Crafty Challenge Blog Hop | Hues of Happiness

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah for this months Crafty Challenge Blog Hop! This months Challenge was a sketch, which I haven’t played with all that much to be honest. I knew I wanted to use Designer Series Paper for the stripes, but then took a little while to pick a suite…. I am so happy that I settled on Hues of Happiness, I LOVE this suite!

Hues of Happiness Thank you card using Stampin' Up! products with StampinByHannah

The stripes of Designer Series Paper are layered onto a panel of Basic White card stock, which I have die cut using the Stylish Shapes dies for that stitched edge and then popped up on a heap of Dimensionals. The layer behind is stamped with the coordinating Happiness Abounds stamp set in Night of Navy Ink.

The sentiment uses the Amazing Thanks dies and is cut from Basic White and Bermuda Bay card stock. And the card is finished with a trio of Glossy Dots.

Share It Sunday | Warm Welcome Stepped Up Card

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah. When it came to making a card for this Sunday’s blog hop, I was looking through the complete mess on my desk, and spotted THESE CARDS that I made as part of last Sunday’s Facebook Live, and thought this would be a great opportunity to created a ‘Stepped Up’ version.

Rainbow stamping with Warm Welcome from Stampin' Up! with StampinByHannah

This card uses the Warm Welcome bundle, and this time I have added some Stylish Shapes die cuts, vellum, and linen thread. The original version of this card had the presents coloured with blends, but this time I have used Watercolour Pencils on Sahara Sand card stock for a softer look.

Crafty Challenge Blog Hop | Yeti to Party

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah today for a fabulous Crafty Challenge blog hop! This month we were challenged to create with an unusual colour combination; Basic Black, Garden Green, Fresh Freesia and Smokey Slate. I really love these colours together, but I would NEVER have come up with putting them together.

One of my favourite stamp sets from this years July-December Mini catalogue is Yeti to Party, and so I double challenged myself to come up with a card that used both the colour combination AND that fabulous Yeti! And I think I succeeded!

The yeti and presents are stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink, and then coloured with a combination of Stampin’ Blends and Stampin’ Up! Ink and a blender pen.

I am also LOVING this embossing folder; Whimsical Trees, which I have embossed in Basic White and then added some Fresh Freesia ink over the top with a Blending Brush.

International Blog Highlight | Thanks Biggest Wish

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah today for Kylie’s International Blog Highlight. I would LOVE it if you would pop over to Kylie’s blog and vote for this card to take part in the July Blog Hop !

I have been having heaps of fun recently with the Rays of Light background stamp. This is certainly one of the gems in this years Annual Catalogue, an perfect for making a simple card very special. Here I inked it in Pale Papaya and then used a Blending Brush to add some Calypso Coral to the outside edges to create a sort of ombre effect.

Simple Stamping Thank you card using Biggest Wish from Stampin' Up! with StampinByHannah

The ‘Thanks’ is stamped from Biggest Wish (one of my favourite sentiment sets of the moment!), and is in Pacific Point. I don’t use this colour often, but I think it really works with these orange tones on the rest of this card. The stamps in Biggest Wish are super easy to fussy cut, and I think it just adds an extra something to this #simplestamping card!

I finished this one with a trio of the new Fine Sparkle Adhesive-backed Gems in Calypso Coral.

You can find the Supply List for this card HERE, and don’t forget to pop over to Kylie’s Blog to vote!

Pootlers Blog Hop | 3 Card Ideas with the Sun Prints suite from Stampin’ Up!

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah today. Today is a little bit special, because its our team blog hop, we do about 3 of these a year to celebrate the release of new Stampin’ Up! Catalogues. They are SO much fun, and I hope that you hit some of the other ladies blogs later using the links at the end of this blog post.

When I was shopping through the new Annual Catalogue, this suite didn’t immediately jump out at me. However, after seeing some of the fabulous creations that the Artisan’s had created with it, it fell into my basket!

Handmade Thank  You card using Sun Prints from Stampin' Up! with StampinByHannah

I have made 3 cards to share with you today, but I think that I will make some more to share on my weekly YouTube Live on Wednesday night, because these are so fun and really simple to do!

Sentimental Swirls | Pootlers Blog Hop!

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah today. This is the 3rd blog hop with the Pootler’s so far this year, but really I think this is the most special. Over a year ago, Sam Hammond Donald hit the massive career milestone of selling $1Million worth of Stampin’ Up! products, and so got to help design a stamp set. This stamp set launched in January, and today’s hop is dedicated to showcasing this one fabulous stamp set. Check out everyone else’s ideas using the links at the end of this post.

Hello Sentimental Swirls from Stampin' Up! with StampinByHannah

One of the things that I think is really cool about this stamp set is that it coordinates with two fabulous punches; Flowers and Leaves, and the Strawberry Builder. PLUS, it is perfect for two-step stamping (one of my favourite techniques!) for quick colouring.

For this card, I coloured the flowers using Stampin’ Blends, in Misty Moonlight and So Saffron.

Pootlers Blog Hop | Happiness with Pansy Patch

Join the Number 1 Stampin' Up! Team in the UK

Welcome to the Pootlers Annual Catalogue 2021 Blog Hop! I am SO excited to be hopping with our fabulous team again. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen any of the team in person (Thanks Covid) and I cannot wait to give them all some seriously big squishy hugs at our next event.

One of my favourite suites from the new Annual Catalogue is the Pansy Petals suite. It’s come as a bit of a surprise really, because I’d forgotten that I’d even ordered it! But, it’s so fun to layer up the pansy stamps and there are so many wonderful colour combinations that I can’t see me getting bored with this one any time soon!

Happiness Handstamped card using Pansy Patch from Stampin' Up! with StampinByHannah

I made a Home Decor piece with this bundle last weekend, that used a fun pink and coral colour combo, but this time I’ve had a bit of a Google of pansies and found this pretty blue combination. So, the blooms here are stamped in; Balmy Blue, Misty Moonlight (stamped off), Bumblebee (stamped off), Bumblebee, and Blackberry Bliss.

The stamps line up really easily, but the dies also coordinate with the Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper if you wanted to go for a non-stamped card!

Fun Pansy floral card using Bumblebee trinkets and Stitched So Sweetly dies from Stampin' Up! with StampinByHannah

The card base is one of the brand new In Colours; Soft Succulent, and its a colour I’m loving already! Here I’ve also used a piece of the Designer Series Paper in the same colour, from Pansy Petals, and the sentiment is also stamped in the same ink.

The Bumblebee Trinkets are the perfect finisher. So pretty!

Check out the rest of the team’s creations by clicking on the images below and I hope to see you here again soon!

Time to Sale-a-brate Berry Blessings with the Pootlers Blog Hop!

Welcome to StampinByHannah and the first Pootlers Team Blog Hop of 2021! This time we’re sharing a heap of projects using the new Sale-a-bration gifts.

There are a bunch of really cool Stamp Sets and Designer Series Paper packs that you can currently receive for FREE with an order of over £45! How cool is that?!

Berry Blessings

I thought I would create with the Berry Blessings stamp set today. This stamp set comes with a pack of Designer Series Paper and so requires a £90 spend, BUT it also coordinates with the Sweet Strawberry stamp set and punch bundle from the new Mini Catalogue!

Quick and simply card using Berry Blessings from Stampin' Up! Sale-a-bration 2021 with StampinByHannah

One of the reasons I love this stamp set (and Sweet Strawberry) is that you don’t need to get the markers out to colour the images… as they all have a outline stamp and then a filled stamp to colour the image!

This card uses Misty Moonlight for the card base and the blueberries, and Pear Pizzazz for the leaves and sentiment.

I couldn’t pass the opportunity to stamp with blueberries either… they are my daughters absolute favourite fruit, I think she’d eat them at every meal if she could!
