Around the World on Wednesday Blog Hop



How fun - today I a participating in a brand new blog hop organised by Angie McKenzie called All Around the World on Wednesday! 

We are a group of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from all over the world here to share our love stamps, ink and paper. 

I hope you are inspired as much as I am with all the talent on offer. 

The theme is 'all things crafty' and I chose to share a fun fold card that I made.  

I would be lost without papercrafting, not only for the craft itself but also the friends I have made all over the world. In these crazy times we are experiencing right now it is so nice to know that I can reach out to these people and feel inspired, loved and certainly not alone.

So onto my card! I am using some of my favourite Stampin' Up! items - blends, rhinestones, wink of stella and polka dot ribbon. 

The design is called an Overlay Fun Fold Card. I originally saw it demonstrated on youtube by Lisa Curcio @ Lisa's Stamp Studio. It really easy to do - just hard to photograph! 

I coloured the large Magnolia flower with both light and dark flirty flamingo blends and the leaves with light and dark old olive. I then added a liberal dose of wink of stella everywhere. After diecutting the magnolia I trimmed off the stem and one of the leaves which I re-attached underneath when I added it to the card base.  













Next up is Danielle Kassing

Lookin' Sharp - Wittycisms


More playing with this fun witty-cisms stamp set and another case from Pinterest!! 

I love this cactus stamp - it looks like it is waving or giving a high 5 (or is it only me that sees that?!)

Some rustic elements with the corrugated embossing folder and the linen thread add to the desert feel.  By colouring the cacti in the light blends of both call me clover and lovely lipstick I was able to match the ink colour but not hide the stamped image.

Customer thank you cards - Witty-cisms






I love a silly little pun and I couldn't resist this stamp set called Witty-cisms. It was the perfect set to make some fun customer thank you cards last month. I have had a bit more time to just play and I am loving being able to go through all my saved ideas on Pinterest and finally create. 

I saw the first card originally posted by Sam Donald (aka Pootles) that she made for a blog hop and I had to make some too. After the first card I kept playing and mixed up some sentiments, designer series papers and punches/dies.   

I coloured the images with a variety of blends, using the designer series paper to guide me with the colours I needed.

StampingPals Challenges #SP2


Yippee! It's time for another challenge with my StampingPals. This month it is a sketch challenges. Now this one was nice and easy for me as I love this layout and it is one I tend to use alot - especially when I want to show off a stunning piece of designer series paper (DSP).


  

I have been using this Tropical Oasis paper quite a bit - as you might have noticed from my blog header - the monstera leaf is my logo so I love to think of this as 'my' paper :) 

Thr layout is simple. just a strip of DSP layered on a piece of soft suede cardstock then mounted onto the pretty peacock card base. 

The addition of the stitches on the sentiment layers adds a little something extra and the trinket is jut the right finishing touch. 

And this sentiment is for my StampingPals friends, thank you for all you bring to my life.
