Amazing Life Clean and Simple

by Alisa Tilsner, in category Cards, Facebook Live Videos, Videos

We had a really nasty weather day Friday. It was 35 degrees, 95km/hour winds, major dust storms and had our power cut as a precaution to fire danger. So what is one to do? Make cards of course!

It’s been a very long time since I’ve done a challenge over at Splitcoast Stampers. I found one in the CAS section with the theme of 3 in a Row. I thought the cakes from Amazing Life would be perfect.

Amazing Life Stampin' Up!

I’ve coloured with Stampin’ Blends in a checker board style. The overall card didn’t take very long to create at all.

It’s also been a long time since I did a Facebook Live, so I did one! Here’s the replay for you.

Hope you enjoy it, and have a play your blends too.

Cheers for now – Alisa

Stock up on 2017/18 InColor Products

by Alisa Tilsner, in category Cards

Did you know that the new Annual Catalogue comes out on the 4th June? This means that now is the time to stock up on 2017/18 InColor products as they’ll be retiring.

If you have favourites of the following: Fresh Fig, Berry Burst, Powder Pink, Tranquil Tide, Lemon Lime Twist, you might want to grab some extra packs of card, and most importantly the ink refills.

When the retiring list goes live, the ink refills and card are generally the first items to sell out. I wouldn’t even wait for the list to come out, we already know that they are going!

I think my favourite may have ended up being Lemon Lime Twist, even though it didn’t grab me at first!

Okay, consider this your advance notice on 2017/18 InColor sellouts lol!

Incredible Like You Project Kit

by Alisa Tilsner, in category Cards

Let’s talk Project Kits by Stampin’ Up!. Do you like them? Do you get them? I normally shy away from the kits but I had to get the Incredible Like You Project Kit.

I did share out the kit with my SAB Club Members, there was one left over, woohoo for me!

This card literally took under 5 mins to assemble. I think taking the photo took longer than the creation!

Incredible Like You Project Kit
Nails from Get Nailed!

This Project Kit comes complete with all your consumable items – printed card bases, overlays, glitter layers, twine, rhinestones, even dimensionals and adhesive dots.

I might have to get it out for another play soon!

If you’re after quick cards, Project Kits are definitely for you.

That’s it for me! Cheers for now – Alisa

13 Years with Stampin’ Up!

by Alisa Tilsner, in category Cards

Today I am celebrating 13 Years with Stampin’ Up! Woohoo!!

I was looking through some old cards I’d made way back when, and thought I’d recreate one using current product.

Balmy Breeze

I made this card back in 2007 using the Balmy Breeze stamp set. Of course some of the colours have gone now, as have all the stamp sets, and embellishments. So I had to ad lib a little.

Lovely as a Tree

I’m not 100% happy with it. I’ve used Cherry Cobbler as the base (Ruby Red), Soft Seafoam (Mellow Moss), Mossy Meadow (Always Artichoke) and Early Espresso (Chocolate Chip). And of course I had to use Lovely as a Tree as it’s been in the Australian market for as long as I have.

Anyway, it was still fun creating this card with friends 🙂

Cheers for now – Alisa

Stampin’ Up! Home to Roost

by Alisa Tilsner, in category Cards

3 Days to go! Won’t be long and we’ll be saying goodbye to the Stampin’ Up Home to Roost Stamp Set. I had to colour him in at least once before he disappears.

Stampin' Up! Home to Roost

We made him up at Linc n Learn, and I’m on just realising that I was suppose to put a few sequins on my card. I ran out of time at class, and was going to do it a home! Anyway, at Linc n Learn, you’d know by now that we usually make the same card but in different colours. This time we made the same colours, but changed the orientation of the card around.

Stampin' Up! Home to Roost

Consensus on my Facebook Page was that the landscape card was a better fit for the Rooster.

We used Shaded Spruce, So Saffron, Mango Melody, Pumpkin Pie and Cherry Cobbler for our colour combo.

Here’s the set and a few samples from Stampin’ Up!

The Stampin’ Up! Home to Roost set can be snaffled up free with any order of $90. If you love him, you’ve got 3 days left!

Join my brand new VIP Stamp Club, very reasonable min monthly purchases. We’re starting in April but you can join any time.

Stampin’ Up! All Adorned

by Alisa Tilsner, in category Cards

4 Days to go! Stampin’ Up! All Adorned arrived at my house today. Normally I don’t play with my stamps straight away (I know!), but today I did. I love this set, and to think I wasn’t going to get it.

Stampin' Up! All Adorned

The Stamparatus makes this set a dream to work with. Just set up the stamp, and rotate the card after stamping each image.

I’ve white embossed the corners on white card, then sponged with Bermuda Bay, Coastal Cabana and Pineapple Punch. Touches of black added with Washi Tape and Sequins.

Here’s the set in full, and a couple of samples by Stampin’ Up!

You have a few days left to grab this set free.
