Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah for today’s Sweet Treats Blog Hop. I almost made a card using the Share a Milkshake bundle for this, but then the Watercolour Melon stamp set caught my eye instead.
This stamp set is currently free with a £45 order during Sale-a-bration. Here I’ve used Poppy Parade, Old Olive and Memento Black, this stamp
Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah for another Inspire.Create.Challenge. This time we have a fabulous challenge inspired by the new January-April catalogue or Sale-a-bration.
I haven’t discussed this years Sale-a-bration yet. This fabulous offer lasts from now until the end of February and gives you a free gift (of your choice!) every time you spend £45. There are some items which require a £90 spend, and today’s project uses one of those.
This is Softly Sophisticated bundle; which includes a stamp set and an embossing folder. This stamp set utilises one of my favourite techniques; 2-step stamping.
Here I’ve stamped the leaves in Old Olive, before adding the flowers in Crushed Curry. The sentiment is then heat embossed in black over the top.
The embossing folder is so pretty, here I ink blended the Basic White card stock using Lemon Lolly before running it through the Stampin’ Emboss Machine with the embossing folder.

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah, to 2024 and to the January-April Mini Catalogue Blog Hop!
Things are pretty exciting around here at the moment, lots of changes coming in 2024. I have to admit I had written a massive plan for the year, with classes and events and all sorts. But I have some pretty massive personal goals this year, and so (while I will still be posting and sharing) I have some other things happening in the background which mean that I’m not going to be going at things all guns blazing. Saying all of that, Today is the launch of the new Mini Catalogue, and I couldn’t pass that by without participating in this blog hop!
I made this card in a bit of a hurry, I needed an urgent Congratulations card for my father in law last week and turned to the pages of the new Mini Catalogue as inspiration.
This is part of the Natures Sweetness Suite (page 41-41) and I am completely in love with this Designer Series Paper! It’s a very simple neutral colour palette and some pretty florals, here I’ve used Pebbled Path and a hint of Petal Pink.

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah for another Global Design Project idea. This week their challenge is a sketch. When I saw this on Monday I jumped onto Facebook Live and made this card. I would LOVE to share the video, but the Facebook pixies are being a bit naughty and I appear to have some sort of tech issue… which I have no idea how to solve! So, I will aim to re-record the video over the next couple of days.
The Beautifully Happy stamp set is currently available for FREE when you spend £90 during Sale-a-bration!

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah for today’s Valentines Blog hop. In the UK we tend to only send a single Valentines card to our partner… and this might be an option for the card I send my husband this year.
I’ve used the Thanks a Bunch stamp set, which is currently FREE as part of Sale-a-bration. I wasn’t sure about Carrots as a theme for stamps when I first saw it… but its a super fun set to stamp! Here I’ve stamped the carrots in So Saffron and Crushed Curry, Pumpkin Pie and Calypso Coral, but I’ve seen some fabulous purple carrots on Social Media too!
The background is something I’ve been meaning to try for ages. Such a simple idea, lines drawn with a Stampin’ Blend pen. I’ve used Light Old Olive for these (and I used a ruler), but I think I’d go darker and bolder next time.

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah for this week’s Facebook Live Replay. This week I have 3 super quick and easy cards for you… all using the Dainty Flowers Designer Series Paper which is currently available for FREE with a £45 order as part of Sale-a-bration!
The Dainty Flowers Designer Series Paper coordinates with the Dainty Delight Bundle in the new Mini Catalogue. However, I have paired it with the Something Fancy bundle instead. I couldn’t resist the label dies… and those fonts!

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah for a fabulous Inspiration challenge for Inspire.Create.Challenge. The original card was made by my fabulous friend Verity, and featured a circle… but you know what I’m like and a I have to change things around, so I’ve opted for a square instead!
This is the ‘Floating paper’ technique, and you would usually cut your strips of paper and adhere them to a piece of Window Sheet or Vellum…. but here, I’ve gone a bit off-piste and popped them straight onto the card front with Dimensionals!
The paper here is actually a FREEBIE from Sale-a-bration, and it coordinates with the On the Farm stamp set and dies which I have also used here… not a farm animal in sight!
Hop over to Inspire.Create to see the inspiration card and check out what the rest of the Design Team have been up to!

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah! This month’s Technique is Heat Embossing… probably something I do on about 80% of my projects, I just LOVE it! Nothing better that a sentiment heat embossed in White on a piece of Basic Black card stock! But, I haven’t done that today.
This card is a bit special, as I made it for my aunt’s 70th birthday this month (I know she wont see this… so I’m not worried about sharing before the big day!). I had a lot of fun watercolouring this image. It’s from the brand new Beautifully Happy stamp set which is FREE with a £90 order during Sale-a-bration which starts on Thursday.
Both the image and the sentiment are heat embossed in Gold. This is one of my watercolour top tips actually, to heat emboss the image because it sort of keeps the ink where you want it, and makes watercolour a bit easier.
The flower is coloured with Pear Pizzazz, Blushing Bride, Flirty Flamingo and Orchid Oasis. I wasn’t sure when I pulled the colours off my shelf, but now I really like it.
The frame is from Framed Florets, and the background is stamped in Pear Pizzazz onto Pear Pizzazz card stock using one of the more solid stamps from the set.

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah today, for a really fun blog hop celebrating all things pride! When I first signed up to do this hop, my first thought was rainbows… but then Rainbows of Happiness retired at the end of May… and so I had a bit of a re-think.
I stuck with the rainbow idea though! I probably need to move the Ray of Light stamp away from my desk, feels like I’m using it on every project at the moment, but it was just too perfect not to use it for this one. I added the rainbow colours to the stamp on at a time using a Blending Brush, and stamped it using my Stamparatus. It has got a bit muddy… but I think it still works. What do you think?
I kept my Stamparatus out to stamp the sentiment from Amazing Phrasing, to make sure it was super black, and finished the card with a trio of black Classic Matte Dots!
