Lost Lagoon: Sunflowers Black Out Embossing Technique

26 November, 20253 November, 2025 craftwithkate

Welcome to the Colour Creations Instahop. You can follow us on Instagram starting @craftwithkate. Each week we will showcase the Stampin’ Up! colours in alphabetical order.

Week 30 – Lost Lagoon

This handmade card features the Sunflowers 3D Embossing Folder, Stampin’ Blends Combo Markers and some die sets; Branching Out and Party Alphabet.

After embossing a piece of Basic White cardstock, turn it over and colour the debossed side with your Darling Duckling, Lost Lagoon and Pecan Pie markers. Take the Secret Sea inkpad and gently drag it across the entire surface to create the black out, then sit it aside to dry. Doesn’t it make those flowers pop?!!!

This piece is mounted onto some Brushed Metallic cardstock then onto a Lost Lagoon card base. A label is diecut from Lost Lagoon card using the Branching Out dies and the ‘H’ ‘B’ is diecut from the Floral Delight Designer Series Paper using the Party Alphabet dies. The sentiment is from the new Banner Sayings Bundle, comprising a stamp set and the Three Banner Punch.

On the inside, I added more of the Branching Out cut dies to frame the message panel and added the greenery which is part of the dies pack. These are covered in Wink of Stella so the are glittery!

Thanks for dropping by. I hope you join me next Wednesday for Melon Mambo inspiration.

Lemon Lime Twist: Concertina Fun Fold card

12 November, 20253 November, 2025 craftwithkate

Welcome to the Colour Creations Instahop. You can follow us on Instagram starting @craftwithkate. Each week we will showcase the Stampin’ Up! colours in alphabetical order.

Week 28 – Lemon Lime Twist

This handmade fun fold card features the Charming Day Bundle. I have paired Lemon Lime Twist with Berry Burst and Night of Navy.

Here is a closeup of the ink blending on that beautiful rose and the dry embossing on the Lemon Lime Twist card with the Beautiful Patterns Embossing Folder.

But here is where the magic happens, as you open the card to reveal this concertina. The gorgeous Floral Charm Designer Series Paper coordinates with the Charming Day stamps, which you can see stamped in the background as a tone on tone look and the floral on the White panel was done with Write Markers, inking directly onto the stamp and onto the card.

The Branching Out dies were used to cut the 2 centre panels for the concertina to slide through. Connie Stewart, Simply Simple Stamping gave me the idea for this card.

Many of us also participate in the Heart of Christmas blog hop that goes live every Monday night, where we showcase Christmas inspiration in the lead up to Christmas. We would love you to follow us!

Thanks for dropping by. I hope you join me next Wednesday for Lemon Lolly inspiration.

Heart of Christmas 9: Branching Out Shaker card

27 October, 202527 October, 2025 craftwithkate

Welcome to the Heart of Christmas blog hop for 2025!
I’m thrilled you are here to join us each Monday evening for the AWHT Heart of Christmas Blog Hop showcasing Stampin’ Up! seasonal products.

Week 9

This handmade shaker card features the Branching Out dies and the Peaceful Garden Designer Series Paper (DSP).

A LITTLE ‘WHY’ ABOUT THIS CARD
I was inspired by a card Tami Hewlett created and I had these Gold Shaker Stars in anticipation of making some shaker cards. Seeing Tami’s card gave me great inspiration to make one similar.

How you can re-create this card

1. Create the base – a Crumb Cake card base, 29.7cm x 10.5cm, scored @ 14.8cm.

2. Layering – Some DSP 14.3cm x 10cm has Pecan Pie ink blended around the edges then adhered to the card base. Die cut die #2 (#1 being the smallest) in Basic White card then using a Blending Brush, gently blend Old Olive ink on the lower section. Adhere this to the centre of the card (sits behind the shaker element). To cut the Secret Sea card, place dies #1 and #3 with the smaller inside, and equal distance between them and run through your die cutting machine. Adhere a piece of Window Sheet behind the Secret Sea element. Add Foam Adhesive Strips on the back ensuring it is fully enclosed so no shaker bits will fall out once attached. Carefully place some of the shaker stars onto the white card, remove the backing from the foam strips and carefully place the window element on top.

3. Die Cut Embellishments – die cut some pinecones in Crumb Cake card, pine needles fom the green piece of Seasons of Elegance SDSP and the berries from Basic White card. The stems of the berries are coloured using the Old Olive Stampin’ Write Marker. The pinecones have some Pecan Pie ink gently blended. Adhere these pieces, starting with the pine needles, to the top corner of the shaker element. Next the pinecones then the berries.

4. Add the sentiment – one of the Greetings For You Mix & Match Ephemera Pack sentiments is added with a Dimensional behind the right side.

5. Finishing touches – some Traditional Sparkling Sequins and a Gold Striped Mesh Ribbon bow are added.

Many of us also participate in the Colour Creations Instagram hop that goes live every Wednesday night. We showcase one SU colour each week. We would love you to follow us!

Thanks for dropping by. I hope you join me next Monday for more Chrismas inspiration.

Please enjoy the wonderful inspiration of our next team member, Sue Madex.

Granny Apple Green: Sending Sunshine with Sunflowers

22 October, 202517 October, 2025 craftwithkate

Welcome to the Colour Creations Instahop. You can follow us on Instagram starting @craftwithkate. Each week we will showcase the Stampin’ Up! colours in alphabetical order.

Week 25 – Granny Apple Green

This handmade card features the Sunflowers 3D Embossing Folder. Being my first time playing with it, I began by simply colouring it with Blends Combo Markers in this bright colour combination!

A LITTLE ‘WHY’ ABOUT THIS CARD
I recently had a friend move away from the city for her country lifestyle and I wanted to send her some sunshine for her new start in country living!

How you can re-create this card

1. Create the base – a Granny Apple Green card base, 21cm x 14.9cm, scored @ 10.5cm.

2. Colour – the embossed card is coloured using Stampin’ Blends Combo Markers: Daffodil Delight, Lemon Lolly, Granny Apple Green, Pecan Pie & Pool Party. Once dry, I went over the sunflowers with the Wink of Stella (it doesn’t photograph well) but I can assure you it is so sparkly in real life!

3. Layering – Wrap a piece of Gold Striped Ribbon around the embossed layer and tie is a bow. Add this layer to the card base.

4. Add the sentiment – one of the Greetings For All Mix & Match Ephemera Pack sentiments is added on Dimensionals.

5. Finishing touches – some Adhesive-backed Dragonflies are added.

Thanks for dropping by. I hope you join me next Wednesday for Gray Granite inspiration.

Fresh Freesia: Charming Day Birthday

1 October, 20251 October, 2025 craftwithkate

Welcome to the Colour Creations Instahop. You can follow us on Instagram starting @craftwithkate. Each week we will showcase the Stampin’ Up! colours in alphabetical order.

Week 22 – Fresh Freesia

This handmade card features the Charming Day stamp set, coordinating dies and Floral Charm Designer Series Paper (DSP).

A LITTLE ‘WHY’ ABOUT THIS CARD
I adore this style of card, however I’m not naturally able to come up with it myself, so I need to thank Kim McGillis who I cased the idea from. I was very happy with the result and adore this colour combination of Fresh Freesia, Crumb Cake and Pecan Pie.

How you can re-create this card

1. Create the base – a Pecan Pie card base, 21cm x 14.5cm, scored @ 10.5cm.

2. Stamp and colour – the card base is stamped with the floral image in Pecan Pie ink for a beautiful tone-on-tone look. Two more images are stamped onto Basic White card and die cut with the coordinating die. These are coloured with Water Painters and inks; Fresh Freesia and Crumb Cake. The sentiment is stamped onto Basic White card and flagged at either end with Paper Snips to create a banner.

3. Layering – Some Fresh Freesia cardstock [12.5cm x 8.5cm] is ruffed up around the edges with Paper Snips and the corners folded slightly for that rustic look. A piece of the patterned paper, the same size is added on the angle. A Basic White die cut [Traditional Labels dies] has some ink blending with Fresh Freesia ink. I used the Fresh Freesia Stampin’ Write Marker to flick some splatter onto the label. Sitting the sentiment in place, I was able to add the floral images so they partially sit behind. I die cut some of the leaves in Crumb Cake and Pecan Pie card and placed them behind the floral images and the label.

4. Add the sentiment – added on Dimensionals and then I used my Pecan Pie Stampin’ Write Marker to splatter some ink across the sentiment and floral images.

5. Finishing touches – a double bow of Linen Thread is added on a Glue Dot and some Starburst Sequins added. On the inside, a simple Basic White insert with a stamped image and this same treatment was added to the envelope!

Thanks for dropping by. I hope you join me next Wednesday for Garden Green inspiration.

10 September, 20258 September, 2025 craftwithkate

Welcome to the Colour Creations Instahop. You can follow us on Instagram starting @craftwithkate. Each week we will showcase the Stampin’ Up! colours in alphabetical order.

Week 19 – Daffodil Delight

This handmade card features the Extraordinary Flora stamp set and coordinating die and the Charming Day dies.

A LITTLE ‘WHY’ ABOUT THIS CARD
I’m loving the predominant white space of this card with the pop of colour in the flowers and the moody tones with the ink blending on the banner. The sentinent ‘with love’ is so versatile that this card could be for a wedding, someone special, anniverary, Mother’s Day or a birthday!

How you can re-create this card

1. Create the base – a Thick White card base, 21cm x 14.9cm, scored @ 10.5cm.

2. Stamp and colour – the stamp is inked with Secret Sea onto Basic White card and coloured using Blends Combo Markers – Daffodil Delight, Peach Pie, Soft Sea Foam and Lost Lagoon, then die cut with the Extraordinary die. The Banner [Party Banners dies] has ink blending in Secret Sea around the edges and some Daffodil Delight in the centre using Blending Brushes.

3. Layering – on the card base, I adhered the leaves [Charming Day dies]. The banner has a small piece of Secret Sea Glimmer Paper [Peaceful Garden Glimmer] added behind the top and these are added on Dimensionals. Then the floral images are glued and popped up on Dimensionals.

4. Add the sentiment – stamped onto the banner with Secret Sea ink.

5. Finishing touches – Wink of Stella is used on the flowers, some Traditional Sparkling Gems are added and a White Baker’s Twine bow.

Thanks for dropping by. I hope you join me next Wednesday for Early Espresso inspiration.

Cherry Cobbler: Flowerpot Easel card

13 August, 202513 August, 2025 craftwithkate

Welcome to the Colour Creations Instahop. You can follow us on Instagram starting @craftwithkate. Each week we will showcase the Stampin’ Up! colours in alphabetical order.

Week 15 – Cherry Cobbler

This handmade card features the Coneflower Celebrations Bundle (stamp set and coordinating dies) and the Woven Textures Designer Series Paper (DSP).

This is the card sitting for display.

Here you can see how the card sits flat to fit into an envelope. You can also see close up of the Damask Designs Embossing Folder on the flowerpot. The flower itself is Cherry Cobbler with a Basic White layer that has been gently inked using a Blending Brush. The top is Pecan Pie. Wink of Stella is added over the ink blending for sparkle.

The same piece of doubled sided patterned paper is used. The A side with the photographic rattan texture side and the ‘B’ side/reverse, is the more subdued linen texture. I added some stamped splatter to this in Pecan Pie ink with the same cardstock as matt layers. The strip across the centre is added on Dimensionals, so that the flowerpot sits behind it to display. The butterfly is stamped in Pecan Pie and coloured using Stampin’ Write Markers; Cherry Cobbler, Fresh Freesia and Pecan Pie.

Opening the above layer, is the hidden panel for writing your message. The same butterfly was stamped in the bottom corner with Versamark ink, White WOW Emboss Powder added and melted with my Heat Tool. Some light ink blending was then added and a sentiment stamped next to it in Cherry Cobbler ink.

Thanks for dropping by. I hope you join me next Wednesday for Coastal Cabana inspiration.
