CI#83 COLOUR CHALLENGE

A few weeks ago, I made a card for the Colour INKspiration CI#81 using these colours.

I was so pleased to be named the winner and asked to be a guest designer.

This is the colour scheme for CI#83.

At first, I found this colour palette challenging but decided to use the leaves in the image as my inspiration.

So, the LOVE OF LEAVES BUNDLE was called into action.

I love the dies in this bundle and the stitched features they give.

I enjoy layering elements on a card … and, a bit of bling. Thank goodness for WINK OF STELLA and ENAMEL DOTS.

The sentiment ‘I’M SO GLAD YOU’RE IN MY LIFE’ is ideal for so many situations.

Let me know what you think of this card.

Thanks for popping by … happy stamping.

These are the products I used to make this card. If you live in Australia, you can order any of them through me.

AUTUMN COLOURS

There aren’t too many areas in Brisbane where I can see all the gorgeous Autumnal trees that I have seen in other parts of the world.

The LOVE OF LEAVES STAMP SET and coordinating STITCHED LEAVES DIES made it easy for me to see those leaves today.

Oops, the HELLO piece is not straight – I’ll be redoing that!

I added a few of the Mango Melody ARTISTRY BLOOMS SEQUINS for a touch of bling.

The sentiment I stamped, inside the card, is going to be used a lot – it’s a lovely thought to send to someone special you haven’t seen in a while.

These are the two new products used in this project:

LOVE OF LEAVES PHOTOPOLYMER STAMP SET (ENGLISH)

LOVE OF LEAVES STAMP SET 153452
STITCHED LEAVES DIES
STITCHED LEAVES DIES 153567

These new products are available from August 4th. And, they can be ordered as a bundle and you pay 10% less. The bundle number is 155195.

What do you think? Who would you send this card to?

Thanks for popping by … happy stamping.

IT’S BEEN A BUSY, BUSY WEEK!

Well, you may have noticed that I haven’t been around for about a week. I recently organised and photographed all of my retired products and uploaded them to a retired SU product Facebook group – there were 260 items in my album.

Then it took most of that time to manage who was buying and paying and then posting everything out to their new craft rooms.

These were all the satchels and envelopes that made up my first post office run. The bag at the front of the trolley is filled with more prepaid satchels.

There were four more post office visits during the week.

Thursday was spent crafting with Helen and Judy – it has been lovely to have a small, fortnightly card class to plan for.

Friday and today, were the first days that I have spent making new projects since my last post.

This first card was created for the latest Colour INKspiration challenge and I featured it on my recent Facebook Live.

THE RIGHT TRIANGLE bundle is so versatile. The stamp designs are a lovely combination of floral, leaf and geometric designs. And, the variety of triangles and sizes of the dies can be used for so many different projects.

The sentiment is from the LOVE OF LEAVES STAMP SET.

The ribbon was coloured with the DARK JUST JADE STAMPIN’ BLEND.

I’m looking forward to playing with the triangles more – I feel some quilting coming on.

Thanks for popping by … happy stamping.

These are the products I used to make this card. If you live in Australia, you can order any of them through me.

There some products, used for this card, that are in the soon to be released August through December Mini Catalogue that are not yet available for this picture list – BANNERS PICK A PUNCH and LOVE OF LEAVES STAMP SET.
