Thank you …… Kylie Bertucci!

Stampin' Up! UK Thank you card Crazy About You English Garden

Hello Everyone! I am so pleased to see you. This post is a little bit different from my usual postings, as I am taking part in Kylie Bertucci’s Blog Highlight! This is a totally cool concept whereby you can head over to Kylie’s blog HERE! and see heaps of really cool projects from Stampin’ Up!® Demonstrators all over the world and vote for your favourites. Awesome!

So, for those of you who have never been here before, Hi! I’m Hannah and I live in Stockton-on-Tees, in the North East of England. I was thinking about a good way of describing Stockton-on-Tees and struggled slightly, but some pretty cool things have be invented here including the Friction Match, it is the site of the first public railway, and where the second series of Benefit Street was filmed. I think that’s enough about where I live…..

Stampin' Up! UK Thank you card Crazy About You English GardenThis card is actually a CASE of myself! When I went to make a card for this totally cool blog hightlight thingy I really struggled to come up with anything (I’m really fighting with crafters block at the moment, I’m blaming working 44 hours a week as a nurse on a dementia unit, I’m just really tired!). So, I was in my craft room a few days ago, starting to panic about not having anything made yet, and I spotted THIS card from a blog hop a few months ago sat on the card display, and so I thought I would make it again!

I love getting inky, and so this technique is one of my favourites, there are actually four colours in ink blended on this this card; Pink Pirouette, Melon Mambo and Rose Red, and then I used Sahara Sand to tone the PINK down a little.

Stampin' Up! UK Crazy About You thank you card

The little pieces of Designer Series Paper are scraps from English Garden, layered along with a piece of the gorgeous white Metallic Glitter tape from Sale-a-bration.

I really hope you have enjoyed this project, don’t forget to pop over to Kylie’s blog to see everyone else’s awesome projects AND to vote!

See you again tomorrow for this weeks Simply Sketched Saturday Blog Hop (This week’s sketch is really cool!)

February Thank you cards…

Stampin' Up! Thank you Sale-a-bration

I love sending a ‘Thank you’ to my customers each month, I always send a card, but if you use the Code Club Code you might find even more goodies in your post! If you have ordered from me recently but haven’t received a card, it may be that you have selected ‘No Contact’ – in which case I am unable to contact you, even to say thanks. If you think this has happened or that I have missed you, please let me know and I will investigate.

Stampin' Up! UK Customer Thank you Cards

I’m loving Sale-a-bration this year, not only can you choose a free gift each time you spend £45, but you also get extra Stampin’ Rewards when you spend over £200 (or host a party with a spend of more than £200), However, the best deal is the Starter kit – get £160 of products of your choice, pay just £99 AND get at least 20% off future purchases! Awesome!

Stampin' Up! Thank you Sale-a-bration

So, these cards feature 2 of our Sale-a-bration gifts; the Windflower Fields Designer Series Paper and Perfect Pairings stamp set. I love this colour combination too, Blackberry Bliss and Old Olive – So pretty – made slightly prettier with the addition of some Gold Wink of Stella and a hint of Vellum!

Going Global Note Cards

Stampin' Up! UK Going Global

I have been loving the Going Global suite of items in this years Spring/Summer catalogue. The suite features a great Stamp set, Going Global, with great masculine, travel themed images and sentiments, while the coordinating Designer Series Paper is a great mix of textures, travel imagery and map prints. There is also a great embossing folder and card stock pack that coordinate too!

Stampin' Up! UK Going Global

A few weeks ago I shared this card with my email subscribers. I love sending my weekly emails to you all, I missed last week (the first week I’ve missed for months!) and for that I do apologise. I managed to schedule myself 7 shifts in 7 days and just couldn’t squeeze anything else in! But, I’ve sorted out my work schedule now and normal service should resume (but as a nurse I have no idea what is round the corner, thank goodness for scheduled posting!)

Anyway, so this card. I trying to work out a list of products that would equate to Sale-a-bration goodies – and seeing as you now only have 1 month left, I thought I would share this one with my blog subscribers too. Sale-a-bration is awesome this year, spend just £45 and get a free stamp set! (or one of the other Sale-a-bration goodies!) and it gets better because if you spend £90, you get to pick 2 free items!

So, you can get all the things to make this card AND get a free Sale-a-bration item! Awesome!

Stampin' Up! Going Global Sale-a-bration

Which means that you could get Perfect Pairings and replace the sentiment with ‘Happy Birthday’ or ‘Congrats!’. Or you could grab ‘What I Love’ and replace the sentiment with a floral image, or a bird or ice cream if you chose ‘Honeycomb Happiness’. I think I would choose one of the new Sale-a-bration products; ‘Pedal Pusher’ and fussy cut the bicycle to add to the travel theme.

What will you choose?

Awesomely Artistic Birthday

Stampin' Up! UK Awesomely Artistic Birthday

Ok, so as I type up this weeks blog post, I realise that every single card this week is a birthday card – maybe I have a problem?! – but surely we send more birthday cards than any other type of card, right? I hope so, I hope you are enjoying this week of birthday cards, and um, that you continue to come back and see me here at StampinByHannah

Did that sound like begging, because I didn’t mean it to. I just don’t want you to leave me, I like you….. ok, I’ll stop now.

Do you want to see a card?!

right, here we go

Stampin' Up! UK Awesomely Artistic Birthday

I made this card for my Aunt a few weeks ago (the middle of January!) using Awesomely Artistic and Perfect Pairings. I really enjoy inky techniques, and getting a bit messy – this card was so much fun to make!

There are several colours going on here, layers of Mint Macaron, Pool Party and Lost Lagoon, in both stamped and sponged form on the bottom and right hand side of the card. With splatters of Rich Razzleberry stamped in full and half strength to finish. I do wish I could explain my process here – I probably should make a video, because I can’t actually explain what I did, other than to say that I, the card and my desk were covered in ink by the time the card was complete!

Hope you are having a great day, and I’ll see you for another birthday card tomorrow!

Global Design Project #022 – What I love

Stampin' Up! UK What I Love Global Design Project #22

I am really trying to join in with the Global Design Project Challenges more often, however, I realised when I came to make this card (yesterday!) that I think it was a sketch challenge last time I took part, which means the last time I did one of their challenges was a month ago! oops!

oh well, I am trying! Its a super scary week for me this week as I start (yet another) new job. I’m hoping that this one is going to give me a little more time to devote to you, dearest blog readers and customers. I have got the next couple of weeks already written and scheduled (always a good idea when you know you’re going to be super busy!) but that doesn’t mean I’m not here, because I am, I’m still here plugging away at the keyboard and making heaps and heaps of cards!

Global Design Project Sketch 22

I realise that this sketch is kinda similar to the one I posted yesterday for the Simply Sketch Saturday Challenge, however I’m posting anyway!!!

Stampin' Up! UK What I Love Global Design Project #22

I also realised the other day that I haven’t really created very much with this years Sale-a-bration goodies. Last year I did Sale-a-bration on Sunday, and I haven’t really had time to do that this year, maybe I will start today (seeing as it’s Sunday) and do half of Sale-a-bration on Sunday. What do you think?

So, this is one of the Sale-a-bration goodies that you could earn for FREE when you spend £45 before the end of March! I’m loving this set, although I haven’t really stamped it. I actually think this is only the second time I’ve used it! What I love is a great set, and is one of those wonderful 3-step stamping sets. This time I’ve used Rich Razzleberry for the ‘outline’ stamp, and Rose Red for the solid stamps. Stampin' Up! UK What I love

The leaves are in Mossy Meadow, and were really tricky to fussy cut! I think I need more practice at fiddly fussy cutting because although things like those flowers I can cut without any really issue, those leaves were a pain!

Anyway, I did use a second stamp set on this card, those fabulous lines are from Gorgeous Grunge and are also stamped in Mossy Meadow. I’m still considering whether this card needs some Wink of Stella, I don’t know why I’m even really thinking about this – because every card is better with Wink of Stella!

Hello Flowering Fields

Stampin' Up! Flower Fields Sale-a-bration Card

I’m loving this years Sale-a-bration event. I really must day ‘Thanks’ to each and every person who has chosen to shop with me for the first time this year, I had a bumper January, and am hoping that this year is going to be awesome. I always send Thank You cards to those who choose to shop with me, with an extra special something for people who use my Code Club Code. If you haven’t received a card from me it may be that you have selected ‘No Contact’, if you think you have missed out, please drop me a message!

Stampin' Up! Flower Fields Sale-a-bration Card

This card uses one of my Sale-a-bration favourites, Flowering Fields. Stamped in Old Olive, Melon Mambo and Rich Razzleberry, with a piece of the coordinating Designer Series Paper Wildflower Fields.

The ‘Hello’ is from the Tin of Cards stamp set; I’m loving this font! I’m a sucker for a good font, and Stampin’ Up! are really knocking it out of the park with typefaces at the moment, just stunning. The Hello is stamped in Rich Razzleberry on a piece of Whisper White punched out with the 1 1/4″ circle punch. I’ve done a bit of punch layering (unusual for me) with a 1 3/8″ Old Olive circle and a Rich Razzleberry Scallop Circle in the 1 3/4″ size. Very pretty

Stampin' Up! Flowering Fields Hello

I added a piece of Whisper White Satin Ribbon and a bow to finish

Peek-a-boo to someone new …

Stampin' Up! UK New baby card

I am a clean and simple card maker at heart, and this card just sings Clean and Simple; saying that it uses two stamp sets and 3 colours of ink, but I think it also shows off white space at its very best

Stampin' Up! UK New baby card

This card uses Flowering Fields, one of this years FREE Sale-a-bration choices! Sale-a-bration is awesome, each time you spend £45 you get to choose another stamp set, Designer Series Paper or Project Life card collection from the Sale-a-bration brochure for FREE! This year there are 11 options for you, with 3 leaving us early on the 15th February (although there are some more stamps coming to replace them!). I am loving this Flowering Fields stamp set, its great for quick and simple stamping, or you can layer and layer with it to create something just awesome.

Here I’ve selected one of the lovely floral stamps and stamped it in Rose Red. I’m not sure how well you can see, but there is a Pink Pirouette butterfly stamped just to the right of the flower head too.

Stampin' Up! UK Suite Sayings baby card

The sentiment is taken from Suite Sayings, a great sentiment stamp set from this years Spring / Summer catalogue, stamped here in Tip Top Taupe (a great neutral) to finish a super simple new baby card. Saying that, I think this card would be great for many occasions, just switch out the sentiment
