THANK YOU

Hello and welcome. Thank you for popping by to see my latest creation.

This image has an empty alt attribute; its file name is Blog%2BHop%2BHeader_Training.jpg

Thank you for joining us for our Stampin’ Up!® Demonstrator Training Program Monthly Blog Hop! We are so happy that you could join us today for this blog hop for ideas and creative inspiration. We are a group of Stampin’ Up!® Demonstrators from around the world that are taking part in training that is helping us to build a successful Stampin’ Up!® business and reach some goals we have set. We really appreciate your support.

Each month I look forward to creating thank you cards to send to my customers who have placed an order with me during that month. Some of these cards will also have a gift from me as well, if the order was at least $60 and the HOST CODE was used.

I also get to share these cards on the DEMONSTRATOR TRAINING PROGRAM BLOG HOP that I participate in.

I hope you like the cards that I have made, using the HAND-PENNED PETALS STAMP SET and the HAND-PENNED DESIGNER SERIES PAPER.

I also used the PENNED FLOWERS DIES and SCALLOPED CONTOURS DIES.

I think that before I send these cards, I will add some Genial Gems to the die cut panel. What do you think? Do they need a little zhuzhing?

There will lots of other thank you cards, made by demonstrators around the world. Check them out and get some great ideas for your own cards. I hope you enjoy hopping.

Happy stamping.

CONGRATULATIONS

Hello and welcome! Thanks for popping by to see today’s project.

After yesterday’s Fine Art Floral blog hop card, I’m back today with one more Hand-Penned project to share. From tomorrow I will start featuring a new suite of products that I will have projects ready to share with you.

To stamp the floral image, I started by stamping the outline in Tuxedo Black Memnto ink. The flowers were then stamped using the infill stamp and the new 2021-2023 In Colour Pale Papaya. The infill stamps are not designed to colur in the entire flower – there are meant to uncoloured spaces. The same was done with the leaves, using the new Soft Succulent ink. While I was stamping this image, I repeated it for the card inert and envelope. The next step was to die cut the flower for the card front.

The Soft Succulent landscape card base has a piece of Designer Series Paper adhered to it. There is . I used the stitched scallop edge die, in the Penned Flowers Dies, to create the scalloped panel for the card front. After tying a bow in a length of Soft Succulent Open Weave Ribbon I wrapped it around the scalloped panel and secured it with Tear and Tape. The panel has Stampin’ Dimensionals to lift it up off the card surface.

The die cut flower is also popped up on the panel with Dimensionals. The sentiment is stamped in Soft Succulent and cut with a rectangular die from the Beautiful Trees Dies. And, surprise, I used some Genial Gems.

The projects that I have made over the last week have focused on Pale Papaya and Soft Succulent, with Evening Evergreen used for my ANZAC Day card on the 25th April. I will definitely be using the others very soon. I love that there are coordinating gems, ribbon, ombre gift bags, Blends and markers to work along with the cardstock.

ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE

Hello and welcome! Thanks for popping by to see what my latest project is.

I have been creating with the Hand-Penned Suite over the past few days and I am loving it. The soft and subtle colours, the open drawing style and the images are so gorgeous.

I used the oval banner shape from the Hippo & Friends Dies again. This time I used it to cut out a ‘window’ to feature the Hand-Penned Designer Series Paper. Once this panel was cut, I used the new Bark 3D Embossing Folder to add texture.

The Cinnamon Cider 2020-2022 In Colour Ribbon ties into a lovely bow. The sentiment is from the Hand-Penned Stamp Set – I like the mix of fonts that so many Stampin’ Up!® stamp set sentiments have.. The Beautiful Trees Dies has a second rectangular die that I used to cut the sentiment with. It fits perfectly in the bottom of the ‘window’ frame.

Adding thin strips of Designer Series Paper is such an easy way to finish a card beautifully. And, of course, Genial Gems were needed to zhuzh it up. The bark texture is a great addition to our embossing folders.

“Anything is possible” offers a way to encourage someone to strive for their goals. Who would you want to encourage? What goals do they have?

Happy stamping.
