Stampin' Up! Smackin' Acetate ATC's

October's theme for our monthly ATC swap was smackin' acetate. I used the peaceful boughs stamp set and beautiful boughs dies and was inspired by the image on page 15 of the Holiday catalogue. 


Peaceful boughs stamp set and beautiful boughs dies are in the carry over list but the bundle pricing won't be available from January 2nd. If you want to grab this bundle at a 10% discount grab if before January 2nd!

Try it Thursday #22 - Shaving Cream Galaxy Technique mixed with Faux Fabric ATCs

A fellow Aussie Stampin' Up! demonstrator (and her husband), came up with this shaving cream galaxy technique by accident. I am so glad they did as it looks amazing. When I gave it a go, prior to making my many imprints, I was trying to quickly pass the time so I could finish playing with the technique. Of course, I had all these wonderful samples as I wasn't sure what to do with them at first. Little by little, I have been using them on cards and ATC's.
Posts featuring previous uses can be found, here, here and here.

I started writing this post a long time ago and made my initial batch of samples back when dapper denim was an in colour (2016 - 2018) and have since made a new batch of samples featuring balmy blue and blueberry bushel. I used them on the background of my faux fabric ATC's. I've used the subtle 3D embossing folder for the faux fabric look (so it is a little hard to see) but it gives a fabulous texture.

Stampin' Up Brightly Gleaming Suite Christmas Card

The Brightly Gleaming Suite has to be my favourite suite in the whole holiday catalogue but sadly I haven't paid it nearly enough attending this catalogue but thankfully many of the products in the suite are carrying over. Some after the holiday catalogue period (on January 2nd) and even some into the 2020 Holiday Catalogue! That means that the classic weave ribbon and the brightly gleaming foil elements are only available while stocks last (and I had better use them on some more cards)!

I've used the designer series paper and Christmas gleaming stamp on my card today. As there is no coordinating dies I fussy cut the holly leaves after colouring them in with ink pads and aqua painters.

Stampin' Up! Christmastime is Here Birthday Card

Did you know that the Christmastime is Here product suite is still available? You can purchase it while stocks last?

Here's a beautiful birthday card I made featuring the designer series paper, gold ribbon, enamel dots and rose dies (but you can easily fussy cut the designer series paper). By not using the rose dies this is a cost effective card to make as you can make 30 rose cards from this designer series paper!

I choose to not use the suite as intended for a Christmas card, as I think it has gorgeous roses and they should be seen more than just at Christmas. It make a very pretty birthday card, don't you think?
