Hats Off - Kylie's International Winners Hop

 



I want to thank all of you who voted for my card in Kylie's International Blog Highlights and helped me get to the Winners Hop! Please check out all the winners' blogs by clicking on the links below!

My card today is using the new Hats Off Bundle! Although this set is great for masculine cards, it can be used for feminine cards, too!


This card represents my love of sunsets and Melon Mambo! My Stampin' Up! team is called Sunset Stampers so this would be a great thank you card for when a team member helps me out or it would be wonderful as a thank you for a customer order!

I used Melon Mambo and Crushed Curry cardstocks and the gorgeous Rainbow Glimmer Paper! I stamped the sun label on Vellum by first inking with Versamark and then Polished Pink. I then heat embossed with Clear Stampin' Emboss Powder. I used a Mango Melody Blends marker to colour in between the sunrays. The stars were die cut out of Crushed Curry using the Stitched Stars Dies and I topped them off with Rhinestone Basic Jewels!

West Coast Creators Blog Hop - Expressions in Ink




Welcome to our blog hop! Our theme this month is New Products from the 2021-2022 Annual Catalogue!

One of my favourite new suites is the Expressions in Ink Suite! The gorgeous Expressions in Ink Designer Series Paper replicates the Blends/Vellum/Alcohol technique as well as other alcohol ink techniques. It's stunning paper!


I started with a piece of the beautiful DSP and chose Magenta Madness and Shaded Spruce cardstock to go with it. I also added a small piece of Shaded Spruce from the Regals 6x6 Designer Series Paper Assortment. I used the Tailored Tag Punch to banner the end. The circles were die cut in Gold Foil and Basic White with the new Picture This Dies!



The sentiment is from the Artistically Inked Stamp Set, stamped in Shaded Spruce. I added a Magenta Madness bow cut using the Pierced Blooms Dies and topped it off with a sequin from the Expressions in Ink Ephemera Pack!

Be sure to check out my fellow demonstrators' blogs to see their gorgeous creations!

Quiet Meadow - Kylie's International Highlights

 

I am, once again, very excited to be participating in Kylie's International Blog Highlights with Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from around the world! 

My card features some brand new products from the 2021 - 2022 Annual Catalogue, available to you on May 4, 2021!




I used only Basic White and Basic Black cardstock for this card, but I used ink in 3 of the new 2021-2023 In Colors - Pale Papaya, Polished Pink and Fresh Freesia! Using our Blending Brushes, I applied these to a white cardstock layer, overlapping and blending the colours. In order to fit the black background die, I cut the white piece to 4 5/8" x 3 5/16" for a perfect fit!


The black background layer was cut using the Scalloped Contours Dies. The flowers and sentiment label were cut using the Meadow Dies from the Quiet Meadow Bundle.


The sentiment, from the Quiet Meadow stamp set, was stamped in Versamark and heat embossed with White Stampin' Emboss Powder. I finished off with some black twine from the new Baker's Twine Essentials Pack!
