Welcome to Make It Monday! I have to confess, this is the last Make It Monday of 2016! as Christmas approaches I have something super special coming next week!

Make It Monday Watercolour Christmas Card using Happy Ornament from Stampin' Up!

I’ve been loving making Christmas Cards with this stamp this year, Happy Ornament is a single wood mounted stamp and its a great price too. It is only available while stocks last however as it retires on the 3rd January 2017.

How fabulous is that colour combination?! Sweet Sugarplum, Crushed Curry and Rose Red, Not traditionally Christmas-y but I’m quite enjoying a non-traditional colour kick at the moment. We put our Christmas tree up yesterday, and my colour combination this year is purples and silvers, very pretty

Simple Christmas Card using Happy Ornament from Stampin' Up! UK

I love a simple card, and today’s card is so super simple!

Simple Christmas Card using Happy Ornament from Stampin' Up! UK

I’m loving this cute stamp! This single Wood Mount stamp is a bargain at £13, and I’m loving a bit of simple stamping to use it (although I might have to try some paper-piecing with it too!)

I’ve stamped it here in Basic Black ink, and then added a touch of colour using Stampin’ Sponges.

The colour combination here is just lovely, and not overly Christmas-y either; Bermuda Bay, Rich Razzleberry, and Cherry Cobbler with a hint of Crushed Curry, just lovely

Bold Bauble Christmas Card

Bold Bauble Christmas Card using Happy Ornament from Stampin' Up! UK

I have a super simple card for you today! I love a simple card, with massive impact, and I think this card fits that brief perfectly!

Bold Bauble Christmas Card using Happy Ornament from Stampin' Up! UK

I have a massive goal for myself over the next 6 months. Every 6 Months Stampin’ Up! hold a live event somewhere around the world, and next April their live event is in Amsterdam! I would LOVE to get there, but what with saving up for the new house, and the need for some new furniture for said home, spending the £600 for a long weekend is a little tricky – Why am I telling you this? Well, I’m planning to earn my way to Amsterdam! and that is where you come in! Every time you shop with me, or promote if you are a member of my team – I earn points, and what do points mean? That’s right, points mean that I get my ticket to the Amsterdam event for FREE (I still need to pay for travel and the hotel!). So, I would be so grateful for your support, and all you have to do is shop or join!

This card come together really super quickly; Happy Ornament is a single Wood Mount stamp and so it stamps really beautifully onto a piece of Whisper White using Basic Black Archival Ink (and Yes, I am gutted about that thumb print! but I was hoping you wouldn’t notice!). It is a fairly simple shape to fussy cut, add to a background of Designer Series Paper (Pop of Pink!) and add a big and beautiful bow made from Gold Satin Ribbon!

Watercoloured Happy Ornament

Watercolour Happy Ornament from Stampin' Up! UK

Yes, The 2016 Autumn / Winter catalogue is now LIVE and you can shop to your hearts content! I am loving this catalogue, although I’ve had such a busy summer that I haven’t had chance to make much using my new goodies yet! I have however got a AWESOME Christmas themed online card class available this month… more on that Tomorrow!

I’m sure I could have found a more exciting card for my first post from this catalogue, but I have only made a couple of bits, and they are for some exciting Blog Hops coming up this month, that and I couldn’t help myself I needed to watercolour!

Watercolour Happy Ornament from Stampin' Up! UK

The ornament is one stamp, and is only available in Wood Mount. Actually it is the only Wood Mount stamp I currently own! I know, its shocking, I LOVE Wood-mounted stamps but I have such limited space that Clear mount and photopolymer are wining out at the moment.

Right, I stamped the ornament onto Watercolour Paper using Versamark before heat embossing it in White Stampin’ Emboss powder. Then it is watercolour-ed in Soft Sky, Real Red, Crushed Curry and Cucumber Crush. I added a touch of Gold Wink of Stella to the metal bit of the bauble too.

Have you checked out the new catalogue yet? You can download a copy HERE, or request a proper copy HERE!
