Friendship’s Sweetest Thoughts in Watercolour

Dear Crafters,

Today I share this pretty card using the Friendship’s Sweetest Thoughts stamp set in the Occasions catalogue.

I began with a Bermuda Bay card base and layered it up with a piece of Melon Mambo… I adore this colour combo!  A piece of the Delightful Daisy DSP was added.

Next I stamped the image on Whisper White card with Archival Black ink and coloured with the Watercolour Pencils then blended them with the Blender Pens.

This image is then die cut with the Lots of Labels Framelits die and adhered with Tombo Multipurpose glue. I added a bow with some retired ribbon to finish it off perfectly.

Bella & Friends

Dear Crafters,

Well I can tell you that I placed my pre-order for brand new 2017-2018 annual catalogue product yesterday!!! You can do this too, but only if you are a demonstrator or join today so you can get product earlier. Ask me how!

So here are the new 2017-2019 In Colours. Which one is your favourite?

2017-2019 In Colours by Kate Morgan, Independent Stampin Up Demonstrator Australia

I have some cute cards that I started last Thursday while I was in hospital having my infusion. It is a couple of hours of down time, so I often take some stamped images and colour them, making good use of my time. Here are the first two I started with from the Pretty Kitty stamp set, which I will show you shortly.

Watercolouring images of Pretty Kitty

I used the Watercolour pencils and the blender pens.

Isn’t this image just the cutest? I love the sentiment ‘You’ve got a friend in me’.

I am also using some of the designer series paper stacks which are retiring and won’t be carrying over into the new catalogue.

This next one is using Marina Mist and the clouds and sentiments are from the Life Me Up stamp set from the Occasions catalogue. It coordinates so well with this puppy floating away tied to a balloon!

and the last one for today is using some of the new copper trim that is a new product available from 1st June. It can be used like ribbon or it can be opened up to look a bit like a mesh bag or netting. I thought it looked a bit like the puppy had chewed it!!! lol

These cards could be used for any occasion, so I tend to leave off sentiments and add them later if I want them for a specific event.

What do you think about these cute cards?

Best Thoughts

Dear Crafters,

Today I share a floral card created with the Hostess stamp set, Best Thoughts.

Best Thoughts Card #stampinup

I stamped the image on White card stock with Black ink and coloured it with Blender pens using Blushing Bride and Pear Pizzazz ink pads. I started by colouring all the petals and then going back over the bottom part of each petal and making it darker!

Best Thoughts close up #stampinup

I layered the white card onto Blushing Bride card stock then onto the base card of Pear Pizzazz. I added the sentiment in black ink and added 2 rhinestones to the top.

Colouring with Blender Pens

Dear Crafters,

Today I share a pretty card created with the stamp set, You’ve Got This.

You've Got This #stampinup Blender pen flower

I stamped the image on watercolour paper with Versamark ink and heat embossed it with clear powder.

I coloured the image using the Blender pens with Blushing Bride and Pear Pizzazz ink pads. I started by colouring all the petals and then going back over the bottom part of each petal and making it darker! Isn’t it pretty?!!!

You've Got This #stampinup Blender pen flower

I layered the watercolour paper onto a piece of vellum, then Blushing Bride card stock then onto the base card of Pear Pizzazz. I added the sentiment in Smoky Slate ink and 2 candy dots.

Don’t you just love how this coordinates with the envelope by stamping the flower image again?!
