SAMPLER CARDS

Recently, I posted that I had been to a Paper Angels paper crafting day and it was an amazing day.

One of the projects featured the BY THE DOCK BUNDLE in a decor sampler.

I had to head home before our last make and take session so I took the project pieces home to finish later.

I couldn’t think of anyone I could gift the sampler to but thought I could make some masculine sampler cards instead.

A few products from other suites and bundles were also used. There will be a product list under each image.

I hope you like these cards. Let me know what you think.

This was a long post today, but I hope you like the idea of sampler cards.

Thanks for popping by … happy stamping.

HEADING TO MAUI?

I celebrated my 7th year as a Stampin’ Up!® Demonstrator two days ago – several years as a hobby demonstrator and the last couple evolving into a business demonstrator.

With this comes goal setting and challenges.

I have achieved my goal to attend On Stage Live events internationally and am still working toward others, including progressing to Silver Elite and earning an Incentive Trip.

One way that I thought I could encourage myself to continue to work toward these goals was to create a swap that I could take on an incentive trip.

With the 2020 Incentive Trip being Maui, I knew that the TROPICAL OASIS SUITE would be perfect.

However, it wasn’t until I saw a recent Facebook Live from Emma Goddard that I knew what I could create … THANK YOU EMMA FOR YOUR INSPIRATION!

She, so cleverly, created a lid for the bag from the ALL DRESSED UP DIES using the STITCHED NESTED LABELS DIES to create a gift box.

While I was watching Emma’s feed, I could see a tropical beach bag …

Oops, my bag lid looks a bit wonky in this photo.

Time for a close up –

The textures of the 3D embossing folder, trinkets and burlap are perfect for a beach bag!

So, no Maui beach bags to swap this year.

Time to move onto Caribbean inspired creations and working hard to qualify!

I used products from four different bundles/suites for this project – that is how amazing Stampin’ Up! coordination is!

Below, you will find a montage of the products I used for this project.

Thanks for popping by … happy stamping.

These are the products I used to create this project – unfortunately, there is no product number for EMMA GODDARD!

BOTANICAL GIFT BOX

I love being inspired by Sam Hammond Donald’s amazing Pootles’ creations.

This week, she shared on Facebook Live, an upcoming project and an insight into her design process … absolutely in awe!

I have focused on the BOTANICAL PRINTS PRODUCT MEDLEY this week and I hope that I have done justice to her 4″ x 2″ gift box.

It is great that we can use our Stampin’ Blends to colour ribbons and embellishments. This allows us to have even more coordination opportunities.

Terracotta Tile and Pretty Peacock are two of my favourite colours – I hope they will be part of a colour revamp in the future.

Now I need to find something to pop into the box to make this a gift for someone special.

Thanks for popping by … happy stamping.

These are the products I used to make this gift box.
