Crafty Challenge Blog Hop | Yeti to Party

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah today for a fabulous Crafty Challenge blog hop! This month we were challenged to create with an unusual colour combination; Basic Black, Garden Green, Fresh Freesia and Smokey Slate. I really love these colours together, but I would NEVER have come up with putting them together.

One of my favourite stamp sets from this years July-December Mini catalogue is Yeti to Party, and so I double challenged myself to come up with a card that used both the colour combination AND that fabulous Yeti! And I think I succeeded!

The yeti and presents are stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink, and then coloured with a combination of Stampin’ Blends and Stampin’ Up! Ink and a blender pen.

I am also LOVING this embossing folder; Whimsical Trees, which I have embossed in Basic White and then added some Fresh Freesia ink over the top with a Blending Brush.

Inspire.Create.Challenge #126 | Fond of Autumn

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah for this week’s Inspire.Create.Challenge. This time its a fabulous sketch, hop over to the Inspire.Create blog to see the sketch and to add your own creations to our link up too.

The Fond of Autumn stamp set landed in my craft room this week, and this is the first thing I’ve made with it. The background uses one of the coordinating dies, and its so pretty!

The main panel is stamped in Memento Black ink, and then coloured with Watercolour Pencils, but I haven’t actually added any water too it so it’s maintained it hand-coloured, soft effect.

This week we had some Ink Blending fun with Cottage Rose, which is one of the bundles that Stampin’ Up! are using for their World Cardmaking Day Event on 1st October. I’ll share more about it as we get closer, but it is totally FREE to join in with… and I will be doing something that weekend too. (I haven’t worked out quite what yet, because the time of the actually event I will be knee deep in Soft Play Kids Birthday Party Fun!).

Inspire.Create.Challenge #125 | Spooky Beauty of Friendship

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah for this week’s Inspire.Create.Challenge! This time we have a Spooky theme… time to prep for Halloween maybe?

I don’t really “Do” Halloween (I have no idea why I set this challenge… because I really had to think a very long way out of the box!)… I’ve made a sort of Spooky Thank you card using Beauty of Friendship and the Watercolour Shapes stamp sets from Stampin’ Up!

The tree and the sentiment are from Beauty of Friendship, while that big beautiful Pumpkin Pie circle is from Watercolour Shapes.

In order to add to the ‘spooky’ effect I’ve wrapped a piece of Vellum over one side (a great way to hide the adhesive)… and I really love the effect!

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah… I am hoping to brighten your Monday this week with a replay of last nights Facebook Live video!

Inspire.Create.Challenge #124 | Colour with Natures Prints from Stampin’ Up!

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah for this weeks Inspire.Create.Challenge. This week we have a fabulous Colour Combination for you. Pop over to the Inspire.Create blog to check out the colours, see the rest of the Design Teams projects and add your own makes too!

I thought I would use the Nature’s Prints bundle for this card… I absolutely adore that wreath die, its so pretty and delicate. Here I added swatches of colour onto Fluid 100 Watercolour Paper and then die cut the wreath after.

The green’s in the colour combination are added at the bottom, with the fern stamps… and a bit of Garden Green ink splatter using a Stampin’ Write Marker.

Completed with a heat embossed sentiment on a Stitched rectangle die cut from Crumb Cake card stock, and a bow of Linen Thread.
