Colour Creation Insta Hop Peaceful Pine

Hi,

Our group of Stampin Up Demonstrators and Hobbyists, (Art of With Heart Team), are working through each colour currently available in the catalogues. Peaceful Pine, the last of our new In Colours, is this week’s colour.  It is such a soft dark green. 

I just love these Everyday Arches Dies.  They can be used in many different ways. This example be,ow is probably using the most popular but still spectacular.  I also used Relaxing Waterside Dies, a sheet from April’s Paper Pumpkin.  Happy Birthday is a retired dies, Wanted to Say Dies 

This scene resonates with me. I grew up about 8 klms from the beach.  I spent most weekends at the beach.    When we went away for holidays Dad always took the boat that he built.  First boat was a canoe, second was a cabin cruiser which just grew and grew.  Many, many hours were spent at the seaside.  Sitting in a chair with a book and cuppa beside the sea, with seagulls in the sky just does it for me. 

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.

Card Sketch

Hi everyone,

Here is another card sketch.  These can be found in the first few pages of the current brochures. 

I used Mixed Media Florals Designer Series Paper which can be found in the On Line Store.  I also used Eyelet 3D Embossing folder for this top card which can found in the brochure on page 129.  I also used Wanted To Say Dies.  These can be found in the Annual Catalogue ©2024 Stampin‘ Up!® on page 85. 

On the horizontal card I changed the colours a little bit and a different embossing folder which is retired.

Full of Life

 Hi everyone. 

Full of Life Designer Series Paper makes a great but simple card.  I saw this green paper and immediately thought of my daughter-in-law who loves green. 

I made our daughter-in-law a quilt before she married our son.  This quilt had purple and greens in the fabric.  Beautiful fabric.  I completed the quilt and showed our son.  I said to him, purple would look lovely on the back of this quilt.  His response was: ‘it might, Mum, but Steph loves greens.  Guess what, I put green on the back.  Have you worked out that I’m not a fan of greens. 

Well, back to the cards, this Full of Life Designer Series Paper is striking, in greens and other colours, all bright. Full of  Life Designer Series Paper that can be found in the Annual Catalogue ©2024 Stampin‘ Up!® on page 43. 

Recently, Mum and I went to a paper show.  Sometime I have to just buy something that isn’t Stampin Up.  Hello is similar to Wanted to Say Dies, found on page 85.  I used these dies so much.

Take To The Sky

 Hi everyone, 

Who is taking to the sky?  Our daughter and her family are flying to Rockhampton this week.  However their plane is a bit more modern and more reliable than these planes were.  These planes might take several days and several refuelling stops to get to Rockhampton.   However, think of the lovely sites that you would see along the way.  You would be closer to the ground. 

This is called an Easel Card.  I created this card using ‘Take to the Sky Suite’ which is found in the Annual Catalogue ©2024 Stampin‘ Up!® commencing on page 38. 

I started with card stock measuring 11” x 4 1/8”, fold in half and use the bone thingy to make a crisp fold. Fold the front half in half again.  Cut another piece of card stock, 5 1/2” x 4 1/8”.  The DSP is cut 1/4” smaller, (5 1/4” x 3 7/8”).  You can use any round punch or dies.  I used Deckled Circles Dies which can be found in our Online Store. ‘Happy Birthday’ and ‘Celebrate’ are found in the Wanted To say Dies which is found on page 85.
