Stampin' Up! Christmas Whimsy Shaker Card

Tonight I am joining some fellow demonstrators on a Christmas blog hop. We aim to bring you Christmas inspiration every Monday evening right through to Mid December!
You may have found me via Tina Gillespie's blog. If not that's ok! Hi and welcome! 

I begun with the Christmas Whimsy card kit for today's card and altered it slightly. I stamped the snow scene with the star stamp in night of navy ink and then cut the front panel of the card apart and placed it inside a clear envelope with some glitter. I cut a gold frame from gold foil to put over my shaker panel and adhered it all onto poppy parade card. The die cut elements where added onto the shaker panel after everything was adhered in place.
If you were to recreate this card, you will need gold foil, clear envelopes, glitter and poppy parade cardstock, oh and the Christmas Whimsy card kit. That is where the bulk of the materials came from. Even the night of navy ink, dimesionals and the clear block! I love kits that are stocked with some many supplies. I just can't help changing the card up and adding a Ros touch to them.

These are the supplies that come in the Christmas Whimsy card kit for $33. Enough supplies to make 8 cards, 4 each of 2 designs.


Here's my shaker card:


Even though I changed the card up, it still fits into the card supplied in the card kit. Isn't the gold lined envelope gorgeous? 


Inside card - Even the sentiment for the inside of the card comes from the card kit.

Stampin' Up! Gorgeous Leaves For You Card

Today, we have week 16 of the colour creations blog hop. We have returned to the traditional blog hop like a circle, for this new round so we hop you enjoy blog hoping round to everyone's blog. You may have found me via Kate Morgan's blog. If not that's ok! Hi and welcome! 

For this weeks blog hop, we are focusing on the colour, early espresso. 
I have chosen early esspresso, coastal cabana and garden green from the colour coach to work from this week. 
My card today was CASED from the July - December 2021 mini catalogue, page 70 ©2020 Stampin' Up!® or I have it shown just below.


I have stamped the leaves from gorgeous leaves stamp set in garden green and coastal cabana and die cut them out with intricate leaves dies. I also die cut out other leaf shapes in garden green, coastal cabana and cherry cobbler. Branches were cut in early espresso and a large maple shaped leaf in brushed metallic cardstock. Playful alphabet dies were die cut with foam adhesive sheets on the back so they would be popped up on the card. Remember when using fine die cuts, use adhesive sheets to make them easy to adhere in place. The brushed metallic adhesive backed dots were added as the finishing touch to the card front. 


Close up/side view


Inside card - The dotted stamp is stamped with the first impression stamped off on scrap paper and then the second on the basic white cardstock (so a lighter image appears). A stamped leaf and die cut finishes off the inside of the card.    


Up next we have Diane Furniss. I can't wait to see what she is sharing.

Stampin' Up! Delicate Dahlias Thanks Card

Today, we have week 15 of the colour creations blog hop. We have returned to the traditional blog hop like a circle, for this new round so we hop you enjoy blog hoping round to everyone's blog. You may have found me via Tina Gillespie's blog. If not that's ok! Hi and welcome! 

For this weeks blog hop, we are focusing on the colour, daffodil delight. 
I have chosen daffodil delight, blackberry bliss and cajun craze from the colour coach to work from this week. 

For my card today, I have created a thank you card using the free delicate dahlias stamp set that is available as part of sale-a-bration. There are 10 products to choose from - 4 stamp sets, 3 paper packs, 1 speciality paper and a 2 dies sets! Free products are available with purchases of $90 or more. Sale-a-bration runs until September 30th, 2021. 

I stamped the dahlia in blackberry bliss, cajun craze and daffodil delight, (twice in daffodil delight so I could fussy cut and layer it) and stamped the outline image in memento ink. The leaves were stamped in old olive and memento inks. The thanks sentiment is heat embossed in white embossing powder and is from the biggest wish stamp set. I used the stitched greenery die on the background of the basic black cardstock. The gems are leftovers from the Notes of Cheer kit.
