Hello and thank you for popping by to check out today’s project.

As you might guess, I’m using the You’re a Peach Suite again (and, I probably will for a couple more projects to come).

I’m also using the Basic Borders Dies for the first time. I chose the cloud/curved border for today’s card.

The Designer Series Paper is just gorgeous! I thought that the Balmy Blue flowers and stripes would be perfect together.

I started with a Balmy Blue card base. Then I used one of the Blending Brushes to lightly colour the Basic White layer with the Balmy Blue ink. The DSP players were cut with the die positioned in different positions across the cutting plates of my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine.

I layered and adhered the DSP pieces so that they would leave enough of the brushed blue base layer peeking through at the top and bottom. I also added some die cut blue striped DSP to the card insert and envelope. A double bow was attached to the card using a Mini Glue Dot.

The stitching is one of my favourite features on many of the dies in the Stampin’ Up!© catalogue. There are few Blue Adhesive-Backed Gems on the card also.

I am so happy with the way this card looks – I love the soft, round, striped clouds that frame the clusters of flowers. What do you think?

Hello – thanks for popping by. If you’re new to my posts, I’m Michele Miller and I live in Kangaroo Point, Queenlsand, Australia. I’ve been an Independent Stampin’ Up!© for just over 8 years and love what I do.

I usually share a new post each day with my latest projects. They are usually cards and 3D projects, although I plan to start sharing some scrapbooking/ memory keeping projects very soon (it’s been a long time since I actively scrapped). If you have been popping by regularly, you will know that over the past couple of weeks I haven’t posted as regularly because I have been recovering from a knee replacement but I’m “back” now!

Today’s project is another one using the You’re a Peach Suite, focussing on the Designer Series Paper.

I made a split front card so that I could create a cascade of fussy cut ‘floating’ flowers. I started by stamping the floral stamp, in Pale Papaya, down through the centre diagonal of the card front. Then, after cutting the DSP, it was adhered to the card front.

I used Mini Glue Dots to attach the flowers The greeting was stamped in Pear Pizzazz, cut using my Mini Trimmer and popped up with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

A few 2021-2023 In Colour Jewels were added for a touch of bling. Strips of the DSP were used to finish the card insert and envelope. This is quite a simple card to make yet quite pretty. I think that it will make a lovely thank you card for someone. What do you think?

Happy stamping.

Hello and thank you for popping by. I hope you like today’s project.

It has been wonderful getting back into a creative routine. I made three projects yesterday but did not quite get around to posting them, so that’s what I’m doing today.

It is Wednesday, so it’s time to post my Freshly Brewed Project blog hop card. This week’s theme is Case the Catalogue.

I focussed on the You’re a Peach Suite on pages 60-61.

There is a slight difference between the two cards. Can you see it?

The peaches were coloured using Calpso Coral and Pale Papaya. I inked the stamp directly onto the Pale Papaya stamp pad and then applied the Calypso Coral around the outer edge and through the centre of the peach using a sponge dauber. The leaves were stamped in Pear Pizzazz. Then I used the dies to cut the stamped images. These two paper desings are found on the same sheet of You’re a Peach Designer Series Paper. I used some of the blue spot paper to decorate the flap of the envelope and the card insert.

One of the amazing things about each of the Stampin’ Up!© catalogues is the incredible inspiration it provides. Every page has project after project that we can copy or adapt. This card was so quick and easy to CASe.

Make sure you pop over and see what the Freshly Brewed team has cased.

Happy stamping … and caseing.
