Quick and Easy Christmas Card using Kindest Gnomes from Stampin’ Up!

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah for a quick and easy Christmas card idea. Sunday night is usually Facebook Live night… but this week I chose to prioritise spending an evening with my husband (it doesn’t happen often) and so I pre-recorded this weeks video instead.

This week I thought we could have a play with the Gnome dies from the Kindest Gnomes bundle. These cute a very cute ‘no stamp required’ Gnome. Here I’ve used Night of Navy and Basic White card stock along with a scrap of the Story Book Gnomes Designer Series Paper.

I just cannot get enough of the Stylish Shapes dies… the stitched edge detail one both the inner and outer edges just makes me happy. These basically have a permanent spot out on my desk… I hardly ever actually put them away, and I feel like I use them on just about every card!

Inspire.Create.Challenge #129 | Christmas Season

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah this week… this week’s Inspire.Create.Challenge is a theme… and we are going Festive! I LOVE making Christmas cards, but am not great at cards that you can mass produce. So, I thought I would make something simple that you could easily make heaps of!

This card uses the Christmas Season and Christmas to Remember stamp sets, and the following colours; Crumb Cake, Early Espresso, Mossy Meadow, Pear Pizzazz, Real Red and Shaded Spruce.

The card base is Early Espresso with a layer of Crumb Cake before I added that stamped piece of Basic White.

Crafty Challenge Blog Hop | Hues of Happiness

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah for this months Crafty Challenge Blog Hop! This months Challenge was a sketch, which I haven’t played with all that much to be honest. I knew I wanted to use Designer Series Paper for the stripes, but then took a little while to pick a suite…. I am so happy that I settled on Hues of Happiness, I LOVE this suite!

Hues of Happiness Thank you card using Stampin' Up! products with StampinByHannah

The stripes of Designer Series Paper are layered onto a panel of Basic White card stock, which I have die cut using the Stylish Shapes dies for that stitched edge and then popped up on a heap of Dimensionals. The layer behind is stamped with the coordinating Happiness Abounds stamp set in Night of Navy Ink.

The sentiment uses the Amazing Thanks dies and is cut from Basic White and Bermuda Bay card stock. And the card is finished with a trio of Glossy Dots.

Share It Sunday | Warm Welcome Stepped Up Card

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah. When it came to making a card for this Sunday’s blog hop, I was looking through the complete mess on my desk, and spotted THESE CARDS that I made as part of last Sunday’s Facebook Live, and thought this would be a great opportunity to created a ‘Stepped Up’ version.

Rainbow stamping with Warm Welcome from Stampin' Up! with StampinByHannah

This card uses the Warm Welcome bundle, and this time I have added some Stylish Shapes die cuts, vellum, and linen thread. The original version of this card had the presents coloured with blends, but this time I have used Watercolour Pencils on Sahara Sand card stock for a softer look.

Global Design Project #366 | Merry Christmas Storybook Gnomes

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah today. I have been inspired by the Global Design Project again this week, and created this card on YouTube Live last night. I really love the Storybook Gnome suite from Stampin’ Up! and thought it would be great with the GDP sketch this week.

I pulled a few different sheets of the Designer Series Paper before I settled on this one. The paper in this suite is really stunning, and the fact that lots of it can be die cut with the coordinating dies really makes this paper special.

Rainbow stamping with Warm Welcome from Stampin’ Up!

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah today for a look at the replay of last nights Facebook Live video. I had SO much fun making these two cards this week. I was inspired by THIS CARD by Emma Goddard, and used the Warm Welcome stamp set.

I am really enjoying using the little stamps in this stamp set… and I can’t create anything at the moment without reaching for the Blends pens

Inspire.Create.Challenge #128 | A Spooky Colour Combination…

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah today for another Inspire.Create.Challenge. This week is a fun colour combination, perfect for October crafting; Basic Black, Basic Gray, Gorgeous Grape and Pumpkin Pie.

I’m not into Halloween, its not something that has ever been a part of my autumn (This is changing now I have two small children, and my husband is a BIG fan!)… and so I haven’t gone down the Halloween route with this colour combination, rather sticking to something a bit more floral.

This card uses the Artistically Inked stamp set (which I LOVE, but haven’t had off the shelf for ages!), for all of the stamped elements.

The card is finished with a trio of Classic Matte Dots.

Don’t forget to add your own creations to the link up over on Inspire.Create.

Global Design Project #365 | ’tis the season to be Jolly!

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah today. Today’s project was last night’s YouTube Live, and is based around the Global Design Project Colour challenge for this week, using Soft Succulent, Sweet Sorbet and Petal Pink.

I absolutely LOVE the Jingle Jingle Jingle stamp set… that line image sentiment is just SO fun! Here I stamped it twice, so that I could have a multi-coloured version. Check out the video for more details
