I have a few fun Christmas-y things coming this month… Yesterday I launched my Autumn Winter Paper Shares, I would really encourage you to check them out…. but there is a Designer Series Paper that’s not featured in my shares, and actually it’s not even in the catalogue! Dashing Along is a fun, classic mix of festive patterns (and some awesome type-print!) that will really kick start you Christmas projects AND it coordinates with one of the fabulous bundles that is in the new catalogue that launches on Wednesday!

Dashing Along is EXCLUSIVELY available for FREE with a qualifying order

What is a qualifying order? ANY order, or Party, that spends over £200. This could be you ordering, or maybe you want to host a party this month, or maybe you and your crafty friends want to put in a group order…. the choice is yours.

The Dashing Along Designer Series Paper is automatically added to your order once you hit that magic £200 number. PLUS you will get at least £20 of Stampin’ Rewards AND you are added into my Code Club too!

How to make a Twist Top Box using Stampin’ Up! products

How to make a Twist Top Box using Stampin' Up! Card stock

StampinByHannah How to make a Twist Top Box using Stampin’ Up! products

I do love a fun box…. and I think this one is particularly good! There are loads of things that you could use if for; candles, a mini bath bomb, chocolate, jewellery…. and I’m sure you’ll think of something I haven’t!

I was inspired by a swap I received from the lovely Jillian probably about a year ago. Jillian’s version was a little smaller and was perfect for holding a trio of tealights, but I wanted something a little bigger…

Measurements:

Card stock: 8-1/4 x 6″ (21 x 15 cm)

Score on the long side at 2, 4, 6, and 8″ (5, 10, 15 and 20 cm)

Score on the short side at 2 and 4″ (5 and 10 cm)

Designer Series Paper: 4 pieces 1-3/4 x 1-3/4″ (4.5 x 4.5 cm)

What will you put in this cute Twist Top Box?

Project Share Project | Working with a tricky Colour Combination…

Bright and Fun Hot Air Balloon Birthday Card using Stampin' Up! Products by Jill Chapman

StampinByHannah Project Share Project Working with a tricky Colour Combination…

Last weekend some of the Project Share Crew took part in a Blog Hop with a particularly tricky colour combination… I love sharing projects like this, being able to see so many different ways to use the same colours or products, so fun!

Colour Combination:

Bermuda Bay

Daffodil Delight

Merry Merlot

You can find my project using these colours HERE, and I would LOVE you to share your projects made using this combination over on my Facebook Page.

Sally Shaw

I love how Sally took the colours and saw a Christmas Theme… although I’ve used this stamp set for all year round occasions (I used it last year for my Mum’s Birthday Card).

Verity Pursglove

Verity has used the fun Artisan Textures Stamp Set to create this fun Thank You Card…

Jill Chapman

I love how Jill has used the Hot Air Balloon from the Up and Away Thinlits to create this fabulously Simple Birthday Card

Best Route Birthday Card

Create a fun layered mans birthday card using Best Route from Stampin' Up!

StampinByHannah Best Route Birthday Card

Today is my youngest Brother-in-Law’s birthday, he’s 17, and so cards aren’t really his thing… however, they are mine, and so he gets one anyway!

Cards for guys are always a little tricky, however, Stampin’ Up! have made it a whole lot easier with this Designer Series Paper. Best Route is a fun mix of bold colours and generic patterns, all with the hint of a travel theme…. perfect for your Road Trip Scrapbook Album, or some fun cards!

I thought I would have some fun with colour on this one… the entire front is Gray Granite Designer Series Paper while the card base itself is Mango Melody. Usually I made tent fold cards, but they don’t stand very well on my Mother-in-laws slippy furniture, so I went for a more traditional book fold style for this card.

The secret to a good guy card is simple details… Here I’ve created layers using different pieces of the Best Route Designer Series Paper, added a length of ribbon, the sentiment on a Stitched Circle die cut, a trio of sequins and a cute mini paperclip from the Share What You Love Embellishment kit to finish.

The stamping is taken from the Picture Perfect Birthday Stamp Set; a fun mix of birthday images and sentiments that work really well for guys birthdays.

I couldn’t not add something to the inside… so I mirrored the Designer Series Paper layers and added a second birthday sentiment in Blueberry Bushel.

Make It Monday | Blended Seasons and Watercolour Pencils

Make it monday Watercolour Pencils and Blended Seasons using Stampin' Up! products

StampinByHannah Make It Monday Blended Seasons and Watercolour Pencils

I’ve been sharing a whole heap of projects using the fabulous August Exclusive Stamp Set; Blended Seasons this month…. you can find heaps of Blended Season Inspiration over on my dedicated Pinterest Board, as well as in my Facebook Live video from the beginning of the month.

I’ve had masses of fun with this stamp set, particularly using the August Exclusive Watercolour Pencils… Today’s video shows several ways to use the Stampin’ Up! Watercolour Pencils and a couple of different effects you can create with them too!

I do have some top tips for using Watercolour Pencils:

add pencil to areas where shadows would naturally appear
blend out the pencil using a damp paint brush or aqua painter
use a Wink of Stella Brush Pen to complete the blending and add some sparkle!
You could also use a Blender Pen to blend out the colour

The Watercolour Pencils Assortment 2 and Blended Seasons stamp and die bundle both retire on the 31st August… so grab them today before they go forever!

InspireINK Blog Hop | Smiling with Eastern Beauty

An eastern inspired card using Eastern Beauty from Stampin' Up!

StampinByHannah InspireINK Blog Hop Smiling with Eastern Beauty

Welcome to this month’s InspireINK Blog hop! This month the fabulous Lisa Emslie set us a tricky colour combination… I cannot wait to hop around with you and see what the other ladies have made. For now though, shall we check out my card? oh, and that colour combination!

Bermuda Bay

Daffodil Delight

Merry Merlot

I spent a LONG time staring at these colours before coming up with anything at all. But, I did settle on using the Eastern Beauty stamp set, and coordinating Eastern Medallion Thinlits. They just seemed to fit together

The main focus of this card is that pretty Medallion in Merry Merlot Card Stock. The detail has been embossed into the card stock using the Eastern Medallion Thinlits and the Stampin’ Up! Embossing Mats, and the Big Shot. I am loving the Embossing mats, you can use them to create a whole heap of different effects. I have made a video about how this works before, but here is the sandwich you need to use:

Big Shot Embossing Mat Sandwich:

Stampin’ Up! Big Shot Platform
Clear Cutting Plate
Dies laid with the cutting edge up
Card stock
the THIN blue embossing mat
White impressions plate

Because you need the dies laid with the cutting edge up, I find that the easiest way to do this is to place your dies on your card stock as you would usually and then use Washi tape to secure them before turning the whole lot over. This way, you know (particularly if your lining up with some stamping) that your embossing is going to be in the right place.

It’s also worth noting that the Eastern Medallion dies don’t actually cut the medallion from the card stock, and that you need the coorinating Layering Circles Dies to do that bit.

The card is completed with a hint of Bermuda Bay Stamping, the sentiment in Daffodil Delight and some accents of Gold Foil.

I did think that the medallion was a little dark, so I added some Whisper White Ink Splatter. I Love the effect!

Origami Pen Holder using Designer Series Paper

no glue pot covers using patterned paper from Stampin' Up!

StampinByHannah Origami Pen Holder using Designer Series Paper

I’m been on a storage kick recently… with my Embellishment holders, Divided Boxes and Memories and More Storage! And today that continues, with these fun Pen Holders made from a single piece of Designer Series Paper and no glue! How cool!

I found these during a Pinterest trawl, when I found THIS blog post from Gathering Beauty.

These are super easy to put together, particularly if you use a thinner paper like these ones from the Tea Room Speciality Designer Series Paper pack, or the Frosted Florals from the upcoming Autumn Winter Catalogue.

The ones I’m sharing today use US Letter sized paper, 8-1/2 x 11″ but you can totally use A4 sized paper too, you just get a different sized box at the end! If you use A4 you end up with a more rectangular box, rather than these which are square. Either way though they are going to look fab on your desk holding pens, or on your bed side table holding a tiny plant…. what else could you use these for?

Instructions:

Lay your paper in front of you, with the long edge at the top. Fold the paper in half and open it out again.
Fold in both sides to meet the centre fold, and open back out again.
Next, fold the paper back in half along the centre line and ensure that the folded edge is on the right.
Fold the bottom right corner up to meet the centre line, creating a triangle. Repeat on the top right corner
Take the top layer of paper on the left side, and fold the bottom left corner to meet the centre line to make a triangle. Repeat on the top left.
Then, fold the bottom two triangle up, creating a crease at the along the bottom of the triangles. Repeat this on the top triangles. Open back out and rotate so that your paper now looks like the shape of a house.
Fold the bottom flap up, so that the triangle meet.
Lift this new layer to reveal a pocket. Then, continue to pull to form the back and 2 sides of your box. You might need to re-enforce your creases here to help form your box.
Position your box with the back facing you. There should be 3 squares facing away from you.
Take the right hand square and bring the two scored lines together to form a triangle. Repeat on the left.
Tuck these triangles into the triangular pockets on the sides of your box.

Check out the video to see how quickly these come together.
