Beautiful Friendship

by Alisa Tilsner, in category Cards, Videos

I loved the Beautiful Friendship stamp set as soon as I saw it in the new catalogue. It’s great for just filling up your white card with loads of beautiful colour flowers.

And of course, having been made at Linc n Learn, I have another colour variation for you.

Beautiful Friendship

The colour combination I’ve used here is Blushing Bride, Rococo Rose, Seaside Spray and Pretty Peacock. First go at inking up the Seaside Spray and Pretty Peacock. The SS is so nice and works really well with the Rococo Rose.

I did a Facebook Live to show how I created the card, but once again, the comments wouldn’t come through.

Just a reminder about Stamp by Mail – I’m still waiting for my cardstock order to arrive, so I’m leaving it open until it does arrive. You won’t have long to sign up tho – VISIT THIS POST TO SEE MORE

Good Morning Magnolia

by Alisa Tilsner, in category Cards

Don’t you love a new catalogue? This is my first play with the new Good Morning Magnolia. You may have seen it around a fair bit already, but my card is a little bit different to most.

Good Morning Magnolia

I have not one but two video’s to share with you on how I created this card (I had to pick up my son from work, then had iMovie issues and couldn’t stitch the two video’s together)

I mention in the video that I have cased this card from one I saw on Pinterest. I’m not sure how to link to the card, but I took a screen shot of the photo to share. (still want to give credit)

Okay, just a quick reminder – There’s one week left to register for my Bird Ballad Stamp by Mail. I should have a sneak peek of the cards very soon.

Cheers for now – Alisa

Stamping Society June Blog Hop

by Alisa Tilsner, in category Cards

Welcome to the Stamping Society June Blog Hop! This month we are featuring the Bird Ballad Suite which will be available in the new Annual Catalogue on the 4th June.

So to start with, here is my card for the Blog Hop.

Free as a Bird Stamp Set

I was a little caught up in the same colour combo I used the other day. Which I’m happy about because I love how this one turned out too! The colouring instructions are in the Online Tutorial.

I’ve started with a base of Pear Pizzazz, then Mossy Meadow and Rococo Rose *swoon*. For something different, I used two pieces of Baker’s Twine tied into a bow. Why have I never done this before?? The card felt a little heavy on the left side, so to even it up, I coloured 3 Rhinestones with Black Blends and adhered them below the sentiment.

Free as a Bird Stamp Set.

Casing the new Annual Catalogue

by Alisa Tilsner, in category Cards

Isn’t funny how seeing an older stamp in a new sample makes you want to pull it out again? This was the case with the High Tide Stamp Set. I spotted a card in the new Annual Catalogue (goes live on the 4th June) and had to make it for Linc n Learn.

High Tide Stamp Set

I did change it up slightly, I used a different Sentiment in the set and cut that panel a little shorter than it should have been, but hey no one would know right?

Now the colour of the card stock is Granite Gray and the ink used is Smoky Slate (according to Stampin’ Up!). I thought that it weird, but I trusted them, and I think it looks great! I am using an older Brick embossing folder, but we have an awesome looking 3D Distressed Brick Embossing Folder coming, it’ll be in my order for sure.

Then of course, being Linc n Learn I thought I would take some extra colours and sponge up a different colour. The above card is Pool Party and Bermuda Bay. Below is Crushed Curry and Mango Melody.

High Tide Stamp Set

And now for something that came out of the blue. Stampin’ Up! have decided to offer a discount on a small selection of items. I still have my personal sale going until the end of 31st May too. My top picks are the Itty Bitty Greetings (I’ve already ordered it). It’s returning in the next catalogue, but with the sticky stickers. And the other would have to be the Large Alphabet Dies. – https://www3.stampinup.com/ecweb/products/300504/discounted

Okay, that’s it for me! Cheers for now – Alisa

I finally did a Facebook! It’s been so long, but of course it didn’t come without difficulties *eyeroll*. Anyway, I remade my Free as a Bird card that I made the other week. But this time I used a new colour combo.

Free as a Bird

Here’s a little close up of the colouring. You can see it’s just thrown on!
