On Thursday evening I shared 4 cards using the new In-Colours, but I couldn’t fit the 5th colour into my project (and I really did try!), but I promised that I would share a card using the 5th colour today to make up for it!
This is Peekaboo Peach, a gorgeous peachy/orange, that is a great addition to our existing orange colours
This card also features another new stamp set; Love and Affection. I love this stamp set so much that I am making it my Stamp of the Month in June! My Stamp of the Month Club is a totally new adventure for me, and I hope for you to. Each month I will be sharing my Stamp of the Month, and then also releasing the Stamp of the Month Club Online Class! Check back on Thursday to find out more and to sign up to class!
The flowers are stamped on Shimmery White Card stock in Memento Black and Embossed in clear before being watercoloured with Peekaboo Peach. I used several layers of ink, letting each layer dry before adding the next to create this awesome watery look. The leaves are stamped in Emerald Envy, I then drew over each one with a damp paint brush to create this watercoloured look.
I hope you’re ready to party this coming week, I have heaps of great projects and loads of news coming this week; the launch of the new Annual Catalogue, new classes and events, and a great give-away too! See you next week

I am not going to waffle too much today, I do plenty of that in the video tutorial. This card really is simple to create, it really just comes down to cutting and sticking in the right places!
Measurements:
Then once the image is dry, I stamped over them with another new stamp set; Playful Backgrounds. I’m loving this set too! 4 cool backgrounds that you can layer and extend. After stamping I also sponged more ink onto the corner of each piece, the ink that lands on the dry glue just wipes away as the glue acts as a resist, leaving the stamped critters white while the rest of the area is coloured.
Here is the complete set, as you can see I made a couple of boo-boos with the glue on the Ladybirds and the Hedgehogs, but they are still super cute! I will be sharing the other cards I made with the same technique next week after the arrive with my customers.
This card is super simple! You all know how much I love a super simple, quick and easy card. The sentiment could easily be swapped for a birthday, or maybe a going away type of theme, but I have used one from the same stamp set as the starfish – Picture Perfect
These are so super simple to do. I used the paint strokes stamp from Work of Art and inked it up, and stamped it four times down a piece of Whisper White card stock without re-inking it. This creates a great gradient effect, and is a great demonstration of the number of times you can generation stamp with Stampin’ Up! inks. I selected four colours: Island Indigo, So Saffron, Old Olive and Watermelon Wonder. The So Saffron didn’t work quite as well as the others, but I still love the card
These cards would make a great gift, and so I also created this awesome box to hold them and their envelopes too!
Its that time again, I am so excited to see what everyone has made based on the sketch this month! I have chosen to use some Designer Series Paper that is on the retiring list and will sadly leave us on 31st May, but I am sure that some of the girls will show me some sneaky peaks of new products, and I cannot wait!
Once I had created the card I realised that it wouldn’t fit in a standard envelope, and so grabbed another piece of the same Designer Series paper and my Envelope Punch Board to create custom envelope.
I completed the envelope with a belly band of Night of Navy card stock (26 x 5 cm, Scored on the long side at 11, 12.5, 23.5 and 25 cm). The sentiment is heat embossed in white, and the flowers and butterfly are taken from the Garden in Bloom Stamp set.
The ‘You’ is actually die cut 4 times, the first time from the stamped piece of Whisper White, and then 3 times in Early Espresso. It is super easy to layer these together using Tombow glue (although the silicone mat helps lots!). Before I die cut the You though I stamped onto the piece of Whisper White, first with the flowers from Birthday Blossoms in Perfect Plum, and then in Blushing Bride and Crumb Cake with Gorgeous Grunge.
