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.

Stampin' Up Angled Fold Delicate Baubles Christmas Card with Peaceful Prints DSP

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 Michele Taylor's blog. If not that's ok! Hi and welcome! 

Today, I have an angled fold Christmas card featuring delicate baubles dies and peaceful prints DSP. I have also used the be dazzling speciality paper. The peaceful prints DSP and be dazzling specialty paper are both available for free when you spend $90 or more on any Stampin' Up! products from August 3rd - September 30th. I really love them both and in case you haven't noticed have been using them A LOT!
For my angled card I created a base in sahara sand cardstock, inspired from the peaceful prints DSP and created a strip design from some offcuts of DSP. To complete the left hand side, I used a delicate baubles die and die cut in snowy white velvet sheets (from the July - December mini catalogue) and of course adding adhesive sheets to the velvet sheet before die cutting. A basic rhinestone jewel was added to the centre of the snowflake and a joy sentiment added to the bottom of the card front. 
On the right hand side of the card front I went with a sheet of DSP so it was a toned down a little (compared to the strip design).


Close up


Inside card - I used leftover pieces of DSP from the card front to decorate the inside and I also cut another snowflake bauble. I used paper snips to cut away the excess portions of the bauble I didn't want.

Stampin' Up! Summer Shadows Dies Any Occasion Card

Today, we have week 14 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 Diane Furniss' blog. If not that's ok! Hi and welcome! 

For this weeks blog hop, we are focusing on the colour, crushed curry.
I have chosen crushed curry, granny apple green and gorgeous grape from the colour coach to work from this week. 

For my card today, I basically CASED my card from last week's crumb cake blog hop except instead on a tone on tone design, I went with a bright, inlaid design and rotated the card 90 degrees. I used a basic black outline and filled it in with crushed curry, gorgeous grape and granny apple green inlaid pieces with adhesive sheets on the back of each die cut piece. I filled in some blank spaces with rhinestone basic jewels. I left the card with no sentiment so it can be used for any occasion although I may add a sentiment later.

Just a reminder what last weeks card looked like:


Here is this week's card:

Stampin' Up! Split Panel Delicate Baubles 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 Michele Talyor's blog. If not that's ok! Hi and welcome! 

For my card today, I have created a split panel card featuring delicate baubles dies. It also features the be dazzling specialty paper and peaceful prints designer series paper. Both available for free when you spend $90 or more on any Stampin' Up! products from August 3rd - September 30th.
The baubles are die cut from be dazzling speciality paper and to fill in the sections on my delicate baubles dies I used garden green, balmy blue and daffodil delight cardstock with adhesive sheets on the back of the cardstock.
To mimic the be dazzling specialty paper, I used silver foil to matt my green peaceful prints designer series paper. You can get three different silver foils in a speciality pack seen in page 23 of the July - December mini catalogue. 
The sentiment is typed and printed on my computer as I didn't have one in the right size (Copperplate font, size 12).

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 Judy May's blog. If not that's ok! Hi and welcome! 

For my card today, I created a diagonal double pocket card focusing on the sale-a-bration peaceful prints designer series paper. I also used the fabulous be dazzling speciality paper. Both of the products are available for free when you spend $90 or more on any Stampin' Up! products from August 3rd - September 30th.
I've also used the be jolly stamp set, layering circles dies and messages die and a few stampin' blends. I love this style of card because it allows to heaps of room to write a lovely personalised note and a spot to put my annual yearly newsletter. For my photos today, I reprinted my 2020 newsletter because this years newsletter isn't quite ready! LOL  
The diagonal pocket would also be a great spot to stash money, gift card, Tattslotto ticket or something like that!

Stampin' Up! Triple Point For You Card with Be Dazzling Speciality Paper and Camouflage Technique

Today, we have week 12 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, coastal cabana.
I have chosen coastal cabana, melon mambo and gorgeous grape from the colour coach to work from this week. 

For today's card, I have chosen to create a a triple point card. It is a top folding card and with the edges you cut off, you use them to decorate the front and create the triple points on the card front. I used the timeworn type 3D embossing folder to add some texture to the coastal cabana cardstock on the card front and embellished it with elegant faceted gems. I have used the playful alphabet dies with the be dazzling speciality paper and the speciality paper is free with any purchase of $90+ during sale-a-bration (August 3rd - September 30th). I created a camouflage background for inside the card with my colour coach colours. As I made a for you card, I left the inside of the card, blank with no sentiment.
