Bye Bye Beautiful Promenade

April 25, 2020 Leave a Comment

Yesterday I started going through my stamp sets to pull out those that are being retired. As usual there were some that I haven't used in ages and probably won't miss very much. There are others that I love and will stay in my collection forever. Then there's the third category, sets I haven't used in a while but can't understand why. Today's stamp set, Beautiful Promenade definitely falls into the third category. While it's got a number of floral images, it's the triple leaf image that ... VIEW POST

Beautiful Promenade for #WWYS202

January 14, 2019 2 Comments

After taking a week off, the What Will You Stamp? Challenge is back with a new challenge today. This week we've gone back to the Annual Catalogue for WWYS202 - Beautiful Promenade. I've had this set for quite a while and to be honest haven't used it nearly enough. So while I check out the other ideas over on the What Will You Stamp? blog, here's my contribution to the Design Team gallery. SHADES OF GREEN I began my project with a search for some pretty but calming paper for the ... VIEW POST

Vague ideas

This morning I read a Facebook post from a well-known local artist Joy Laking, where she revealed that even though she's been a painter for 45 years she still struggles sometimes with inspiration, as well as fear and anxiety as she works on a project.  This was an eye-opener to me.  I know Joy and she always comes across as so confident in what she does, but her words will be comforting to other artists and crafters and it's OK to struggle during the creative process.  It's a great insight and ...

Beautiful Promenade

July 7, 2018 10 Comments

Yesterday I was searching for something entirely different when I came across a box of mini chocolates that I'd purchased last year in Amsterdam.  The colours inspired me in my papercrafting this morning, and as I know I don't have any windmill images I pulled out the Beautiful Promenade Stamp Set instead. I began by looking for an appropriate blue ink.  Blueberry Bushel ink was a bit dark, but Bashful Blue was too light.  To solve my problem I stamped the sentiment and separate blue ... VIEW POST

I consider myself to be a life-long learner and love exploring You Tube and Pinterest for new ideas I can use in my papercrafting.  Something I've long admired am still working on is collage-style backgrounds and when I saw the Beautiful Promenade Stamp Set from Stampin' Up! I knew it would be perfect for this technique. It all began with a piece from the Tea Room 12" x 12" Specialty Designer Series Paper (DSP) Pack.  This DSP pack contains 24 sheets (4 each of 6 different double sided ... VIEW POST
