Nature’s Beauty

The week’s product that I’m focusing on is the Nature’s Beauty cling stamp set. It costs $21 (150528) but the best part is that Stampin’ Up! donates $3 to mental health organisations for every stamp set sold. And it’s a really nice set. Win win!

I used old olive for the trees, text and card base and stamped the fox in memento tuxedo black ink. Next I used the cajun craze light and dark blends to color the fox including a little pretty peacock for his eyes. I extended the hill that he was sitting on to bring him more into the forefront and then added the snowfall accents puff paint which you apply and then heat to make it puff. It’s really fun.

Nature’s Beauty also contains a bunny and a deer and with the shading on the stamp itself it’s easy to color without having to worry about adding your own shadows. Perfect.

Toile Christmas without the cardinal

Leave a reply

I decided to challenge myself to use the Toile Christmas bundle but without the cardinal. It was surprisingly easy and didn’t even use the dies!

All the images came from the Toile Christmas stamp set and are stamped in crumb cake. The berries are colored with poppy parade and blinged it up (is that a word?!) with Wink of Stella. I used both colours of old olive blends for the leaves and dark crumb cake for the branches. It was a relaxing and happy time colouring! I used crumb cake for a mat and then a poppy parade card base.

Have you challenged yourself lately?

Toile Christmas

Leave a reply

This week I’m focusing on the Toile Christmas bundle (152367), an 8 piece cling stamp set and 8 dies featuring a rather impressive cardinal.

I stamped him in memento tuxedo black ink and then used dark poppy parade and dark daffodil delight blends to colour him in. I stamped the branch in crumb cake and used the same poppy parade blend, dark crumb cake and both old olive blends. Next I cut them out with the dies.

When I was deciding on the orientation of the card, I realized that the branch was a little short so I stamped an extension with the join covered up by the cardinal’s tail. I used wink of Stella to add some bling to the berries and his eye which also matches the shimmery white card stock. I added a crumb cake mat and put it on a poppy parade base.

Crumb cake is one of the colors that’s on special until Friday – 15% off cardstock and ink pads for neutrals, regals, 2018-2020 in colors, 2019-2021 in-colors (with the exception of the purple posy ink pad) and also a further 5% off 8 bundles. Go to my store and check it out!

Onstage is so much fun!

Leave a reply

I got back this afternoon from Local Onstage in Hartford CT. What is Onstage? It’s a gathering of demonstrators organized by Stampin’ Up! for a day – with a special evening the night before for people who have attained a leader title (silver elite or above). The Live Onstage takes 2.5 days and rotates between the regions – this time it was in Germany. We get to see the upcoming catalogs before anyone else and we can even place a pre-order as thanks for attending.

Me and Selene and Julia. The three of us are great friends even though Selene lives 5 hours away and Julia is only 15 minutes.

Fun on our table with Laura who drove up with me

Christine, me and Laura marching across the stage (with a pause for a photo) to be celebrated for our 5 year anniversary

Our whole table happily looking at the new catalogs.

About 1000 of us having a blast

Here are 4 of the members of the Talented Tutorial Team and Chad from the home office who was MC-ing the event.

We are given new product, play with some of it too, watch presentations (seeing the new tulip punch making a squid as well as pac-man ghosts was wonderful!). One of the best parts is that you see people that you know but rarely see due to geography and meet masses of new people.

So would you like to attend? All you have to do is to join up which is easy. Select $125 in product and pay only $99 and get free shipping. You’ll get a 20% discount off all your ongoing orders whilst you stay current which is also easy! There’s no obligation to do anything more but I hope that you do.Just click on the Join my Team button just below and you’re on your way to an Onstage.

Feels Like Frost Suite

Leave a reply

This week I’m playing with the Feels like frost Suite which consists of the Frosted Foliage cling stamp set, the frosted frames dies, the Feels Like Frost specialty DSP, ribbon, shimmery crystal effects and glitter and you can get all of it with just one product code – 153474 – for just $78. Incidentally, if you order this from me, I’ll send you a bundle of 15 tutorials for free.

This is a simple card just highlighting the stunning designer series paper which I placed on a night of navy card base. I thought about matting in silver but it was just too much. So I brought in the silver for the heat embossing using one of the sentiments from the Frosted Foliage set.
