Celebrate Sunflowers

I want to share one of my favourite suites from the annual catalogue - Celebrate Sunflowers.  I made this card that I think really showcases both the sunflower stamp and metal dies.


I cut out multiple sunflowers in whisper white cardstock and adhere them to the card base - did you notice the different sized card? It is 7.5" x 7.5" and scored at 3.75", I will confess, I cut the wrong size but I actually like how it turned out!


Adhering the die cuts can be time consuming - dabbing liquid glue all over the die cut.  I watched a video recently from another demonstrator - sorry can't recall who - where she used a silicone mat and sponge. You dab the liquid glue with the sponge on the the die cut, I did notice you have to wipe the silicone mat between each die cut or the silicone mat gets sticky.  You should try it out, I love how quick and easy it is.

I then stamped the sunflower image using mango melody ink and used stampin' blends to colour in the image - I used mango melody, daffodil delight and soft suede.  I finished it off with some wink of stella to add some sparkle. I stamped the sentiment in early expresso and added some bumblebee ribbon and enamel dots.

I made another one, this time using magenta madness, and the card is slight longer.  The measurements are 9" x 7.5" . . .

Diamond Easel Card

 I thoroughly enjoyed making this card for an extra special lady who is turning 80 soon - one of my regular crafters (she is not on social media so I know I am safe sharing it here!).  At a recent class she had loved the Forever Fern DSP and the colours we had used, so I knew this is what I had to use to make this card for her. The card is a diamond easel fold which is very easy to make, you do need 12"x12" cardstock as you need a 6"x12" piece of cardstock to make the cardbase. I had a pack of in-colour 12"x12" cardstock, so I used a piece of Just Jade as the base colour and then used Pretty Peacock for all the mats. I selected two different DSP designs from the Forever Greenery pack. I used the Forever Fern stamp set to create a bouquet of foliage using a variety of green tone inks - Pretty Peacock, Shaded Spruce and Just Jade. I added a large Just Jade leaf at the back of the bouquet to bring everything together, added champagne foil 80 and finished off ...

Celebrating with other Leaders

I want to share the amazing family and community that Stampin' Up! is.  This past weekend I had the honor to participate in a Leaders Summit for Stampin' Up! demonstrators who are at a certain level in the company.  It was supposed to be held in New Orleans, but unfortunately that was not to be, instead they moved the summit to a virtual platform.  This is Stampin' Up! leadership team . . . I was not sure what to expect, but it was an amazing few days to listen to keynote speakers and other demonstrators.  The day involved various events and opportunities to breakout into small group discussions.  At one of these sessions, I entered the virtual room and there is the CEO of Stampin' Up! - Sara Douglas, that was a complete surprise! My big take away from the event was that Stampin' Up! sees demonstrators as individuals and not as a number, and they want to offer the best possible environment for us to grow. They see the importance of developing relationship...
