Make It Monday | Share What You Love!

Make It Monday with the Stampin' Up! Share What You love Suite

StampinByHannah Make It Monday | Share What You Love!

This week is a special one! We are fast approaching the launch of the Stampin’ Up! 2018 Annual Catalogue, and to celebrate Stampin’ Up! are releasing 4 fabulous product bundles… more on what is in the bundles tomorrow (when they launch) but today I thought I would re-work one of the projects I made for Stampin’ Up! OnStage…. using the new Love What You Do Stamp Set and Share What You Love Designer Series Paper.

I had loads of fun making this card… which features one of my favourite techniques; watercolour wash backgrounds!

The Love What You Do stamp set features some lovely sentiments with 2 great fonts. I am such a font girl… and this one really sings to me! I was SO lucky to get to work with this stamp set for the Display Boards at Stampin’ Up! OnStage in early April… this was my inspiration for today’s card…

I’m sure you can see how I’ve got from one to another…

The Love What You Do Stamp set is available from tomorrow as part of the fabulous Share What You Do Early Release Bundles… check back tomorrow for all the details!

Make It Monday | Quick and Easy OnStage Swaps!

Make It Monday Video Tutorial Using the Envelope punch board

StampinByHannah Make It Monday Quick and Easy OnStage Swaps!

On Saturday I shared all the fabulous swaps that I received at Stampin’ Up! OnStage last weekend. Today I thought I would share the project I swapped… as well as the gift I sent my wonderful March customers!

These are super duper easy to pop together. Can you believe I made 48 of these in just 1 hour and 40 minutes! Partly because I used Wood Textures Designer Series Paper which comes in 6 x 6″… the exact right size for these cute envelopes! and partly because I kept things simple with punches and basic stamping!

This fun project uses the Envelope Punch Board. I LOVE this tool so much, it’s just SO handy! I use it all the time for custom sized envelopes for special occasion cards, as well as being super handy for a quick thinking of you type gift. It’s so easy to use too… as you can see in the video tutorial!

Measurements:

Designer Series Paper: 6 x 6″ (15.2 x 15.2 cm)

Punch and score on each side at 3″ using the Envelope Punch Board

I was on so much of a roll with these that I kept going once I had finished my swaps, switching to the fun Colour Theory Designer Series Paper, to make my March Customer thank you gifts! I continued to use the same stamp set, Hedgehugs, but changed the colours to the retiring Dapper Denim colour instead!

I’ll be sharing more the Stampin’ Up! Colour Revamp very soon!

How to make a classic Floral Wedding Congratulations card using Petal Palette from Stampin' Up!

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! But, it does mean that my next Facebook Live is the start of my new Facebook Live series… and actually I think this project leads nicely into that too…

This is another one of those cards where I have heaps of fun playing with layers! However, it all coordinates beautifully thanks to Stampin’ Up! and the Petal Passion suite. As usual this suite of products all coordinates together, with coordinating Stamps, Dies, Designer Series Paper, Ribbons and more…

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

So, the layers on this card are as follows:

Basic Black card base
Strip of Petal Passion Designer Series Paper
Heat Embossed stamping in Silver
Stamping
Floral die cut from Petals and More…
Stamped and die cut flowers using Petal Palette
Trio of Silver Metallic Enamel Dots

So, I hope you enjoyed today’s video… and don’t forget to Like my Facebook Page to be notified about my next Facebook Live!

Make It Monday | Designer Series Paper Birthday Card

Make It Monday Video Tutorial How to make a fun birthday card using Picture Perfect Party Designer Series Paper from Stampin' Up!

StampinByHannah Make It Monday Designer Series Paper Birthday Card

This weeks Make It Monday video tutorial is the perfect card to make with the left overs from your April Stamp of the Month Club kit! This month’s kit features a heap of goodies from the Picture Perfect Birthday suite, and is perfect for making Birthday cards for all your friends and family! (yes, guys included!)

I have made this style of card before, and its definately not a new idea… but it is PERFECT for using up those scraps of Designer Series Paper. This is the time of year I go into over drive mode using Designer Series Paper, with Stampin’ Up! OnStage just around the corner, and a new catalogue on the way. It’s time to clear those paper shelves in preparation for some fabulous new designs that are coming really soon!

This card (believe it or not) doesn’t rely heavily on set measurements… I would suggest measuring your scraps and going from there. But here are the measurements I have used:

Measurements:

Check out my new Standard Card Measurements Page for my card base measurements!

Picture Perfect Party Designer Series Paper;

14.3 x 10 cm
6 x 9.5 cm
7.5 x 4.5 cm

Pool Party Card stock;

6.5 x 10 cm
8 x 5 cm
4.5 x 6 cm

Whisper White Card Stock;

5.5 x 4 cm

The sentiment is taken from the coordinating Picture Perfect Birthday Stamp Set, and the finishing touch is a bow in Pool Party Shimmer Ribbon.

What’s your go to Card Style for Birthday cards?

Make It Monday | Picture Perfect Birthday and Facebook Live…

Quick and fun Birthday card with a difference using Picture Perfect Birthday from Stampin' Up!

StampinByHannah Make It Monday Picture Perfect Birthday and Facebook Live…

This week’s Make It Monday is a little late, but I hope that you enjoy it anyway. This past week has been crazy busy, and I just didn’t get chance to film over the weekend as it was James’ birthday yesterday. So, to make up for it, I thought I would do a short Facebook Live and a special project instead.

I had heaps of fun making this card on Facebook Live earlier… Don’t worry if you missed it, I have the re-run below. I am LOVING Facebook Live, and you don’t have long to wait before my next one. April’s Facebook Live Online Card Class is on the 3rd April at 2PM, Like my Facebook Page and RSVP to the event to get reminders, and never miss a Live again!

This fun card features both the Picture Perfect Birthday stamp set and the Picture Perfect Party Designer Series Paper… both of which feature in April’s Stamp of the Month Club. More coming about that at the weekend!

Measurements:

Card Base; Bermuda Bay Card stock; 10.5 x 25.2 cm, scored on the long side at 14.8 cm

Basic Black; 2 pieces at 10 x 10 cm, and 1 piece at 10 x 4 cm

Designer Series Paper; 1 piece at 15 x 15 cm, 1 piece at 9.5 x 9.5 cm and 1 piece at 3.5 x 9.5 cm

Bermuda Bay; 9 x 9 cm

Whisper White; 8.5 x 8.5 cm

The inside of this card is where the magic happens… Don’t you LOVE a card with a surprise? I do. The envelope is super easy to make using the Envelope Punch Board. This envelope uses the 15 x 15 cm piece of Designer Series Paper and is punched and scored on each side at 3″. Check the video to see how this works.

Make It Monday | Amazing You Sale-a-bration Eclipse Card

How to make a fun eclipse card using Amazing You from Stampin' Up! Sale-a-bration

StampinByHannah Make It Monday Amazing You Sale-a-bration Eclipse Card

I cannot believe it has taken me quite so long to create an Eclipse card! Pinterest has been full of these for probably about 12 months, and at one point I resisted jumping on the band-wagon… until now! The Celebrate You Thinlits just lend themselves perfectly to this technique, and after I created my husbands Valentines card using it, I just HAD to make another just for you!

I am still loving the Amazing You Stamp Set and Celebrate You thinlits that are available for FREE during Sale-a-bration! That flower is just so pretty, and I am going to be really sad to see it go at the end of the month. However, the Celebrate You thinlits WILL be available in the 2018-2019 Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalogue… but surely its better to get them now for FREE than to pay for them in June?! right!

I think I’ve covered all my top tips for my Eclipse Card in the video…. but if you have any questions to use the comments section below to ask me

Isn’t that colour combination so much fun! I can see this one coming back out again soon… Remember that you can click the colour names above to see all the goodies available from Stampin’ Up! in that particular colour

The second stamp set at work here is Heart Happiness. I just needed something a little extra, and the hearts were just the perfect addition.

Before I go today, I just want to mention about Sale-a-bration! We are in the final 2 weeks of this fabulous offer… and Stampin’ Up! offered even more last week. Sale-a-bration ends on the 31st March, be sure to get your orders in before 10:59PM so you don’t miss out!

Make It Monday | Fold Top Mini Gift Bag using Stampin’ Up! Designer Series Paper

Make It Monday Video Tutorial Fold Top Mini Gift Bags using Bubbles and Fizz Designer Series Paper from Stampin' Up! Sale-a-bration

StampinByHannah Make It Monday | Fold Over top mini gift bag using Stampin’ Up! Designer Series Paper

I don’t know about you but I have started to prepare for Easter.. (I probably should be preparing for Mother’s Day to, but I haven’t even thought about it yet! and its on Sunday!!!). I LOVE making cute little bags and things for chocolates for the people at work, and I think I might make a batch of these for our work Spring Fair at the end of March. I have a plan to put mini chocolate eggs in them, but they would be lovely with some bath salts or mini soap too!

These both use the lovely Bubbles and Fizz Designer Series Paper (available for FREE during Sale-a-bration!), and I think these bright colours make these bags awesome for kids party favours or a school fair! Anyway, the Bubbles and Fizz paper also coordinates with the Bubble Over stamp and die bundle in the Spring Summer catalogue this year. The paper features images that the dies cut out! How cool is that!

Like I mentioned, this Designer Series paper is available for free with a £45 order during Sale-a-bration! Yay!

Measurements:

Designer Series Paper – 6 x 5-1/2″ (15 x 14 cm)

Score on the short side at 1-1/4, 2-1/2, 3-3/4, and 5″ (3, 6 , 9 and 12 cm)

Score on the long side at 1″ (2.5 cm)

There are actually 2 other Sale-a-bration goodies on this project; the Shimmer Ribbon Combo pack, and the Blossoming Basket Stamp Set!

Make It Monday | Acetate Window Card using Petal Palette from Stampin’ Up!

Make It Monday How to Make a Fun Acetate Window Card using Petal Palette from Stampin' Up!

StampinByHannah Make It Monday Acetate Window Card using Petal Palette from Stampin’ Up!

I have been loving playing with stamps recently! I know that sounds really strange, seeing as I work a Stamping business… but you know, sometimes I really don’t feel like stamping! But not recently, I have made SO many cards and projects that I am sure I have blog posts coming for months! I have been having so much fun playing with stamps, ink and paper, making fancy folds and learning new techniques… and I cannot wait to share all of it with you!

Speaking of having fun stamping, I had SO much fun creating this card! You guys know how much I have been LOVING the Petal Palette stamp set and die bundle, and when I first grabbed this set I knew I wanted to make some sort of window card with it. Then I found THIS card from Janet Wakeland… Janet used Stampin’ Blends to colour her Petals, and while I do LOVE the Blends, I haven’t quite got round to buying the Old Olive ones yet (they just keep getting missed off my order!) and so I reached for my Stampin’ Write Markers instead.

The Petal Palette Stamp set and coordinating Petals and More Thinlits are available as a bundle. Bundles are Awesome… as well as giving you an easy way to order coordinating products, you also save 10% when you order a Bundle. You can find ALL of the bundles currently available in my Stampin’ Up! webstore.

I actually have two projects today using Stampin’ Up! Window Sheet… the second is featured in this weeks Stampin’ Inspiration Email! If you haven’t subscribed to my weekly emails yet, you can find the sign up form HERE, or in the Pink bar at the top of the page.

Make It Monday | Making 6 cards with Coffee Break Designer Series Paper from Stampin’ Up!

Make It Monday Video Tutorial Quick and Easy cards with Coffee Break Designer Series Paper from Stampin' Up!

StampinByHannah Make It Monday Making 6 cards with Coffee Break Designer Series Paper from Stampin’ Up!

I needed a stack of cards quickly for some customer Thank You’s at the end of last month, and so took the opportunity to make one of my favourite styles of simple cards.

I have been loving playing with the Coffee Cafe suite this month from the Annual Catalogue, as it has been the focus of my Stamp of the Month Club. So, it just sort of flowed that I used the Coffee Break Designer Series Paper for my January Customer Thank You Cards. I LOVE sending customer thank you packs, each and every customer receives a hand-stamped card from me, and more if they have used the Code Club Code too!

Measurements:

Card Base – 10.5 x 29.85 cm, scored on the long side at 14.85 cm

Designer Series Paper – 10 x 14.3 cm

Whisper White strip – 2.5 x 10.5 cm

The sentiment is from Thankful Thoughts… my absolute ‘go to’ stamp set for thank you’s. These cards are finished with a strip of Burlap ribbon and half a doily.
