MEMORY KEEPING IS MY MONDAY MISSION

This week I am featuring the Beach Boardwalk Suite Collection.

For this week’s scrapbooking layout I wanted to use the gorgeous water-inspired Pool Party Designer Series Paper. This is the perfect background for photos from our recent week long coastal road trip.

Rob and I spent a week driving along the Northern New South Wales coast, as far down as Nambucca Heads.

I used my Canon Selphy to print out my photos before trimming them down to 4″x 4″ and mounting them on 4 1/2″x 4 1/2″ Lemon Lolly mattes.

The photos were placed on the background DSP.

To create the title I used the ticket die from the Boardwalk Fun Bundle and letters from the Alphabet a La Mode Dies. Adhesive Sheets are perfect to ensure the letters adhere to each of the tickets.

The note pad stamp and coordinating die, from the Just a Note Bundle, are ideal for journaling. I used a Journaling Pen to record memories of our trip.

I overlapped and angled the tickets to add interest to each page.

Tomorrow I have a card to share with you.Until then, happy stamping and scrapbooking.

If you live in Australia, you can order any of the products I used to make this card by going to my online store. As you read through this post, you will see the products I used for this project. The new items are available from January 6th, 2026.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY Colour INKspiration – 200 CHALLENGES!

Welcome to a very special challenge. We are celebrating our 200th challenge at Colour INKspiration! There are still many original Crew who started with our first challenge on January 11th, 2017. This amazing group was organised by the super creative Bronwyn Eastley. Past and present Crew members are amongst some of the nicest and most talented people you could ever meet. And we even have some of our past Crew joining in with us to celebrate so watch out for their projects in the Album and in posts. We hope that you enjoy following and joining in with us as much as we love designing for you. Here’s to another 200 challenges!

We also welcome Catherine Proctor as our Guest Designer.

This challenge is a little different. We are asking you to showcase your favourite Stampin’ Up! colour. It can be current or retired. It will be tricky to choose just one but we know you can do it!

As well you chosen colour for #CI200, you may also add Basic White, Very Vanilla, Crumb Cake, Basic Beige, Basic Black and metallics to your project. We also allow ‘Ivory’, ‘Bronze’ and ‘Natural Tones’ in the Stampin’ Blends.

To get your creative ideas flowing, make sure you check out the Crew’s Project in the CI#200 Album.

Challenge guidelines:

· Create a NEW project made specifically for this challenge.

· Use only your 1 favourite Stampin’ Up! colour along with allowable neutrals.

· Upload only ONE picture per entry straight to the discussion wall and NOT in an album.

CI#200 will run for almost TWO weeks and will end at 7 pm (AEDT) on Monday December 8th.

We hope you can participate this round and look forward to seeing a variety of projects showcasing your favourite colours. Happy stamping.

It was so hard choosing a ‘favourite’ colour but I decided on Poppy Parade!

For this card I used some of the amazing products from the upcoming January – April 2026 Mini Catalogue – Made with Love Suite Collection and the Love Story Stamp Set.

I used the Designer Series Paper, Dies and Embossing Folder.

I chose the “I Adore You” greeting for this card.

After preparing the Poppy Parade card base, I created a layered element – a panel of the striped DSP, Basic White card and an embossed, sanded and frayed Poppy Parade Two-tone panel.

Before adding the embossed layer, I wrapped a length of Basic White Baker’s Twine around it and tied a bow.

This layered element was then adhered to the card front at an angle.

Using one of the heart shapes from the Endless Love Dies, I cut 6 of them from Poppy Parade and Basic White. After peeling back the Adhesive Sheet backing, I overlaid each of these hearts to create the feature on the card front.

After stamping the greeting, I used the Three Banner Punch to create the banner .

Finally, I added some of the Dear Dots to embellish the card front.

I stamped some of the small hearts inside the card and on the back of the envelope.

Thanks for popping by?

TODAY I HAVE A PUPPY CHRISTMAS TREATS GIFT BOX TO SHARE

I totally enjoy creating gift boxes of all shapes and sizes.

This box features Poppy Parade and Garden Green A4 card.

The base uses a full A4 sheet and was scroed at 2″ on all sides.

The lid started as a full A4 sheet before I trimmed away 7/8″. The sides were then scored at 11/16″ to ensure the lid has enough leeway to fit the base perfectly.

Before the lid was assembled, I added a length of Garden Green & White Chevron Ribbon to the front using Stampin’ Seal+.

Then I adhered a North Pole Delivery DSP panel to the box lid.

The greeting is from the Keeping Traditions Stamp Set and was stamped before cutting the Basic White panel at an angle, on the Garden Green panel.

After adding Adhesive Sheets to the back of some Poppy Parade card, I die cut the letters needed to finish the greeting. I used the Alphabet a La Mode Dies for this.

To finish the lid of the box, I added a pair of precut dogs from the same North Pole Delivery DSP pack.

Next week I will have a new collection of products and projects to share with yuo.

Until then, happy stampijng and scrapbooking.
