Here are my cards, I love the Tea Boutique Suite, it can be found on page 12 - 13, this was a must have when the catalogue came out, and I need to get it out more.

I hope that you have enjoyed today's project, and enjoyed a little inspiration from the card swap. If you haven't signed up for my emails you can do so on the side of this blog.

Stampin Up's "Celebrate Sunflowers" CASEing The Catalogue Card!

Hello and Welcome,

Today's card has been CASEd from the Annual Catalogue on page 13. It is using the "Celebrate Sunflowers" stamp set , and this card really sold this set to me.

You may see a little difference in these two cards, let me tell you a little about each one, and why they look so different.

My sample card uses the Water Colour pencils and edge of the petals have been coloured with Whisper White reinker. This ample looked nice but still not close enough to the sample in the catalogue. 

The catalogue sample recipe had that Shimmer Paint was used, but the effect left the card very shiny and I was not a fan of the end result.

This is the card created on my video tutorial using the Whisper White water colouring pencil for the edge of each petal. This card turned out amazingly, I am so happy with it, and it looks the closest to the card in the catalogue.

What do you think?

Until next time,

CASEing The Catty - Christmas!

Hello and Welcome,

Today's card has been CASEd from page 60 of the Stampin Up Annual Catalogue. I thought it would be great to do a few "Christmas In July" projects throughout the month.

This card uses the Perfectly Plaid stamp set and the Pine Tree Punch.

In the catalogue this is a set of 3 cards showing how to step up your cards, I love that our catalogues have so much inspiration for all levels of crafters.

With a few different layers and textures this card really is beautiful. Want to see how its created?

Stampin Up's "Harvest Hellos" Teachers Treat Box!

Hello and Welcome,

Today's video is a quick and economical Treat Holder that I have made for Teachers, but the Harvest Hellos stamp set has many different options and occasions for you to choose from.

Teaming up the Poppy Parade card with some of the "Flowers For Every Season" DSP, the striped pattern works so well. 

No Poppy Parade ribbon? Stampin Blends to the rescue! I love that I can create any colour ribbon with the Blends, I have used the Dark Poppy Parade over the Whisper White Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon.

How cute is the APPLE!!! To create this glittery, shiny apple, I have coloured with the Wink Of Stella pen, then over the stem,, leaves and sides of the apple, I have applied the Fine Tip Glue. This glue does take a little while to dry so be sure to put aside for overnight if possible.

2 For 1 Card using Stampin Up's

Hello and Welcome,

Today's card is a fun card using the Stamparatus, a tool that I don't use enough of, but is so easy to use.

Starting with two Shimmery White card fronts and one Basic Black I have arranged the images on the Stamparatus so all three cards are stamped in the exact position. One Shimmery White card is embossed with Black Embossing Powder and two with White Embossing Powder. 

Once embossed I have sponged one of the shimmery white cards with Blushing Bride, Rococo Rose and Calypso Coral. These three colours create a great ombre effect.

To create the two cards I have then die cut the sponged card using the Layering Circles Dies.

Layering with dimensionals to base, these cards are really beautiful.

Thanks so much for visiting today, I hope you have enjoyed this technique, and I have inspired you to go and create these for yourself.
