Inspire.Create.Challenge #135 | Love for You

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah today for this week’s Inspire.Create.Challenge sketch. Do hop over to the Inspire.Create blog and see the sketch and the rest of the Design Team’s creations (and add your own projects too!).

I have been loving creating with the Love for You bundle. The flower stamps in this one are really lovely and the words dies are just perfect.

The Designer Series Paper in the background is from Sun Prints, and uses Night of Navy. I do love a Night of Navy moment, here I’ve paired it with Balmy Blue, Soft Succulent and Blushing Bride… oh, and a hint of Gold too!

This card is finished with a trio of the Adhesive-backed Milky Dots.

International Blog Highlight | Thank You Sun Prints

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah… I haven’t joined in with the Blog Highlight for a little while, and I’ve really missed it! So, here we are, back again with a fun Thank You card I made on Sunday afternoon.

I love the Natures Prints stamp set and the coordinating dies (especially that wreath!) but I really struggle to get it used. So, I turned to a sketch I’ve used fair bit this year, of a layer of card stock and a layer of Designer Series Paper… and then had a play about with where the wreath could/should be…

The Sun Prints suite only has a few colours; Gray Granite, Night of Navy, Pacific Point and Starry Sky. Here I’ve used Gray Granite as the card base, and then stamped in Night of Navy.

Can you see, there are 5 Rhinetones on this card? But they are subtle as I’ve coloured them with a dark Night of Navy Blend pen. I love the effect!

If you love this card as much as I do… please consider voting for it over on Kylie’s blog.

Inspire.Create.Challenge #124 | Colour with Natures Prints from Stampin’ Up!

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah for this weeks Inspire.Create.Challenge. This week we have a fabulous Colour Combination for you. Pop over to the Inspire.Create blog to check out the colours, see the rest of the Design Teams projects and add your own makes too!

I thought I would use the Nature’s Prints bundle for this card… I absolutely adore that wreath die, its so pretty and delicate. Here I added swatches of colour onto Fluid 100 Watercolour Paper and then die cut the wreath after.

The green’s in the colour combination are added at the bottom, with the fern stamps… and a bit of Garden Green ink splatter using a Stampin’ Write Marker.

Completed with a heat embossed sentiment on a Stitched rectangle die cut from Crumb Cake card stock, and a bow of Linen Thread.

Watercolour wash with Nature's Prints from Stampin' Up! with StampinByHannah

I have been dying to try a watercolour wash with this stamp set since it arrived in my craft room, but for some reason I only managed to actually do it yesterday! This is the Nature’s Prints stamp set (and a piece of the Sun Prints Designer Series Paper), which I just love. The big leaf stamp is heat embossed in White onto a piece of Fluid100 Watercolour Paper, and then a wash of Night of Navy over the top. This is pretty strong watercolour, not a lot of water and a couple of drops of Night of Navy straight from a re-inker.

The sentiment is heat embossed in white, from the same stamp set, and this card is finished with a trio of the Classic Matte Dots.

Crafting Live! | Fun with Nature’s Prints from Stampin’ Up!

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah this week for my YouTube Live replay. This week I have had the Sun Prints suite out on my desk following last weekends blog hop, and I have had so much fun playing with it that I thought I would share it again on YouTube Live this week.

Hello There Just Because Card using Sun Prints from Stampin' Up! with StampinByHannah

Seeing as its Jubilee Weekend, I thought it only right that I use Red, Blue and White… or Night of Navy, Sweet Sorbet, Basic White (and Sahara Sand).

I absolutely LOVE a wreath on a card, and so I couldn’t not get this set of dies… which then led to the stamp set, and the whole suite! The wreath die on its own is really pretty, however, I like to step things up a little, and these flowers also form a perfectly sized wreath on the front of a card.

Hello! Welcome to StampinByHannah today. Today is a little bit special, because its our team blog hop, we do about 3 of these a year to celebrate the release of new Stampin’ Up! Catalogues. They are SO much fun, and I hope that you hit some of the other ladies blogs later using the links at the end of this blog post.

When I was shopping through the new Annual Catalogue, this suite didn’t immediately jump out at me. However, after seeing some of the fabulous creations that the Artisan’s had created with it, it fell into my basket!
