CASE the Designer #GDP296

Hello everyone! I am so pleased that each of you have popped by for today’s project.

Today I’m sharing my project for this week’s Global Design Project theme challenge – #GDP296. I am actually a few days earlier than I would normally be. I am trying to schedule some posts in advance because my sister is coming to visit for a few days. I am looking forward to seeing her and sharing time together (but, this means that I need to convert my crafting area into the visitor’s bedroom).

CASE = Copy And Selectively Edit

Our brief to CASE a project is that we can take what we like from the design and make it our own. It might be the stamp set – the colors, the layout, the theme, the images – whatever we like that has inspired us to make a card of yur own.

Here is the project this week that we was CASEing this week:

For my project, I have chosen to copy the general layout components – a strip of pieced elements down the left hand side, direct stamping onto the main area of the card front, a stamped sentiment and some embellishments.

I used the Elegantly Said Bunde for my GDP inspired project. Using my Stamparatus and Jet Black StazOn, I was able to stamp a strong black image of the largest stamp in the set. I used a piece of gold textured brushed metallic paper from the Gold & Rose 6″x 6″ Metallic Specialty Paper. This stamped piece of gold paper was attached to the right hand side of a Basic Black card base.

I punched three Elegant Tag pieces in the same gold specialty paper and trimmed them down to be used along the left edge of the card. The sentiment was stamped in the same way, using the Stamparatus and Jet Black StazOn, before being trimmed down and popped up on Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added some gold Metallic Pearls to the card front. Finally, I stamped the same large filigree styled image on the card insert and envelope.

I think will make a very elegant wedding or anniversary card. What do you think?

So, here are the main products I used in this card. I haven’t used the Rose Gold Specialty Paper yet but it does look gorgeous. I’m sure that I will have a project to share with you soon that uses it.

Do you have someone that you would give this card to? Wedding or anniversary?

Happy stampin.

CREATING WITH BRIGHT COLOURS

Hello to each of you who are popping by. Thanks for joining me.

Today’s project is all about the Brights Colour Family. I used all of them to stamp my own ‘Designer Series Paper’.

I used the In Symmetry Stamp Set and coordinating punch for this project. I started by stamping the larger images before going back with smaller images to fill in the spaces.

I cut the stamped Basic White cardstock to create the layer for the card front. The sentiment was stamped in Mango Melody and cut using one of the Tasteful Labels Dies. The leaves that are tucked under the sentiment piece were cut using the Symmetrical Stems Punch.

The sentiment and leaves were popped up on the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. The black bow was tied using some of the Baker’s Twine Essentials Pack. To finish the card front, I added three Matt Black Dots. I also stamped the largest image on the card insert and envelope.

I have been enjoying adding an image of some of the products used for each project in recent posts. Let me know if you like seeing them – are they helpful?

So, who do you need to send a thank you card to? Would they like a bold and bright card like this one?

I hope you try using some of your different stamp sets to create your own DSP.

Happy stamping.

CRITTERS

Hello to each of you who have popped by today to see my latest project. I cannot thank you enough for taking the time and interest; it is truly appreciated.

Today’s project has been created for this week’s Freshly Brewed Project blog hop. Unfortunately, I missed the past two but am very pleased to be making up for lost time.

This week’s theme is CRITTERS and the brief highlighted that there are many critters in the new catalogue … fluffy, cute, artistic, feathers, fins and so much more. Our task was to create a project featuring one of the many critters we can choose from.

My chosen critter is cute, artistic and has an outer shell.

As you can see, I have chosen to use the totally cute Turtle Friends Bundle for this challenge. So at first sight, you can see the tiered turtles and blocks of colour below. Let me show you how I put all of this together.

I was inspired by Donna Gray’s Facebook Live this morning. She used the new Watercolour Shapes Stamps for her projects. I do not have this set yet but still wanted to try to achieve something similar. I used one of my G acrylic blocks to ink and stamp each of the layers that you can see. When this was dry I then cut the paper into 1/2″ strips and alternated and adhered them on the card front layer.

I stamped two of the largest turtle, using Memento ink, onto some soon to retire Oh So Ombre 6″x 6″ DSP and used Granny Apple Green ink to add the turtleshell elements. For the turtle stamped onto Basic White as a reversed image, I used my Stamparatus and Silicon Mat to achieve this image. The sentiment was then stamped using Granny Apple Green ink. The party hat was stamped using Granny Apple Green and coloured using Stampin’ Write Markers™ in Granny Apple Green and Mango Melody.

The turtles were overlapped, with feet alternating, and adhered. The turtle trio was popped up onto the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals – as was the party hat. Some Granny Apple Green grass was also stamped onto the card front.

The birthday greeting was stamped in Bermuda Bay and trimmed back to pop up over the multiple colour strips along the base. Then I used the Dark Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blend to colour some Rhinestone Basic Jewels for the card front.

As I almost always mention, the final step involved me adding an image to the card insert and envelope. For this project, the final step was to stamp one of the smaller turtle images.

And, of course, I needed to add those little grass elements to ground the turtles. This image really shows how amazing inking a block and stamping can look. I added some Clear Wink of Stella onto each of the trurtles scales and also flicked it across the card front. Very blingy turtles indeed!

It was great to use so many new and carry over products for a project. I think this is one of greatest benefits of using Stampin’ Up!® products – the incredible coordination of colours and designs. If you’re not yet familiar with all of this, and would like have your own latest catalogue, please contact me. (You need to live in Australia for me to be able to offer you the latest catalogue).

Finally, who would you send a totally cute turtle birthday card to?

Now, make sure that check out the other CRITTER creations from the Freshly Brewed Project team. (oops – I was a bit late adding this).

Happy stamping.
