STAMPIN’ SUNDAY &TIME TO SHARE

The card I am sharing with you today is my submission for this week’s Global Design Project challenge.

This week is a sketch challenge and I loved all the projects made by the GDP Design Team. Check them out for yourself – http://www.global-design-project.com/2024/01/global-design-project-430-sketch.html

This week I will be featuring the Perennial Lavender Suite Collection and this is the first project using it.

I started with a Gorgeous Grape cardbase and added an embossed layer. The Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder was used.

Then I die cut three DSP pieces using the Perrenial Postage Dies. One of them was stamped using a greeting from the Love This Moment Stamp Set.

Then I cut and offset two pieces of paper from the Perennial Lavender Designer Series Paper collection.

I chose one of the butterflies from the Paper Butterfly Accents and coloured it, with a Blending Brush, using Fresh Freesia Classic Stampin’ Pad.

I adhered some of the DSP on the envelope and added a strip on the card insert.

Finally, I added Gorgeous Grape Glossy Dots from the Assortment pack.

For the rest of this week I have five more projects to share with you.

Until then, happy stamping.

IT’S FRIDAY & TIME FOR SOME FEATURES AND A FUN FOLD CARD

This week I have featured several of the FREE Sale-a-bration productions that are available, while stocks last, until the end of February.

Another feature of Sale-a-bration is the JOINING OFFER.

Customers who join the Stampin’ Up! fun crafting community as a new demonstrator can get $235 AUD worth of product PLUS our Stampin’ Glass Mat Studio* (a $106 AUD value) for just $169 AUD!

Customers who want to join Stampin’ Up! during Sale-A-Bration but are interested in a different join option can instead get $235 AUD worth of product PLUS an additional $51 AUD worth of product of their choice when they join for $169 AUD. That’s a $286 AUD value! 

Today’s card uses the Detailed Dogwood Cling Stamp Set from the Sale-a-bration Brochure. You can choose this when you place a minimum $90AUD order (before shipping).

This, image only, stamp set has a variety of botanical and geometric designs.

The darker single flower image, in the centre above, coordinates with the Petal Park Builder Punch.

For this card, I have also used the Perennial Postage Stamp Set and Dies.

I cut a piece of Basic White cardstock using the second largest Perennial Postage Dies. Then I stamped the cross hatched image, dragonfly, the ampersand symbol and rectangle # image two to three times.

The larger dogwood image was stamped in Crumb Cake before I coloured it using Stampn’ Blends in Calypso Coral, Daffodil Delight and Garden Green.

The flowers were then painted with Wink of Stella to add some shimmer.

The flowers were fussy cut and placed on the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I attached this panel to a piece of Calypso Coral that was cut using the largest of the Perennial Postage Dies.

These layers were then adhered to a Basic White card base.

The amperstand symbol was also stamped inside the card and on the envelope.

A length of Calypso Coral Braided Linen Trim was tied into a bow and attached to the card using a Mini Glue Dot.

I am not sure what I will have to share with you tomorrow but I hope that you will pop by and take a look.

Until then, happy stamping.

THURSDAY MEANS THAT IT IS TIME FOR A 3D PROJECT

Today’s 3D project is not a gift box but a shadow box decor piece.

When I chose the Jungle Pals Stamp Set and Jungle Pals Dies, from the Sale-a-bration Brochure, I knew exactly what I wanted to make with it.

To earn these products, I needed a qualifying $270 order (before shipping). This bundle is well worth the order!

This is such a cute collection of jungle animals – lemur, toucan, sloth, alligator and tiger.

There are 15 dies in this set. Five of them coordinate with the Jungle Pals and the remaining dies provide elements to create their world.

I used an Ikea shadow box frame to create this decor piece.

(Oops – I am still working on photography skills – and how to reduce reflection in my images).

I stamped each of the animals before enjoying the time I spent colouring them with Stampin’ Blends.

Using the tree, leaves and vine dies, I cut so many pieces across a range of colours. I was able to create each panel of this decor item from these die cuts.

I used Copper Clay, Garden Green and Old Olive.

I used the new Mini Alphabet Dies, with Adhesive Sheet attached to the back of some Copper Clay cardstock, to cut out the decor title.

Each of the decor panels were adhered to a piece of paper from the Trusty Toolbox 12″ x 12″ Designer Series PAper.

I used so many Stampin’ Blends in this project and the end result is fantastic.

What do you think?

Tomorrow I have one more Sale-a-bration project to share with you.

Until then, happy stamping.
