Pretty Cards And Paper - August

August 20, 2021 in , , , , , ,

Hello and welcome to the next stop in August's Pretty Cards and Paper blog hop. My project uses the Peaceful Prints designer series paper. 
Isn't the tree design so pretty? Usually I start a scrapbook page with photos but this time I started with the designer series paper. If you're unsure of where to start with creating a layout Pinterest is a great place to start. Another option is to cut some paper and place it down, more items around a bit, or maybe walk away from the layout for an hour or two.

Perfectly Plaid with Tidings of Christmas Designer Series Paper

July 17, 2021 in , , , , ,

Inside the Annual Catalogue you can find the Holidays Section starting on page 88. The Tidings of Christmas suite uses the traditional colours I like to use for Christmas: greens and red. There is a coordinating stamp set & die bundle that is designed to work with the Tidings of Christmas designer series paper. But you could use any Christmas or Holiday themed stamp set with it. I've used the Season's Blessing stamp set and now the Perfectly Plaid stamp set.

Bell Rings in Razzleberry

December 24, 2020 in , , ,

Merry Christmas Eve friend! One more Christmas card to share with you before the big day. This card features the Christmas Means More stamp set and the 'Tis The Season designer series paper. Using a colour not listed on the designer series paper is a great way to make your image or sentiment pop! On this card I've used Rich Razzleberry. And do you see those Iridescent Pearls? They are green or purple or blue depending on the light! A great edition to this card.

Plaid Tree

December 15, 2020 in , ,

Melon Mambo isn't a colour I would normally use for Christmas but it was one of the colours used in the Plaid Tidings designer series paper and it paired along with Misty Moonlight creates a gorgeous non-traditional Christmas colour combo. What colours do you like using on your cards?

Colour Combo Blog Hop - December

December 13, 2020 in , , , , ,

Welcome! December's Colour Combo is Gray Granite, Real Red and Cinnamon Cider. A great combo for Christmas an many other projects.
Can you smell the cinnamon when you use Cinnamon Cider cardstock or ink? It makes me think of apple cider simmering on the stove with cinnamon sticks. Yum! Maybe I should heat some up today. Do you have a warm drink you like to drink during the cooler months? It would be neat to hear about your favourite that I could try.

Christmas Means More in Gold

December 12, 2020 in , , , , ,

Have you noticed the Gold Cards & Envelopes in the Aug-Dec Mini Catalogue? I love the gold design on the cards. A great base for Christmas cards! Keep in mind that these Gold Cards & Envelopes are retiring and only available while supplies last. Don't your love the saying on this card? The Christmas Means More stamp set is a great set with seasonal sentiments. In the card above its stamped with Memento black ink with the ivy coloured in with Stampin' Blends.

Snowflakes in Wood

November 22, 2020 in , , , , , ,

The snow started to fall this afternoon! It's very pretty when I can sit in my craft room, watch it collect on the truck in the driveway and don't have to leave the house. Have you had your first snow storm of this season? Days like today was my inspiration when stamping the snowflakes onto the wood design paper from the In Good Taste designer series paper. The snowflakes are from the Snowflake Wishes stamp set, stamped using Versamark ink and heat set with Whisper White embossing powder.

Welcome to October's Pretty Cards & Paper Blog Hop and thank you for stopping by! This month we are using the Forever Fern designer series paper.

Some of the designs of the Forever Fern DSP work really well for Christmas like the piece on my card. I think it looks like a waterfall or tall grass. The In The Pines bundle is a good way to make some beautiful cards for Christmas or for other occasions.

Crop Kingston - 'Tis The Season Virtual Crop

November 19, 2020 in , , , , ,

On Saturday we held our November 'Tis The Season Virtual Crop in our private Facebook group. It was fun to create some additional projects for you and to watch what Lisa created!
This is my original card that the instructions were included in the PDF. I picked out strips of the 'Tis The Season designer series paper that were left over from our other cards. For my sample card I used strips featuring the colour green. The strips are 4" x 0.75".

Cozy Moose with Foil

November 12, 2020 in , , , , ,
Hello my name is Amanda and I LOVE the Moose stamp and punch in the Merry Moose bundle!❤️ Don't get me wrong, the little racoon is adorable as well BUT that moose! To create this card I've used some of my new favourite accessories as well. Can you spot the Iridescent Pearls? In the catalogue they looked very bluish but in real life they can have a greenish hue to them as well. And the Silver foil embossed using the new Evergreen Forest 3D embossing folder really pops behind those stamped trees and the moose.

A Curvy Merry Christmas

October 20, 2020 in , , , , , , ,

For this card I drew inspiration for one of Stampin' Up!'s Artisan Design Team - Nina Waldschmidt. I love her card with all the layers but I wanted to show a simpler card. I pulled some of the colours from the Classic Christmas designer series paper - Sahara Sand and Shaded Spruce and added Pool Party! I'm so not ready for winter but I love this colour combo as it makes me think of snowy days. The Curvy Celebrations bundle is available for demonstrators to order now! And will be available for customers to order from Nov 3 to Jan 4. The Quite Curvy stamp set and matching Curvy dies are an early release from the Jan-Jun 2021 Mini Catalogue while the Curvy Christmas stamp set and the Classic Christmas designer series paper are exclusive and limited time offerings until Jan 4.

I shared how to create this card during my Facebook live last week. The video is below if you missed watching it. Join me this Thursday at 7pm for my next live at https://www.facebook.com/FromWhereIStamp

Stocking Team Swap

October 17, 2020 in , , , , ,

I had fun creating this card for a recent team swap! This stamp set has a variety of stocking images and also includes some stamps to ink up the images as well. I've used the dots with Real Red ink on the cuff of the stocking. I fussy cut the stocking and glued it onto the Whisper White piece that is layered on a die-cut Mossy Meadow Stitched Rectangle.
The A Merry Hello stamp set is a host set that you can earn free either by placing a $200 before shipping and taxes order or host a qualifying party.

Pretty Cards and Paper Blog Hop - Heartwarming Hugs

October 16, 2020 in , , , ,
Hello and welcome! This month's Pretty Cards & Paper blog hop is featuring either the Heartwarming Hugs or the Snowflake Splendor designer series paper. I've used the Heartwarming Hugs DSP for my project today.
The Peace & Joy stamp set has bold images that work so well with the Heartwarming Hugs DSP. The hardest part was selecting which piece of paper to use from this pack! My card is a CASE (copy and share everything!) of a card in the 2020-2021 Annual Catalogue. You can find the original sample on page 104. The DSP was cut to 5-3/8" x 3", the Whisper White stamped piece was cut to 5-1/8" x 2-3/4" and the Real Red cardstock is 2-1/8" x 1/2". I love getting inspiration from the catalogues. If you ever get stuck wondering how a project is made in any of our catalogues please contact me and I can look it up for you!
Both packs of designer series paper we are featuring this month are included in the 15% off sale along with many of my favourites! View what's on sale here until Oct 31: https://www.stampinup.ca/categories/sales-specials/designer-series-paper-sale?dbwsdemoid=2157916

In The Pines Team Challenge

October 09, 2020 in , , , , ,
Last month's Team Creative Challenge was a colour challenge. I chose Just Jade, Cinnamon Cider and Early Espresso from the list of colours Lisa provided us. The Evergreen Forest embossing folder arrived in my order last week and I knew it would be perfect for this card! Thinking of the colours I rifled through my designer series paper and found the Flowers For Every Season designer series paper. I love this design I've used - the pine boughs and greenery piece. It was a perfect pairing for the embossing folder and the In The Pines bundle. The Cinnamon Cider Stitched Rectangle piece is cut from the same pack of DSP.
