Welcome to July's Scrapbooking Global Blog Hop! This month our theme challenge is Monochromatic. I found some pictures of my sister-in-law's wedding flowers that needed to be scrapbooked and her colours were white and yellow daisies.
July Colour Combo Blog Hop

in Blog Hop, card, Colour Combo Blog Hop, die cutting, Embossing Folder, Stampin' Cut & Emboss
Welcome to July's Colour Combo Blog Hop! This month the colours are Highland Heather, Misty Moonlight and Sahara Sand. A fun combo!
I love the textures in the Tasteful Touches stamp set. There is lots of detail with the images and this stamp set has some great sentiments as well. The hello is part of a larger sentiment that I inked up using a Basic Black Stampin' Write Marker. I had a hard time trying to put Highland Heather onto this card but a little bit of it showing under the sentiment was perfect!

Seaside Touches Card
July 11, 2020
in Birthday, card, Designer Series Paper
A quick and easy card using the Seaside Notions stamp set and a piece of the pretty In Good Taste designer series paper. I stamped the seahorse using Blackberry Bliss ink and then fussy cut it. The Happy Birthday was stamped in Early Espresso and punched using the Tailored Tag punch. To get the roughed edge on the Early Espresso cardstock I used my scissors, the non-cutting edge, to rough up the edge.

Seahorse Gratitude - Kylie's International Blog Highlights
July 06, 2020
in card, Designer Series Paper, die cutting, Stampin' Cut & Emboss
Hello! This is my first time participating in the Monthly International Blog Highlights. I'm excited to share with you my card created using the theme of thank you.
Looking through my stamp sets and choosing the right one for this project was a hard choice! But I had the new Whale of A Time designer series paper (DSP) open on my desk and the Seaside Notions stamp set is a great alternative to use with it instead of the Whale Done stamp set. Paired along with the stamp set and DSP is the Stitched So Sweetly Dies. The colours are pulled from the DSP - Pretty Peacock and Granny Apple Green. To finish the card I added some of the Whale of A Time Sequins and a trimmed piece of Pretty Peacock Scalloped Linen Trim.
If you have a moment please vote for my card and check out all the other great projects! Click here to vote.

Global Stamping Friends - 2020-2022 In Colours
July 03, 2020
in Blog Hop, Global Stamping Friends Blog Hop, Stampin' Cut & Emboss
Welcome to the Global Stamping Friends July Blog Hop! This month we are using the new 2020-2022 In Colours for our projects. The new colours are: Cinnamon Cider, Misty Moonlight, Bumblebee, Magenta Madness and Just Jade.
Some quick and easy cards! There are 4 sayings in the Tasteful Touches stamp set so one is duplicated since there are 5 colours. The strips of designer series paper are from the Flowers for Every Season 6"x6" designer series paper and I went thru the pack to select coordinating designs to match each of the colours. These cards were created for my June Online Workshop that is going on until tomorrow. If you live in Canada please join the Monthly Workshop Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/266053647891781/.
Just Jade is my favourite colour of them all but Bumblebee is a close second! What about you? What colour do you like the most or the least?

June Mini Crop Scrapbook Layout
June 25, 2020
in Crop Kingston, Designer Series Paper, die cutting, Punches, scrapbooking, Stampin' Cut & Emboss
We held our first Mini Virtual Crop this past Saturday. We used the 2020-2022 In Color 6"x6" Designer Series Paper and the Tasteful Textures bundle to create our projects. This layout was one of my designs. The pictures are of my husband from 2000 when we went camping with my family. I still need to figure out what I'm going to write for journaling (this is the hardest part of scrapbooking for me).
Shoebox Swap Card
June 23, 2020
in card, Designer Series Paper
Last week my upline Lisa held a team virtual shoebox swap on Zoom. It was fun! I designed the above card for everyone to make. Usually we would cut cardstock for everyone to create the cards in person but with this virtual event we were able to pre-cut our own supplies. This meant that if you didn't have the same cardstock or designerseries paper the cards turned out differently. It was great to see everyone's completed cards and create new designs!
My second card was one I created during the event. I switched the card base to Pear Pizazz and chose a different piece of designer series paper.

Pretty Cards and Paper Blog Hop - In Good Taste
June 19, 2020
in Blog Hop, card, Designer Series Paper, die cutting, Pretty Cards & Paper, Stampin' Cut & Emboss
Welcome to the Pretty Cards and Paper Blog Hop. I've been asked to join these talented International Stampin' Up! Demonstrators in a monthly blog hop focusing on the beautiful designer series paper that is available in the our catalogue. This month we are showcasing the In Good Taste Designer Series Paper. Make sure to check out
all the blogs in the hop for ideas using this months featured
DSP, you'll find a list of them after my project.
The In Good Taste designer series paper has 24 double-sided designs that are wood, tile and textile based designs in 12"x12" format. Check out the picture below for all the different designs available in this pack. With such a variety it was hard to pick ones I wanted to use on my card! My eye was drawn to the white stucco design and the dark woven pattern design. To create my card I used coordinating product from the In Good Taste Suite - the Tasteful Touches stamp set, Tasteful Labels Dies and the In Good Taste Elements. Over the white stucco DSP piece the leaves were stamped with Gray Granite ink. The greeting is part of the sentiment "Just Saying Hello". The best way to select part of a stamp is to use a Stampin' Write Marker, I used Basic Black. This way you can colour in the section of the stamp you want. The final touches on the card were the Very Vanilla Lace Trim, the wood element leaves and a few Pearls.

More Than Chocolate
June 16, 2020
in Designer Series Paper, die cutting, Facebook Live, Punches, Stampin' Cut & Emboss, Videos
On my first few times through the new catalogue I completely overlooked this stamp set! Then just before placing my first order after the catalogue went live I slowly looked through the catalogue one last time to make sure I wasn't forgetting anything. That's when I discovered this stamp set. But I missed the inset picture showing the bundle! Good thing I kept looking through the catalogue all the way to the end! In the die cutting section I discovered the matching Love You More dies and you would've laughed at how delighted I was at this discovery! lol

This card was created using products from the In Good Taste Suite. And uses one of my favourite designer series papers from the new 2020-2021 Annual Catalogue, the In Good Taste designer series paper. This DSP has 24 double-sided designs that are wood, tile and textile based designs in 12"x12" format - perfect for scrapbooking! Is it on your wish list? I wonder if I'll need to buy more than one package?
