Occasional Catalogue Stampin’ Up!

One of the great features with the Stampin’ Up! products that I think many people love is how great they co-ordinate together. Card, ink, ribbons co-ordinate. Stamp sets co-ordinate with punches and dies. What about stamp sets co-ordinating with other stamp sets??? Well, this new little stamp set available in the upcoming Occasions Catalogue looks great when used on it’s own but how great is it when you combine it with one of the other stamp sets!

The small flowers are from the new stamp set ‘Petite Petals’. There are 6 little flower stamps in the set plus there is a matching punch. They are very cute on their own BUT why not layer them! Here I have added them with a flower from the ‘Flower Shop’ set. For this card I have used some of the new DSP ‘Watercolor Wonder’. Absolutely gorgeous paper. You must grab some of this. The colours and images are just beautiful. The problem is though that each side is so beautiful it seems a shame to cover up one side to use on a card! On the card I have also used the new Embossing Folder – Decorative Dots. You can grab one of these for Free during Sale-A-Bration with a $90 order. You will need that Embossing Folder too. The greeting on this card is from ‘Remembering Your Birthday’. This card was inspired by a card I saw on Pinterest.

Hope you like what you see!!!

EASY WATERCOLOUR!!!

January 16, 2014January 16, 2014 Jenny Hayward

I have been playing with some new goodies. You are going to love some of these new products coming out in the new Occasions catalogue. The dilemma was what to play with first! I did play around with some of the other stamps but thought I would show you this card first. This stamp is from the stamp set ‘Happy Watercolor’ that will be out soon. It has some great images. You know the great thing about this set is that if you find watercolouring difficult this makes it so easy. In the set are a couple of “splodges” if you like to call them that and you can just stamp over the image to create a watercolour wash. No need for detailed watercolouring although you can still do that if you choose. Too easy!!!

Doesn’t this make you think of Ice-Cream??? LOL Maybe it’s just the heat getting to me!

I have also used the new Scalloped Tag Topper Punch. You can create tags any length you like. Plus check out the Embossed Background. This is using the Decorative Dots Embossing Folder that you will be able to choose for Free during Sale-A-Bration! How cool is it!! Colours used are Pistachio Pudding and Baked Brown Sugar. I have just added a Linen Thread bow to finish it off and the greeting is from ‘Remembering Your Birthday’.

This is one of the cards you will be able to make at my ‘Upcoming Birthday Card Buffet’. All the details you can find in this post here. It is on February 8th. Places are booking out fast so if you want to join us you better book in quickly.

Thanks for visiting. Hope you are surviving the extreme weather conditions wherever you are. In Australia we are having heatwaves but I have heard of all the extreme storms and cold in the UK and the US. Stay safe!
