Make It Monday | How to make 6 Simple Thank You Cards from 1 Sheet of Designer Series Paper

Make It Monday Video Tutorial How to Make 6 Simple Thank You Cards using 1 sheet of Floral Boutique Designer Series Paper from Stampin' Up!

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah this week! I hope you have had a great weekend, I am in recovery mode after spending the weekend with my Stampin’ Sisters in Amsterdam (check out my Facebook / Instagram for what we got up to!)

I have a slightly different video tutorial for you today… making 6 cards from start to finish

Each month I make cards for my Customers as part of my Thank You packets. Everyone who shops with me receives a hand made card, along with a sweet treat and my monthly newsletter. I love sending these out, and they get even better when you use the Code Club Code! This special club starts a fresh each month, all you have to do to join in is add the monthly code at check out, and I will send you something special the following month!

I don’t usually give you measurements for cards, but I mentioned them in the video…. although I make cards in metric measurements (mainly because I use A4) so that is what I have put here

Measurements:

Card Base – Half A4, folded in half (I do this by taking a sheet of A4 and scoring on the short edge at 10.5 cm, and then cutting at 14.85 cm – this why I have scored and cut two cards at once)

Whisper White mat – 10 x 14.3 cm

Designer Series Paper – 9.5 x 13.8 cm

Whisper White stripe (which is the end of the piece of Whisper White when you’ve cut 4 pieces as above) – 1.2 x 10 cm

I love this Designer Series Paper…. so much that I have been guilty of hoarding it! However, as we approach the end of this years Annual catalogue it’s time to get that DSP used! This particular paper is Floral Boutique and it coordinates with the Floral Phrases stamp set (that also has coordinating dies!). This suite of products is just stunning and would make beautiful wedding stationary.

Right, that’s all for me today, I’m off to unpack and sort of laundry before I start back at the day job tomorrow!

Don’t forget to shop using the Code Club Code to receive some great FREE product!

Congratulations Card using Floral Phrases

Floral Phrases congratulations card using stamps from Stampin' Up! UK

As you will know if you have shopped with me, I LOVE to send cards to my customers, team members and other crafty friends, I don’t always need a reason, but I will send a card if someone has reached a milestone, or done something awesome. And so this card was one I made for one of the girls in the team a month or so ago for reaching one of her goals!

I have been trying not to stamp the Floral Phrases stamp set in Night of Navy, but its hard to avoid when using it with the coordinating Floral Boutique Designer Series Paper! The Floral image is stamped directly onto the DSP, and then the spatter stamp from Gorgeous Grunge is heat embossed in Gold over the top.

I have already shared this card with the team too, we had a great night of crafty chat and card making on Facebook a few weeks ago, and I shared this as my Swap! The person I sent it to had already received it, so I knew it was safe! I’m planning on a few online team nights in the coming months on our Team Facebook Group, and I would love you to join us! You can find out more about joining my team HERE!

Question of the day: What crafty project are you working on this week?

I’m still trying to get a stack of Christmas cards finished ready for James to send to his work and University friends, as well as finishing my projects for my blog up until the end of the year, oh and prepping for my classes and events in the new year too! busy busy!

Simply Sketched Saturday Challenge | October 2016

Oh yes, It’s that time again! Time for the Simply Sketched Saturday Challenge! I LOVE taking part in this challenge every month, we have a great time working with a sketch set by one of our members, and this month it is the gorgeous Sally Shaw.

Now, this sketch scared the pants off me! I would consider myself quite well versed in working with a sketch by now, but really I had NO idea what I was going to do with this one. When Sally sent it over to me to create the graphic I sat for a few minutes trying to see a stamp set or some Designer Series Paper, or anything I could work with as a jumping off point. My brain chose this moment to loose all creativity…. I had nothing!

But, it’s Ok, because the other thing that my brain does to me on a regular basis is remind me of stuff, this image kept coming to me – always when I was driving, or a work…. never anywhere I could be creative to get this sketch onto paper! Typical! But the one thing that kept coming back was those two long thin boxes and the idea of replacing them with ribbon or twine.

And so the thought of Twine became my jumping off point! I have made a few cards with a similar design recently, there is just something about those Layering Circles that just makes me want to use them all the time!

Seeing as I had a brand new spool of Night of Navy Bakers Twine it seemed sensible to use it on this card, one I had a colour I found this lovely Designer Series Paper in my paper storage, and that then linked me to the coordinating stamp set; Floral Phrases. The band across the card (yes I know, its not on the sketch, I’m using some artistic licence here) is heat embossed in white onto Night of Navy – love that border stamp.

The Sentiment is taken from the Designer Tin of Cards stamp set. It has a heart on it, and it just felt completely right to cover it with an Enamel Shape, I nearly kept to the monotone theme and used a Night of Navy heart too, but then remembered another challenge I took part in ages ago with was about monotone with a pop of colour, and so added a Real Red heart instead.

So, seeing as I couldn’t get my head around the sketch at all when it first landed on my desk, I am really rather pleased with the card I have created this week!

I cannot wait to see what the others have made this month, why not join me and hop along to the next person in our Challenge by using the Next button below.
