Creative Colour Challenge #CCC83 | Hello Love For You…

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah for another challenge! I have been observing this challenge for months and months (over a year!) but I’ve never managed to get myself organised enough to join in… until now!

The Creative Colour Challenge is organised by the lovely Vickie, who just happens to be one of my Stampin’ Sisters, and she sets the most fabulous colour trio’s every single week. This week it’s Highland Heather, Soft Succulent and Evening Evergreen. Soft Succulent and Evening Evergreen are retiring at the end of this month, so you need to move quickly if you love these colours (in fact, both the ink pad and card stock of Soft Succulent have already sold out!)

The background of this card uses Love For You, and the three colours both in full strength and stamped off once.

The ‘Hello’ is die cut 3 times from Alphabet a la Mode (twice in white and once in Soft Succulent) and then layered to give a dimensional effect.

Inspire.Create.Challenge #139 | Sketch Challenge…

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah for this week’s Inspire.Create.Challenge. This week the lovely Jo has set us a sketch… and what a sketch it is! This one had me stumped for a little bit, but I really love the card I created. Hop over to the Inspire.Create blog to see the sketch and find out what the rest of the Design Team have been up to!

I pulled the colour combination out first; Sahara Sand, Parakeet Party and Orchid Oasis, and then created those diagonal lines but masking and then ink blending.

Both the hexagon die cut and the ‘Hello’ are stamped using Hand-Penned Petals for a little detail. I finished this one with some loops of Linen Thread, but you could definately take this idea further.

InspireINK | New Year New Project with Hand Drawn Dots from Stampin’ Up!

InspirInk Blog Hop Header Stampin' Up! team blog hop

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah and our first InspireINK blog hop of 2023! This month we are celebrating all things new with a fun theme of New Year New Project. So, I’ve reached for my absolute favourite new stamp in my craft room… Hand Drawn Dots! This is one of those stamp sets that leapt out at me the first time I looked through the new Stampin’ Up! catalogue, it just HAD to have a spot on my stamp shelf.

Hello card using Hand Drawn Dots from Stampin' Up! with StampinByHannah

While I was on a theme of favourites, it felt only right to pull my all time favourite Stampin’ Up! colour; Blackberry Bliss, and a set of dies that landed in my room this week that I hadn’t used yet; Alphabet a la Mode. These dies are AWESOME! I would highly recommend getting some Adhesive Sheet to use with them though because they are very thin.

The Dots are stamped in Rich Razzleberry, whilst the rest of the card is Blackberry Bliss. I felt that it needed a little more texture and so I added some ruffles of White Seam Binding ribbon behind the letters. The head embossed sentiment is from Thanks a Bunch (Which is FREE as part of Sale-a-bration!)
