January 2021 Creative Stampers Tutorial Blog Hop

January 2021 Creative Stampers Tutorial Blog Hop 

Hey there!  It is time for another Creative Stampers Tutorial Blog Hop!  This tutorial features project created by 11 amazing Stampin'UP! demonstrators from around the world featuring free products that can be earned during Sale-a-Bration!

Each tutorial includes full colour photos, measurements and a product list.

Today, each of us will be sharing a second project using the same products we used to create the project in the tutorial.

You can see a sneak peek of all 11 projects in the picture above.  Here is a sneak peek of project included in the tutorial!  

I can't share the tutorial project, but I can share a second project featuring the Corner Bouquet stampset.

In my second project, I used the Flower and Field Designer Series Paper (which can be earned by spending $60).  I love this pattern and the colours are vibrant, bight and cheery. 

The main feature of my card is the Corner Bouquet stampset.  It can be used in many ways, today I decided to colour the stamp using Stampin' Write Markers.  Some tips I have when colouring your stamp:

• first colour with the colour used on the largest part of the stamp
• colour using the lightest colour last
• 'hough' on the stamp before stamping to help moisten the stamp
• stamp the first time on a scrap of paper, don't clean your stamp,  then colour it again and stamp on your card, it is much brighter and the image is full

The colours I used are Granny Apple Green, Poppy Parade and Bumblebee.

So how do you get your hands on the free tutorial bundle?

Thank you International Blog Highlight

 Hello stampers,

Thank you for stopping by today.  I am sharing a card I have made using some free items I have earned and that you can earn too!  Starting January 5th, for every $60 you spend you can earn a free item.  Free is good, right!

I am participating in Kylie Bertucci's International Blog Highlight challenge with this card!  The theme is 'thank you'.  So I have created a thank you card to join the fun.  We can all use more Thank you cards in our stash - there are so many people we can be thanking during the pandemic and a handmade card is a beautiful way to do it.  

Here is my card!   Can you spot the free items?

If you guessed the Designer Series Paper and the stampset, you guessed right!  LOL

I love this paper and I have been using it a ton!  It is called Flower and Field Designer Series Paper and it has many pretty colours in the patterns.  This helps create many colour combinations using this as your starting point. 

The stampset is called Corner Bouquet.  There are so many ways to use this stampset, today I have coloured it using my Stampin' Write Markers.

If you like my card, I would love to have your vote!  Please stop by Kylie's blog and place your vote.  You can do that by clicking the button below.  ;)  thank you!

Happy Stampin'

March Blogging Friends Blog Hop!

Hey there stampers,

Can you believe it is March already?  According to our little season predictors (here in Ontario, we have Wiarton Willie) spring is almost here!  I am very done with winter, so I really hope he is right.

A new month also means a new blog hop with my blogging friends!  I love our hops!  This months hop is featuring Sale-a-bration items.  I created two cards for the hop using my top 2 favourite stamp sets in the Sale-a-bration catalogue.  Can you guess which two they are?.......

Yep.  The first is the Hey Chick stampset.  I mean common - living in farm country or not this one is super cute!  All of these images are 'da bomb' as my kids would say, but what really caught my attention was the 'hey, chick!' sentiment lol.  Makes me giggle every time.

I kept my card simple, focusing on the image, the greeting and the colouring of the chick  as the main focus. I used our new stampin'up! coloured pencils and blended the colours using my Aqua painter.

My second card features my other favourite stampset.  It is the fun lovin' ice cream/ taco/hot dog truck.  The possibilities are endless with this set!  I went with some bright, bold and fun colours.  Again, I coloured the image with the stampin'up! pencils and Aqua painter.  

Sale-a-bration ends march 31st so if you would like to add these free stamp sets to your collection, head on over to my Canadian on-line store.  

Be sure to hop on through all of the bogs to see their fabulous creations.  Up next is Rick Adkins. You can click on the picture below or follow the links on the list at the bottom of the post.  

Happy Stampin'

Spring Birthday with Global Design Project!

Hey there,

I have a birthday card to share with you today.  I made it using CASE the Designer challenge over at Global Design Project.  They have a really fun card from Michelle Last to CASE.  Here is her adorable card!

 

 Super cute, eh?  The colours, the darling little butterfly and did you notice the shaker? I decided to CASE the layout.  But also tried for super cute!  :)  I hope you can see the resemblance...

I started with the DSP and picked the other colours based on it.  I love lots of layers on a card so layered some yellow cardstock between the cardbase and the DSP.   I love using the tag topper punch to create a tag for the front of a card - it can be used as a bookmark afterwards.   

LOVE this little greeting.  It is from the Sale-a-bration stampset Hello.

Be sure to stop on over to Global Design Project to see all of the great creations CASEing Michelle's card.

Happy Stampin'
