INK IT! STAMP IT! BLOG HOP - CASE THE HOLIDAY CATALOGUE

Welcome to the Ink It! Stamp It! Blog Hop. This month we will be sharing projects inspired by the new Stampin' Up! 2018 Holiday Catalogue. The full line up below will guide you through all the projects and we'd love to hear from you on what your favourite new products in the new Catalogue are. My card was inspired by the Christmas card on page 12 of the Holiday Catalogue - bottom right (near the delicious looking chocolate chip biscuits)! As with CASEing the idea is to Copy and Selectively Edit which is exactly what I've done. The layout is basically the same but I've used other paper from the same Festive Farmhouse Designer Series Paper and added different elements.   In place of the stitching I've used Gold Metallic Thread and my greenery is from the Petals and More Thinlits. Merry and Christmas are from the "Merry Christmas to All" Bundle - I think these are going to be very popular - I love them! The Stampin' Up! catalogues are full o...

OSAT BLOG HOP - TIC TAC TOE

Today I'm sharing my projects for the OSAT Blog Hop! This month our theme is End of Summer Tic Tac Toe and I'm featuring the gorgeous Tea Room Specialty Designer Series Paper. Of course it isn't the end of summer for us here in the Southern Hemisphere but it's easy to get into the swing of things with summer on its way!    I've chosen the first column - Ribbon, DSP and Flowers - for my projects.   It's my friend's birthday today and I've created this with her in mind!   How cute is this mini clipboard? A piece of board has been covered in the Designer Series Paper using the Multipurpose Liquid Glue and the Rich Razzleberry Velvet Ribbon has been glued under the note paper to create a loop for the pen. Flowers and a leaf from the DSP have been fussy cut and added to the note paper. "Just a Note ..." is stamped in Rich Razzleberry and is from the Better Together stamp set and the pieces of ribbo...

My card base has been embossed using the Softly Falling Embossing Folder and I've gone with a Calypso Coral colour combination including the strip of striped paper from the 6" x 6" Subtles Designer Series Paper....
