3D Friday | Squishy Giftbag

I am loving 3D Friday, I hope you are too! I shared this giftbag project a while ago (it was for a Global Design Project Challenge!) but I realised last week that I never got round to filming the tutorial… so here it is!

This paper of Designer Series Paper has totally grown on me through the course of this years Annual Catalogue, I wasn’t sure fruit themed paper was really my thing, but I have found that I have used it a lot over the past 10 months! This particular pattern is my favourite, and so I have struggled to use it! But the next Annual Catalogue launch is quickly approaching and so I have started my mission to use up my left over Designer Series Paper!

Measurements:

Designer Series Paper: 12 x 6″ (30.5 x 15 cm)

Score on the long side at 3 3/4, 5 3/4, 9 1/2 and 11 1/2″ (9.5, 14.5, 24 and 29 cm)

Score on the short side at 1 1/2″ (4 cm)

Flirty Flamingo mat – 2 x 2 3/4″ (5 x 7 cm)

Whisper White layer – 1 3/4 x 2 1/2″ (4.5 x 6.5 cm)

This Designer Series Paper coordinates with the Fresh Fruit Stamp Set, which is where the stamped images are taken from.

Thanks so much for checking out the blog today. Don’t forget to stop over at my Facebook Page to see what I have been getting up to in Amsterdam this week!

Make It Monday | Note Card Box

Note Card gift Set using Fresh Fruit from Stampin' Up! UK

I spent the a weekend with a few of my Stampin’ Sisters, crafting a few weeks ago, and one of the projects we made was a fabulous note card and tag box – which I will admit I still haven’t finished! But it did inspire me to make something a little simpler this week.

The original box, in Mint Macaron, uses the Christmas Pines stamp set and coordinating Presents and Pinecones Designer Series Paper, while the video version is in Fruit Stand with the Fresh Fruit Stamp set.

Box Measurements:

Box Base – 9 1/2 x 4″, score on the long side at 1, 4 1/2, 5 1/2 and 9″ and the short side at 1″

Box Lid – 9 3/4 x 3″, score on the long side at 1 1/8, 4 5/8, 5 11/16, 9 1/4″, and the short side at 1″

Designer Series Paper – 1 piece 3/4 x 3 1/4″, 2 pieces 3/4 x 1 3/4″, and 2 pieces 1 3/4 x 3 1/4″

The note cards in this set at 3 x 4″ cards, created by cutting card stock to 4 x 6″ and scoring at 3″. The Designer Series Paper is cut to 2 3/4 x 3 3/4. Have I mentioned about the Designer Series Paper yet? No! For the month of October if you buy 3 packs of Designer Series Paper, you can choose another pack for FREE! isn’t that awesome?!

The final part of this project is the envelopes. I make no secret of the fact that I adore the Envelope Punch Board, and I couldn’t make a project with Designer Series Paper without making my own custom envelopes! The punch board lists all the measurements you need for heaps of different card sizes, and so just by looking at the board I found that for 3 x 4″ note cards, you need a piece of 6 x 6″ Designer Series Paper – that means that you get 4 of these envelopes from a sheet of 12 x 12! Handy! The board then instructs you to punch and score at 2 5/8″ to create the envelope.

Island Indigo Fresh Fruit Card Set

Fresh Fruit Card Collection using Stampin' Up! Uk products

I made these 3 cards last month, but somehow I missed posting them! Shocking I know! but you still get to see them in the end, so it doesn’t really matter does it!

I really wanted to make a card using Fresh Fruit that wasn’t fruity … and somehow ended up with a three card set!

Each card has an Island Indigo card base, and a mat of Very Vanilla, but I couldn’t decide which other colour to use, or then how I wanted to apply the sentiment either! So, this first card uses Flirty Flamingo, with the sentiment on a banner
Have you worked out which bit of the Fresh Fruit stamp set I have used yet? Yes, it’s the circles, they are supposed to be the outline of the peach! I just love the look of the outline images in this stamp set, I think they work really well on their own as well as together with their solid partners.

The second card is in Melon Mambo. I decided that I wasn’t keen on the banner on the first card, and would rather use a strip for the sentiment, but then couldn’t decide if I wanted it to go all the way across the card, or just across the Very Vanilla piece

So I tried both! I still don’t think I could pick a favourite either, this last card uses Watermelon Wonder with the Island Indigo.

Which one is your Favourite?

A Fruity Thank you….

Simple Thank You card featuring Fresh Fruit from Stampin' Up! UK

Hey folks, sorry for the lack of a Make It Monday this week, but the last few weeks have been totally crazy here! For a bit of back story, I’m a nurse, but I have recently changed jobs (for the 4th time in 7 months) and am now in a management role (which I am absolutely LOVING!) but I’m working some crazy long shifts over the summer and its not leaving me a whole heap of time for you guys – so August might be a quiet affair around here; however, I’m not going anywhere, my shop is open 24/7 as always and I am always here to answer any questions you may have, just understand it might take me a couple of hours to get back to you. Right, thats enough of that, lets get on with a card shall we?!

This card is super simple to put together, even though it looks complex. The card base is in Peekaboo Peach, and is stamped in Peekaboo Peach on the corners. I’m loving this Designer Series Paper too, very fresh and summery, those apples are so cute!

I’ve been playing with masking again on this card, I stamped the Thank You first, and then stamped the fruits over the top in Watermelon Wonder, Pear Pizzazz, and Peekaboo Peach with Smoky Slate outlines and dots.

My Online Card Class using this stamp set closes at 9PM tonight! I am so excited about getting this one out to you lovely people, my plan is to get it out to you over the weekend, so hopefully by this time next week you’ll be making fabulous cards like this one!

Suite Highlight | Fresh Fruit

Fresh Fruit card making suite from Stampin' Up! UK

I having started a new series here on StampinByHannah, looking at some of the Product Suites in the 2016 Annual catalogue, and seeing has I am using the Fresh Fruit Suite in my new Stamp of the Month Club Online Class I thought I would focus on this one today.

You can find Fresh Fruit on page 148 and 149 of the catalogue, and the suite includes the Fresh Fruit stamp set, Fruit Stand Designer Series Paper and coordinating card stock pack, as well as coordinating ribbon and twine.

How cute are these stamps?! I mentioned yesterday about my love of 2-step stamping and this stamp set features this technique too. Each fruit stamp comes with both a line image and the solid inner, to create these fabulous fruits. Oh, and there is more to this set than just fruit, as it also includes two different sized flowers too.

And then there is the Designer Series Paper…

… which includes fruit themed patterns and some stunning watercolour patterns, stripes and polka dots, so pretty.

I have heaps of ideas coming using this Suite this month as Fresh Fruit features as my Stamp of the Month. You Can join my Stamp of the Month Club for the month HERE, my monthly Online card class – Make 8 great cards for all occasions using Fresh Fruit and the Fruit Stand Designer Series Paper. Card Kit includes the stamps and Designer Series Paper as well as card bases, and embellishments, written instructions and Exclusive Video tutorials.

Make It Monday | Fresh Fruit Box

Fresh Fruit Fresh Stand Designer Series Paper Candle Box using Stampin' Up! UK Products

I have a different sort of project to share with you today. Over the past few weeks I have been sharing card videos for Make It Monday, but today I thought I would make a box instead. I was totally inspired by the Fruit Stand Designer Series Paper on this one, when my pack of paper arrived I pulled out all the papers and immediately thoguht of these awesome candles that have been in my candle draw for AGES! and I couldn’t find them – I was so disappointed, but I found a couple last week and so this box was born….

How cute are these?! and although I made them with Giant Tealights in mind I’m sure that these would also fit some of those very nice chocolate balls too.

The box is simple to put together, in a Pizza box style. I didn’t add a thumb notch on the Melon Mambo version but the Old Olive one I used my 1″ circle punch to take out a little piece at the front just big enough to put your thumb nail in for easier opening

The flower is taken from the Fresh Fruit stamp set. I’m totally loving the 2-step stamping effect of this stamp set, with the solid layer stamped off once before stamping on the project for a lighter tone, and the outline image stamped at full strength. I’m also enjoying this colour combination; Flirty Flamingo and Old Olive, very fresh – great for Summer (if it ever arrives!)

Measurements:

Card stock – 9 1/2 x 5 1/2″ (24 x 14 cm)

Scored on the Long Side at 1 1/2, 4, 5 1/2, and 8″ (4, 10, 14 and 20 cm)

A Fruity Thank You

Customer Thank You Cards using Fresh Fruit from Stampin' Up! UK

If you have ever placed an order with me you will know that I love to send a Thank You card to my customers. If you have ever shopped using my Code Club Code, you will know that you guys get even more! I just LOVE to spoil my customers, you are all awesome, and I wouldn’t be here without you.

I made a stack of these Thank You cards last week for the ladies that attended my Catalogue Launch Party at the beginning of the month. They also got cake and a notebook on the night too.

These cards feature the stamp set that is going to be my Stamp of the Month in July – Fresh Fruit! I have been LOVING making heaps of samples using this set, saying that there is fruit to be seen here! Just pretty flowers…

The colour combination was totally inspired by the matching Designer Series Paper – Fruit Stand – and I have used Peekaboo Peach, Pear Pizzazz, Daffodil Delight and Watermelon Wonder on these cards. The Thank You was stamped first in Peekaboo Peach and masked off using a bit of sticky note, then the flower and leaves were added, and the cards finished with a strip of Designer Series Paper.
