Today is the last day to take advance of the FREE products during Sale-A-Bration, so why not purchase $90 of Stampin' Up! product and receive one of the Stamp Sets or Designer Series Paper.  Shop Online Now.

I have chosen to use the Flower & Field Designer Series Paper, surprisingly when I first saw it in the brochure I was not inspired but wow oh wow in real life the colours are so bright and cheerful with the black background they just pop.

I was inspired by the card to the left as it had strips of of the different sheets of Designer Series Paper.  

I made my card using 5 different designers in the DSP pack and cut them into 1" x 3 1/2" strips and used the Banners Pick a Punch to create a banner.

I mounted these onto a Bumblebee base card which I layered with DSP and Basic White cardstock with a random stamping of the daisies from the Garden Wishes stamp set in Bumblebee.

To finish off the card I added some Night of Navy twine in a bow, which I then added a velum heart and then fussy cut out the sentiment and a flower from the DSP pack.

Stamp Set:  Garden Wishes
Cardstock:  Bumblebee, Basic White, Flower & Field Designer Series Paper
Ink:  Bumblebee
Accessories:  Banners Pick a Punch, Heart Punch Pack, Night of Navy Twine

Social Stamping - #Oh2020! Snail Mail



It's the end of 2020, and wow it's been a year to forget and looking forward to the New Year.  This month at Social Stamping we are featuring #Oh2020!  

You may have started the hop here so welcome, or you may have come from Lisa Whitehead.

I have been sending cards after COVID19 hit Australia with a bang from March 2020 to share with those that have been in lockdown for many days, weeks and even months.

Today's card features my favourite card design for 2020 and I have been making them since November - the shaker card.  Due to all the online purchases and Australia Post delivering cards every second day, it is really Snail Mail, which has been slower than normal this year with Australia Post taking oh so long to get a card to my friends around South Australia, Australia and around the World.

I have a tutorial with step by step instructions and photographs for this quick and easy shaker card using the Clear Translucent Medium Envelopes just email me and I'll send you a copy (or join my mailing list and you will receive lots of inspiration and tutorials).

Cardstock:  Brushing Bride, Snail Mail Designer Series Paper
Accessories: Rectangle Stitched Dies, Clear Translucent Medium Envelopes, Snowflake Sequins, From my Heart Faceted Gems (retired, but they were on the Clearance Rack recently)

CASEing the Catty - #CTC298 Evergreen Forest 3D Embossing Folder


It's less than 2 weeks until Christmas Day and I am still busy making and writing in Christmas Cards, I was doing so well and made about 80 before December but I need about 120, so I love that I have added another 2 cards whilst CASEing an Embossing Folder Project.

You may have started the hop here, welcome or you may have come from Rebecca Scurr.

I have decided to CASE the card on page 35 using the Evergreen Forest 3D Embossing Folder, I received this folder from my lovely team member, Lauren Fry and it was time to get it out of the cellophane bag.

It was a quick card to CASE with a piece of Thick Whisper White cardstock ran through the Embossing Folder and then I used a sponge dauber in Pear Pizzazz to add a little green to the trees.

I then added a thin 1 1/2" strip of Gold Foil which I again ran through the Embossing Folder and then cut out a circle and gold embossed the sentiment and finally added the Gilded Gems, oh I love these.





Stamp Set:  For Unto Us
Cardstock:  Thick Whisper White, Whisper White, Gold Foil Sheet
Ink:  Versamark
Accessories:  Stitches Shapes Dies, Gold Stampin' Embossing Powder, Gilded Gems










Thanks for stopping by, now it's time to hop on over to Judy May.
