Designer/Patterned/Specialty Papers (DSP), Gift Ideas, Stampin' Up!

Designer necklace & earrings

Dear Crafters,

Today I have many more jewellery pieces to share with you. Some are necklaces by themselves and some are sets of necklace & earrings!

Do you make cards or scrapbook and have loads of designer papers that you buy, but they are too darn pretty to use? Well, this is a great way to use up some of those retired papers.

I just love to showcase the Stampin’ Up! Designer Series Papers and what better way to do that, than by wearing it around your neck!

What do you think of these? Why don’t you give them a try too.

Just Add “S”

Dear Crafters,

It has been quite a few months since I have entered any challenges, but today I enter the Just Add Ink challenge, “Just Add S” to your project (#318).

So I have chosen to add a Sunburst!

Love Blooms Baby Bear Sunburst Feminine handmade card #stampinup, DIY, @cardsbykate #stampinupaustralia

I love making this style of card, not only does it showcase so many of the wonderful Stampin’ Up! papers, but it can also use up some smaller scraps left over from previous projects.

I also adore this new Baby Bear stamp set. Isn’t it just adorable? I have stamped it with Sahara Sand, Crumb Cake and Soft Suede, as it is a two-step stamp, although there are 3 parts to it, hence the 3 colours!

I also wanted to show you some cards with the new Affectionately Yours DSP using the same Sunburst technique. They are so bright and cheery. This time the little cat is created using the Foxy Friends bundle (purchase both items together to save $$).

Farewell, feminine, Flowers, Stampin' Up!

Botanical Blooms

Dear Crafters,

Check out today’s multi-layered card. I don’t usually add so many layers, but I was very happy with how this one turned out!

I was asked to make a few Farewell cards for my workplace, and this was one of them.

Botanical Builder Framelits, Love Blossoms DSP, Farewell Handmade Card, DIY,  #stampinup

The card base is Blushing Bride with a layer of the Love Blossom Designer Series Paper.

I embossed the Sahara Sand Banner with the Softly Falling Textured Impressions Embossing Folder and layered it on a piece of Rose Red card stock which I scored a 1/4″ border around the edge.

I used the Botanical Blooms Framelits Dies for all the blooms and foliage (Blushing Bride, Rose Red, So Saffron, Mossy Meadow, Pear Pizzazz, Whisper White & Love Blossoms DSP).

The Blushing Bride Satin ribbon was tied in a bow and finishes off this stunning card (if I do say so myself lol).

Honeycomb Happiness

Dear Crafters,

Today I share a card using the stunning Love Blossoms DSP and the Honeycomb Embellishments.

Love Blossoms Honeycomb Balloon #stampinup

On the white card base, I added a narrow layer of the Love Blossoms DSP. The image from the stamp set, Honeycomb Happiness is stamped in Blushing Bride ink onto Whisper White card and layered on top of some blushing bride card. A coordinating Honeycomb Embellishment was added.

Love Blossoms Honeycomb Balloon #stampinup

I stamped the sentiment in blushing bride ink onto coordinating card stock and used a circle punch to cut it out. I added some candy dots to finish it off.

Heart of Gold

Dear Crafters,

Gold is in this year and so I have created a nice shiny gold heart of flowers!

This is a sneak peek of the Bloomin’ Love stamp set, new in the Occasions catalogue starting 5th January 2016.

Bloomin' love #stampinup

I used a Blushing Bride card base and layered some Whisper White card which was stamped with versamark ink and gold embossed using the heat tool. The bottom section is some of the Love Blossoms DSP which you would have seen in recent blog posts…. I love it!

The Blushing Bride Cotton Ribbon is beautiful and finishes this card nicely.

Check out the shine of the heart?!!!

I adore these colours together; blushing bride & rose red. The Designer Paper Series Stack, Love Blossoms is going to be so popular and you can probably see why as I share my creations with you over the coming months.
