2022 July – December Mini Catalogue Blog Hop | Splendid Day

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah! I am SO excited to start sharing some of the goodies from the July-December mini catalogue with you all… and what a better way to kick of the catalogue that with a blog hop! I have a heap of blog events coming this month, giving you LOTS of inspiration, so do keep watching for more….

Today thought, I wanted to share something that’s not particularly festive… I know that we all think of Christmas when it comes to the “Autumn-Winter” catalogue, but now that it starts in middle of summer, Stampin’ Up! have changed things a bit and we have a beautiful suite that really lends itself to weddings!

If you’ve seen my Instagram recently, you’ll know I’m a bit obsessed with this background stamp! It’s called Ray of Light and its actually in the Annual catalogue, but it works so well with so many different stamp sets, that I couldn’t help but pair it with Splendid Day for a fun Celebration card.

This card is monotone… a look I really LOVE… in Basic White and Soft Sea Foam. So pretty!

Check out the Supply List for this card HERE!

How I start using a Suite | Stampin’ Up! Abigail Rose

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah today… usually at this time on a Wednesday evening (19:30 UK time) I am going Live either on YouTube or Facebook. However, this week I am right at the end of a course I’ve been studying for for the past 3 years, and I’m spending all my spare moments getting my portfolio ready for submission. So, rather than do a Live this week, I have a pre-recorded video instead. I will be back next Wednesday, Live on my Facebook page with some fun ideas using some of the Sale-a-bration goodies…. but for now, here is my first look at the Abigail Rose suite…

When I first pull out brand new products, I will quite often turn to the Stampin’ Up! catalogue for inspiration. This card is inspired by one of the cards on the suite page in the catalogue. BUT I have made it my own by changing some of the layers and colours. This isn’t my usual style of card, but I really love it!

International Blog Highlight | Thanks Biggest Wish

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah today for Kylie’s International Blog Highlight. I would LOVE it if you would pop over to Kylie’s blog and vote for this card to take part in the July Blog Hop !

I have been having heaps of fun recently with the Rays of Light background stamp. This is certainly one of the gems in this years Annual Catalogue, an perfect for making a simple card very special. Here I inked it in Pale Papaya and then used a Blending Brush to add some Calypso Coral to the outside edges to create a sort of ombre effect.

Simple Stamping Thank you card using Biggest Wish from Stampin' Up! with StampinByHannah

The ‘Thanks’ is stamped from Biggest Wish (one of my favourite sentiment sets of the moment!), and is in Pacific Point. I don’t use this colour often, but I think it really works with these orange tones on the rest of this card. The stamps in Biggest Wish are super easy to fussy cut, and I think it just adds an extra something to this #simplestamping card!

I finished this one with a trio of the new Fine Sparkle Adhesive-backed Gems in Calypso Coral.

You can find the Supply List for this card HERE, and don’t forget to pop over to Kylie’s Blog to vote!

Share it Sunday | Biggest Wishes Lovely You

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah… I am a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in the UK, and while I am well versed in the art of a Blog Hop, this is the first time I have joined in with Share it Sunday! (I am very excited!)

I’ve tried to keep my card fairly simple today, although it does you two stamp sets and 7 ink pads! I’ve had the Biggest Wish stamp set in my stash for a while, but have never used it… and this felt like the perfect opportunity. I’ve paired it with one of my old favourites; Lovely You, and new favourites; the 2022-2024 In Colours!

Handstamped Happy Birthday card using Biggest Wish and Lovely You from Stampin' Up! with StampinByHannah

The Birthday stamp went down first (with the help of my trusty Stamparatus to get it good and Black!), and then I added all those pretty leaves and florals using the In Colours and Lovely You. I almost left it at that, with the fussy cut HAPPY. But it just didn’t feel quite right!

So, the background stamping is the same Lovely You stamp set, stamped in Gray Granite stamped off once… and then a trio of the 2022-2024 In-Colour Matte Decorative Dots!

Thank you so much for stopping by StampinByHannah today, and I hope you enjoy the rest of the Hop!

InspireINK | Watercoloured Hues of Happiness

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah for this month’s InspireINK Blog Hop! I love joining in with the ladies at InspireINK, and this month I got to set the challenge!

I know the ladies weren’t all that impressed with my bright and bold choice! So, I’m quite looking forward to hopping later to see what everyone has created!

I’ve been playing with Hues of Happiness a fair bit this past month, and so it was out of my desk when I came to make my card for this months Blog Hop. I’ve also been struggling with my anxiety recently, and I thought this a great set to do some relaxing watercolour with…. so I combined all of that, and this card was born!

All the elements of this card have been watercoloured. The leaves are in Parakeet Party with a layer of Wink of Stella for some added sparkle, and the flowers are watercoloured in Poppy Parade. I used some re-inker to get some really dark colour so its a little more dramatic. The background is Orchid Oasis… and can you spot the splatter of Crushed Curry?

Do hop around the rest of the hop using the buttons below, and I hope to see you again here soon!

Inspire.Create.Challenge #119 | Botanical Layers and In Colours

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah this weekend. This week’s Inspire.Create.Challenge is a colour combination… featuring the new 2022-2024 In Colours.

I LOVE these 5 colours, they are so bright and fun, and they work really well together too. Here I’ve used all 5 colours, and paired them with the fabulous Botanical Layers Bundle which is a Stamp and Vellum combination. I have a YouTube live planned with this one, because I think it’s so unusual, but really lovely to work with.

Thinking of You using Botanical Layers from Stampin' Up! with StampinByHannah

This card has a Starry Sky card base, with a Basic White layer which I have added all 5 of those In Colours to using a Blending Brush. Then a layer of the Lovely Layers Vellum from that Botanical Layers bundle, which I have added some extra stamping to using the Botanical Layers Stamp set and some embossing power.

The sentiment is from the stamp stamp set, and is layered with a piece of the In Colour Glimmer Paper.

Head over to the Inspire.Create blog to see the rest of the Design Team’s creations and to add your own In Colour makes too!

Thank You Inspired Thoughts | International Blog Highlight

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah today for Kylie’s International Blog Highlights. As usual the theme is ‘Thank You’ and there are heaps of demonstrators taking part. Hop over to Kylie’s blog to see them all and vote for your favourites.

Floral Thank you card using Inspired Thoughts and Perfectly Pencilled from Stampin' Up! with StampinByHannah

I shared this card on Instagram as a Reel on Saturday, but thought it needed a place on the blog too! It is actually inspired by a card in the new Annual Catalogue, but I’ve altered the colours and background stamping.

The floral panel uses the Perfectly Pencilled Designer Series Paper, which is Black and White, and then I’ve added colour with Stampin’ Blends in Parakeet Party, Orchid Oasis and Starry Sky. The background is stamped using the little round stamp from Hello Beautiful.
