Stampin' Blends

 I am currently offering a Stampin' Blends Club and this past weekend we created this fun card using the Blends and Timeless Tropical stamp set and dies.


We used Daffodil Delight and Poppy Parade Stampin Blends to colour in the beautiful hibiscus flower image.  I showed the crafters how to lift the colour from the flower stem to make it stand out - the colour lifter is like a magic wand as it lifts colour, blends colours and adds highlights.  The leaves are coloured with Granny Apple Green.


Two other tips I shared with the crafters was how to colour ribbon with your blends and also rhinestones and other embellishments.  Now you will always have coordinating ribbon and bling for all your projects! I brushed both flowers with some Wink of Stella to add some sparkle, its hard to see it in the photo.


The bright colours coordinate so well with the subtle Soft Seafoam cardbase - this is not a colour I use too much as I tend to go for bright colours.  But I love how the final card looks.

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...
