Global Design Project 418 | Love for You…

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah and another Global Design Project idea. So, I made a card for last week.. posted it on Social Media and completely forgot to share it here! Honestly, head has been in the shed for the past couple of weeks… so many shifts at work and juggling childcare hasn’t left me with a lot of brain space for crafting, let alone blogging and sharing.

This week’s challenge is a sketch, and I have kept fairly strictly to it this time. The stripes in the background are hand drawn using a Stampin’ Blend. I’ve gone for a bit of tone on tone here with Orchid Oasis card stock and Blends.

The flowers and sentiment are from the Love For You bundle, and are stamped in Sweet Sorbet, Crushed Curry and Boho Blue.

I have a video for this card coming on Saturday. but wanted to get it uploaded here first.

Global Design Project #408 | Case the Designer with Love for you from Stampin’ Up!

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah… I’ve been playing along with the Global Design Project again. Actually this week, I’ve used it as a bit of jumping off point, with the Summer holidays here things are a bit busy, and I haven’t made it into my craft room for over a week! So, when I got some time this afternoon, I didn’t really know what to create… I love a challenge for this, and this week’s card inspiration is so stunning I had to have a go too.

I’ve used the Love For You stamp set and coordinating dies for this card, and a fun colour combination of Melon Mambo, Crushed Curry, Lost Lagoon and Blueberry Bushel (and a bit of black!)

Global Design Project #393 | For You Friend

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah. I am really enjoying joining in with the Global Design Project at the moment, and this week’s challenge is colour; Flirty Flamingo, Coastal Cabana and Smokey Slate.

Todays card uses the Love For You Stamp set and dies, along with the Tailor Made Tags and Essentials Embossing Folders.

The Card base and leaves are in Coastal Cabana, while the flowers are Flirty Flamingo stamped off once.

The card is finished with a bit of Smoky Slate ink splatter (a technique I haven’t used for ages… and then I’ve done twice in a week!)

Global Design Project #391 | Rain or Shine with Rays of Light

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah! I am loving the sunny weather we have been having in the UK this week, its so nice to see some blue sky. This week’s Global Design Project theme is Rain or Shine, and so inspired by our sunshine, I picked the Shine idea.

Yellow isn’t a colour I use all that often, but here I’ve used TWO! The card base and flower are Crushed Curry, while the sunburst is in Daffodil Delight. I absolutely adore this background stamp; Rays of Light, and have used it on a project already this week, here I’ve paired it with the Love for you bundle to create this fun card.

Inspire.Create.Challenge #140 | Love For You

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah for this week’s Inspire.Create.Challenge. This time out we have a fabulous colour combination of Bermuda Bay, Mango Melody and Polished Pink. Now, I have to admit that these 3 colours are all retiring at the end of this month, and that by the time this post is live, they might have already sold out! However, I couldn’t miss one more play with Bermuda Bay before it moves into my retired drawer.

I made this card for myself. It was mine and my husbands anniversary this week, we’ve been together for 12 years (I know… I don’t feel old enough!)… but James refuses to acknowledge the date as we are now married and that anniversary is in August… But I still like to celebrate, so I made myself a card!

I’ve paired the trio of colours with Crumb Cake, and the Love for You bundle for this special card. The background uses one of the Embossing Folders from the Online Essentials, and I added some Crumb Cake ink with a Blending Brush before I ran the card stock through my Cut’n’Emboss machine.

I will admit that this card took a little while to make, just because there is a LOT of die cutting here, and each of the flowers and leaves is stamped twice. I do love a bit of two-step stamping!

Creative Colour Challenge #CCC83 | Hello Love For You…

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah for another challenge! I have been observing this challenge for months and months (over a year!) but I’ve never managed to get myself organised enough to join in… until now!

The Creative Colour Challenge is organised by the lovely Vickie, who just happens to be one of my Stampin’ Sisters, and she sets the most fabulous colour trio’s every single week. This week it’s Highland Heather, Soft Succulent and Evening Evergreen. Soft Succulent and Evening Evergreen are retiring at the end of this month, so you need to move quickly if you love these colours (in fact, both the ink pad and card stock of Soft Succulent have already sold out!)

The background of this card uses Love For You, and the three colours both in full strength and stamped off once.

The ‘Hello’ is die cut 3 times from Alphabet a la Mode (twice in white and once in Soft Succulent) and then layered to give a dimensional effect.

Inspire.Create.Challenge #135 | Love for You

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah today for this week’s Inspire.Create.Challenge sketch. Do hop over to the Inspire.Create blog and see the sketch and the rest of the Design Team’s creations (and add your own projects too!).

I have been loving creating with the Love for You bundle. The flower stamps in this one are really lovely and the words dies are just perfect.

The Designer Series Paper in the background is from Sun Prints, and uses Night of Navy. I do love a Night of Navy moment, here I’ve paired it with Balmy Blue, Soft Succulent and Blushing Bride… oh, and a hint of Gold too!

This card is finished with a trio of the Adhesive-backed Milky Dots.
