Let Your Colours Shine for the Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop where out theme is ‘Let Your Colours Shine’ – great topic. After a lot of thought I decided to take it back to basics and find an image I like to act as inspiration for a colour combo. I found a picture of a beautiful bridesmaid’s bouquet that I really liked, the colours are so soft and delicate.

The Ink & Inspirations blog hop theme this month is Let Your Colour Sparkle and I have used the Garden Birdhouses stamp set to make a card

Colours used in this project are:

Petal Pink card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – Rounded upper left corner

The branch from the Garden Birdhouse stamp set was added at the top with Mint Macaron ink. I stamped the hanger from the tree in Balmy Blue ink and added the sweet birdhouse in Misty Moonlight ink.

I used the Misty Moonlight Marker from the 2021-2023 In Color Markers pack to colour in parts of the birdhouse. Doesn’t it look sweet.

Using Versamark ink I stamped the sentiment from the Art Gallery stamp set onto the Misty Moonlight strip, covered it with White Embossing Powder and heat set it with the Heat Tool. I flagged the end with scissors.

Using the Peach Dies and the Mini Cut & Emboss Machine I cut some tiny flowers from the scrap Petal Pink card and added them to the tree with Mini Glue Dots.

I glued the stamped panel to the Misty Moonlight layer and then to the Petal Pink card base using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. The sentiment was then added using the same glue.

Pretty Painted Poppies for the Ink. Stamp. Share Blog Hop

Thank you for joining me for the June Ink, Stamp. Share Blog Hop where we are CASing the catalogue, always fun. I have chosen to pretty painted poppies card on page 25 of the Annual Catalogue. I love the poppies in these soft colours with the pop of green, so pretty.

To recreate the pretty painted poppies card, you will need:

Thick Basic White card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”

Scrap Pale Papaya & Basic White

I used the 2021 – 2023 In colour paper pack as I don’t have the pack used in the catalogue sample but I think the Soft Succulent piece works well. I added the strip of dsp to the Thick Basic White card base

The Basic White panel was run through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine with the Macrame Embossing Folder. This folder is rapidly becoming my current favourite. I added the embossed layer to the card front with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

I stamped the flowers and leaves in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto scrap Basic White card and die cut them out using the Painted Labels dies. I used Soft Succulent, Flirty Flamingo and Pale Papaya Blends Markers to colour in the images.

The sentiment from the Peaceful Moments stamp set was stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto scrap Pale Papaya card and die cut using the smaller label from the Painted Label dies. I felt the larger label used on the original card was too big. The label was added to the card front with the liquid glue.

The flowers and leaves were then added with liquid glue or Dimensionals around the label.

To complete the card, I added a trio of Genial Gems. Such a pretty card. I hope you like my take on the original.

A beautiful card for the Kylie Bertucci Demo Training Blog Hop featuring the stunning Friends are like Seashells stamp set

Seashell card for the Kylie Bertucci Demo Training Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Kylie Bertucci Training Blog Hop. Today I am sharing one of the seashell cards I made for team members who had reached sales or recruiting targets in May.

Colours used in this card are:

To recreate the seashell card, you will need:

Pale Papaya card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Calypso Coral card – 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Basic White card – 5¼” by 3½”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” for the inside
Scrap Basic White card

I ran the smaller panel of Basic White through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine with the Stitched With Whimsey Dies. I used the largest square. I moved the die down the card, overlapping the original and ran it through again. I knew I would be covering the centre area. I added this panel to the Calypso Coral layer with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. Using the same glue, I added the panel to the Pale Papaya card base.

I chose to use the 2 rectangular images and the square image and began by stamping the largest image in Soft Sea Foam. I stamped randomly all over the smallest Basic White panel.

I added the thinner rectangle in Polished Pink ink and finished with the square stamped in Poppy Parade ink. I deliberately over-lapped the images and colors. Don’t they work well together. The stamped panel was added to the Basic Black layer with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I wrapped a length of Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon around the layer, securing it on the back with Sellotape and then glued it to the Polished Pink panel.

Colours used in this project are:

 

To recreate the bleached daisies card, you will need;

Evening Evergreen card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – Rounded upper left corner
So Saffron card – 5¼” by 3⅝” – Rounded upper left corner
Soft Succulent card – 5⅛” by 3½” – Rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – Rounded upper left corner
Scrap Basic White

I inked the stamp in Soft Succulent ink and stamped it down, I repeated this step until the image was dark enough. The soft succulent panel was left in position on the Stamparatus base.

When the bleach was dry, I inked up the stamp again with the Soft Succulent ink and stamped again over the top of the flowers to give the image more definition.

I glued the stamped panel to the So Saffron panel with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I wrapped a length of the gorgeous Gold Shimmer Ribbon around the layer, securing it on the back with Sellotape. The panel was added to the Evening Evergreen card base using the same liquid glue.

The sentiment from the Elegantly Said stamp set was stamped on scrap Basic White card in Evening Evergreen ink. I punched the sentiment out using the Tailored Tag Punch. The white tag looked so bright against the stamped image so I inked up the Daisy Garden stamp in Soft Succulent ink, stamped it off on scrap paper and stamped it over the sentiment. Much better. The sentiment was added to the card front on Dimensionals.

Box of Pansies for the Share It Sunday Blog Hop

Hello and thank you for joining me for the Share It Sunday Blog Hop where we are sharing something we have been working on. I am sharing the sweet box of pansies I have made for my Mum’s birthday tomorrow. I used a Youtube video by Sally Stampers as my inspiration

Colours used in this project are:

 

To recreate the box of pansies, you will need:

Early Espresso card – 7” by 3” – scored on the long side at 1” and 3”
Early Espresso card – 7” by 4” – scored on the long side at 4” and 6”
Early Espresso card – 5” by ½” x 2 – scored at either end at ½”
Basic White 3 ½” by 3 ½”
Evening Evergreen card – ⅛” by 3” strips – about 10
In Good Taste dsp – 4” by 2”
In Good Taste dsp – 2” by 2”
In Good Taste dsp – 4” by 4”
Pansy Petals dsp – the sheet of leaves
Scrap Basic White

Placing the short end of the larger piece of Early Espresso card at the top of the Trimmer, score lines nearest the top. I cut at 2” down to the 2nd score line. This will leave a 4” by 4” piece which will be the back panel of the box and a side piece measuring 3” with a score line in the middle.

Fold and burnish the score lines on both the large Early Espresso panels. Adhere the panels together using the 1” tabs using a strong glue, I used Tear and Tape. This forms the box.

Fold and burnish the ½” tabs on the tin strip of Early Espresso card and attach these inside the box. I used Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive to do this so that I could manoeuvre them into position.

I stamped a section of pansies, 3 large and 14 small onto scrap Basic White card. The colour combinations I used were.

1st generation Polished Pink outline, 2nd generation Polished Pink solid image and Merry Merlot for the bearded part. 1st generation Fresh Freesia outline, 2nd generation Fresh Freesia solid image and Gorgeous Grape for the bearded part.

1st generation Bermuda Bay outline, 2nd generation Bermuda Bay solid image and Misty Moonlight for the bearded part.

The centres were stamped in Bumblebee ink. The flowers were then die cut using the Pansy Dies. The leaves were die cut from the Pansy Petals dsp.

Using liquid glue, I added the 3 large pansies to the back panel of the box making sure not to place them to high as I wanted the card to fit into a standard C6 envelope. I added some of the smaller flowers to the front panel using the same glue.

I added the ⅛” strips of Evening Evergreen card to the other small pansies and added them at different heights to the inside panels, snipping off the excess. I added the leaves with a dot of liquid glue. Taking care that the card when folded down will still fit within the envelope.

I stamped a pink pansy onto the square panel of Basic White card and added it to the back of the back panel which will give us a place to write.
