A VERY SWEET DAY …

As I use the new products, from the JANUARY to JUNE MINI CATALOGUE, each day is fun and creative … and, today, OH SO SWEET!

I have just started using the HONEY BEE STAMP SET, DETAILED BEES DIES and the FREE Sale-A-Bration GOLDEN HONEY SPECIALTY DESIGNER SERIES PAPER … and am excited by all the possibilities.

The Honey Bee Stamp Set [151527 – $35 AUD] and Detailed Bee Dies [151526 – $45 AUD] can be purchased as a bundle, enjoying a 10% discount [153792 – $72 AUD].

This bundle coordinates with the Golden Honey Specialty Designer Series Paper [free with a $90 order during Sale-A-Bration] … so, you can order this bundle and add at least $18 in other product [before postage and handling] to ‘earn’ the DSP, for free, while stocks last … SWEET!

If you like all things sweet … these may e the new products for you!

I’d love to hear from you if you have any questions, would like current catalogues or want to place an order.

Thanks for stopping by … enjoy your stamping!

MORE PEACEFUL POPPIES …

I ‘fell in love’ with the PEACEFUL POPPIES SUITE from the moment I saw all the products, when I attended the Stampin’ Up!® On Stage Live event in Dortmund, Germany last November.

Being able to pre-order new products and attend events like On Stage Live are some of the amazing benefits of being a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator. [If you ever wan to know more about the benefits … contact me and let me share them with you!]

SO … here are some of the cards I’ve made …

It’s so easy to forget to use vellum … but it is great when we do.
I’ve always loved angles other than 90 or 180.
Don’t forget our Stampin’ Blends are alcohol based and they are perfect for colourng Basic Pearls and Rhinestones.
A little layering and Dimensionals can create a great effect and layers.
I enjoyed using the stark contrast of the Whisper White against the Blueberry Bliss.
The heat embossed sentiment pops.
Using the COASTAL WEAVE 3D EMBOSSING FOLDER from the TROPICAL OASIS SUITE to dry emboss the vellum gave this card a little something extra. Weaving the die cut leaves also gave an extra point of interest … never stop experimenting.
…and this was the project for my first Coffee & Card class of 2020!

Tomorrow, I will share some images of the memory keeping pages I have done using this suite.

Thanks for stopping by … enjoy your stamping!

INSPIRATION

The ideas for all of our crafting projects come from different places … page after page of samples in our Stampin’ Up! ® catalogues, Pinterest, online images, blogs and Facebook … and, when the products inspire us, our own creativity steps in.

Recently, I watched a Facebook Live by Dawn Griffith from her Glitter Pit [Dawn’s Stamping Thoughts] as she made a Multipanel Accordion Card. Crafters and demonstrators generously share their creations and we have the opportunity to copy or adapt their ideas.

This is the card she made …

BIRTHDAY BONANZA SUITE

Taking the measurements she shared I was inspired to make this card … thanks Dawn!

I have been having a wonderful time using the Peaceful Poppies Suite for cards and some 3D projects.

When I saw the DSP (Designer Series Paper) I knew that I wanted to do some memory keeping (scrapbooking) of part of our 2008 trip to Europe. Rob and I spent some of that time exploring Belgium, mainly around Ypres and the World War I museums, battlefields and cemeteries. I’ll share some of those pages son.

Hope this inspires you … thanks for stopping by … enjoy your stamping!
