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.

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.

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!

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.

InspireINK Blog Hop | Happy Birthday with Share a Milkshake

InspirInk Blog Hop Header Stampin' Up! team blog hop

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah for this months InspireINK blog hop. This months theme is ‘Birthday’, I cannot wait to see what the rest of the team have created. To find out, you can use the links at the end of this blog post.

I am still loving the Share a Milkshake stamp set, and I just think it’s the perfect stamp set for a birthday card (other than the fact it doesn’t have a ‘Happy Birthday’ sentiment!).

This card was inspired by this one that I found on Pinterest. I haven’t used Crumb Cake like this for ages, I do LOVE a Crumb Cake background. The other colours here are Pretty Peacock and Bubble Bath.

Happy Birthday with Zany Zoo

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah! Today’s card is very special, it was my daughters 4th birthday last week (the last 4 years have gone so super fast… not idea how she is 4 already!), and so I had to make her a birthday card. She LOVES to spend time with me in my craft room, and while she doesn’t join in much, she loves to watch and chat while I craft.

This card was inspired by THIS card from Jaimie Babarczy…. and it does use a couple of retired bits. The cute critter and the Designer Series Paper are both from the Zoo Crew suite, and in fact this little guy isn’t stamped at all, but actually cut from the Designer Series Paper (using a die!) instead.

The large number 4 is sadly a long retired die, but its so perfect for the kids birthdays that it’ll be a feature in my craft room for quite some time yet.

With this card being so special, it also got a stamped inside. I always mean to do this for all my cards, but in reality, it only happens to cards I am actually sending!

And she got a cute envelope too!

Technique Tuesday Blog Hop | Designer Series Paper

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah for the Crafty Collaborations Technique Tuesday Blog Hop. This month our technique is to use Designer Series Paper. I LOVE Designer Series Paper, I know some people struggle to cut their paper, but I really love to use it! Although, I like using little pieces… very much like on today’s card.

This card was inspired by THIS card by Kaylee Den Breejen. Kaylee’s card used coloured Designer Series Paper, but I am really enjoying using black and white at the moment, and the Zoo Crew Designer Series Paper.

The stamped image here is from the coordinating stamp set, Zany Zoo, coloured using Moody Mauve Stampin’ Blends.
