I have let the Designer Series Paper do the hard work for this theme in our #30DayChristmasCardMakingChallenge. The Lights Aglow Specialty Paper already had the shine so I just added a few extras to create this card with Sparkle and Shine. The Distressed Gold Specialty Paper is a very cost effective way to add some…
A bit of a change from all my Christmas projects to play along with the Colour Inkspirations #CI133 challenge. As I saw this photo inspiration, part of me wanted to use my favourite bird from the Perched in a Tree stamp set but I resisted! Instead I’ve opted for a teacup stamped in Coastal Cabana…
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…

I’ve chosen a more modern colour palette for Day 21 of my Sketchtember Challenge pairing 2 of our cutest stamp sets – Penguin Place and Christmas Scottie. This is one of my favourite sketches with the offset rectangles being so forgiving – no need to worry about straight pieces or gluing askew and it works…
For Day 19 of my Sketchtember Challenge I’ve created a simple and elegant Christmas card using Cherry Cobbler and Gold with some neutrals added in. I added a Kraft cardstock matte onto the card base and then layered the specialty DSP and foil. Then I added some gold embossing powder to the Textural Elements to…
