So with this annual catalogue, I decided to get out of my comfort zone and get a few sets and bundles that I wouldn’t normally get.
Quiet Meadow Bundle is one of those items. I really like the way my card turned out tho! Reminded me of the style of cards I use to make with the ink splatters and washed out text.
And I have another video for you! Woohoo!
The best thing about this card, is that it would look GREAT in ANY colour! I should have actually made it in a different colour for my video.
Here’s a little recap of the card:
Basic White Thick Base
Emboss Brick & Mortar onto a Basic White layer
Stamp text and splatter lightly onto layer
Cut largest tag from any colour
Sponge tag
Paint flowers with Whisper White Ink
Stamp text and splatter onto tag
Tie Twine in a double bow
Cut out fern die from white, attach behind tag
Add Wink of Stella!
I love the texture and sparkly shimmer that this card has. I wish you could see the Wink of Stella in the photos.
Hi Everyone! I’ve played with the new Stampin’ Up! Inspired Thoughts Bundle to make some Thank You cards this last week.
You can’t see on the card, but the foliage on the trees are super sparkly, covered in Wink Of Stella!
And guess what??!! I’ve actually filmed a video for this card! And now that I’m looking at my photo, I realised that in my video, I adhered the bottom foliage pieces on in the other direction! Ooops!
In case you don’t have time to watch the video, here’s a quick run down on the card:
Base is Balmy Blue, with a little ink applied to the top with a blending brush.
Trees cut from Crumb Cake
Foliage cut from Crushed Curry with Poppy Parade Ink added around the edges
Sentiment stamped in Poppy Parade Ink and mounted
Wink of Stella applied to the tree foliage to give a really nice sparkly shimmer
And here’s a list of all the products I’ve used in creating this card
I hope you get a little inspiration for this bundle. It’s probably a bundle I wouldn’t normally go for, but I’m stepping out of my comfort zone with this annual catalogue 🙂
PS: don’t forget my Paper and Ribbon Share close on the 13th May and I’m giving away a full set of Stampin’ Write Markers this month!
I got my hands on some more new product, but I didn’t know what to use first! So I used a couple of sets and a couple of different papers on this card.
Inspired by one of the sheets in the Hand-Penned DSP! It was the Cinnamon Cider that got me this time. And can you believe that it’s the first time I’ve used Cinnamon Cider. It teams up so well with the new Pale Papaya colour.
The colours of my flower are Pale Papaya and Cinnamon Cider for the flower, and Mint Macaron and Evening Evergreen. I’ve used Blends for my colouring.
The spots stamped on the bottom left and on the corner of the InColor DSP are from the set Quiet Meadow. And the sentiment is from Art Gallery. I also added some ink around the edges with my Blending Brushes.
Simple embellishments with some White Bakers Twine and a single Pale Papaya Genial Gem in the centre of small flower.
I’m looking forward to playing with more new items and inspiring you in your own creative journey.

It’s a brand new month, time for a brand new Stampin’ Down Under PDF Class! Free as a Bird is one set that brings me absolute enjoyment when creating with it. I love our projects!
The Tutorial features 6 unique cards created by Paula Dobson from NZ and myself. Prices are in AU$ and can be purchased from anywhere in the world.
You can find the entire list of PDF’s we’ve created HERE, and for just another week I have my Class by Mail Instructions available. I’ll be taking these down on the 8th May.
There’s only a few days left of the current Annual Catalouge Retiring Sale. Today we are sending a fond Farewell to Healing Hugs.
Here’s a couple of cards from the past, plus an older video.
Don’t forget you only have until the 3rd May to order any of the items that are retiring. The best way to tell what is still available is to head to the Online Store
Everytime I release a new Class by Mail, I always get asked if I sell my PDF Instructions Only, and I don’t.. . BUT for 2 Weeks ONLY I am!!
You’ll have until the 7th May to grab the PDF’s that you want. You may live in a country other than Australia, or you might have missed out on a class that I ran. Now’s your chance to grab them.
Please note, this is for the PDF Instructions ONLY, there are no product or card kits with them. Instant download 🙂
Remember, you only have until the 7th May to purchase them.
I’m teaming up outgoing sets with brand new products, including new InColors again! Bloom & Grow and it’s matching die set Budding Blooms are going out.
Here I’ve used them with the new Soft Succulent and Fresh Freesia!
Can you spot other New Items?? Bark Embossing Folder in the background. And the tag is from a new die set called Tailor Made Tags.
Ive coloured my flowers with Soft Succulent, Fresh Freesia and a touch of Rich Razzleberry Blends.
And before I head off, here’s a card I’ve made in the past using the Bloom & Grow Bundle, using the same flower actually!
Like the new Incolors? Join my InColor Club starting 4th May.
Sometimes a new set of colours breathes life into an older, and now retiring, stamp set.
Today I’ve coloured Good Morning Magnolia with the new Pale Papaya, Soft Succulent and Evening Evergreen Incolors.
I stamped my image onto Shimmery White Card with Black Stazon. The leaves are coloured with Soft Succulent and then a little of the Evening Evergreen. I wanted something soft for the flower, and chose the Pale Papaya over So Saffron which was going to be my first choice.
I’ve kept the layout pretty simple because I sometimes think with such a large flower focal image, it’s best to keep it to a minimum!
A few of these items are on the Going Out list, but best to check the Online Store to make sure the items are still there.
It’s time to start getting all things InColor! They are soooo pretty this year, you’ll want to be a part of this club!
