Inspire.Create.Challenge 146 | Let’s Go Shopping…

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah for another fabulous Inspire.Create.Challenge. This week we have a fun inspiration piece to work from, and while the original was a Fancy Fold, I’ve converted it into a standard card instead.

The Let’s Go Shopping bundle is one of my current fav’s and I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to use it again. Here, the background card and Designer Series Paper are in Gray Granite, and so all the elements are stamped in the same colour. The shop front was then coloured using Stampin’ Blends and the card finished with a scattering of sequins.

Crafty Challenge Blog Hop | Colour Combination with Textured Floral from Stampin’ Up!

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah for this month’s Crafty Challenge blog hop. This month Stefanie set us a colour combination, from a picture. I’ve had to make a couple of edits due to available colours.

So, Pale Papaya became Petal Pink and Pacific Point became Blueberry Bushel. Also, I don’t own a Cajun Craze ink pad (its just a colour I am all that keen on, and I only buy what I love!), so I switched it for Pecan Pie.

This is the first card I have made with the Textured Floral stamp set, and so I have used one of the cards from the catalogue as inspiration, mostly for the layout of the floral spray. The sentiment is stamped in Blueberry Bushel onto a piece of Basic White, and die cut using one of the Something Fancy dies. Before I took the die cut out of the die, I added a hint of Tahitian Tide ink with a Blending Brush.

Inspire.Create.Challenge #145 | Cute Childs Birthday card using Zany Zoo

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah for this week’s Inspire.Create.Challenge. This time, Jo has challenged us to make a card for a baby or child. Now, I have two very small children (4 and 2) and so this should have been easy… except that I don’t really make cards for my kids, so the only stamp set that I have that is child-like is Zany Zoo.

Kept it fairly simple, kids don’t want the fuss of an overly layered card. However, I have got a video… you can check that out below. Please do pop over to my YouTube though and subscribe as I do post content over there that doesn’t always find its way here!

You can find the shopping list for this project HERE… and while I’m thinking about it, this Designer Series Paper is 15% off until the end of June!

InspireINK | Thank you with Just My Type

InspirInk Blog Hop Header Stampin' Up! team blog hop

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah and to this month’s InspireINK blog hop. This month we have a fabulous sketch to create with. My card is basically the sketch… yes, for once I haven’t messed about with it too much!

The Just My Type stamp set arrived in my craft room this week, and I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to use it on this card. Here I’ve paired it with the Glorious Gingham Designer Series Paper and Berry Burst ink and card stock.

Pride Blog Hop | Artistically Inked Rainbow

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah and to the Crafty Collaborations Pride Blog Hop for 2023. I absolutely LOVE a rainbow, and so couldn’t pass up the opportunity to make a rainbow project.

Pride means different things to different people, for me its about everyone being welcome, and I hope that everyone feels welcome here.

Saying this, I have used a rainbow of colours I haven’t used before on this card! I was inspired by a post from Helen Read at AllThingsStampy on Instagram, and she suggested a rainbow of Poppy Parade, Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight, Shaded Spruce, Blueberry Bushel and Berry Burst.

Today’s rainbow uses the Artistically Inked stamp set (and oldie but a goodie in my collection!) and the coordinating Artistic dies.

Inspire.Create.Challenge 144 | Colour Combination with In The Moment…

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah, This past 2 weeks has been a little crazy, particularly as I have worked 7 out of 8 days in my day job, which has left me with zero opportunity to craft, or even think about crafting. So, this week’s Inspire.Create.Challenge was a fabulous way for me to kick start my creative flow again. This week we have a three colour combination; of your favourite colours! Mine are Wild Wheat, Moody Mauve and Pool Party.

My stamp collection is a little depleted at the moment following the end of the last Annual Catalogue, but its given me the chance to use some oldie but goldies! This is In The Moment, and I don’t think I had ever inked this particular stamp before.

Stamped with Memento, and the coloured with Stampin’ Blends. I added some ink splatter to the background with a Stampin’ Blend in Dark Moody Mauve too.

Global Design Project #396 | Waves of Inspiration…

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah… I know this post is going out kind of late on a Friday night, but this is the first opportunity I have had in even think about crafting in the last 10 days. But, I wanted to get this card out this evening… so here we are! While I’m thinking about it, my next job is to write tomorrow’s email, if you don’t get my emails already, you can add yourself to my list HERE.

This card is inspired by a card from the fabulous Krista Frattin. You can find the original on the Global Design Project blog post.

I’ve used the Waves of Inspiration stamp set, and coordinating Waves dies, but wave very inspired by Krista’s card layout and colour combination.
