I’m a few days behind with the #30DayChristmasCardMakingChallenge. This past weekend I was up in Sydney enjoying On Stage which is a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator only event. This was an all day event on the Saturday where we got treated to lots of demonstrations using new products from the upcoming January – April Mini Catalogue…
In this class you will get a selection of products to make 6 cards including a fancy fold card with plenty of product leftover to create even more. The Christmas Banners Bundle is a must have in your collection. It has a large selection of mix and match sentiment which fit in the range of…
I love unusual colour schemes for Christmas and this was definitely something a little bit different for our #30DayChristmasCardMakingChallenge. These can be tricky but that’s the point of a challenge. I chose Polished Pink candy canes to start my card off. The candy canes were fussy cut and layered on die cut candy canes from…
Hi and welcome to my blog here in Melbourne on your travel Around the World with us today. We are a group of Stampin’ Up! demonstrators from around the world who share inspiration on the 2nd Wednesday of the month. I must say this theme had me in a bind with no inspiration until last…
When I saw today’s theme for #30DayChristmasCardMakingChallenge, I thought of a tree laden with beautifully wrapped gifts. Giving gifts is something I love about the Christmas season.

With a Blending Brush I added Fresh Freesia, Highland Heather, Balmy Blue and a touch of So Saffron for the setting sun. I wanted to add a silhouette of trees but felt black would be too…
I’m playing along with the Colour Inkspirations Challenge CI132. With the accompanying photo, it was hard not to go along with the beachy theme. Instead I went with what seems to be my next favourite, the bird from the Perched in a Tree stamp set. I heat embossed the image in Silver and then coloured…
With 11 shades of Green in the Stampin’ Up! colour range, creating ‘Something Green’ for the #30DayChristmasCardmakingChallenge was quite easy. I went for the obvious choice – leaves from the Leaves of Holly bundle. This is a two-step stamp set however I’ve been using the detail stamp on it’s own. I love how effective it…
We’ve been challenged by Martin Stone with a sketch challenge for the #30DayChristmasCardMakingChallenge. I must say, I did struggle with this one as I was a bit stumped with the 3 elements on it and tying it all together. I ended up choosing the tree rings from the Ringed with Nature bundle to form part…
