Tonight’s AWHT Colour Creations Blog Hop features Seaside Spray, and what a gorgeous colour. I can see myself using this one lots!

This card is 4″ x 4″ using the Daisy Lane stamp set. The Stamparatus plays a big part in creating this In the Round technique.

Floating Balloons

20 June, 201914 June, 2019 craftwithkate

I shared this technique on Tuesday in the Terracotta Tile and Mosaic Mood DSP, and this one was a little easier that I taught at my last class.

We just used the Balloon Bouquet Punch in cardstock colours; Crushed Curry, Granny Apple Green, Pacific Point & Poppy Parade.

This was a lovely bright colour scheme to suite either feminine or masculine occasions. Wouldn’t any child love this one?!!

Once we had the balloons all stuck down, we covered them with the Wink of Stella for that gorgeous shimmer.

The sentiment is from the Special Celebrations stamp set and inked in Pacific Point.

Colour Creations: Terracotta Tile Floating Frame

18 June, 201913 June, 2019 craftwithkate

AWH Colour Creations Blog Hop

Tonight’s AWHT Colour Creations Blog Hop features Terracotta Tile, the 3rd of our new 2019-2021 In Colours.

This is the Floating Frame Technique that you may have seen everywhere, as it’s been the most popular technique since earlier this year (Google it and you’ll find loads of videos on how to make them). I was also fortunate enough to have some fellow demonstrator team mates in Auckland early for OnStage Live who were able to purchase a roll of the Glad Press & Seal product to make these projects (it’s not easy to get here in Australia).

Floating Frame technique using Stampin Up Mosaic Mood DSP by Kate Morgan Australia 2019

I decided to fussy cut all the images of a sheet of the Mosaic Mood DSP one evening during our family movie time 🙂

I love the fact that we actually get 2 cards from this technique too!

Doesn’t it look effective?! I love this technique but make sure you have time and not be in a rush. I added some rhinestones and glitter enamel dots to the spaces for some extra sparkle and interest.

This second card doesn’t have a sentiment yet, as I will add the appropriate one at the right time.

If you are going to have a go at this technique, be warned, you need to have loads of dimensionals and patience! Getting those backings off the dimensionals takes time, hehe.

The sentiment is from the Daisy Delight stamp set, inked with Terracotta Tile.

Mosaic Mood Masterpiece

13 June, 20194 June, 2019 craftwithkate

When we were in New Zealand for the Stampin’ Up! conference, OnStage Live in April, this Specialty Designer Series paper, Mosaic Mood was an all attendee give-a-way and wow, you need to see it to appreciate its beauty. It has shiny accents just like mosaic tiles and it’s super pretty.

I was so tired the other night, I had no brain power to think about stamping and designing a card, so I at down and cut up 2 of the sheets of the Mosaic Mood paper into all the flowers, butterflies and hummingbirds to use later when I was ready and this is what I came up with.

Mosaic Mood & Woven Heirlooms Birthday card, Stampin Up Australia by Kate Morgan

I embossed the Blushing Bride base card front with the Subtles Dynamic TIEF and then die cut the window with the Rectangle Stitched Framelits Dies in Very Vanilla cardstock. I glued the flower image to the centre of the card and placed the frame over the top with Foam Adhesive Strips for height.

Mosaic Mood & Woven Heirlooms Birthday card, Stampin Up Australia by Kate Morgan.

I stamped the sentiments in the new Terracotta Tile ink as it coordinates with this DSP!

I placed some more flowers that were cut from the edges of the paper and placed them in the corner. Make sure you don’t waste them by throwing them out, thinking they are not complete images, they are perfect for this reason!!!

Colour Creations: Daisies in Pretty Peacock

11 June, 20199 June, 2019 craftwithkate

AWH Colour Creations Blog Hop

So today I am featuring Pretty Peacock, and what a stunning colour it is. I have used it with Very Vanilla, the 2019-2021 In Colour 6″ x 6″ DSP and the Daisy Lane stamp set. This also coordinates with the Daisy punch and a new Medium Daisy punch is also available now, but of course mine hasn’t arrived yet, so I fussy cut the small daisy images for now!

I used my bone folder to give the petals more dimension, gently curling them up.

Do you notice that gorgeous new In Colour scalloped linen ribbon too? It’s so gorgeous. I also love the font of the sentiment and how cleanly it stamped. WOW! The new Stitched Nested Label dies are a great addition to your die cutting collection.

The stems was stamped on Pretty Peacock cardstock in the same ink and fussy cut.

Are you going to add the Daisy Lane stamp set to your order? You should, it is amazing and can be used for so many different projects.

Free as a Bird

6 June, 20194 June, 2019 craftwithkate

Now you’ve had a couple of days to look through the catalogue, what are your must have items? Any of the ones I shared with you on Tuesday?

I am loving the Bird Ballad Laser Cut Cards & Tin. Here I have used it with some of the Bird Ballad Designer Series paper behind the laser cut card.

Bird Ballad Suite & Laser Cut Tin, Stampin Up Australia by Kate Morgan

Then I stamped the image & sentiment onto whisper white card and coloured it with Stampin’ Blends markers before die cutting with the Stitched Nested Labels Dies.

I placed some Petal Pink Organdy Striped ribbon behind the die cut and adhered them to the card with dimensionals.

Bird Ballad Suite & Laser Cut Tin Stampin Up Australia by Kate Morgan.

How gorgeous is this bird image? I stamped quite a few one day and then on a Saturday night, usually it’s family movie night in our house, and I wasn’t so interested in watching their choice of movie, so I sat with them and coloured the images. Great use of time I reckon!!!

Will you be adding any of these products to your collection?

Colour Creations: Daisy Lane in Rococo Rose

4 June, 20194 June, 2019 craftwithkate

AWH Colour Creations Blog Hop

I’m a little sad that our AWHT Colour Creations Blog Hop has finished, but never fear, we are going to continue for the another 5 weeks showcasing the 5 new In Colours!!!

So tonight we are starting with Rococo Rose, and at this stage I think this one is my favourite colour.

I am loving the Daisy Lane stamp set and I have paired it with loads of new product from the Annual catalogue which started today!!! Yay!!!

My card base is Rococo Rose cardstock with a layer of Whisper White embossed with the Subtle Dynamic Embossing Folder.

The 2019-2021 In Colour Designer Series Paper Stack is awesome for creating cards and here I have used it by cutting it out with the 1-3/4″ circle punch in each of the designs in the 6″ x 6″ paper stack. The Scalloped Linen Thread is super pretty and I just had to add it to my card.

Daisy Lane in Rococo Rose Stampin Up Australia by Kate Morgan.JPG

The daisy is stamped twice in Rococo Rose ink on the same colour cardstock and punched out using the Daisy punch. I joined them together with Tombo Multipurpose glue and used the bone folder to gently curl the petals for a more realistic look. That gorgeous iced rhinestone in the centre is retired unfortunately, but I love it. The stem was stamped in Crumb Cake ink on whisper white card and fussy cut.

Don’t forget the add some stamped images and/or DSP to the inside of your card!

The Hugs from Shelli Paper Pumpkin Kit has just sold out (argh) as it was only while stocks last. I will still share my take on the kit though, with a full A5 size card, showing that you don’t have to follow the instructions in the kit! See that crinkly layer, well that is the tissue paper inside the kit box that the items are wrapped in. I scrunched it up and made it a layer. This card features Petal ink and Pretty Peacock.

The feathers were stamped on Very Vanilla cardstock and fussy cut before sitting up on dimensionals. That velvet ribbon is stunning too.

That layer under the feathers is the card front of one of the notecards that I cut a strip off. I will use the other section on another card later. I love the font of the sentiment and Hugs can be used for so many different occasions.

Hugs from Shelli Paper Pumpkin Kit

30 May, 201923 May, 2019 craftwithkate

Oh wow, if you haven’t seen the Hugs from Shelli Paper Pumpkin Kit, you need to get one!

I am not one to purchase kits, but this one is amazing. It includes an exclusive stamp set, paper and crafting materials to create 12 cards (3 cards of 4 unique designs), 12 exclusive coordinating envelopes, and a Classic Stampin’ Ink Spot. The only thing you need is an acrylic block to mount the stamps on, but most people already have one of those.

Oh and did I show you the stunning box it comes in? That is a keeper too, don’t you agree?

Yes I purchased 3 kits, 1 for each of my friends too as they didn’t want to miss out on this opportunity to get their hands on a Paper Pumpkin kit. Paper Pumpkin is readily available in the USA as a monthly subscription, but this is a one off for the South Pacific to get a taste of what it’s all about. Now I have one, I am hoping it may come to Australia in the future, fingers crossed.

Are you ready to see the cards I made? I’m sharing one of each to show you what can be created. When I opened the kit, I told myself I would follow the instructions for at least one of each design, but you guessed it, I couldn’t do it and I did add or change a few small things, but mostly followed the instructions 😉

I’m loving the vellum feather and I added the stamped feather on the label which I stamped in Pool Party ink.

I adore this Pretty Peacock Velvet Ribbon – wish it was available to purchase – I really want more of it!

and I think this one is my new favourite – jut look at that little bird embellishment, super cute! I also stamped the floral image behind the sentiment in Petal Pink (stamped off).

Colour Creations: Tranquil Tide with Cling Wrap Technique

28 May, 201922 May, 2019 craftwithkate

9bdc0-34343751_10157403755198098_7101250458500464640_o

Welcome back to another Art With Heart Team Colour Creations weekly Blog Hop. Today we are featuring our 50th and final Stampin’ Up! colour; Tranquil Tide. I have to say I have thoroughly enjoyed being part of this blog hop each week and thank Catherine for coordinating it all year long! xx

This card uses the Cling Wrap technique and the Rooted in Nature Suite of products.

The cling wrap technique is using some cling wrap or even an old plastic bag from the supermarket, scrunch it up and drab it into an inkpad and then dab onto the cardstock. Repeat this process with a couple of other colours. I have used Balmy Blue, Coastal Cabana & Soft Sea Foam onto a small piece of Soft Sea Foam cardstock. Once I had the coverage I wanted, I stamped the image & sentiment in Black ink.

Rooted in Nature for Colour Creations Tranquil Tide Blog Hop by Kate Morgan, Stampin Up Australia 2019..

Then I placed the card into my Stampin’ Trimmer and cut it on the diagonal. No special measurement, just sliced it twice. I glued it onto some tranquil tide card leaving a small gap between each section, before mounting onto some black cardstock. Doesn’t it give a great effect?!!!

The 1/2″ Woven Ribbon (retired) was the perfect addition for my Tranquil Tide card.

The card base is Basic Black with a layer of Nature’s Poem Designer Series Paper.

Rooted in Nature for Colour Creations Tranquil Tide Blog Hop by Kate Morgan, Stampin Up Australia 2019.

Once the card was finished, I added some Wink of Stella (my favourite product!) over the tree image and added a couple of rhinestones.

On the inside I had to add a layer of tranquil tide then some whisper white to be able to write on. It looked a little plain, so I added a small strip of the same DSP.
