Hand-Penned In New Colours

May 12, 2022 Leave a Comment

One of the fun things about having a new set of In Colors added to the Stampin’ Up! range every year is it encourages me to revisit older (but still available) products. Today I decided it was time to break out the Hand-Penned Petals Stamp Set again. My original plan was simply to stamp one of the larger images and use the two-step stamping technique. However I simply couldn’t resist adding in a little heat embossing, before turning to the coordinating Penned Petals Dies. I’m very pleased with ... VIEW POST

Magnet Board Masculine Makeover

May 7, 2022 Leave a Comment

Today is going to be one of those days when I get very little done. I woke up with backache and it’s making it hard to concentrate on anything for more than a few minutes at a time. So I’ll take some painkillers and not put too much pressure on myself to get things done. Hopefully it will ease up as the day wears on, but in the meantime I wanted to show you something I’ve been working on... It’s a masculine makeover for the Celebrate Today Magnet Board Kit. If you saw my original post about ... VIEW POST

Doing The Hand-Penned Two-Step

March 5, 2022 Leave a Comment

I don’t get ill very often, but when I do it really seems to hit me hard.  Right now I’m fighting off a nasty cold and sore throat and it’s given me a really fuzzy brain.  Concentrating on anything for more than a few minutes at a time is a real challenge.  Even my crafting is taking much longer than normal. Today I’ve made a thank you card using the Hand-Penned Petals Stamp Set and coordinating Penned Flowers Dies, with another example of an edge die you may have ... VIEW POST

Penned Flowers For A Pretty Accent

September 27, 2021 Leave a Comment

Today's project was the result of another one of my "using up scraps" afternoons. It actually started with the pretty background piece that was left over after I decorated a small treat box. From there I didn't really have a plan other than to find some coordinating colours and pretty shapes. Once I'd decided to use the Penned Flowers Dies for the main accent it all came together very quickly. BACKGROUND LAYERS Taking my cue from the 1-1/2" x 3-1/4" scrap from the Blackberry Beauty ...

Twice Penned For A Different Look

July 22, 2021 2 Comments

Right now we're in the middle of a terrific thunderstorm and watching the lightning website it really is all around us. So today's blog post is going to be a quick one. Fortunately the project I have for you is super simple. It all hinges on the large floral image from the Hand-Penned Petals Stamp Set. SIMPLE GET WELL CARD First though I chose my colour scheme and for what I had in mind black and white was perfect. I began by using my Paper Trimmer to cut and score a piece of Basic ... VIEW POST

Hand-Penned Petals Called To Me Again

June 10, 2021 8 Comments

Since I've not had access to my craft room for a while I've been a bit limited in what I have available for my designs. It's a valid excuse, but I'll admit it's not the whole truth. You see I have a feeling that I'd probably keep going back to the Hand-Penned Petals Stamp Set regardless. I've simply fallen in love with the images and just keep getting more and more ideas. So I hope you'll allow me to indulge myself once again with this pretty thank you card. COLOURS FIRST While I ... VIEW POST
