Inspire.Create.Challenge 017 | Share What You Love Sketch Challenge

Inspire.Create.Challenge 017 Sketch Challenge with Share What You Love from Stampin' Up!

StampinByHannah Inspire.Create.Challenge 018 Share What You Love Sketch Challenge

This week’s Inspire.Create.Challenge is a sketch! I do LOVE a good sketch challenge, and while I’m sharing heaps of Share What You Love inspiration this week I thought I would continue to do that here too…

I’ve kept things simple again this week… as I made this project on Saturday afternoon… but using the Share What You Love Designer Series Paper you really don’t need to do much else! It’s simply stunning!

This is also the first time I’ve given you a peak at one of the new In-Colours here on the blog! This card features the brand new Grapefruit Grove, as well as one of the returning favourites; Mint Macaron (having a party to celebrate this one!). While it’s not a colour combination I think I’ll be reaching for often, I quite like it!

Don’t forget to head over to Inspire.Create.Challenge to see the creations from the rest of the Design Team, and to share your creations with us to!

Share What You Love | Early Release Bundles…

Share what you love a little more please bundle

StampinByHannah Share What You Love 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!

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!

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.

You can get all of these bundles in my Online Store from today! Shop HERE!

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!

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!

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!

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.

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

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!
