Trucking Along | Video Tutorial

Hello! I hope you are having a lovely Sunday evening… I just thought that I would pop a post into the blog this evening as I have shared a video over on my YouTube, but haven’t been sharing videos here recently, and so you might have missed it.

This card uses the new Trucking Along stamp set which is part of the July Online Exclusives release. There are some wonderful stamp sets this time around, but this one is my favourite!

Inspire.Create.Challenge #145 | Cute Childs Birthday card using Zany Zoo

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah for this week’s Inspire.Create.Challenge. This time, Jo has challenged us to make a card for a baby or child. Now, I have two very small children (4 and 2) and so this should have been easy… except that I don’t really make cards for my kids, so the only stamp set that I have that is child-like is Zany Zoo.

Kept it fairly simple, kids don’t want the fuss of an overly layered card. However, I have got a video… you can check that out below. Please do pop over to my YouTube though and subscribe as I do post content over there that doesn’t always find its way here!

You can find the shopping list for this project HERE… and while I’m thinking about it, this Designer Series Paper is 15% off until the end of June!

How to make Cute Flower Card using Share a Milkshake from Stampin’ Up!

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah today for a super fun card idea! I saw something similar to this on Pinterest a few weeks ago, and just had to have a bit of a play. The Share a Milkshake stamp set is one of my favs from the January to April catalogue, but I haven’t had chance to use it for a few weeks, and so I wanted to do something a little bit different with it.

I’ve paired the Share a Milkshake die cut (can you spot it… I cannot believe that really its an ice cream cone!) with the Petal Park stamp and punch bundle.

The background of this card is super simple, but an effect I just LOVE and think it adds something to an otherwise fairly simple card design.

Notecards and Envelope box with Petal Park from Stampin’ Up!

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah… yes, I have a video! I know, I am just as excited as you are! Actually, I’d be more excited if I had managed to remember to get this video edited and blog post written for Saturday when I had intended to! But, hey, we move.

So, this is a project I shared with the Team at a Crafty Weekend Retreat back in February. We had SUCH a great time. We are already planning for our next event which is at the end of September. We meet up at a hotel, and spend the weekend crafting, chatting, laughing, and eating (cake mostly!), next time we are meeting just outside of Birmingham, and you can join us! While I’m waffling, now is a great time to join… we are currently in side the Pre-Order period for the next Annual Catalogue and at the start of a quarter so you’d not have to worry about minimums until October! You can find out more information on my Join My Team page, or check out my Joining FAQ’s

Anyway, back to today’s project. The video shares the box, and you can find the notecards a little further down this post.

Measurements;

  • Thick Basic White; 2 pieces that measure 18.5 x 12.5 cm ( 7 ¼ x 5”) – Score at 2.5 cm (1″) on 3 sides

Quick and Easy Fun Rainbow Card Idea…

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah! Yesterday was Mother’s Day here in the UK and so I made 2 fun cards for my mum and mother-in-law (yes, they always get the same card!). I loved the card so much, and thought it would make a great birthday card idea… so here it is!

The rainbow background was super easy to put together, with simple 1.5cm strips of card stock, adhered to a piece of Basic White, and then die cut using the largest circle from Stylish Shapes. I would recommend using a wet glue (like Tombow) to attach these, you want to make sure the full back of the piece of covered.

‘MUM’ is die cut from the fabulous Alphabet a la Mode dies. I LOVE this die set SO much! I did add some Adhesive Sheet to the back of the card stock before I die cut the letters to make attaching them to the card easier.


There are a fair few products on this card, so I thought I would list them to make it a little easier;

  • Sentiment from Best Family Ever! (heat embossed in white onto Basic Black)
  • Floral stamp from Hand Penned Petals (stamped in Memento)
  • Background embossed using the dots embossing folder from the Basics 3D Embossing Folders
  • Bling added using Iridescent Rhinestone Basic Jewels

Fun card idea using Irresistible Blooms from Stampin’ Up!

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah for another fun card and a video tutorial… I know, twice in a week!

This card uses the Irresistible Blooms suite, which is a While Stocks Last set of products that form part of the Stampin’ Up! Online Exclusives collection. If you haven’t checked them out yet, I would highly recommend popping over to the Online Store for a look… these products are gorgeous!

This card uses Flirty Flamingo, Daffodil Delight, Soft Seafoam, Blackberry Bliss and Bermuda Bay… slightly inspired by the colours in the papers, but then I added some colours too!

Quick and Easy Christmas Card using Kindest Gnomes from Stampin’ Up!

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah for a quick and easy Christmas card idea. Sunday night is usually Facebook Live night… but this week I chose to prioritise spending an evening with my husband (it doesn’t happen often) and so I pre-recorded this weeks video instead.

This week I thought we could have a play with the Gnome dies from the Kindest Gnomes bundle. These cute a very cute ‘no stamp required’ Gnome. Here I’ve used Night of Navy and Basic White card stock along with a scrap of the Story Book Gnomes Designer Series Paper.

I just cannot get enough of the Stylish Shapes dies… the stitched edge detail one both the inner and outer edges just makes me happy. These basically have a permanent spot out on my desk… I hardly ever actually put them away, and I feel like I use them on just about every card!

Seriously, I have some seriously talented friends! I cannot wait for you to see.

My absolute favourite product at the moment is the Hive 3D embossing folder, and so I couldn’t not use it on this card!
