Colour Creations Week 13 Cajun Craze

 Hi everyone, 

A group of Stampin Up Demonstrators and Hobbyists are working through each colour currently available in the catalogues. Cajun Craze is this week’s colour.  This is not one of my favourite colours.  In fact I don’t like orange, browns or greens much. 

When I started thinking about this card, I discovered that I had card stock but no stamp pad.  Why would someone buy card stock without the stamp pad.  It seems a bit silly to me. I must rectify it soon.

I started with this first card below.  I played around with the colours.  I used Wild Wheat, Old Olive and Cajun Craze with Thoughtful Journey Designer Series Paper. I even found some ribbon to match. I have  left a sentiment off because I couldn’t work out what to put on it and how.  So it still bare.  However, I really like the card as it is. 


This next one is using Layers of Beauty.  I used Calypso Coral and used a light layer up to the darkest layer.  3 layers in all.  The last layer looks pretty close to Cajun Craze, don’t you think.  I also used Soft Sea Foam for the leaves.  Once again, I am pretty pleased with this one too. 


Have you used Stampin Up products before. One of the reasons that I became a demonstrator/hobbyist was because I love the colour combos.  Stampin Up provides cardstock, ribbon, stamp pad, and matching designer series paper and sometimes matching glitz to enhance the cards.  If you are a bit pedantic with colour combinations Stampin Up is your friend. They certainly have my vote.  

The current Annual Catalogue is available on this blog.

Layers of Beauty

 Hi everyone, 

Sorry, I have been very slack.  I had trouble with my blogspot and took a wile to work out the problem. So I’ll try to get my act together again. 

This Layers of Beauty Bundle is fantastic.  I have not worked very much with stencils.  My sister-in-law has tried to introduce them to me for sometime without much luck.  

However this bundle made everything so easy, after I watch a couple for videos.  This was my favourite.  The layers of Beauty Bundle is found in the Annual Catalogue ©2024 Stampin‘ Up!® on page 57

I used Bubble Bath, Petunia Pop and Berry Burst.

Layers of Beauty

Hi everyone, 

Mum has just left after being here for a month. We usually do a bit of stamping and making cards while she is here.  

I amde some cards, one of which is below before Mum arrived.  I probably used the stencils while on skype with Mum.  Anyway she wanted to make some.  Here she is making her flowers.  


Here are her flowers.  She has taken her flowers home and will put the one card bases similar to mine. Mum did a fantastic job. Don’t you think

Layers of Beauty

Hi everyone, 

I played a bit with the new Layers of Beauty Bundle.  This consists of  stamp set, dies and decorative masks.  This is something that requires a bit more concentration.  I made these while on a video link with Mum.   My first try was the first card.  It worked out well.  



I watched a video from Claire Daly.  This is worthwhile watching before you start playing with the set.  I don’t know why I can not download the link to the video, however this is what it looks like below.
