Peaceful Place - Stampers Showcase Blog Hop

 



I'm thrilled to be participating in this month's blog hop which will give you a sneak preview of products from the upcoming July-December 2021 Mini Catalogue which will be released on August 3rd! Be sure to follow along with the link below to see the projects of the many talented demonstrators participating in this hop!

My card today uses mostly products from the Peaceful Place suite which has gorgeous products in shades of black, white and gray. I'm in love!


The card base is Basic Gray with a layer of Basic Black. The snowflake paper comes from the Peaceful Place Designer Series Paper. It's hard to see in the photo but there are silver foil accents on the paper!

The trees were cut using a die from the Cabin Dies set, out of our new Snowy White 12" x 12" Velvet Sheets! The velvet is perfect for snow! I topped each tree with a silver sequin from the Subtle Shimmer Sequins included with the suite.


The suite comes with some gorgeous White Glittered Organdy Ribbon but I chose to use another new ribbon, the Black & White Gingham Ribbon, that also coordinates with one of our new Halloween suites!


I finished off the card with a sentiment from the Peaceful Cabin Stamp Set, stamped on Basic Black in Versamark Ink and heat embossed with White Stampin' Emboss Powder. 


Enjoy the hop! Next up is an awesome project from the talented Melissa Seplowitz!

West Coast Creators Blog Hop - Bloom Where You're Planted

 

It's time for our monthly blog hop! Have you taken advantage of the Designer Series Paper (DSP) Sale this month? I decided to showcase the Bloom Where You're Planted DSP which is included in the 15% off sale through July 31, 2021!


The card base is Just Jade and the DSP is matted on Evening Evergreen. This DSP coordinates with the Plentiful Plants stamp set but the only stamp I used was for the sentiment! The dies in this bundle actually cut out some of the images in the paper so I used the dies to cut out the plant and pot!


To give the images some stability so that I could pop them up with Dimensionals, I also cut the shapes in Basic White Thick cardstock and glued them to the back of the DSP shapes.


To help the plant stand out, I cut out some circles using the Layering Circles Dies, and I embossed the Evening Evergreen circle with the Tasteful Texture 3D Embossing Folder. The sentiment was stamped in Versamark and heat embossed with White Emboss Powder. I added 3 sequins for a little bling.

Please enjoy hopping to the blogs of my fellow talented demonstrators below!

West Coast Creators Blog Hop - Hats Off

 

I'm excited to be participating in our West Coast Creators team blog hop! This month's theme is masculine cards and I have a special one to share with you!

My husband, Mike, works as a Fish Biologist for the BC provincial government and his favourite pastime is, of course, fishing! His favourite place to go fishing is Hope, BC. I created this card with him and the beautiful trees of Hope in mind!


This card uses the Hats Off bundle from the 2021-2022 Annual Catalogue (pg 47) and the Evergreen Elegance Stamp Set (pg 91). I used two of the new In-Colors, Evening Evergreen and Soft Succulent, as well as Smoky Slate for the hat and fish. 

Using Soft Succulent ink, I stamped the tall thin tree from Evergreen Elegance all over the Soft Succulent background, sometimes full strength and sometimes stamped off once or twice, giving the illusion of trees in the mist. I then stamped the same tree in Evening Evergreen ink towards the bottom, making them look closer. I adhered that layer to an Evening Evergreen layer and wrapped it in Linen Thread. 
The sentiment, from Hats Off was stamped in Versamark ink on Evening Evergreen and heat embossed with White Stampin' Emboss Powder and a Heat Tool. I bannered the right side with our Tailored Tag Punch and glued it to the left side. All was mounted on an Evening Evergreen card base with Stampin' Dimensionals.

Enjoy visiting the blogs of some very talented West Coast Creators!

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!
