Best Thoughts

23 October, 201519 October, 2015 craftwithkate

Dear Crafters,

Today I share a floral card created with the Hostess stamp set, Best Thoughts.

I stamped the image on White card stock with Black ink and coloured it with Blender pens using Blushing Bride and Pear Pizzazz ink pads. I started by colouring all the petals and then going back over the bottom part of each petal and making it darker!

I layered the white card onto Blushing Bride card stock then onto the base card of Pear Pizzazz. I added the sentiment in black ink and added 2 rhinestones to the top.

Colouring with Blender Pens

19 October, 201518 October, 2015 craftwithkate

Dear Crafters,

Today I share a pretty card created with the stamp set, You’ve Got This.

I stamped the image on watercolour paper with Versamark ink and heat embossed it with clear powder.

I coloured the image using the Blender pens with Blushing Bride and Pear Pizzazz ink pads. I started by colouring all the petals and then going back over the bottom part of each petal and making it darker! Isn’t it pretty?!!!

You've Got This #stampinup Blender pen flower

I layered the watercolour paper onto a piece of vellum, then Blushing Bride card stock then onto the base card of Pear Pizzazz. I added the sentiment in Smoky Slate ink and 2 candy dots.

Don’t you just love how this coordinates with the envelope by stamping the flower image again?!

Gift Card Holder

9 October, 201524 September, 2015 craftwithkate

Dear Crafters,

Today I share a couple of gift card holders (cased from Claire Daly) which are very simple to make.

You can create 3 of these from 1 x A4 sheet of cardstock by cutting it vertically at 7cm x 29.7cm!

I used the Lots of Labels Framelits to die cut the end of the card, then score it at 3-1/8″ and 7-3/4″.

Emboss the opposite end to the framelit cut end and adhere Stampin’ Up! Tear and Tape to create a pouch. (This tape can be cut vertically so you have a very thin strip, otherwise the gift card won’t fit in!)

Create a belly band that slips over to hold it shut and decorate however you like. I have used the 2-3/8″ Scallop circle punch and added some embellishments. The ice-cream is the Sprinkles of Life stamp set which can be found on the back page of the AC.

and here it is open with the gift card inside!

Artistic in Pink

2 October, 201514 September, 2015 craftwithkate

Dear Crafters,

Today I share another card using the Awesomely Artistic stamp set, similar to the one I shared on Monday.

I have used Blushing Bride, Mossy Meadow, Strawberry Slush coordinated with the colours from the All Abloom Designer Series Paper.

I also used one of the wood accents from the Expressions Natural Elements pack. I added it with the new Fine Tip Glue Pen.

The dragonflies are fussy cut and added with a glue dot.

Don’t forget to decorate the inside of your card, by adding an extra strip of DSP!

This card was originally cased from Claire Daly.

Artistic Awesomeness

28 September, 201514 September, 2015 craftwithkate

Dear Crafters,

Today I share a card using the Awesomely Artistic stamp set. When we received our Annual Catalogue at Convention in May, we went back to the hotel that night and spent hours browsing through this amazing catalogue. When I saw this stamp set, I knew it was going straight onto my wish list!

Anyway, enough reminiscing, check out this card!

I have used Mint Macaron, Old Olive, Basic Black coordinated with the colours from the All Abloom Designer Series Paper.

I also used one of the wood accents from the Expressions Natural Elements pack. I added it with the new Fine Tip Glue Pen.

The new Metal Rimmed Pearls (which are sticky backed) so very easy to use. The dragonflies are fussy cut and added with a glue dot.

Definitely Dahlia

23 September, 201512 September, 2015 craftwithkate

Dear Crafters,

Today I share a card with only one colour using the background stamp, Definitely Dahlia (pg 129 AC)!

My base is Mint Macaron card stock with a layer of Whisper White card and a strip of the 2015-2017 In Colour DSP Stack.

The image is stamped with Mint Macaron ink onto the white card. This is so quick to make and super effective. I love its simplicity and how versatile, whether it be Birthday, Sympathy, Thinking of You or even a Farewell card!

The gorgeous White Satin Robbin tied in a knot adds femininity.

I added some butterflies, using the Elegant Butterfly and Bitty Butterfly punches. The smaller butterfly was stamped first using the Papillon Potpourri stamp set.

Happy Birthday Ang!

24 August, 201521 August, 2015 craftwithkate

Dear Crafters,

Today I share a project with you that I made for a friends birthday yesterday, that uses some retired DSP along with Daffodil Delight card stock. My friends favourite colour is Blue, so I had to make it with these colours for her birthday.

This cute bag uses only 1 sheet of DSP and A4 card stock. How cute is it? It is so sturdy and quite large, so it will easily hold a gift.

Here is the coordinating card that I made to go with it.

You’ve Got This

17 August, 20153 August, 2015 craftwithkate

Dear Crafters,

Today I share a card I made using our Art with Heart Team Challenge!

Being stuck at home with this fractured ankle, what else am I to do, but spend my days crafting. So that is what I did!

I used the middle column as my starting point, seeing as my favourite colour is blue, I love flowers and embossing gives such an amazing texture to my cards.

I have used Pool Party and Island Indigo as my colours, along with some Whisper White.

I stamped the image in Island Indigo and then used the ink and Aqua Painter to colour it. I fussy cut the image and mounted it onto two of the Lots of Labels Framelits, one embossed with the Elegant Dots TIEF.
