card base then trimmed the coloured panel to size and adhered it down with Seal adhesive.

For the sentiment, I stamped it in Versamark and then Gold heat-embossed it. I then trimmed it into a strip and snipped the words apart. As I wanted a little more bling, I took a short length of Gold Trim and pulled it apart. I attached the individual threads to the card with a Glue Dot. Once they were in place, I popped up the sentiment with Stampin’ Dimensionals. The final touch was to add a few of the Gilded Gems.

Here’s the card…

Sometimes I share cards which I don’t 100% LOVE but I still hope something about the card will inspire or educate others, but I have to confess that I really love this card. I love the colours of the images and the simplicity of the design.

If you are inspired to create this card, or something similar, you can find all the things you need in my online store.

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

Blessings of Home OnStage

OnStage@Home Make & Takes – November 2021

by Kylie December 4, 2021

written by Kylie

Hi everyone, one of the things I love about OnStage@Home is the crafting portion. When we get together and craft in person, it’s the best. Despite not being able to come together for OnStage this year, we still got our crafting fix. We were given the option to purchase some of the new products coming next year and, of course, I couldn’t resist! You’ve already seen a couple of cards I’ve made with the Blessings of Home stamp set (you can see them here and here).

For our crafting session during OnStage@Home, we were given some instructions as to what to prepare and then we could craft along. It was fun! Some people chose to watch and create later but I was ready to go. Let’s take a look at the cards we made.

Here are the cards…

They are pretty cute! What I love about sessions like this is that it gives me the opportunity to craft in a different way – to step outside my own box. It also often reminds me of techniques I haven’t done in AGES – such as stamping on patterned paper. So fun! And I can tell you now that I’m ALREADY looking forward to the next event!

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

Blessings of Home Thank you

Thank You (Blessings of Home)

by Kylie November 20, 2021

written by Kylie

Hi everyone, recently we had our Demonstrator only event – OnStage@Home. It was so fun. A couple of Australian Demonstrators decided to host an after-party and I was so lucky to be able to attend. Both ladies shared some beautiful projects and reminded me of a couple of techniques I haven’t tried in ages. I’ll be sure to share these ideas in the coming weeks. Today I am sharing a card that features some colour combinations taught at this after-party. It’s so different from my go-to colours and I was surprised by how much I like it. Let’s get into it…

The card features the new Blessings of Home bundle which will be available in the January to June 2022 Mini Catalogue.

To create the card I stamped the main floral image twice in Tuxedo Black Memento ink and then coloured them with Stampin’ Blends. We used Light Cajun Craze, Light and Dark Pale Papaya for the smaller flowers. Light and Dark Fresh Freesia and Light and Dark Misty Moonlight were the colours we used for the larger flowers. The leaves were coloured with Light and Dark Shaded Spruce! So different but so nice!

After colouring the images, I used the large mat die from the Scalloped Contours die set to cut out one panel. I fussy cut out the top part of the other image. It was then I decided the bottom panel needed something extra. I stamped the main floral image on some Post-It notes, fussy cut them out and then covered the image I had already coloured. I then, very gently, flicked some of the Light Misty Moonlight Stampin’ Blend ink over the entire panel. This technique is fabulous but you need to be gentle so you don’t damage the nib too much.

I white heat-embossed the sentiment, also from the Blessings of Home stamp set. I did mask off part of the sentiment as I only wanted the ‘Thank You’ part of it. I then trimmed the sentiment to size and cut apart the words.

When it came to assembling the card I thought I needed to add a little more black to tie in with the sentiment so I trimmed a piece of Basic Black cardstock and matted my coloured panel to it. Next up I ran a card base of Fresh Freesia cardstock through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine with the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder. I love the subtle texture this gives.

Finally, I popped up the main panel, the extra coloured image, and the sentiment. I love the texture and dimension – so pretty! Of course, no card could be complete without a coat of Wink of Stella.

If you wanted to dress the card up a little more, you could add some Rhinestones or Ribbon.

Here’s the card…

This was such a fun card to create and it was great to step out of my comfort zone when it comes to colour combinations.

The Heart & Home Suite will be available from 4 January 2022.
