Make It Monday

I’ve been a little obsessed with the Share What You Love Designer Series Paper recently. I still have heaps of samples using it to share with you from my Display Board from Stampin’ Up! OnStage back at the beginning of April…. so many that I might just do a really long post with all the cards on! I was planning on spreading them out over a few weeks, but I’m having a lovely period of creativity at the moment, and I keep making more!

Today’s card combines the Share What You Love Designer Series Paper with one of my favourite stamp sets from the past year; Happy Birthday Gorgeous!

Make It Monday Happy Birthday Gorgeous meets Share What You Love from Stampin' Up! Birthday Card Video Tutorial

This fun card features a large piece of that Share What You Love Designer Series Paper, along with one of those beautiful Pearlised Doilies. I will admit I wasn’t convinced by these new doilies when I first got my hands on them, but the more I’ve used them the most I LOVE them. The Pearlised finish is only on one side, the other side is a matt white….so they could be any colour you choose, you just need to grab an ink pad and a sponge! Love that! The Designer Series Paper and the Doilies are both part of the Share What You Love Early Release Bundles… check them out!

I have been playing a lot with layers recently, and this card shows that off too! Ready for the card recipe?

  • Mint Macaron Card Base; 29.7 x 10.5 cm, scored on the long side at 14.85 cm
  • Basic Black card stock; 13.3 x 9 cm
  • Share What You Love Designer Series Paper; 12.8 x 8.5 cm
  • Half a Pearlised Doily
  • Half a Pretty Label punched out of Champagne Foil Sheet
  • 2 Leaves punched from Vellum using the Leaf punch
  • Classic Label punch stamped with 2 stamps from Happy Birthday Gorgeous

The Happy Birthday Gorgeous Stamp Set can currently be found on the Retiring List…. but it’s not going anywhere. It’s featured on the Retiring List because it is currently bundled with a fabulous Happy Birthday Thinlit die, and the bundle is being retired at the end of this years Annual Catalogue. The bundle price allows you to save 10% when you buy the stamp set and die together, so I’d be grabbing this one sooner rather than later to get that discount!

What is a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator? and why you want to be one!

Stampin' Up! Spring Summer catalogue

StampinByHannah What is a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator? and why you want to be one!

Welcome to Stampin Up! Team Banner

Becoming a part of Stampin’ Up! might be one of the best things I have ever done! I have talked about what Stampin’ Up! has done for me before, but today I want to talk to you about what it means to be a Demonstrator… and why it’s really not scary!

What is a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator?

Ok, so I’m not so sure about the word ‘Demonstrator’ in this sentence! Because it implies that you need to Demonstrate something… that is not the case! A Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator is simply someone who has bought a Stampin’ Up! Starter Kit (best deal in the catalogue!)… and gets 20% discount on their crafty purchases. Some Demonstrators choose to just buy for themselves, while others make fabulous businesses out of it, some do craft fairs and live classes, some prefer to sit behind a camera and make YouTube videos, some simply just craft with their friends.

Stampin' Up! UK Starter Kit

What does it take to become a Demonstrator?

All you have to do is buy a Stampin’ Up! Starter Kit! That is it! The kit costs £99…. and is fully customisable (you choose what goes in it!). You get to pick £130 worth of crafty goodies to put in your kit, and Stampin’ Up! throw in a pack of catalogues, and some other handy bits and pieces too.

Your Demonstrator period lasts a minimum of 3 months… if you join today you would remain a Demonstrator without spending anything else until the end of September. However, you can continue your Demonstratorship by selling (or shopping) approximately £270 worth of Stampin’ Up! goodies! If you don’t reach this value nothing bad or scary happens (The Stampin’ Up! police don’t come to your door and demand your crafty stash back!)… you first have a Pending month, before you drop back to be a happy customer.

Stampin' Up1 OnStage

What are the benefits of being a Demonstrator?

Oh man… there are SO many! Where shall I start?

  • 20% Discount on your Stampin’ Up! purchases
  • Catalogue Pre-order periods
  • Access to Stampin’ Up! events
  • An Exclusive magazine; Stampin’ Success
  • Invitations to a fabulous Demonstrator community on Facebook
  • Opportunities to attend team events and retreats
  • The chance to earn a holiday
  • Inspiration
  • Friendships
  • and much much more…

Why join during May?

The Stampin’ Up! Starter Kit is a great deal any month… but May is a great time to join! Demonstrators are currently able to pre-order from the Stampin’ Up! 2018 Annual catalogue, and you can add these goodies into your Starter Kit too!

With the changes to the Stampin’ Up! colour families and inks, grabbing a Starter Kit is a great way to get all the colours at a discount!

You could add the Share What You Love Bundles to your Starter Kit and get them for even better value!

How do I join?

It’s easy…. just follow THIS link to complete your order of a Starter Kit!

Memory Keeping with Stampin' Up!

Ok, so I have spoken before about how Scrapbooking was my first papercraft… But I’ve never really shared it here on my blog. Until now! I HOPE to be bringing you some more memory keeping really soon, I have 4 of these posts planned but when the other 3 will go live I’m not sure yet!

Share What You Love 12 x 12 Scrapbook page using Love What You Do from Stampin' Up!

I have a video for this one that probably shows this project better than the photos (something else I need to work on!). This page is destined to end up in my Wedding Album, when I am able to get all that goodness back out of storage! All my wedding photos are stored together, hence why there isn’t an actual photograph on this page.

The paper here is all from the Share What You Love Speciality Designer Series Paper pack. I LOVE this paper! It features some lovely pearlised highlights, floral prints and beautiful colours too. This paper is officially released on the 1st June, BUT you can get in now in the Gotta Have It All Bundle as part of the Share What You Love Early Release.

Share What You Love 12 x 12 Scrapbook page using Love What You Do from Stampin' Up!

I’ve also stamped the background with the coordinating Love What You Do stamp set. It’s stamped here in Memento Tuxedo Black ink, straight onto the Whisper White 12 x 12 background.

Stampin' Up! Share What You Love Suite Early Release Bundles

Oh my goodness…. how exciting is this! 4 fabulous bundles of brand new products released a whole month ahead of the new Stampin’ Up! 2018 Annual Catalogue. Yesterday I featured some one of the stamp sets and the Designer Series Paper… and today you can grab them for yourselves!

This is the first of the 4 bundles… perfect for a crafty gift, or if your just getting started with card making! My Newsletter Exclusive video tutorial from yesterday used these fabulous products to make a really quick and simple card. You can subscribe to my weekly emails at anytime HERE!

Share what you love a little more please bundle

The second one of our bundles is perfect for someone who wants to get going using ribbons and embellishments on their projects. The ribbon that comes in this bundle is GORGEOUS… and don’t get me started on the doilies and those Artisan Pearls! I know that you could get masses of cards from this bundle…. you could get 48 card bases just from the pack of Share What You Love Card stock!

Share What you love gotta have it all bundle Stampin' Up!

The 3rd bundle is the one that I think is the MUST HAVE! Not only do you get 3 fabulous stamp sets, card stock, and embellishments… you get a whole pack of the gorgeous Share What You Love Speciality Designer Series Paper. This would be the perfect kit to add to your Stampin’ Up! Starter Kit! Worth noting actually, is that the Annual Catalogue Pre-Order period for Demonstrators also starts today… and so by grabbing a Starter Kit you could also get your hands on some other fantastic new products too!

The 4th bundle is so fun! This 4th ‘bonus’ bundle gives you all 5 of the new Stampin’ Up! Ink Pads… in the new ink pad style. I am totally in LOVE with these colours, and cannot wait to get creative with them.

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.

Stampin' Up! Share What You Love Suite Love What You Do Video Tutorial Make It Monday

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…

Stampin' Up! Love What You Do Display Board Sample

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!

May Code Club…

May Code Club Code Stampin' Rewards Hostess Code Stampin' Up!

StampinByHannah May Code Club…

StampinByHannah Code Club Stampin' Rewards Hostess Club

I know that it’s not quite May yet… but the April Code Club closed yesterday, and I didn’t want to leave you hanging!

This is the Code Club Code for May 2018; CXMAZNTM

May Code Club Code Stampin' Rewards Hostess Code Stampin' Up!

How does the Code Club Work?

Each month I will release a new code for anyone shopping online with me. This code will be posted here, as well as on my homepage and in my newsletter. When you are shopping please enter this code before you check out. Your goodies will be delivered as normal by UPS in 3-5 working days.

At the end of each month all those who have shopped with me, and who have used the code, will receive a wonderful free gift, in addition to the hand-stamped cards that I send to all shoppers. These ship separately to your main order, and will be delivered directly from me via The Royal Mail. These gifts are collected using Stampin’ Rewards… the more you collectively spend, the bigger the gift I can then send!

However…. if your order is over £150, DONT enter the code… you will automatically qualify for your own Stampin’ Rewards PLUS my Code Club too!

Where do I enter the code?

Before you click to Checkout, check your Shopping Bag. At the bottom of this page there is a box for a Hostess Code – Enter your Code Club Code Here

What if I am spending more the £150?

If you are spending more than £150 then you will qualify for your own credit – for you to spend however you choose. Don’t worry you will still receive a special something from me!

I have shopped with you before but have never received a handstamped card!

This maybe because you are a No Contact customer. I can only contact people who shop with me if they have allowed me to!

You can change these settings later by logging into your Stampin’ Up! online account, and selecting ‘My Account’ in the top right. Then select ‘My Demonstrator’ and change the options to ‘YES! allow my demonstrator to contact me!’

By selecting to allow me to contact you, not only will you receive a handstamped card as a Thanks for each order, but you will also receive the links for my Weekly Newsletter and the VIP Facebook Group!

InspireINK | Wedding Congratulations with Petal Palette from Stampin’ Up!

Pretty in Pink Wedding Congratulations card using Petal Palette from Stampin' Up!

StampinByHannah InspireINK Wedding Congratulations with Petal Palette from Stampin’ Up!

InspirInk Blog Hop Header Stampin' Up! team blog hop

Are you ready for some serious Wedding Inspiration this month?! I think the girls on the InspireInk team thought I was a bit mean when I made the suggestion of doing a Wedding theme this month… but I know that we are just gearing up for the Wedding Season and I am sure that Wedding or Congratulations inspiration is always much appreciated!

I just HAD to use my absolute favourite stamp set from this years Stampin’ Up! Spring Summer catalogue for this congratulations card… the Petal Palette bundle has been constantly out and on my desk since it arrived in my craft room back in December. I am SO excited that it is carrying over in this years Annual Catalogue too! I do have a confession to make about this card though… It was made it right at the beginning of the month, before Stampin’ Up! announced the Colour Revamp… and so it does uses Rose Red which is sadly about to retire!

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

The other retiring item on this card is the Petal Palette bundle… while the stamps and the dies are continuing into the new catalogue the 10% bundle discount will end on the 31st May. So it is definitely worth thinking about grabbing it sooner rather than later!

This card is a little different from the ones I usually share here on the blog, it’s a totally different size! The Blushing Bride card base is cut at 10 x 5″, and scored on the long edge at 5″ to create a 5 x 5″ square card (and I’m going to have to get out my Envelope Punch Board to make it a custom sized envelope too!). The layers are then cut at 4-3/4 x 4-3/4 and 4-1/2 x 4-1/2 ” to create the pretty layered effect.

InspireINK Blog Hop Wedding Card using Petal Palette from Stampin' Up!

The main detail on this card is concentrated in the bottom right hand corner… and I’ve been playing with layering again so we have:

  • stamped dotty boarder stamp from Petal Palette in Blushing Bride ink
  • Die cut boarder in Fresh Fig
  • Die cut floral corner from Champagne foil sheet
  • Two birds stamped from Petal Palette in Blushing Bride and Rose Red, die cut with the coordinating Petals and More Thinlits
  • Congratulations stamped in Fresh Fig and die cut before being popped up on Dimentionals
  • A trio of Clear Facet Gems

I hope that you have enjoyed you visit to StampinByHannah today, please do consider signing up for my regular emails (and exclusive email tutorials!) before you hop along to the next person on our Wedding Themed Blog Hop….
