Inspire.Create.Challenge #147 | Sketch idea using Nature’s Prints

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah for this week’s Inspire.Create.Challenge. This time Jo has set us a fabulous sketch, and after freaking out a little over the horizontal lines I was inspired by a card Patty Bennet shared. Patty used a Blending Brush and ripped paper to create a fabulous background, and I took this idea to create the two horizontal lines

The colour combination here is Basic White, Blackberry Bliss and Bubble Bath (would you believe me if I said that I hadn’t clocked that they all start with a B until I wrote this post).

The stamp set at work here is Nature’s Prints, along with the coordinating dies and the Stylish Shapes die set.

Stampin’ Dreams | Summer Fun with Share a Milkshake

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah for this month’s Stampin’ Dreams Blog Hop. This month’s theme is Summer Fun… and what is more fun that a trip to the ice cream shop? (I know my 4 year old would agree!).

I’m really loving a rainbow of colours at the moment, and whilst this one is more subtle than yesterdays project I still love it just as much. The colour combination at work here is Lemon Lolly, Petal Pink, Soft Seafoam, Pool Party, Bubble Bath and Coastal Cabana.

Global Design Project 402 | Beautiful Balloons…

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah. I’ve had a few weeks off from sharing along with the Global Design Project, I’ve made a few projects and then not got around to posting! (life is busy, as usual… and my kids have been poorly). Anyway, this week, I have not only managed to make the project, but I’ve found 10 minutes to write the blog post as well!

Challenge 402 is a fabulous sketch, you can find sketch and more inspiration over on the Global Design Project Blog.

This card uses the fabulous Beautiful Balloons bundle, and a rainbow of card stock! The colours here at Poppy Parade, Pumpkin Pie, Crushed Curry, Parakeet Party, Coastal Cabana, Pretty Peacock, Azure Afternoon, Orchid Oasis and Bubble Bath.

Technique Tuesday | Vintage card idea using Nature’s Prints

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah for this month’s Technique Tuesday blog hop. This month we are sharing Vintage inspired projects and I chose to re-make a project I made several years ago

This card uses Nature’s Prints stamp set, along with Crumb Cake, Pecan Pie and Boho Blue inks. I really enjoy a layered stamping moment, and here I’ve also added a layer of Crumb Cake ink blended over the top of the leaves and ink splatters. Also, worth noting I’ve used Very Vanilla Card stock here too, rather than my usual Basic White.

The sentiment is stamped in Pecan Pie, and punched it out using the 2″ circle punch.

Inspire.Create.Challenge 146 | Let’s Go Shopping…

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah for another fabulous Inspire.Create.Challenge. This week we have a fun inspiration piece to work from, and while the original was a Fancy Fold, I’ve converted it into a standard card instead.

The Let’s Go Shopping bundle is one of my current fav’s and I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to use it again. Here, the background card and Designer Series Paper are in Gray Granite, and so all the elements are stamped in the same colour. The shop front was then coloured using Stampin’ Blends and the card finished with a scattering of sequins.

Crafty Challenge Blog Hop | Colour Combination with Textured Floral from Stampin’ Up!

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah for this month’s Crafty Challenge blog hop. This month Stefanie set us a colour combination, from a picture. I’ve had to make a couple of edits due to available colours.

So, Pale Papaya became Petal Pink and Pacific Point became Blueberry Bushel. Also, I don’t own a Cajun Craze ink pad (its just a colour I am all that keen on, and I only buy what I love!), so I switched it for Pecan Pie.

This is the first card I have made with the Textured Floral stamp set, and so I have used one of the cards from the catalogue as inspiration, mostly for the layout of the floral spray. The sentiment is stamped in Blueberry Bushel onto a piece of Basic White, and die cut using one of the Something Fancy dies. Before I took the die cut out of the die, I added a hint of Tahitian Tide ink with a Blending Brush.

Inspire.Create.Challenge #145 | Cute Childs Birthday card using Zany Zoo

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah for this week’s Inspire.Create.Challenge. This time, Jo has challenged us to make a card for a baby or child. Now, I have two very small children (4 and 2) and so this should have been easy… except that I don’t really make cards for my kids, so the only stamp set that I have that is child-like is Zany Zoo.

Kept it fairly simple, kids don’t want the fuss of an overly layered card. However, I have got a video… you can check that out below. Please do pop over to my YouTube though and subscribe as I do post content over there that doesn’t always find its way here!

You can find the shopping list for this project HERE… and while I’m thinking about it, this Designer Series Paper is 15% off until the end of June!

InspireINK | Thank you with Just My Type

InspirInk Blog Hop Header Stampin' Up! team blog hop

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah and to this month’s InspireINK blog hop. This month we have a fabulous sketch to create with. My card is basically the sketch… yes, for once I haven’t messed about with it too much!

The Just My Type stamp set arrived in my craft room this week, and I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to use it on this card. Here I’ve paired it with the Glorious Gingham Designer Series Paper and Berry Burst ink and card stock.

Pride Blog Hop | Artistically Inked Rainbow

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah and to the Crafty Collaborations Pride Blog Hop for 2023. I absolutely LOVE a rainbow, and so couldn’t pass up the opportunity to make a rainbow project.

Pride means different things to different people, for me its about everyone being welcome, and I hope that everyone feels welcome here.

Saying this, I have used a rainbow of colours I haven’t used before on this card! I was inspired by a post from Helen Read at AllThingsStampy on Instagram, and she suggested a rainbow of Poppy Parade, Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight, Shaded Spruce, Blueberry Bushel and Berry Burst.

Today’s rainbow uses the Artistically Inked stamp set (and oldie but a goodie in my collection!) and the coordinating Artistic dies.
