Calendar Card

16 March, 20163 March, 2016 craftwithkate

Dear Crafters,

Today I share with you one of the projects we made at my Techniques class last week.

These mini tab calendars prove popular every year, and my class attendees love making projects with them.

We have made an easel card and added the calendar, so the recipient can have it standing on their desk, wardrobe, where ever they place it for the whole year to admire.

We used the Flowering Fields stamp set which we coloured with Stampin’ Write Markers. The background is the Designer Series Paper, Wildflower Fields which coordinates with this stamp set.

I love that we have something quite Australian in the range.

What do you think of this project? My class ladies loved it!

An here is another card using the same stamp set and DSP. I love making Random Act of Kindness cards and popping them in the post to unsuspecting recipients xx

Dear Crafters,

Today I share a bit of news with you that I haven’t informed you about. I am actually not at home blogging this week, as I am in Hawaii with my hubby celebrating our 10th Wedding Anniversary!

Anyhow, I will share some photos with you in the coming weeks when I return and scrapbook/Project Life our journey, but in the meantime, here is the card I gave to my hubby on Saturday.

This is an image of Honolulu that I found on the internet and I added some text and a pic of the island using Photoshop Elements. I thought it was rather appropriate 😉

Hawaii

On the inside of the card I placed this image to the right so I had plenty of room on the left to add my message to him.

This image was created using an app on my phone called Word Pack.

Hawaii2

Happy 10th Wedding Anniversary to my hubby. I hope our next 10 years leads us to an even more exotic location, if that’s even possible!!!

And here is a little reminder of that wonderful day 10 years ago!

Pleat Fold Card

11 March, 201618 February, 2016 craftwithkate

Dear Crafters,

“A party without cakebis just a meeting”, I love that sentiment and I’m sure it will get loads of use.

So today, I’ve tried a new technique which I found on Song of My Heart Stampers website. Although we use slightly different card stock sizes to the USA, I have just altered my design slightly.

I love how bright and cheery this is using Melon Mambo, Daffodil Delight and that stunning It’s My Party Designer Series Paper.

I stamped the cake image onto white card stock and fussy cut it out, then added it to the card with dimensionals. The candle is stamped and then punched out, using the candle from the Party Punch Pack. How cute is it?!!!

Blooming Birthday

9 March, 20163 March, 2016 craftwithkate

Dear Crafters,

In January, I made a similar card to this one, but here I have used some brighter colours.

I started with a black card base and added some Bermuda Bay DSP.

#BalloonCelebration #occasions2016 #stampinup #stampinupaustaalia

Next I stamped the images onto Whisper White card stock using the Memento Black Inkpad. The stems are from the Flower Patch stamp set, as is the sentiment, but those flowers are actually from the Balloon Celebration stamp set. Yes, it is that “wheel” looking stamp that we all looked at and wondered what on earth it goes with in the theme of the balloon celebration stamps.

#BalloonCelebration #occasions2016 #stampinup

The flowers are coloured with the Stampin’ Write Markers, Daffodil Delight, Melon Mambo and Tempting Turquoise. I stamped the dotty circle image onto vellum and punched it out with the 3/4″ circle punch.

I added each vellum circle with a glue dot and then added a large pearl to the centre of each flower.

Check out that gorgeous white jute ribbon behind, adding the perfect amount of texture!!!

Tea Dispenser

7 March, 20163 March, 2016 craftwithkate

Dear Crafters,

Who’s for a cuppa?

Today I share a project for the lovers of tea, a gorgeous tea dispenser!

Fill this up with your favourite tea bags (I have orange and cinnamon tea in mine), or make one as a gift for your favourite tea drinking friend.

I have used the Cup & Kettle Framelits dies, the Have a Cuppa Designer Series Paper Stack and Have a Cuppa Embellishments. Super cute!

And if you purchase the bundle (dies & stamps), DSP
& Embellishments, you will be able to choose any one of the products in the Sale-a-bration brochure for FREE! What an awesome deal.

By the way, this is certainly not my original idea, I saw this idea on YouTube by a lady called Heidi Baks and you can watch her video by clicking here.

Birthday Celebration & You Little Furball

4 March, 20163 March, 2016 craftwithkate

Dear Crafters,

Here’s a new idea for that “wheel” like image from the Balloon Celebration stamp set that no one seems to know what to use it for!

In this card I’ve used it as a background stamp!

Melon Mambo, Basic Black and Whisper White are a classic combination. They go so well together.

Then I also thought that it could be used as a ball of wool or roll of string with the kitty cat playing with it!!!

Has this given you some more ideas of what to use this image for?

Birthday Glitter

2 March, 201618 February, 2016 craftwithkate

Dear Crafters,

Who doesn’t love glitter? I certainly do and this card today is no exception.

There are so many different elements with the sentiment die cut using the Party Pop Up thinlits, the Balloon Bouquet punch and the gorgeous Designer Series Papers.

Check out that stunning Blushing Bride Glimmer paper, o sparkly, it’s simply yummy!

The DSP reminds me of confetti and perfect for a birthday celebration.

Watermelon Wonder and Blushing Bride coordinate so well together don’t you think?

Birthday Blooms

26 February, 201618 February, 2016 craftwithkate

Dear Crafters,

What a stunning flower this is and with the image embossed in white embossing powder on water colour paper and then coloured with the Aqua painter and inks, it is such a stunning bloom!

I have used Blushing Bride & Mint Macaron with a touch of Delightful Dijon in the centre to colour the bloom.

The sentiment is gold embossed and some blushing bride sequins & cotton ribbon added.

The card base is Watermelon Wonder.

Washi Tape Holders

22 February, 201612 February, 2016 craftwithkate

Dear Crafters,

Today I share the cutest idea to store your washi tape!

I initially saw this on Pinterest and clicked on the link which took me to Pootles in the UK who designed this. I made these ones below and then at one of my recent classes, I made one for each customer who attended as a thank you gift and they loved them!

This one above was lade from Blushing Bride card stock and used some of the gorgeous Love Blossoms DSP and the stunning Sequin trim.

Below is another I made using Mint Macaron card stock and some of the Cherry on Top Washi Tape. I also stamped the card before putting it together with the Gorgeous Grunge stamp set.

Pootles created these to suit the Stampin’ Up! Washi Tape sets, so she has designed two different ones, for the 3 set tapes and the 5 set tapes! What a clever lady she is 🙂
