Stampin' Up! Australia - Stampin' Up! Lego Card

Hi

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

When I saw our colour challenge for this week, the first thing that jumped to mind was LEGO!!!

Probably because I am surrounded by the stuff. It is everywhere in my house. :)

I stamped the Lego image with Stazon onto Watercolour paper and then coloured using an Aquapainter with Cucumber Crush, Pacific Point and Tangerine Tango. The strip of paper is from the Cherry on Top DSP stack. 

I also made a bright and fun envelope using my Envelope Punch Board and pulled some Cucumber Crush from the In Color Envelope Paper pack.

I stamped the inside of the card with the lego image in Cucumber Crush and did the same across the bottom of the envelope (not seen). 

I used the very CAS sketch from CAS(E) This Sketch for my card. 

 Here are our beautiful and vibrant Create with Connie and Mary colours....

Stampin' Up! Australia - Color Coach Card #129 - No Bones About It

Sahara Sand #2

#ColorCoachJourney 

Hi

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

We have a sketch challenge this week so it's another opportunity for me to use some Color Coach colours. This combo is Sahara Sand, Cajun Craze and Pacific Point.  I thought these would look great on a dinosaur card for my nephew. 

Here's my card...

I found a scrap piece of Irresistibly Yours DSP that had already been sponged with Pacific Point, so I trimmed it with the new Triple Banner punch to give the banner shape. I added some Naturals Chevron ribbon under it just for texture and then stamped all my dinosaurs above it on some Whisper White card stock. 

I had some retired Neutrals DSP so I made a matching envelope with the Sahara Sand page (and the AWESOME Envelope Punch Board!!) and used a strip down the edge of my card too. 

Here's our sketch....

Stampin' Up! Australia - Stampin' Up! Bohemian Washi Tape

Hi!

Welcome to this week's CASE-ing the Catty Blog Hop! Welcome from Judy's blog!

This week the Blog Hop challenge is all about CASE-ing a project from the Everyday section (pages 73 - 110) of the 2015-2016 Stampin' Up! Catalogue. 

CASE stands for Copy and Share Everything.  This whole blog hop is about using the current Stampin' Up! Catalogues to help you create.  Sometimes crafters need a springboard to just get started and the catalogues are certainly a demonstrator or customer's best resource.

I was inspired by the Bohemian DSP colours and stamps but thought I would use Washi Tape instead on my card.

My card is a "Tall & Skinny" card...I had the base and the Whisper White layer already prepared from a previous abandoned project for a Mojo Monday challenge. I thought it would look super cute with some washi lines across it. The Washi tape is from the Bohemian pack and the Cherry on Top pack.

The sentiment from Amazing Birthday was stamped in Rich Razzleberry, punched with a 1 1/4 circle punch and then layered onto a Blackberry Bliss mat that had been punched with the Label Bracket punch.

I used torn pieces of Washi on my envelope too.

Here's my inspiration....

Hi

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

I chose Color Coach colours of Sahara Sand, Pear Pizzazz and Early Espresso to make a neutral toned Christmas Card.

Please don't look at the crooked pearls!! DON'T JUDGE ME! :)

The sketch called for diagonal details so I just used the Stylish Stripes Embossing Folder to keep the layers minimal. 

Here is our sketch...

Card recipe

Stamp - Wondrous Wreath, Sassy Salutations

Ink - Sahara Sand, Early Espresso, Pear Pizzazz

Cardstock- Very Vanilla, Timeless Elegance Designer Series Paper, Sahara Sand

Tools - Big Shot, Wondrous Wreath Framelit Dies, Stylish Stripes Embossing Folder, 
Stampin' Trimmer, Multipurpose Liquid Glue, 
Paper Snips, Dimensionals
Accessories - Pearls

I hope you will join in and create a card with us.....and please feel free to leave me and the other CCMC participants some comments! :)

Stampin' Up! Australia - Stampin' Up! Butterfly Basics

Hi

Welcome to this week's Artful Stampers Blog Hop. Welcome from Tamsin's blog. 

We have a Freestyle week for the blog hop this week so anything goes!

CASOLOGY have a 'Wings' challenge too so I was inspired to do something butterfly related.

Ages and ages ago, the wonderful Catherine Pooler was way ahead of the trend and created a beautiful recessed butterfly card which was just stunning! I have trawled the inter webs to try and find it, but I can't locate the image so if you find it, please let me know. Go visit her blog and StampNation anyway - she is amazing!

Here's my card...
