Go for Greece Blog Hop | Beautiful Day Birthday Card

Pretty Night of Navy Birthday card using the Butterfly stamp from Beautiful Day from Stampin' Up!

StampinByHannah Go for Greece Blog Hop Beautiful Day Birthday Card

I’m back blog hopping today with the fabulous ladies from Go for Greece! I have been having so much fun (and learning a LOT!) from this wonderful bunch of women…. and being able to join them for another blog hop is so exciting!

I actually made this card during a really organised few days at the start of the month… before we had attending Stampin’ Up! OnStage, and learned about some of the upcoming changes to out inks and colour families. I have a full blog post about the changes, that you can find HERE! One of the changes though is that Night of Navy will move colour family from the Regals into the Neutrals. I LOVE this idea… as I use Night of Navy as a neutral so often, and it is one of my ‘go to’ card base colours too.

I have been playing with Vellum a lot recently, I just LOVE the soft effects you can create with it. This card has a layer of Vellum over the top of the stamped butterfly. The trick with using Vellum on cards is getting it to stick! Here I have used glue does behind that big fat bow, and a small piece of Tear & Tape behind the heat embossed sentiment. I’ve used Tear & Tape because its clear, and so when you use it on Whisper White card stock it disappears! Awesome!

Today’s card is finished with a pretty double bow of the retiring Night of Navy Crinkle Seam Binding Ribbon, I am so sad to see this go I’ve used it SO much! The other ribbon is the 1/8″ Sheer Ribbon which I was excited to see is in the new Annual Catalogue! I will be sharing more about what is coming, and how you can get a catalogue from me really soon, but in the meantime do hop along to the other ladies on this fabulous blog hop… I’m sure some of them might just have a couple of sneak peaks for you!

Inspire.Create.Challenge 016 | Farewell Dapper Denim…

Fine Tip Glue Techniques with Beautiful You from Stampin' Up!

StampinByHannah Inspire.Create.Challenge 016 Farewell Dapper Denim…

This week’s Inspire.Create.Challenge is a fun farewell to the 2016-2018 In-Colours… I cannot quite believe that we’ve had these for 2 years already! I thought as we bid these colours goodbye, I would update one of the projects I made to introduce them! You can find that blog post HERE!

These cards use one of my favourite techniques; Masking with Fine-Tip Glue. It’s super easy to do, but it does take a little time as the glue has to dry (and it’s better if you leave it overnight). Here I have stamped two of the images from the Beautiful You stamp set onto Very Vanilla Notecards, using Archival Basic Black ink (but staz-on would work just as well). Then use Fine-Tip glue to ‘colour in’ the stamped images, making sure to cover the area fully.

Once the glue is dried, you can then stamp over it. I’ve used Sweet Sugarplum, Peekaboo Peach, Dapper Denim, and Emerald Envy, and one of the stamps from Touches of Texture. Where the glue is the ink won’t stick. Then, take a Stampin’ Sponge and sponge on more ink, making sure to wipe away the ink from the glue.

I can hear you asking why I haven’t used Flirty Flamingo… well, it’s one of the colours coming back as part of the Stampin’ Up! Colour Revamp! I am super excited about this, and will be sharing all of the details about that with you really soon!

Don’t forget to pop over to Inspire.Create.Challenges and see what the other members of the Design Team have created with these fabulous colours! And, if we have inspired you… why not share your makes with us over there too…

March Customer Thank You Cards featuring Eastern Beauty from Stampin’ Up!

Fun Dapper Denim Thank You Card using Eastern Palace Designer Series Paper from Stampin' Up!

StampinByHannah March Customer Thank You Cards featuring Eastern Beauty from Stampin’ Up!

Last week I pulled all the Retiring List items off my stamp shelves, along with all the card stock, Designer Series Paper and other bits and bobs that are leaving us. However, they aren’t leaving my craft room just yet! While you can still get them, I’ll continue to share them with you.

This card features some Retiring card stock and Designer Series Paper, as well as some carry over goodies too!

So, which bits are Retiring? Well, the Eastern Palace Designer Series Paper will leave us at the end of May (although it might sell out before that!), along with the Dapper Denim card stock and ink. Dapper Denim is one of the 2016-2018 In-Colours that we are saying goodbye to this year. I have a fun project for Inspire.Create.Challenge tomorrow with some of the Retiring In-Colours… don’t forget to check back for that!

The Eastern Beauty Bundle is also retiring. However, the stamps and dies are in the new annual catalogue! What this means though, is that from the 1st June 2018 you’ll loose the 10% bundle discount! So, if you love these stamps and dies, I’d grab them before the end of May.

I LOVE sending cards out to my customers each month. I always send a card, sometimes they also get gifts and goodies too! This month my March customers received this card, along with my project from yesterday… and my Code Club Code users also got some super fun embellishments!

International Blog Highlights | Swirly Bird Baby Card…

Cute little bird baby card using Swirly Bird from Stampin' Up!

StampinByHannah International Blog Highlights Swirly Bird Baby Card…

Oh my! This month’s Blog Highlight was a challenge! I’m just coming onto the phase in my life where everyone is having babies… and so making baby cards isn’t something I’ve done all that much of! I have just bought one of the baby themed stamp sets from the Annual catalogue because one of my best girl friends is due a baby any day…. but neither have arrived yet! So, I had to turn to my existing stamp collection…. and at that point I got stuck!

Pinterest to the rescue… and THIS card from the lovely Pat Tecza… and so this card was born!

I haven’t taken Swirly Bird off the shelf for ages… I’d forgotten how much I love it! The card base has been stamped in Soft Sky ink onto Soft Sky card stock for a fun tone on tone effect. Then there is a hint of something special with a couple of stripes of Washi Tape down the right hand side

The Congratulations is taken from the Home Life bundle. I’ve been using this one a LOT recently, it’s got some really handy sentiments… and don’t get my started on that font!

I completed this card with a fun double bow in Pool Party solid Bakers Twine.

James’ True Gentleman Birthday Card…

Fun birthday card using Truly Tailored and True Gentleman Designer Series Paper from Stampin' Up!

StampinByHannah James’ True Gentleman Birthday Card…

So, last week I shared THIS card for Inspire.Create.Challenges… well today I have the card that sparked that one!

This card was also inspired by a Global Design Project sketch challenge from a few weeks ago, and while I didn’t quite get to posting it for that challenge, I still wanted to share it with you.

So, the background of the Basket Weave Embossing Folder was a freebie during Sale-a-bration, but is coming back in this years Annual Catalogue! Yay! But it isn’t available right now 🙁

The True Gentleman Designer Series Paper is a fun mix of heaps of guy themed images and classic patterns, and it is perfect for guy cards. Each layer here has had it’s edges sponged with Crumb Cake ink to help to tie everything together for a fully cohesive look

The ‘You’re a Fox’ stamp coordinates with the Tailored Tag punch… but I will admit that rather than buying it, I hand cut this one! It’s a nice simple shape… and I would rather spend my £££’s on stamps!

This card is finished with a length of Corduroy Night of Navy ribbon and a trio of True Gentleman Buttons

StampinByHannah Make It Monday Step It Up with Petal Palette from Stampin’ Up!

This week’s Make It Monday should have been last week’s Facebook Live… but something came up that needed dealing with that afternoon. So, I had to postpone. I hate doing that!

Check out the video to see how this card developed….

So, the layers on this card are as follows:

Card making video tutorial fun Birthday card with Delightful Daisy from Stampin' Up!

StampinByHannah How to make a fun Birthday card using Delightful Daisy from Stampin’ Up!

This week I have shared a heap of ways to use up your Designer Series Paper before the new Annual Catalogue lands in May… and today is no different. One of my favourite packs of Designer Series Paper this past year has been the Delightful Daisy. It is a fun take on a classic floral, with a hint of watercolour. Just lovely.

This card came together in less than 15 minutes… check the video for all the details. You can find my Standard Card Measurements on THIS page.

The Happy Birthday sentiment is taken from the Picture Perfect Birthday Stamp set, which is also this month’s Stamp of the Month!

The Delightful Daisy suite features not only this wonderful Designer Series Paper but also the Daisy Delight Stamp set and coordinating Daisy Punch. Grab the Designer Series Paper and the Stamp and Punch Bundle soon before they retire.

Thoughtful Thursday | New Home Card with Home Life from Stampin’ Up!

Congratulations on your new home card using Home Life from Stampin' Up!

StampinByHannah Thoughtful Thursday New Home Card with Home Life from Stampin’ Up!

This week sees the end of my Thoughtful Thursday series (for now!) as I have something super exciting starting next Thursday with some fabulous Stampin’ Friends. Don’t worry I will still be bringing you my monthly One Little Word updates… and I’m going to incorporate some of the content into Mondays and Fridays too!

I’ve had a HEAP of friends and family move house recently, and New Home cards have been in high demand. Luckily I have the fabulous Home Life Stamp and Die bundle from Stampin’ Up! to make them really easy. Bundles are a great way to save some £££’s… as you save 10% over buying the stamps and dies separately. I shared another fabulous New Home card a few weeks ago…

The colour inspiration was taken from the Colour Theory Designer Series Paper pack. This pack of paper is a fun selection of Berry Burst, Dapper Denim, Daffodil Delight and Old Olive, and it coordinates with those fun Glitter Enamel Dots too!

Stampin’ Up! is all about the coordinating products… it’s one of the many many reasons why I LOVE it! Stamps that match dies, that coordinate with fun Designer Series Paper, which use colours that we have in inks, and card stock, and ribbons and embellishments. Stampin’ Up! make making coordinated projects super easy!

Saying that… the 2018 Retiring list will be released on Monday, and I am 99% sure that most of the current Designer Series Papers will be on it. So if you like a pack, grab it sooner rather than later!

Inspire.Create.Challenges 015 – Quick and Easy Masculine Cards!

Fun Masculine card for Inspire.Create.Challenges using True Gentleman Designer Series Paper from Stampin' Up!

StampinByHannah Inspire.Create.Challenges 015 – Quick and Easy Masculine Cards!

This week’s Inspire.Create.Challenge is a Theme… and it’s a Theme that I think a lot of us struggle with, cards for men! They are tricky to please, and they don’t want pink, or floral, or bows… and lets be honest, that’s a LOT of our crafting! However, Stampin’ Up! to the rescue again… with the True Gentleman suite!

This card was inspired by another card I have made recently (that I’ll be sharing with you very soon!). I have been really enjoying making men’s card with the True Gentleman suite, the stamps and Designer Series Paper just tie together so perfectly… don’t you LOVE it when products do that, makes crafting so easy!

The card base is in Sahara Sand, and the first layer is a sheet of Night of Navy card stock embossed using the Hexagons Embossing Folder. You can find my standard card making measurements HERE!

There are 3 different pieces of Designer Series Paper at work here too… along with a circle of DIY Designer Series Paper (stamped using the Truly Tailored stamp set). The circles are all cut using the Stitched Shapes Framelits, these dies are definitely at the top of my crafty MUST HAVE list, I use them SO often!

This card is finished with a trio of strips of Night of Navy Corduroy Ribbon.

I would LOVE to see you masculine creations, join in with us at Inspire.Create.Challenges!
