Autumn Winter Catalogue 2019

Sorry for being away for so long. I have had IT issues. TIme has stood still on my Laptop for a while, I recently attempted to write a blog and it all went a bit wrong.

So while I was missing the Autumn Winter Catalogue went live. It is amazing! The video below shows a gorgeous gorgeous card created using one of the gorgeous new bundles and the Mercury Glass acetate.

I love all the items in the new catalogue, if you click on the catalogue picture you can see all the pretty items too. The Stars are one of my favourites, what is your favourite?

A different CASE

There are two different alternatives for the acronym CASE in the craft world. The first is copy and share everything, the other alternative is copy and selectively edit. Today I thought  that I would try the second meaning using the Global Design Project sketch.

GDP200.jpg

Copy and selectively edit, means that you use the inspiration in a number of ways for inspiration, you could use the colours, sketch lay out, or pick out elements. From the stunning inspiration in #GDP200 I considered a number of options. The colours (I think that they are Crumb Cake, Lovely Lipstick and Petal Pink), the linen thread, the embossed layer, the three elements (using the Butterfly Gala Stamp set.)

I decided to go with the embossed background, three elements and the linen thread. Rather than using an embossing folder I used an embossing mat to make images of two snowflakes and used the same die to cut out the snowflakes.

Lots of Happy Kit

Whats black and white with the options to add colour? The fabulous Lots of Happy kit from Stampin’ Up! There’s lots to love and enjoy in this all-inclusive card kit including the stamps, card bases and embellishments.  It is so easy to make these gorgeous cards and then add your own colour using the fabulous Watercolor Pencils which are included in the kit. All you need to add is adhesive and scissors. I also recommend a blender pen and bone folder. The kit makes 4 each of 5  card designs for a total of 20 card designs.

This kit is perfect for a beginner stamper, if someone is short of space, you want to experience the quality of Stampin’ Up! for the first time or you want to enjoy some simple stamping without having to think too much. As you have the ink, stamps, block and watercolour pencils, you have items which just need a few extra bits to make some  stunning cards. i love the colour combination

The video below shows the kit and the cards that I made using the kit and stamp set.

To make this kit more easily usable, I have an offer for you, if you purchase this kit before the end of April 2020 you will receive a free blender pen.*

*this will arrive separately from your main order along with a free gift and card from me  (please do not tick the no contact box as I will be unable to send you your items.)

Notes of Kindness Card Kit

Over the last few days I have been playing with some of the Stampin’ Up! all inclusive kits. Kits are perfect for new stampers to test the basics of stamping or more advanced crafters who have limited space.

Sometimes it’s nice to just be able to sit, relax and make some gorgeous cards without having to make decisions as all the planning and instructions are provided for you.  Everything is ready to go!  You just have to add a bone folder, scissors and glue.

The Notes of Kindness is an amazing kit. This kit is so simple to make using the stickers and die-cuts provided but also makes 20 elegant cards with a gorgeous soft design.  

What is included in the kit

  • Set of 6 photopolymer stamps

  • All paper supplies to make 20 cards. ( 5 of each 4 designs)

  • Clear stamp Block 

  • Giftable kraft box

  • Die-cut stickers and accent

  • Dimensionals 

  • Black Archival ink spot

  • Adhesive-backed Pearls 

  •  Copper Baker’s Twine 

I just love the mix in this amazing colour pallette, they are gorgeous together.

I decided to use the stamps to create some more cards using the stamp set, block and ink spot. I also used the 2019-2021 In colours.  But you could use any colour combination.

The vidoes show a close up of the Notes of Kindness Kit and also the cards that I have made using the kit and also the stamps and other colours.

I hope you love the kit as much as I do. I love the new In-colour combinations and also the kit which you may not have noticed in the Catalogue.
