Stampin' Up! Punch Art Easter Chocolate Slider Box

With Easter only days away, I made a chocolate slider box. I used the layering oval dies (which has sadly sold out from the last chance product sale). To make a bunny with a current in stock product, you could use the double oval punch for a punch art bunny. It would just be a smaller bunny.  


If you have something that you want on the last chance product sale, make sure you get your order in quick smart. Products are available till May 3rd, or while stocks last!

Stampin' Up! Gilded Leafing Techniques Class with Fine Art Floral Designer Series Paper

There seems to be a trend in late blogging of techniques classes this year! Here is Februrary's class (and tomorrow I will post this months class!)
In February we focused on using the Gilded Leaving Technique and used it with tear and tape and also with the heat and stick powder. As always, class participants made two cards and a sample piece. 


The first card features a few products on the Last Chance List, well written dies (which have now sold out), layering oval dies, terracotta tile cardstock and pretty peacock cardstock. 


The second card is a remake of my Old Olive colour creations card and uses the retiring stitched nested labels die.

Stampin' Up! Dandy Garden Thank You Card

Our forty first colour we are focusing on for the colour collections blog hop is "rich razzleberry" from the regals collection. I have chosen rich razzlebery, old olive and calypso coral from the colour coach to work with today for my creation and I have also added in the purple posy and bumblebee background card. 

I've taken one of the Dandy Garden Memories and More card and envelopes and cut it down to act as a base for my card and used a purple posy tag for the main focal image. Basic white would have also worked for the tag but I was CASEING the tag from the Mini Catagloue as shown below and they used purple posy. Not to mention, if I used a basic white tag, the dandy laser-cut flowers wouldn't show up on the white tag but you could also ink them to recolour them.
I obviously have made my tag wider than the catalogue and have changed it slightly. My dragonflies are calypso coral and I have popped them up with mini stampin' dimensionals and I used wink of stella on them as well for added shine.
Seeing as rich razzleberry was the colour for the week I tried to bring in more pops of the colour by adding faux resin dots, my card base and with the ribbon at the top of the tag. We don't have any rich razzleberry ribbon so colouring whisper white ribbon with your blends will give you ribbon in whatever colour you need. 

The tag shown below is from the Mini Catalogue January - June 2021, page 27 ©2021 Stampin' Up!® and it is what I CASED for my card.

Stampin' Up! Real Red Poppy Moments with Painted Poppies No Sentiment Card

Our fortieth colour we are focusing on for the colour collections blog hop is "real red" from the regals collection. I have chosen real red, coastal cabana and old olive from the colour coach to work with today for my creation and I have also added in granny apple green.

I used the painted poppies stamp set and poppy moments dies for my no sentiment card this week along with the painted texture 3D embossing folder. Lots of stamping the shadow stamp from painted poppies and lots of die cutting to get all the leaves and floral pieces to create my background. I love the texture provided from the painted texture 3D embossing folder. I added basic rhinestones jewels for added pizzaz and went with a no sentiment card as I felt the card worked well without a sentiment.

Stampin' Up! World of Good Designer Series Paper Sailing Home Birthday Card

This weeks Masculine Monday card features a card made from DSP (designer series paper) and I used the World of Good DSP. I went with a nautical theme for my card based on the compass DSP. 
I created a cloudy sky background with birds in the sky and a boat in the foreground all encased in a lifebuoy type shape to continue on with the nautical theme. 
I added a thin strip of balmy blue cardstock for the happy birthday sentiment from many messages stamp set to rest on so it didn't look like it was floating in thin air.

Stampin' Up! Stitched Triangles Birthday Card with Hand Drawn DSP

Our thirty eighth colour we are focusing on for the colour collections blog hop is "pumpkin pie" from the regals collection. I have chosen pumpkin pie, basic gray and bermuda bay from the colour coach to work with today for my creation. 

My card today is basically a CASE from Jen Brum and I've hand drawn the striped paper using the basic gray stampin' write marker, I inlaid the pumpkin pie stitched triangle in the top right hand corner (all the rest are sitting on top of the basic white cardstock) and the basic gray and bermuda bay triangles are popped up with stampin' dimensionals. I off set two happy birthday sentiments from birthday chick dies for a shadow and added a few pumpkin pie faux resin dots.


Inside card - I have added more of the hand drawn striped paper and used a sentiment from the you are amazing stamp set.
