Thank You card using Daisy Delight

5 June, 201715 June, 2017 craftwithkate

Dear Crafters,

Today I have a pretty 3D card using the Daisy Delight Bundle!!!

I am just loving these products and will be using it so much over the coming months for sure. It is unbelievable value at under $55 for the stamp set and coordinating punch!

We made these in my class yesterday and the ladies loved the colour combination!

I saw a similar card and for the life of me, I cannot find the original creator anywhere. I will keep looking and be sure to update this post when I find it. UPDATE: I found her, Lavinia Gruizinga from the UK, but it was on a private FB Group so I cannot link to her card!

Team Tulips

1 August, 201631 July, 2016 craftwithkate

Dear Crafters,

On Saturday morning it was my eldest daughters last game of netball for the season. Yes, no more early mornings out in the cold for at least a month until next season starts!

Their coach Sharon, was fantastic with each and every one of them, mentoring them to new heights. So as a thank you, I made this card on behalf of the team to give to her along with a beautiful bunch of flowers.

Pop of Pink, Love is Kindness, Tulips Handmade card #stampinup @cardsbykate

I chose this retired stamp because the team were called the “Tulips” and I felt it as appropriate for the occasion.

I love this Pop of Pink Specialty Designer Series paper. I added some Wink of Stella onto the tulips. Not sure if you can see it in the photo?

Love You Lots

8 July, 201622 June, 2016 craftwithkate

Dear Crafters,

I have recently got my hands on this gorgeously cute Hostess stamp set, Love You Lots!

Love You Lots, Affectionately Yours DSP, #stampinup, Hedgehogs, 2016, #stampinupaustralia, Feminine Handmade Card, DIY, Watermelon Wonder, SU Hostess Set

I just adore all the images in this stamp set, but today I focus on the cute little hedgehogs. I also wanted to use the Affectionately Yours DSP and these Watermelon Wonder and Crumb Cake pages. I find them super busy and sometimes they even make your eyes go funny when you first look at them, so I found that by layering them and mounting them onto black card stock, really broke it up!

Love You Lots, Affectionately Yours DSP, #stampinup, Hedgehogs, #stampinupaustralia, Feminine Handmade Card, DIY, Watermelon Wonder, Hostess Set

I watercoloured the hedgehogs with the Aqua painter and ink pads and used the Markers to colour the flower and stem.

Designer Paper Madness

6 July, 201622 June, 2016 craftwithkate

Dear Crafters,

Today I focus on showcasing the Floral Boutique designer series paper and what better way, than to put multiple pieces onto one card!

Floral Phrases, Floral Boutique DSP, #stampinup, Thank you, 2016, #stampinupaustralia, DIY, Feminine Handmade Card

I stamped the image down the right hand side and layered up pieces of the dsp to the left, overlapping them and matting them with night of navy card stock.

Floral Phrases, Floral Boutique DSP, #stampinup, Thank you, 2016, #stampinupaustralia, Feminine Handmade Card, DIY

I added the sentiment inking up only the word ‘thanks’ from the stamp ‘A special note of thanks to you…’. Then punched it out and layered it onto a scallop oval punched piece of navy card stock and adhered to the card with dimenionals. I added a few rhinestones to finish it off.

Floral Phrases, Floral Boutique DSP, #stampinup, DIY, Thank you, 2016, #stampinupaustralia, Feminine Handmade Card

I even stamped the inside of the card and the envelope!

Dear Crafters,

Here’s a classic navy and white colour combination with a hint of colour!

Floral Phrases, Floral Boutique DSP, #stampinup, DIY, Floral Affection TIEF, 2016, #stampinupaustralia, Feminine Handmade Card

I adore this new designer series paper, Floral Boutique. I have teamed it together with the coordinating stamp set, Floral Phrases and the new Floral Affection Textured Impressions Embossing Folder.

Once I embossed the white card, I die cut it with the Oval framelits. I began by colouring the navy flowers with the aquapainter, but decided to use the Stampin’ Write Markers for a more solid colour. I went over the flowers only with the Wink of Stella.

Sugarplum Sweetness

27 June, 201622 June, 2016 craftwithkate

Dear Crafters,

Oh my, how I do love this colour combination of Sweet Sugarplum and Very Vanilla!

Floral Phrases, Detailed Floral Thinlits, #stampinup, Thank you, 2016, #stampinupaustralia, Feminine Handmade Card, DIY

I have needed to make some thank you cards for some very special people who have been very supportive in helping me out since I had ankle surgery over 4 weeks ago now. I am starting to get up and walk again, but its a huge process. I certainly have a real empathy for those who struggle with any form of disability with the legs. I still have a cast on, but have a special shoe that I wear over the cast to be able to put some weight on it. Anyway, enough of me, lets get back to this stunning card!

Floral Phrases, Detailed Floral Thinlits, #stampinup, Thank you, 2016, #stampinupaustralia, Feminine Handmade Card, DIY, Sweet Sugarplum

I cut a piece of sweet sugarplum card down to fit inside the base card, before using the Detailed Floral Thinlits to die cut the floral images at both ends on the big shot machine using the precision plate. To get all the intricate bits out, I used the new die brush! This was adhered with Tombo Multipurpose Glue.

The sentiment was stamped and punched out with the Word Window punch.

I even stamped a coordinating image on the inside of the card and on the back of the envelope.

Dear Crafters,

Today I use the brand new Detailed Floral thinlits dies, another of my must have on my first annual catalogue order!

Detailed Floral Thinlits, 2016-2018 In Colour Markers, Floral Phrases, DIY, #stampinup, Handmade card, Stampin Up 2016

I started by die cutting the black card with the thinlits and glued them to the top and bottom of the card, then stamped the sentiment and added the enamel dot.

Using the new 2016-2018 In Color Stampin’ Write Markers, I coloured all the flowers and leaves. Because the borders of the thinlits are black, it doesn’t matter how well you colour in as it doesn’t show on the black card!

Dear Crafters,

How are you enjoying all the new products in the 2016-2017 Annual Catalogue? Well, I have placed my order, but I am still waiting for it to arrive, but it should be any day now. I’m stalking the postie every morning, waiting for my delivery!

Here is a card style that I haven’t done for a while, but I love how they look. It may look difficult, but it actually is super easy to create and it still fits into your normal C6 envelope!

Flower Shop, Pansy punch, Affectionately Yours DSP, #stampinup, Petite Petals, Scallop Tag Topper

I love how bright and busy this Designer Series Paper is, however I felt I could only use it on one panel for a bold statement. The sentiment is from the new Thoughtful Banners stamp set and I can see many projects using this over the coming year.

Flower Shop, Pansy punch, Affectionately Yours DSP, #stampinup, Petite Petals, Scallop Tag Topper

I love how the Scallop Tag Topper punch is used to create the closing mechanism for this card and tied off with a coordinating ribbon bow. The inside of the card has been stamped on directly with the same petite petals stamp.

Check out that Wink of Stella on the pansy!

I added some White Perfect Accents to the centres of the smaller flowers, but they were too stark, so I coloured them with my Gold Sharpie to tone them down a little!

Basket for You

3 June, 20163 June, 2016 craftwithkate

Dear Crafters,

Is your product list growing as fast as mine with the excitement of the 2016-2017 Annual Catalogue going live on Wednesday?

Here is a card that was created using one of the Hostess stamp sets, Basket for You.

The image was stamped and die cut with the oval framelits, before water colouring with an Aqua Painter and ink pads in the new 2016-2018 In Colours. The basket is coloured using Sahara Sand and Tip Top Taupe.

The card base is the new Sweet Sugarplum, embossed with the Elegant Dots Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. The next layer is a piece of Marina Mist Designer Series paper and a layer of Silver Glimmer paper edged with the Banner Triple punch.

The sentiment was stamped in coordinating ink and seeing as I don’t have the new Bunch of Banners Framelits yet, I had to fussy cut the sentiment! Poor me!!!!

I added the oval and the sentiment with dimensionals.
