Global Design Project #392 | Watercolour with Natures Prints

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah for my take on this week’s Global Design Project CASE the Designer Challenge. Check out the inspiration card HERE. I was inspired by the watercolour rectangle and black stamping for this card.

This card uses the Natures Prints stamp set; did you know this stamp set has a splatter stamp? I used it to create the background panel and to add some extra detail on the watercolour piece.

Speaking of the watercolour, this is Moody Mauve and Wild Wheat; 2 of the brand new In-Colours! So pretty.

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah today for a fun blog hop; sharing lots of ideas using goodies from the New Annual Catalogue. At the bottom of this post you’ll find a list of other blogs to visit today, please do check them out and leave some comment love on your trip!

This card uses the brand new suite; Zany Zoo! I absolutely LOVE this suite, its cute and funny, and the Designer Series Paper is versatile and adorable! The Designer Series Paper has cute critters on one side, and fun black and white prints on the other.

Global Design Project #391 | Rain or Shine with Rays of Light

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah! I am loving the sunny weather we have been having in the UK this week, its so nice to see some blue sky. This week’s Global Design Project theme is Rain or Shine, and so inspired by our sunshine, I picked the Shine idea.

Yellow isn’t a colour I use all that often, but here I’ve used TWO! The card base and flower are Crushed Curry, while the sunburst is in Daffodil Delight. I absolutely adore this background stamp; Rays of Light, and have used it on a project already this week, here I’ve paired it with the Love for you bundle to create this fun card.

Crafty Challenge Blog Hop | Masking with Rays of Light

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah for this month’s Crafty Challenge Blog Hop. This month we had 5 different options, and I’ll admit at this point that I didn’t hit them all! We had In Colours, Masking, For You, 3×3 and Designer Series Paper.

I cut a piece of Basic White into a 3×3″ square, and masked off a 2″ circle in the centre. I then stamped the Rays of Light background stamp in Orchid Oasis, ink blended some Tahitian Tide on the edges and ink splattered some Parakeet Party.

The Hello is taken from the Biggest Wish stamp set, which I stamped and heat embossed before fussy cutting.

A simple card, but one for any occasion.

This Hexagon Twist Fold card actually has a pocket that would awesome for gift card! I might have to make this one again nearer to Christmas for that.

How to make Cute Flower Card using Share a Milkshake from Stampin’ Up!

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah today for a super fun card idea! I saw something similar to this on Pinterest a few weeks ago, and just had to have a bit of a play. The Share a Milkshake stamp set is one of my favs from the January to April catalogue, but I haven’t had chance to use it for a few weeks, and so I wanted to do something a little bit different with it.

I’ve paired the Share a Milkshake die cut (can you spot it… I cannot believe that really its an ice cream cone!) with the Petal Park stamp and punch bundle.

The background of this card is super simple, but an effect I just LOVE and think it adds something to an otherwise fairly simple card design.

InspireINK Blog Hop | A Fancy Floral card using Petal Park from Stampin’ Up!

InspirInk Blog Hop Header Stampin' Up! team blog hop

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah for another InspireINK challenge! This month we were challenged to make a project with the theme ‘Fancy Floral’… and I have been enjoying the Petal Park bundle SO much that I just had to use it again.

This time I stamped the flowers in Memento and coloured them using Stampin’ Blends in Melon Mambo, Orchid Oasis, Pool Party and Daffodil Delight. I do love stamps that have a coordinating punch for super quick flowers.

The background is the Petal Park leaves stamped in Pool Party, and then I created a frame of Pool Party card stock using the retiring Stitched Rectangle dies (these are a must have and are going nowhere in my craft room!)

Check out the rest of the Fancy Floral ideas using the links below….

Creative Colour Challenges #84 | Pansy Patch

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah for my second colour challenge of the week. Today I thought I would share this week’s Creative Colour Challenge combination; Balmy Blue, Orchid Oasis and Petal Pink.

I am currently diving into my stamp shelf and trying to use stamps I haven’t used in a while… and I actually cannot remember the last time I inked this one! I love that Pansy Patch is carrying forward into the new Annual Catalogue, its so pretty and really versatile too.

I love a two step stamp, and these flowers are 3 step, but super easy to line up (and it doesn’t really matter if they aren’t perfect because they still look lovely).

The background panel, a piece of Orchid Oasis Card stock, is embossed using one of the trio of embossing folders in the Online Exclusives.
