Blog Hop Sketch Stampers Anonymous Tasteful Touches

Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #18: Sketch Challenge

written by Kylie

Hi everyone and welcome to the Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop day! Thanks so much for hopping with us again this month. The theme for May’s Blog Hop is a Sketch Challenge.

Here’s our Challenge…

Here’s my card…

I used some brand new items which I know you are all going to love as much I do. I’ve used part of a sentiment from the Tasteful Touches stamp set, new paper from the Flowers for Every Season Designer Series Paper, dies from the Tastelful Labels set as well as the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder, and finally, some of the new ribbons from the Flowers for Every Season Combo Pack. So pretty! Oh, and could you tell the base card is one of the new In Colours? It’s called Misty Moonlight and I think it is going to be a favourite of mine.

Let’s continue on the hop…

Birthdays Challenge StampingPals

StampingPals Challenge #3 | Birthdays

written by Kylie

Hi everyone! Today I am participating in the May StampingPals Challenge. This months challenge is the theme of Birthdays.

Here’s our Challenge…

Here’s my card…

I tried to do something a little different by using my dies to create balloons. I think the card design needs a little finessing but overall I am happy with the concept. This was another fun challenge. I hope you will play along with us. All the details are on the StampingPals blog.

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

Beautifully Braided Challenge Stampers Anonymous

Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #17: Colour Challenge

written by Kylie

Hi everyone and welcome to the Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop day! Thanks so much for hopping with us. The theme for today’s Blog Hop is a Colour Challenge. I love a good colour challenge but boy, sometimes I find them to be so difficult. This one was one of those extra challenging colour combos. We had to use Melon Mambo, Bermuda Bay, and Smoky Slate. They are gorgeous colours but I did have trouble making them work together.

Here’s our Challenge…

Here’s my card…

I used the really pretty Beautifully Braided stamp set. I realise the ginkgo leaves are supposed be green but I really love it in Melon Mambo. For me, I found the easiest way to use the three colours was to use a lot of white space.

Blog Hop Challenge Ornate Style Seriously the Best Sketch Stampers Anonymous Technique

Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop 16: Sketch Challenge

written by Kylie

Hi everyone and welcome to the Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop day! Thanks so much for hopping with us. The theme for today’s Blog Hop is a Sketch Challenge. I love a good sketch challenge. They challenge me to think outside of my normal square, and they are also great as a starting point when the mojo goes missing.

Here’s our Challenge…

Here’s my card…

This card was created using the Joseph‘s Coat Technique. I hadn’t done this technique for ages and thought it would be fun to revisit. You might also notice something new in this card. I’m using a stamp from the Ornate Style stamp set. This stamp set is part of a new suite debuting in the next Annual Catalogue. It’s really pretty! I also used stamps from the Seriously the Best stamp set for the sentiment. I *love* this stamp set. I cannot stop using it!

Challenge StampingPals

StampingPals Challenge #1: Colour Challenge

written by Kylie

Hi everyone! Today I am participating in the first-ever challenge through the StampingPals Challenge Blog. I developed the StampingPals Challenge blog with my friends Melissa Gifford and Jill Arenovski. I have really enjoyed participating in challenges through Stampers Anonymous and Kylie’s International Training Group. I wanted a place where other people could join in too and we could build a really fun, warm and inspirational community. I would LOVE it if you would spread the word AND play along with us!

The first StampingPals Challenge is a Colour Challenge. Our colours are Melon Mambo, Granny Apple Green and Mango Melody. We can also add Whisper White, Basic Black or Very Vanilla as our neutral.

Here’s our Challenge…

I love these colours but they are super bright. They also lend themselves to creating flowers. I grabbed my favourite Forever Blossoms and went to town colouring. I had started colouring the leaves first using the Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends when I realised Melon Mambo is not currently available in the Stampin’ Blends range. Oops! No way was I going to throw away the work I had already done. I simply grabbed the Melon Mambo Stampin’ Write marker, my Aqua Painter and started to paint the petals instead. It came up so well and really softened the appearance of the Melon Mambo. This is also how I dyed the Whisper White Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon.

Here’s my card…

I really love this card! It is so pretty in real life. I loved this challenge and I hope you will too. Please stop by the StampingPals blog and play along with us.

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

Blog Hop Breathtaking Bouquet Challenge Seriously the Best Stampers Anonymous

Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop 15: Colour Challenge

written by Kylie

Hi everyone and welcome to the Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop day! Thanks so much for hopping with us. The theme for today’s Blog Hop is a Colour Challenge. We had to use Purple Posy, Seaside Spray, and Rococo Rose on our project. We could also add Whisper White, Basic Black or Very Vanilla as our neutral.

Here’s our Challenge…

When the colours were first announced I was stumped. I had absolutely no idea which way to go. While the colours themselves are all gorgeous, it isn’t a colour combination I would have chosen for myself. I guess this challenge just goes to support why I take part in them – they *challenge* you to think about things in a different way, and step out of your norm.

Here’s my card…

I have to say I am so pleased with how this card turned out. I would never have thought to combine these colours in such a way and yet, look how pretty they look together! Now, I want to try and recreate this card but use black in place of the white stamping. How cool is that?! From stumped to inspired! My big tip for creating card like this is to be aware of which colours are most dominant and likely to take over from the others. For this card, the Rococo Rose is the dominant colour so I only put a little bit down compared with the other two colours.

Beautiful Friendship Blog Hop Challenge

Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop 12: Colour Challenge

written by Kylie

Hi everyone and welcome to the Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop day! Thanks so much for hopping with us. The theme for today’s Blog Hop is a Colour Challenge! I *loved* this challenge and I know a lot of the Stampers Anonymous ladies felt the same way. The colours are Lovely Lipstick, Granny Apple Green and Night of Navy. If you haven’t tried this colour combination, I really recommend that you do try it. I know you will love it.

Here’s our Colour Challenge…

I was so inspired by this Colour Challenge I actually made two cards and a video showing how I created them. I used the gorgeous Beautiful Friendship stamp set. I think this set is amazing. It really enables you to create beautiful cards with very little effort. The designs are wonderful.

Here’s my first card…

Here’s my second card…

Blog Hop Challenge Leave A Little Sparkle Sketch

Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop 11: Sketch Challenge

written by Kylie

Hi everyone and welcome to the Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop day! Thanks so much for hopping with us. The theme for today’s Blog Hop is a Sketch Challenge!

Here’s the Sketch…

I love sketch challenges. Sometimes they are super tricking but not this one, I love this design! I still had the Leave a Little Sparkle stamp set on my desk so that seemed like the logical choice to use for this challenge. I had fun water colouring the unicorn with my Stampin’ Write Markers (Brights). I love experimenting with different colours for the mane. It’s so pretty, isn’t it?!

The other aspect of this card which I really like is the vellum element. I used versamark to stamp the stars and swirls from the Leave a Little Sparkle stamp set. This was then heat embossed with White Stampin’ Emboss Powder. It looks so good.

Here’s my card…

Blog Hop Challenge First Frost Stampers Anonymous

Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop 7: Colour Challenge

written by Kylie

Hi everyone, happy Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop day! Thanks so much for hopping with us. The theme for today’s Blog Hop is a Colour Challenge! The Challenge was to use the three of the new 2019-202 In Colours – Pretty Peacock, Seaside Spray, and Rococo Rose.

Here’s the Challenge…

To be quite honest, I found this challenge to be quite difficult. One of the things I love about Stampin’ Up! is that everything works together so perfectly but I still struggled with this colour combination.

Here’s my Card…

Animal Outing Blog Hop Challenge Sketch

Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop 5: Sketch Challenge

written by Kylie

Hi everyone, happy Blog Hop day! Today, I am playing along with my fellow Stampers Anonymous Team Members in a Sketch Challenge Blog Hop.

Here’s the Sketch…

Here’s my Card…

I’ve used the super cute Animal Outing stamp set and coordinating Animal Friends die set (available as a bundle) for my card. I used the stamps to create my own patterned paper as I thought that would be fun. It was so simple to do too.

Next on the hop is: Marelle Taylor
