Just Add Ink #87

This week Just Add Ink have a colour challenge for you, these are 2 of the lovely new "In-Colours" Pool Party & Calypso Coral, 2 of my absolute fav's.....Yummy aren't they!

This was such a joy to make, the stamp set l used is "Field Flowers" and l even pulled out the sewing machine, not something l do very often.
I coloured the Basic Pearls with a Co-Ordinating permanent marker and distressed the edges to soften the overall look.
 l really like how this turned out and am now considering using this design for my Regional swaps.

Couldn't resist playing with the inside too!

All products are Stampin-Up.

Jump over to Just Add Ink and be inspired by the lovely creations from the Design Team.

Kindness Matters...........

                                      Another simple & quick card to share....          

These little butterflies from the SU set "Kindness Matters" are so sweet and dainty & make a perfect accent without taking over your project.

Some simple stamping, scoring & colouring and it was done, perfect for making a card in a hurry, l used Stampin-Up markers and blender pen to colour the images, added a little Dazzling Diamonds to give it some sparkle.

All Products used are Stampin Up.

After the Rain............Another quick post.

This sweet little image was one l purchased recently at a Papercraft show and was perfect for a card l wanted to make for someone special.

I coloured the image using Copic Markers, the image and border punch are Non-SU, but all cardstock, DSP, ribbon, inks and crystal effects are Stampin-Up.


" Have a lovely Day" & thanks for stopping by!

A Catalogue Case.....

A quick post from me today, just to share a couple of lovely little projects cased from the current Stampin-Up Catalogue, there are always so many cool ideas to be inspired by....just not enough hours in my day!

                           Both of these projects were heaps of fun to make and fairly quick too!

How cute are those flowers! I used the Scallop Circle punch for those and folded them into 1/4, using mini glue dots to hold them in place, then l carefully folded each petal into position to form the flower shape.

All products are Stampin-Up.

Petite Envelopes.......

Now l have to say these are the cutest Die cuts ever......"Stampin-Ups" new Petite Envelope Die, l was very excited to get my hands on this after getting a "Sneak Peek" at Convention.

I also used the new Frames Embossing folders and teamed them up with a lovely little stamp set called "Kindness Matters".

The second one is another new In-Colour called Wisteria Wonder...very pretty! and if you look closely you can see the Co-Ordinating "Designer Printed Brads" available in all of the new In-Colours.

All products are Stampin Up.

Just Add Ink #86

It's Challenge time again at Just Add Ink and this awesome sketch was provided by the very talented Bronwyn Eastley

I really wanted to use the Precious Butterflies set found in the Hostess promotion section of the Stampin-Up Catalogue.
My colour combo is Cherry Cobbler-Basic Grey & Whisper White, l have also used the Striped Embossing folder on all layers to give it a little texture, added a little bling and it was done!
Over-all a fairly Clean & Simple look I think!

All products used are Stampin-Up.

Head over to Just Add Ink and be inspired, the rest of the DT have done a fabulous job with this weeks challenge.

A Christmas project.......

Well the time has come l think, Christmas is not so far away and with so many wonderful ideas to create, l thought it was about time to actually start doing them........ I'm hoping to do a regular weekly "Christmas Post"  That way l will make myself post more often and get a head start on all those Christmas items l need to make!

                                The gift tags were made using Stampin-Ups "Two Tags Die"

                                                                                

For the Giftboxes l used the Petal cone Die and a retired one, called the Petal card Die, both of these make a reasonable size gift box and being able to use the oval embossing folder on the fronts was a bonus, very happy with that discovery!
The other products l used were the Petals-a-plenty emb/folder, Cherry Cobbler seam binding, the decorative label punch, Tags till Christmas stamp set, 3/4" circle punch for the Berries & Holly.
My all time favourite Christmas DSP Holly Jolly (retired)...
