Art With Heart Blog Hop

Hello Crafters,

Today I’m excited to bring you a blog hop with some of the awesome ladies in the Art With Heart Stampin’ Up! Team.

Today is the first day of the brand new Occasions Stampin’ Up! Seasonal Catalogue in Australia and also the very first day of our biggest promotion of the year, Sale-a-bration!

If you place an order with me during Sale-a-bration, you can choose a free item with every $90 you spend in one transaction. There are lots of fabulous free items to choose from (ask me for a brochure and an Occasions Catalogue) and the promotion goes right through until 31st March.

Better still, become part of our awesome fun, friendly and supportive Art With Heart team. We have a really large team Australia wide that has been around since Stampin’ Up! came to Australia. We have a very active team forum and also have in person stamp days, challenges, card swaps, product shares and more. When you join during Sale-a-bration, you get to choose whatever you like from our catalogues, but pay just $169 for $255 worth of product (that’s a 33% discount!). It’s quick and easy to join online too. Ask me how!

Now let’s get into showing you what you can make with the great new products in the Occasions and Sale-a-bration catalogues. You have come to my blog from Kathryn Mangelsdorf.

I couldn’t wait to use some of my 2014 Sale-a-bration and Occasions catalogue items along with the Circle Card Framelits. I just adore the Sweet Sorbet Designer Series Paper which can be a free gift to you with a $90 order.

Here is the card (closed) that I want to share with you today that I die cut with the Circle Card Thinlits pack.

and here it is opening with a different piece of the DSP adhered to the inside of the card and a blank section in the centre to write your birthday message.

and here it is open fully. The “yay” sentiment and the piece it’s adhered to, are also part of the Circle Card Thinlits pack!

to create the stamped flower image, I used the technique called Kissing. To do this, you ink up the flower stamp with the Pool Party ink, then ink up another stamp with the black ink. Press (KISS) the 2 stamps together before stamping the flower onto the white cardstock.

Would you like to see more? Yes?

Well here is another small project using the same products, a large post-it note holder!

and here it is open (if you would like the dimensions on how to create your own post-it note holder, just send your request via email or comment below!

and some of the detail of the crystal effects and Dazzling Details on the flower!

Let’s keep this blog hop hopping. Next up we have Ros Davidson.
