Stampin' Up! Simple Stamping Blog Hop

Tonight the Art with Heart team are sharing creative projects featuring Simple Stamping, which means our projects feature only paper, stamps and ink. It’s a great way to create a quick and easy card for new stampers or for when you need a card at short notice. These projects highlight how Stampin’ Up! ink, paper and card stock coordinates perfectly. 
If you would like a copy of the 2019 - 2020 annual catalogue, contact anyone on the blog hop and we will get in touch with you.

Have you ever seen the phrase "#simplestamping" ? Stampin' Up! have held monthly challenges on it for a while now and it is the focus of this months blog hop. I tried my best to do #simplestamping and do a beginners card or at least a beginners card I would teach at a workshop to new stampers. I aways have stampers stamp on a layer of whisper white cardstock so if there is any creative opps moments, there is always a second side to flip over to! 
I couldn't help myself and I added in some coloured cardstock as well on the card and some fussy cutting as beginner stampers can fussy cut! Everyone knows how to use scissors! I finished the card off with some dimensionals as old habits die hard!


Of course I couldn't stop at a beginners card (or like I said above, my version of a beginners card). I also made a stepped up version and used a die cut machine as well to complete my next card. I kept almost everything the same except added into a few more colours of cardstock and the die cut machine.

Stampin' Up! Pulled String Card featuring Broadway Birthday Stamp Set

Did you know when you take classic ink refills and bakers twine you can make some really fun cards with some old books! That is the technique I used to make this birthday card featuring broadway birthday stamp set. I think it is a really fun playful card that works for many different ages!


Calypso coral colour coach:

Here's another card I made using the calypso coral color coach.
I must like the calypso coral, crushed curry and bermuda bay colour combination as I used the same selection on this card despite the color coach having 3 different colouring combinations.
