Inspired by Colour Palette #49 I’ve created today’s card which uses the Magnolia Mood bundle from our Oneline Exclusives range. If you follow me on Facebook, you will know that I share a new colour palette each Monday for inspiration. You can share what you create using these palettes on my page under the image.
The Magnolia Mood bundle comes with a stamp set and dies which cut out the stamped images as well as individual magnolia dies. I’ve used these individual images as the focal point on my card.
For the Starry Sky element, I blended some Starry Sky ink on a die cut label from the All That dies. These dies are retiring and can be purchased for just $24.50 in our Last Chance sale. Original price was $49. I just love all the unique little dies that come in this set.
Colouring the image with Watercolour Pencils I was able to achieve some beautiful colour variation on the flowers and leaves.
I’m following the sketch at Just Add Ink Challenges #697with the smaller flower making up the little hexagon on the right.
I heat embossed my sentiment in Black to make it stand out against those beautiful colours.

For Colour Palette #22 I have created a Christmas card with the So Very Merry stamp set. This stamp set, which earlier sold out very quickly, is back in stock and I’m so glad as I really love the unusual stained glass look of it.
The small bird was watercoloured to resemble a robin using Ink Refills and a Water Painter. This was then fussy cut. Although a small element, I created a focal image from it by layering it on 2 die cut circles.
On the larger circle I blended Cajun Craze ink over the Foursquare dies. This was layered onto White cardstock embossed with the Timber Embossing Folder.
The Real Red Festive Pearls were coloured with the Dark Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Blend to coordinate with my bird.
I’ve followed the sketch at Freshly Made Sketches #FMS601 and chosen Timber and Twine as the 2 elements from the Just Add Ink Just Chosse Two challenge.
I hope you have been inspired by this card and consider adding the So Very Merry stamp set to your next order. When you place an order of $90 with me during September you will receive 2 tutorial bundles with a total of 70 tutorials. That’s lots of inspiration and ideas for you to try.

Happy hump day friends, It’s a good feeling when you get here right? Seeing that Christmas is not too far away and it’s always nice to get a head start on those Christmas cards, I’ve got a card using some of the products we have in the current Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalogue and Online Exclusives range.
I’m following the sketch at Just Add Ink Challenge JAI667, the 2 circles were formed using some of our specialty paper.
This was the first time I had used the base leaf die (not sure why) from the Christmas Pinecones and I really liked the look of layering the two dies together to create a fuller effect.
For the background I used several strips of Parakeet Party Cardstock. This is a great way to use up your scrap cardstock and they don’t even need to be the same width as I’ve done here. Having them at different widths can have visual appeal too.

Hello friends, Hope your week is going well and even better now that we are halfway through the week. For Colour Palette #19 I’ve got a pretty floral card for you using the Irrisistible Blooms Bundle.
I’ve used the sketch at Just Add Ink Challenges #662 as the base for my card. For the centre panel I’ve used the Bright & Beautiful Designer Sereies Paper and on top of this I added some flowers and leaves. Two strips of Basic White Cardstock embossed with the Cane Weave Embossing Folder were added for the side panels.
The flowers were stamped in Blackberry Bliss ink and then coloured in with Blackberry Bliss and Fresh Freesia Stampin’ Blends. I stamped the leaves in Old Olive ink and coloured them in with Old Olive Stampin’ Blends and an Old Olive Watercolour Pencil.
I added a border along the bottom of the sentiment, which was fussy cut from Delightfully Eclectic Designer Series Paper. The black contrasts and stands out against the purple tones of the flowers.

Most avid crafters have endless amounts of paper and cardstock scrap and I’m sure you have a collection as well. This card has been designed around scraps and is great for us hoarders who can’t throw away any of those little bits of beautiful Designer Series Paper.
My card has been inspired by two challenges. I’ve picked scraps and strips from the Just Add Ink JAI658- Just Choose Two challenge. The strips were perfect for the sketch at the Paper Players PP646 challenge.
I took a piece of Basic White Cardstock slightly larger than the size of the banner. Then I adhered several strips of the Countryside Inn Designer Series Paper strips across it and die cut it with the largest banner from the Nested Essentials dies. I really love the patchwork effect this gives.
For some extra strips and in-keeping with the sketch I took some scrap Basic White Cardstock cut to 1.5 cm. I blended these with Boho Blue ink and stamped over them with the large watercolour look image from the Artistically Inked stamp set. This gave it a lovely textured look.
The Stampin’ Up! June Creative Challenge is to use Natural Tones Stampin’ Blends. I used the Blends to colour in the Punched out hearts and this provided a nice contrast against the blues.
I hope this inspires you to get creative with your scraps and find some fun ways to bring new life to them.
You can get this Countryside Inn Designer Series Paper on sale until 30th June. This is my favourite in the Annual Catalogue. The blues just work so well together.
