As a Stampin' Up Demonstrator, we are able to pre-order new products. Always fun to get them early and play..... And that's what I've been doing Sale-A-Bration is in full swing and thisFriday, Februar
I recently participated in a Demonstrator Swap for cards featuring products from the upcoming Occasions Catalog and Sale-A-Bration 2018. For one of the cards I swapped, I used the adorable Party Pandas Set that can be earned for FREE during Sale-A-Bration. I think the vines embossing folder from the new Petal Pair Textured Impressions Embossing Folders looks like bamboo, so I paired it with one of the pandas. This card also gave me a way to use up some excess Be Merry Designer Series Paper even though Christmas is over for this year! Uses Party Pandas Clear-Mount Set plus Lemon...

Hello, welcome to the Crazy Crafters Sale-A-Bration & Occasions Catalogue Blog hop, grab a cuppa and sit back and enjoy. There are so many wonderful items items in the catalogues, it's hard to choose a favourite. After agonising over the choices, I decided to have a play with Brusho and created these cards suing the Petal Palette Bundle. I decided to gold emboss the stamped images now for the fun! I added water to the leaf sections then tapped in the Moss Green Brusho - the magic starts to happen as soon as the Brusho hits the water! I used the aqua painter to work the colour to the edges of the leaves where need and then left to dry thoroughly, then brushed of any Brusho crystals with a fine paint brush before repeating the process on the flowers with Gamboge (or as I refer to it...orange) and Brilliant Red. I used the same process for the bird below, while that was drying had a created the background by applying Prussian Blue Brusho, spritzing with water, then smooched with a clear stamping block, I love the vibrant random background this method created. The Petal Palette bundle has beautiful images and sentiments and the Petals & more thinlet dies mean no fussy cutting, as well as additional detailed dies like I used to for the additional foliage on this card. Brusho is so much fun, the possibilities are endless, likewise the variations of colour you can create when blending the colours together. Take your time to hop all the way around the Crazy Crafters Blog hop and see all the incredible creations, and if you have a chance please leave a comment, we love receiving comments!

Hi guys! Welcome, welcome to DAY 1 of the On Stage 2017 display stamper blog hop. What is this hop all about? Demonstrators around the world applied and were selected by Stampin' Up! to create cards and projects using upcoming products from the 2018 Occasions and Sale-a-bration catalogs. Th
Today's the day! There are three new items (the bundle counts as one) added to the Sale-A-Bration selections, and they are fabulous!!! To see the flyer, click the image below. I've already made several cards with the beautiful Blossoming Basket Bundle, so today I wanted to focus on the beautiful Springtime Foils Specialty DSP. There are four gorgeous designs and you get three sheets of each design for a total of twelve 12" x 12" sheets! This card used the rose gold foiled floral design, which was colored with Stampin' Blends and fussy cut. The blossom was glued to the silver striped DSP that had been cut with the largest Stitched Shapes circle. After stamping the dots with Powder Pink, the circle was then popped up on dimensionals and the bow (colored w/ Pink Pirouette Blends) was added. The greeting was stamped in Basic Black Archival ink.

I was excited this last week as my Big Brown Box arrived with my stamparatus and the Blossoming Basket Bundle. Wow I was so surprised that the Basket Weave came in the 3 dimensional Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder, wow oh wow (and it does carry over into the next Annual Catalogue). You may be starting here so welcome to this weeks blog hop or you could have come from Sandra Collett. This week I am caseing the card to the left, with a white background but have used the different tones of naturals and yellows for the flowers and basket. The Stampin' Blends make colouring in the flowers and basket so easy, but the fussy cutting out the inside the basket handle too a little time and patience. For my card class yesterday we used the same theme but made the card into a landscape card and added some of the beautiful Copper ribbon to the centre of the card instead of a little strip up the side. Stamp Set: Blossoming Basket Cardstock: Thick Whisper White, Whisper White, Soft Suede, Crumb Cake Ink: Memento, Soft Suede, Crumb Cake and lots of Stampin' Blends Accessories: Basket Weave Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder, Big Shot Die-Cutting Machine, Copper Twine, Twine Thanks for hopping today, it's time to hop on over to Megan Lenske and wow love what she has created this week with the Sale-A-Bration products.

Hello everyone. How are the holidays going for you? Some of you may even be back at work already, I know I am 😊 As a team we love to inspire and also be inspired by our fellow demonstrators. When we find inspirations we then share with you all. The Crazy Crafters special guest today is the inspirational Meg Loven. Thank you Meg for being our inspiration today. Here is Megs card that inspired my project. you can click HERE to see her post. I chose this design because I love using up scraps to create something new with. And I have had a certain little scrap just waiting for the right time to be part of something beautiful. Today is that time. My Sweet Soirée #KOCreationscards #Sweetsoirée #Bestbirds #Cardmaking #Stampinup #Flowers #Papercraft #Gifts #Foryou #2018Saleabration #2018Occasionscatalogue When CASEing we decide on certain elements to keep. Sometimes it can be just as simple as being inspired by a layout, or even the placement of the sentiment. The elements I chose to use were The silhouette focal, which was my special scrap piece that I just couldn't throw away! *Can you pick which set it's from? The banners and the Best Birds I chose to use the absolutely gorgeous Sweet Soirée DSP and matching ribbon as my design base. Sweet Soirée and all matching elements will be available for purchase in MY STORE from the 3rd January 2018. If you haven't received a copy of the new catalogues yet, then please email me with your deets and I will organise to send you a copy! [email protected] Australian Residents Only Frontal View #KOCreationscards #Sweetsoirée #Bestbirds #Cardmaking #Stampinup #Flowers #Papercraft #Gifts #Foryou #2018Saleabration #2018Occasionscatalogue I picked the stunning Berry Burst floral sheet which has Calypso Coral with silver dots on the reverse side. I did wonder how I was going to tie in my black silhouette (*Eclectic Layers Thinlits) with such vibrant colours, without over powering the DSP. The gorgeous DSP as a background also proved to be slightly problematic as it is very busy. So, I decided that vellum sheet over the reverse DSP as a banner duo would help break it up nicely. I think I have achieved a perfect mix of busy, while drawing your eye to the focal and created a beautifully striking card. What do you think? To continue moving through the hop please click the name directly after mine. I hope you really enjoyed my project today. I look forward to sharing more with you in the New Year. If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask. I always reply.

Hello and welcome once again. I am back with another Global Design Project Challenge. #GDP127 is a theme challenge celebrating Stampin' Up!'s biggest yearly promotion: Sale-a-bration. Have you earned your Sale-a-Bration reward yet? Sale-a-bration products are only available until the 31st March, 2018. You can choose a FREE Sale-a-bration product for every $90AUD you spend (before shipping and handling). By the number of projects submitted to #GDP127 using the Blossoming Basket Bundle I would say that this bundle is proving to be very popular. For my GDP projects today I too have chosen this bundle one of the items from the just newly released Sale-a-bration rewards I have also used the Blossoming Springtime Foils Specialty Designer Series Paper. I have attempted to use mainly Sale-a-Bration products and as always I like to make a few projects to show you the versatility of each product. The Springtime Foils Specialty Designer Paper (DSP) is so pretty. It has 12 sheets of Spring-inspired foil designs with 3 each of 4 single-sided designs in Gold foil, Rose gold foil and Silver foil. The little Petal Passion Embellishments in the 2018 Occasions catalogue (page 23 is where you will find them) coordinate perfectly with this DSP so I couldn't resist adding one to my tag. For something a little different I have added a technique I learned at Vanessa Webb's class this week. I used a Sponge Brayer to add Tuxedo Black Memento to my paper I think it really makes the foil design pop. The card and gift tag below were my original projects for #GDP127. However Jo Stubbings had already submitted a very gorgeous similar card so I had to go back to the drawing board and start again. I stamped with Versamark and white heat embossed before water colouring my basket of flowers with Melon Mambo, Rose Red, Lemon Lime Twist and Smokey Slate ink. I did design this card with my mother in mind for Mother's Day. But then I thought maybe not a good idea. She is such a 'neat freak' those fallen petals would have been wist away before they hit the table. Although I must admit at 86 years of age her home is immaculate and is truly a credit it to her. To use more Sale-a-bration products I have made another card with a coordinating basket. The Basket Weave Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder is part of the Blossoming Basket Bundle and the lovely Shimmery Ribbon in Basic Grey is part of a 3 roll pack containing Bermuda Bay and Calypso Coral also only available during Sale-a-bration. My little basket is made using a tutorial kindly posted by Vicky Hayes back in March, 2013. Thank you Vicki. Thank you for calling by today. All products used for my projects are available from my online store. If you do not have an Australian Demonstrator already and would place your Stampin' Up! orders with me I would be deeply grateful. The host code for March is M3UQBAXN If you spend over $50AUD not including postage and handling and enter this host code to your order you will receive a special gift in the post from me.

Hi Crafters! Today I'm playing with the first hop with the amazing One Stamp at a Time Blog Hop Team & we have a beautiful new logo & we have some wonderful new members on board, so I hope you can get around the crew & check out all their projects! You may have come from the beautiful & very talented Maria Willis or you may be starting here at my blog, but you sure don't want to miss any xx I have made a couple of cards using the beautiful new Heartfelt Blooms stamp set that you can get for FREE with a $90 order of any products from my online shop! Yep, you heard me right! You spend $90 or more on anything from the Annual, Occasions or the Clearance Rack (or a mix) & you can pick this stamp set or a bunch of other fabulous stamp sets & other products for free! Woohoo! Who doesn't love a freebie, right? Isn't this stamp just divine? It has sooo much detail & you'll think it wont, the stamp looks really flat & then you stamp it & it's just gorgeous! I have used the beautifully understated Wood Textures Designer Series Paper (DSP) and a little Copper Heat Embossing & Copper Metallic Thread to create these lovely cards on Night of Navy cardstock & ink. I have created the sentiment using the Pretty Label Punch with the top & bottom sliced off. The first one has Night of Navy Crinkle Ribbon. The one underneath has Burlap Ribbon. I have stamped the corner of the inside (with the stamp upside down to show the flowers... or maybe this is right way up & I've used it upside down on the front? haha! Lucky it looks good either way!) & used one of the other sentiments from this stamp set for the inside. This font is so pretty. And this next card, I've used one of the darker wood prints, so I stamped the flower image in White Craft Ink first, let it dry & stamped Night of Navy over the top. I have used a Smokey Slate cardstock base for this card, more Night of Navy Crinkle Ribbon & Copper sequins from the Metallics Sequin Assortment. And this is the third sentiment from this stamp set. I've kept the inside simple with just a little leaf on the inside so I can write a nice long thank you message. I hope you have enjoyed my cards & that you enjoy the rest of your travels through this amazing first OSAT blog hop of 2018! And Happy New Year!
