Stampers Showcase Blog Hop – A Holiday Preview

I’ve been having fun creating with the Wonder of the Season Memories & More Card Pack. I created a few cards the other day focusing more on the Cherry Cobbler in this pack. You can view those here. Today, I’ve gone for a more neutral colour scheme with the lovely shades of green and gray tones.

The background DSP could have worked with a number of colours but I really loved how it stood out on the Basic Gray cardstock. I embossed the smaller Memories & More card with the Old World Paper embossing folder which added some beautiful texture to this piece. The wording from the Christmas Carol, Twelve Days of Christmas, is such a lovely detail on this card.

The bold sentiment has been fussy cut from another card in this pack. I love all the detail that can be achieved by cutting these cards and using them in various ways. I’ve added a panel of Plush Poinsetta Specialty DSP which adds the soft touch of vellum with texture.

On this next card, again I chose texture with the beautiful Parisian Flourish Embossing folder. The leaves and bauble stickers have been mounted with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The laser cut gold leaves mimic the leaves from the sticker sheet which are included in the Wonder of the Season Memories & More Card Pack. A gold cord ribbon completes this arrangement.

You get several sentiments to choose from and the gold sentiment is a simple and pretty addition to this card.

I hope you have been inspired to create some projects using the Wonder of the Season Memories & More Cards. The products I have used on these cards are listed at the bottom of this post.

Make sure you hop all the way through for lots of Mini Catalogue inspiration. Next on our hop is the talented Lisa Mackey. Click on the Next button to see her project.

Kre8tors Blog Hop August 2020 – Anniversary

Hi and welcome to Stamping Flair and the monthly Kre8tors Blog Hop. I’m a little bit sad because it’s the last time we’ll be hopping together for the time being. Thank you to Melissa Tennison who has worked so hard putting this blog hop together each month. I’ve had so much fun being a part of it. 

Kre8tors Blog Hop August Color Challenge

However, we still have all the fun of this month. So make sure you check out all the blogs for lots of inspiration. Our theme is anniversaries. Usually I would create a floral, feminine card but this time I created more with my partner in mind. So my card took on a more masculine feel. 

I started by sponging Granny Apple Green and Misty Moonlight along the bottom of the Whisper White cardstock panel. Then I embossed it with the Tasteful Textile embossing folder. Taking my Versamark ink pad, I roughly ran it down the ends of the cardstock and poured the Gold Embossing Powder over it. I brushed off any excess to achieve a streaky look then heat embossed it. 

The sentiment is the die from the Love You More set and it actually says ‘Love you more than’. I just used the words ‘ Love you’ which I die cut from the Rainbow Glimmer Paper

I hope you have been inspired by my creation. Please leave me a comment as I would love to hear from you. Next on our hop is Annette Elias. Click on the Next button to see her lovely project.

Colour Combo Blog Hop – August 2020

Hi,

Welcome to another Colour Combo Blog Hop. I’m a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator in Melbourne, Australia. Today, we are mixing Rich Razzleberry, Mint Macaron and Soft Suede for our blog hop.  Quite an unusual colour palette with the Soft Suede in the mix but it sure gets the creative mind working. 

Colour Combo Blog Hop, August 2020

Mint Macaron as a colour always makes me think of macarons. The idea began to form in my head with macarons and berries and milkshakes – mint and pale pink. I had something close to macarons – and that was cookies. It was time to open my Nothing’s Better than Bundle which just arrived in my last delivery. Now this is a bundle that at first didn’t catch my eye in the Annual Catalogue. However, I saw so many cute projects made with it that I just had to get it. Have you experienced this before? 

 

I started by creating 2 panels of water colour washed cardstock in Mint Macaron and Rich Razzleberry. The softness that the wash creates was the look I wanted. Once dry, I used the Best Plaid die to cut out the Rich Razzleberry panel and cut that down. This is a very quick and easy background to create. 

The cookies are two-step stamped in Soft Suede.  For the base layer, I stamped off twice to achieve a very light shade. Then I stamped the choc-chips in full strength Soft Suede. 

Does this card resonate with you at the moment? In lock down, we sure are running to the pantry and refrigerator a whole lot more than we would normally do!

I hope you’ve enjoyed this fun card and perhaps I may have convinced you to add this to your Wish List if you don’t already own it.  Click on the Next button to go to Caroline Peck’s blog.
