Stampin’ Up! Australia - Stampin’ Up! Halloween Birthday card

Hi!

The inspiration image at The Card Concept's challenge this week is beautiful patterned pumpkin decoration - look at those cool chevrons!

I was inspired by the orange chevrons and the Halloween imagery. I know we don’t ‘do’ Halloween here in Australia, but our street and most of our suburb celebrate it and it is a lot of fun. Last year we got about 220 kids through the street - that’s a lot of sugar!! :)

I have a friend who recently celebrated a birthday - so this card is a belated greeting to her. She, like me, loves witches and the ‘stranger things’ so this little stamp is perfect!

Here’s the inspiration image:

I hope you like my card! :)

I have closed my online store but I am still an active demonstrator so if you would like to place an order feel free to email me. :)

Cheers

Stampin’ Up! Australia - Stampin’ Up! Pineapple Birthday Card

Hi!

I’m loving this new Pineapple background stamp from the new 2016-2017 Annual Catalogue. I went crazy with some rainbow brush strokes (from Work of Art) in the background - a mix of 4 new In Colors and 3 from last year.

I used the sketch from CAS(E) This Sketch and flipped it. :)

I hope you like my card! :)

Stampin’ Up! Australia - Stampin’ Up! Pretty Petals DSP

Hi!

Welcome to this week's Artful Stampers Blog Hop and welcome from Jane’s blog.

Here are the essentials:

• I went to my often neglected pile of Designer Series Paper stacks...this one is Pretty Petals. 
• I made a square card and an custom envelope to match from the In Colors Envelope Paper in Tip Top Taupe. I did some tone-on-tone stamping & masking with the line stamp from Tin of Cards and made an address window. :)
• The greeting is from Tin of Cards and the background flower is from Botanical Blooms (stamped off once in Calypso Coral)
• Embellishments....I like having my embellishments in threes so I used 3 Calypso Coral Candy Dots in the top left corner. 
• Gasp - ribbon! I hardly ever use ribbon on my cards as I have a mental block with bows so I did a faux-bow...essentially a knot...with the Tip Top Taupe Lace Ribbon....it’s so pretty! 
• The layout is from Freshly Made Sketches this week.  

Here are our colours for this week:

Stampin’ Up! Australia - Tin of Cards Birthday Card

Hi

Welcome to this week's Create with Connie and Mary Thursday Challenge.

Here are the essentials:

• I used some scraps of Cherry on Top DSP (including the tag) and teamed them with some of the new Metallics Gold Glitter Tape. 
• Stamp on your patterned paper...the black archival ink is perfect to get a bold stamped image over a busy background. I used the birthday sentiment from the Tin of Cards stamp set on my DSP tag. 
• The cotton paper is fantastic for making flowers....I punched 12 flowers with the pansy punch and secured with a brad...just scrunch the layers until you get a flower! 
• My card looked a bit naked even after I added the flower and ribbon so a scattering of sequins was in order. :)

Here is our sketch for this week:
