Thanks card created using the large Bee Thankful Stamp coloured using Stampin' Blends from Stampin' Up!

Thanks Stampin’ Up!

October 23, 2018 4 Comments

On Sunday my daughter and granddaughter walked into our house after flying from the UK to surprise me, with the help of my hubby.  So all my plans for this week have drastically changed.  Today's blog post will be fairly short and sweet with a thanks cards and details of a special one day Stampin' Up! sale. THE CARD I began with the card base, a piece of Thick Whisper White Card cut and scored using my Stampin' Trimmer.  Then I folded it along the scored line and sharpened the crease with ... VIEW POST

Embossing Folders Lift Me Up

October 20, 2018 3 Comments

For me, the beauty of embossing folders lies not only in the amazing designs that I can emboss.  Just recently I've come to realise that embossing folders can serve another purpose.  They can save a project from disaster, and when I was making today's project, one did just that. LIFT ME UP I began this project simply enough, with some Very Vanilla Card, a stamp set and a couple of ink pads. On one piece of card I stamped the two balloons from the Lift Me Up Stamp Set, the larger one ... VIEW POST

Cauldron Bubble WWYS90

October 15, 2018 4 Comments

This week's stamp set for the What Will You Stamp? challenge, WWYS190 Cauldron Bubble, really had me stumped.  As a member of the Design Team, I'm supposed to come up with ideas but Halloween just isn't my thing. Finally after days of nothing I had an epiphany.  In the kitchen.  While I was making apple and tomato chutney.  Why not use the cauldron for the tag on my chutney! CAULDRON BUBBLE I started with the cauldron image from the Cauldron Bubble Stamp Set, stamped onto Thick Whisper ... VIEW POST

Christmas card with sparkling poinsettia embellishment created using the Detailed Poinsettia Thinlits Dies and Stampin' Blends alcohol markers from Stampin' Up!

Sparkling Poinsettia

October 12, 2018 4 Comments

During my personal 24 cards in 24 hours challenge I tried a new (to me) technique using Stampin' Blends alcohol markers.  The idea is to give the illusion of coloured Glimmer Paper by colouring on an acetate overlay.  On my project I created a Christmas card featuring a sparkling poinsettia using the Detailed Poinsettia Thinlits Dies.  I was reasonably happy with the results considering I was working against the clock, but there are a few things I'd do differently next time. SPARKLING ... VIEW POST

Thankful for you card created using the Painted Harvest Stamp Set and hand coloured Designer Series Paper from the Natures Poem DSP pack from Stampin' Up!

Hand Coloured Designer Series Paper

October 9, 2018 2 Comments

When you've set yourself a personal challenge to design and make 24 different cards in 24 hours, you'll do anything.  For the fourth card in the series I fell back on a technique I tried some months ago.  This time I decided to create hand coloured Designer Series Paper in autumn colours. HAND COLOURED DESIGNER SERIES PAPER In the past, Stampin' Up! have sold paper that was designed to be coloured, but that's not what I used.  My Designer Series Paper (DSP) actually comes from the Nature's ...

Simple rainy day notecard featuring the umbrella girl image from the Beautiful You Stamp Set and coloured using Stampin' Blends markers from Stampin' Up!

Rainy Morning Brighter Days

September 27, 2018 2 Comments

It's been warmer here in Nova Scotia just lately, but rain and grey skies have replaced our usual vivid blue.  Once again the weather influenced my choice of project and stamp set, but it's anything but dreary.  So with the 'wishing you brighter days' sentiment on the inside of the card, here's your morning papercrafting inspiration. THE COLOURS I began with a piece of Whisper White Card and the umbrella girl image from the Beautiful You Stamp Set.  I stamped the image onto the card using ... VIEW POST

It's been such a long time since I've tried 'water It's been such a long time since I've tried 'watercolouring' a stamped image with ink. But July is World Watercolor Month and that was all the incentive I needed. #papercraftwithme #celebratesunflowers #sunflowersdies #papercrafting #cardmakersofinstagram #creativechallengesu #cardmaking #craftersofinstagram #crafting #sunflowers #handmadecards #thankyoucards #watercolorstampinup #stampinupcanada #stampinupcanadademonstrator #stampinup #madeinnovascotia
