I have also used the Large Letter framelits that you can get in a bundle saving you 10% but this is only until 31st May. They will be in the new Annual catalogue, but you cannot get it as a bundle, so get yours today by clicking here, you won’t be disappointed!

Anyway, are you ready to see my shaker card?!!!

I am absolutely in love with the new Delightful Daisy Designer Series Paper which will be available to order on 1 June 2017.

The sequins on the inside are the old 2013-2015 In Colour sequin pack, but they actually coordinate quite well with the colours in this DSP!

The large letter framelits were used to create the negative image for the front of the card, creating the shaker section…. but I also used the positive images for the inside of the card! No waste in this house!!!! lol

The sentiment, Happy Mother’s Day is from the Crazy About You stamp set and the flowers stamped on the MUM dies cuts is from brand new Colourful Seasons stamp set.

Floral Wings

27 April, 201624 April, 2016 craftwithkate

Dear Crafters,

Today I use the Hostess stamp set, Floral Wings which also coordinates with our Bold Butterfly Framelits.

I have no idea what this style is called, but I find it quite effective. I cut down a piece of Whisper White card by 5mm on each side. I stamped the butterfly image in the centre and then measured in the same distance from each side towards the centre and drew a line down, but not across the wings. I then cut out that centre portion leaving the butterfly intact.

My colour scheme: Blushing Bride, Melon Mambo, Mint Macaron and Whisper White.

I then stamped the floral images along each edge and added the sentiment.

I embossed the base card with the Elegant Dots TIEF using the Big Shot machine, before adhering the stamped piece.

Tea with flowers

22 April, 201617 April, 2016 craftwithkate

Dear Crafters,

Today I share a card that I created with Mother’s Day in mind!

It isn’t too far away and we need to start thinking about this very special day we celebrate in honour of our mums who have done so much for us to raise us into beautiful human beings.

My colour scheme: Daffodil Delight, Lost Lagoon, Perfect Plum & Whisper White.

I stamped the Petite Petals images multiple times on Whisper White card stock before punching them out with the coordinating punch. The tea cup and spoon are from the Cups & Kettle Framelits dies in the Occasions 2016 catalogue.

I cut a doily into quarters and only used 1 piece. The spoon is Smoky Slate card stock with a little Wink of Stella added to the tip.

A small pearl embellishment was added to each flower to finish it off.

Circle Fancy Fold card

6 April, 20165 April, 2016 craftwithkate

Dear Crafters,

Today I have a circle fold card. I had seen one on a Facebook page that I am a member of, but there were no instructions, so I went about creating my own.

I started by die cutting the large scallop circle framelit from Lost Lagoon card stock and folding it in half. Then I die cut a smaller circle from the 2014-2016 In Colour DSP stack.

I then die cut smaller circles again out of Lost Lagoon and Whisper White and adhered these together and then onto the bottom fold of the card.

The next step was die cutting all the leaves and flowers using the Botanical Builder Framelits with Lost Lagoon, Mint Macaron, Blushing Bride and So Saffron card stock, glued them together. I added some with dimensionals.

Lastly, I added Wink of Stella to the centres of the flowers, I think you can see it in the photos?! I also added some basic pearls to 2 of the smaller flowers.

Isn’t this different? I love trying new things and not just our usual A5 cards all the time, but it still fits into our C6 envelopes….bonus!

And here is another one I made in black, white and the brights!

Bloomin’ Heart at JAI

17 January, 201616 January, 2016 craftwithkate

Dear Crafters,

Today I enter a challenge at Just Add Ink. The challenge this week is from Rochelle who has suggested we all “Just Add Something New”.

With the new Occasions catalogue going live on 5th January, we have plenty of new yummy products to choose from.

Anyway, lets get rolling!

#bloominheartthinlitsdie #loveblossoms #birthdaybouquetdsp #occasions2016 #stampinup #flowers #bowpaperclipsembellishments

I started with a Mint Macaron card base and added a piece of the new Birthday Bouquet DSP. A piece of dotted lace trim in Mint Macaron was added across the centre.

Next I die cut the Bloom’ Heart Framelit from Blushing Bride card stock and glued it to some vellum and then cut around the edges with paper snips. This just gave it a more subtle and frosted background.

#bloominheartthinlitsdie #loveblossoms #birthdaybouquetdsp #occasions2016 #stampinup #flowers #bowpaperclipsembellishments #stampinupaustralia

I stamped the flower images (Bloomin’ Love stamp set) with Blushing Bride ink onto coordinating card stock and die cut them out, before adding with a glue dot and then a pearl into the centre of each one!

The Bow Paper Clip Embellishment was added (how cute are they?!!!)

On the back of the vellum, a dimensional was placed under each of the 5 flowers and added to the card.

#bloominheartthinlitsdie #loveblossoms #birthdaybouquetdsp #occasions2016 #stampinup #flowers #bowpaperclipsembellishments

I stamped the “celebrate” sentiment (from Beautiful Ride stamp set) in Mint Macaron onto Whisper White card stock and used the banner punch at one end.

Don’t forget to decorate the inside panel along with a coordinating envelope!

Bloomin Heart #stampinup

Dear Crafters,

Oh how I love glitter and when we were shown these items at the On Stage Local Stampin’ Up! event 2 weeks ago, ready for release on 5 January, this new Blushing Bride glitter paper is simply stunning , and I had to have it!!!

This is the Bloomin’ Heart Thinlit and the perfect die for this glitter paper.

Bloomin Heart #stampinup

I used a crumb cake card base and layered some blushing bride card which was embossed with the Elegant Dots TIEF. The sentiment (Bloomin’ Love stamp set) is stamped onto whisper white card in crumb cake and blushing bride inks then fussy cut and added with dimensionals.

Blog Hop: Mother’s Day Inspiration

16 April, 201516 April, 2015 craftwithkate

Dear Crafters,

Today I bring you another AWHT blog hop with some of the awesome ladies in the Art With Heart Stampin’ Up! Team. Today our focus is on Mother’s Day!

You have come to my blog from the lovely, Judy May.

Now let’s get started!

Because our focus is on Mother’s Day, I cannot go past flowers! What mum doesn’t love flowers, I know I sure do 🙂

For my project, I have used the Flower Shop Bundle and the Petite Petals Bundle.

Flower Shop

I have used Rose Red as my card base. I die cut the circles using the Circles Framelits on the front of the card. I used two sizes and placed them onto the Magnetic Platform so they stay still and don’t move.

Next I punched out two 1″ circle punches and added 2 dimensionals as shown, before putting the second circle on top!

Stamp the flowers on the front of the card, then turn it over and add dimensionals (doubled up). Add some ribbon around the bottom of the card between the dimensionals and tie in a knot at the front left hand side of the card. Take the paper off the dimensionals and attach it to the front of the card base.

Place the small circles under the inner edge of the framelit as shown below.

Add a 2 dimensionals, doubled up to the back of the centre circle and slide it between the layers of the small circle so that the small circle will now move around the large circles.

Attach all the extra embellishments with dimensionals.

Flower Shop

Be sure to stamp the inside panel of the card and the envelope for a complete set.

I originally saw a similar idea on Dawn Griffith‘s blog.

Let’s keep this blog hop hopping. Next up we have the lovely, Nikki Sadler.
