Freshly Made Sketches #188 – Something to Say….

Stampin' Up! UK something to say itty bitty accents petite petals

I’m here on a Saturday again joining in over at Freshly Made Sketches, I have been really enjoying using sketches to push my cardmaking out of my comfort zone. I have to admit, when I first looked at the sketch for this week, I panicked! I don’t tend to make cards with lots of layers, I don’t really know why, because I think I should!

Stampin' Up! freshly made sketches

 

So, the very first thing I do when I get my hands on a new sketch is to stand in front of my stamp sets. This week I came up with nothing, I try and check the sketch early in the week, after its release on Tuesday. This week when I looked on Tuesday night, I stood in front of those stamp sets, and stood, and stood. Inspiration escaped me. Completely.

I grabbed the sketch again on Friday, and took more notice of the images. I try to just see shape when I look at a sketch, and I’m always tempted to turn things around. But this week, just getting something made was more important. So the flowers jumped out at me, and I ran through my collection looking for small floral stamps with coordinating punches – Petite Petals and Something To Say. I actually started from punches, and then looked for stamps to coordinate;  Petite Petals and Itty Bitty Accents Punch Pack.

In order to keep things simple I decided to stick to two colours (plus Whisper White) and used Pear Pizzazz card stock and ink, along with Early Espresso for depth.

Sale-a-bration on Sunday – Stamping with Irresistibly Yours!

Welcome to another Sale-a-bration on Sunday!

A few weeks ago I demonstrating watercolouring on the Irresistibly Yours Designer Series Paper, and well, today I thought I would try stamping on it!

Stampin' Up! UK Sale-a-bration SAB stamping irresistibly yours flowers

I selected the stripy paper from the Irresistibly Yours Designer Series Paper pack, and stamped on it using the Something Lacy background stamp from the Spring/Summer catalogue, in Marina Mist ink. I just love the effect of this, and think it would look lovely with the Dictionary stamp or Positively Chevron

The flower is a series of flowers stamped and punched from Petite Petals, Flower Shop and Petal Potpourri, punched with the coordinating punches. I spotted this layer flower on another blog (I wish I could remember who’s, if it was you please leave a comment below) and just thought it was such a good idea! and so pretty.

The sentiment is from Crazy About You!

Happy New Year!

This is likely to be a long post! be warned!

Firstly, Happy New Year! I hope its a good one!

Before we get into the project today, I am going to waffle about some important changes here at StampinByHannah!

– StampinByHannah Rewards programme – I have decided to offer shopping gifts (in addition to any rewards from Stampin’ Up!) please check out the StampinByHannah Rewards page in the menu bar at the top (its under Shop NOW!). In a nutshell, I will be offering free gifts depending on your total amount spent with me, this means that you can order several orders and they will ALL count towards your rewards. I will be offering a sort of points system (think of a large supermarket chain!), and I will automatically send you your gifts when you reach each amount – some do require you to make a choice, but I will email you with all the information when you reach each marker.

– Sale-a-bration – Sale-a-bration starts next week on the 6th of January! keep watching for more information about FREE products and extra shopping offers!

– Facebook – Go over to StampinByHannah on facebook to make sure you stay up to date with all my personal offer and events!

– Events! – I am now holding monthly classes – please check out the Events page for my complete calender! all classes are also available in a virtual format if you are unable to attend.

 

Right, I think that’s all the notices for now, lets get to the card for today!

Any guesses on my inspiration here!

Stampin' Up! UK Petite Petals Pootles Gorgeous Grunge

I love petite petals! LOVE LOVE LOVE! and this stamp set combined with the matching punch and Rich Razzleberry just called out to me this week!

There is a stamped layer of Gorgeous Grunge on the Whisper White cardstock, and the flowers are added on top.

There are actually three different flowers here, one stamped on Whisper white, one on Rich Razzleberry and one plan with sponge edges – all using Rich Razzleberry ink! All the flowers are added with glue dots, and the sponged ones are finished with Candy Dot centres!

A super effective, super quick make!

Fancy Fold Friday – Centre Step Card

Hello! Welcome to another Fancy Fold Friday!

This card was so complicated! I very very nearly gave up with it all together, and I’ve got to say that the DSP dimensions were pure luck! However, i decided I would share the basic structure of the card with you.

Stampin' Up! UK Centre Step Card

This card uses Pool Party Cardstock cut to 8 1/4″ by 5 3/4″. You’re going to need to grab that Stampin’ Trimmer for this one! Cut two lines in the card stock, the first at 1 3/4″ from 1 3/4 to 4 3/4″ and then at 4 1/4″ from 1 3/4 to 4 3/4″. This should give you two slits in your piece of card. Then score along the long edge at 2″, at the start of the two slits (between the two slits ONLY!), at 4 1/8″ either side of the cuts, and between the two slits at 5 3/4″ and at the end of the slits.

Stampin' Up! UK Centre Step Card

This card also features stamps from Blooming with Kindness and Petite Petals (along with the Petite Petal punch) and the Sentiment is punch using the Decorative Label Punch

Let me know in the comments below if you want a video tutorial on some of the fancy folds featured as part of Fancy Fold Friday!

See you again next week

Personalised Wedding Cards!

Back in wedding mode again today! These are some cards I made for a friend, as thank you cards for the special ladies involved in her wedding – flower girls, bridesmaids, and the mothers!

I was so exicted when I took the order for these! Her colour scheme was white, pale pink and grey, so I took that and ran with it!

Stampin' Up! UK Wedding Everything Eleanor

I used Whisper White, Smokey Slate and Pink Pirouette, along with Everything Eleanor (isnt it the most gorgeous set for weddings!) and the Back to Basic Alphabet to personalise the cards. The flowers are a mix of Petite Petals and Itty Bitty Accents, and they are finished off with the coordinating stamp and some Pearl Basic Jewels

Stampin' Up! UK Wedding Everything Eleanor

These bridesmaids cards use Smokey Slate as the card base, and the same stamp sets as before. Each card has the bridesmaids name on, handstamped using that Back to Basics Alphabet

Stampin' Up! UK Wedding Everything Eleanor

The last set of cards are the ones I made for the Flower girls. Once again they use Everything Eleanor and Back to Basics, but this time I decided to make them a little more fun, and used the bird stamp to add an extra litte something.

Each of the cards was also stamped with a coordinating stamp inside, and also on the envelope.

I love making cards with purpose like these. Having just finished my own wedding invitations though, I might have to have a little break from weddings…….. ok thats enough of a break! I do love a good wedding, dont you?

Bravo! for a super simple sunday!

Just a quick card for you today, using Melon Mambo (and not much else actually!)]

Stampin Up Melon Mambo Flower Shop Petie Petals

This card uses the Sweet Taffy DSP, in that gorgeous Melon Mambo – the brightest of bright pinks! to create this cute card. All the inking is done in Melon Mambo, using the Flower Shop and Petite Petals for the flowers, and A Dozen Thoughts for the sentiment! Its a super simple and quick card, great for a little girls birthday or when your a little short on time! The Flowers are stamped and then punched using the coordinating punches to create that professional look, and the sentiment is punched using the modern label punch. Easy!
