Masculine birthday – Independent Stampin Up!® Demonstrator, Victoria, Australia

Welcome to the Colour Creations Instahop. You can follow us on Instagram starting @craftwithkate. Each week we will showcase the Stampin’ Up! colours in alphabetical order.

Week 17 – Crumb Cake

This handmade slimline card features the Party Alphabet dies and some of the Metallic Textures Rub-Ons.

I love using the colour combination of Crumb Cake with the bold Secret Sea. Those Metallic Rub-Ons are so easy to use by gently rubbing with your finger and they are super shiny.

The letters are cut twice in both colours and offset to mimic a shadow. I repeated the same process when stamping the sentiment [Layered Thoughts] on the inside. The Alphabet A La Mode dies were used to create the milestone birthday, and these are placed on the pop-up arch feature.

The mechanism is just a narrow strip of cardstock scored at 2cm intervals to create a box shape, then adhered into the centre scoreline of the card. The arches are then adhered to the mechanism.

This card fits into a DL business sized envelope.

Thanks for dropping by. I hope you join me next Wednesday for Crushed Curry inspiration.

Masculine Soccer card

12 October, 202211 October, 2022 craftwithkate

Each week some of the Art With Heart team are joining the Colour Creations Blog Hop to bring you creative inspiration showcasing our range of 50+ gorgeous Stampin’ Up! colours in alphabetical order.

Week 24 – Granny Apple Green

When it was time to create with Granny Apple Green, the colour reminds me of freshly cut grass.
I recently purchased the Beautiful Shapes dies which includes this tiny hexagon, and it reminded me of a soccer ball, perfect for my masculine card!!

The hardest part in creating this card, was cranking the cardstock/die through the machine multiple times until I had enough hexagons to create my soccer ball pattern. These were added with Stampin’ Seal to a piece of Granny Apple Green cardstock. Once they were all adhered with a small gap between them, I cut it down to size to fit onto the Basic Black layer which was glued to the card base.

Although the twine is Parakeet Party, it works well on this card. The sentiment from Charming Sentiments stamp set is stamped and cut out with the coordinating dies and adhered with Mini Dimensionals.

Masculine Offset Gatefold card

Week 7 – Basic Gray

Tonight we showcase Basic Gray, a colour I don’t use a lot of, but in actual fact goes well with most colours!

I have made a gatefold card, but scored in different positions so one side is shorter than the other. The Brewed for You Bundle, (Brewed for You stamp set and coordinating Brewed dies) are awesome and I know I will get loads of use from them.

Brewed for You Fun Fold card by Kate Morgan, Stampin Up Australia 2022

The 2022-2024 In Color Designer Series Paper was used to decorate the front panels. The sentiment and beer glass are stamped in Basic Gray ink and Crushed Curry ink for the beer! I placed three Iridescent Rhinestone Jewels on the feature panel.

On the inside is some more stamping on a Basic White insert.
