Introducing the new In-colours!!

 If you are new to Stampin' Up! you may not know that this is an exciting time - the launch of the new Annual Catalogue - and with the launch comes new ink colours!!  Every year we get five new inks colours, these colours are only available for two years.  Here is my new catalogue - check out all the tabs where I have marked the products I have on my wish list:)  If you would like a catalogue, let me know and I will get one to you. The new in-colours are Polished Pink, Pale Papaya, Soft Succulent, Evening Evergreen and Fresh Freesia. The In-colours are avilable in ink, cardstock, embellishments, ribbon and Designer Series Paper.  I made these cards to showcase the new colours along with the ribbon and embellishments. I used one of the new stamp sets to create the cards - Spiral Die - I love the bold pattern and the stamp is only $23 which is an amazing price point. Check out my online store on May 4 to get your hands on the new In-colours and all the other amazi...

Chopping Up Your DSP!

 If you are like me, I love DSP and often find it difficult to cut it up and use it. Kylie Bertucci, an Australian SU Demonstrator, recently encouraged you to chop up your DSP - I took the plunge! I chopped a few sheets of DSP into 4"x4" and then cut the square in half in various directions. This is what I created. If you chopped up a whole package of DSP into 4"x4" squares, you have enough to make 108 cards!!!! Then all you need to do is add a sentiment, some ribbon, and embellishments.   I made the sentiments easy too - I used the Many Messages bundle - which allows you to stamp and cut 19 sentiments all at once. I used the white kraft ink on black cardstock, I thought the black would coordinate with a variety of colours.  I then added some flowers and embellishments to finish off the cards. A super simple way to make a batch of cards for all occasions - give it a try! Product List Many Messages Bundle [ 156272 ] $68.25 Dandy Garden 6"...

One more Darling Donkey!

I will be honest that I did not initially fall in love with the Darling Donkeys, but as soon as I started using the stamp set I could not stop! Todays project includes two FREE sale-a-bration items - Flowers & Fields DSP and of course the Darling Donkey stamp set. The Flowers and Fields DSP has some lovely patterns and of course they all coordinate with the fabulous Stampin' Up! inks and cardstock.  For this card I used Cherry Cobbler for the cardbase - I have not used this colour for a long time, it coordinates beautifully with this DSP pattern. I also did a simple fancy fold - cut 1.5" off the bottom of the cardbase and then another 2" strip which you can discard. The stitched oval holds the bottom piece in place. I stamped one of the donkey images using Memento ink and then used the Stampin' Blends to colour the donkey - for this one I used the crumb cake duo blends and real red.  To add some sparkle I brushed on some wink of stella on the donkey - which you ca...

Day two of Sale-a-bration

 Today I am going to showcase the Flower & Field DSP, item #158157 - isn't this paper beautiful?! Each sheet has a coordinating pattern on the back, which makes it super easy to make amazing projects - just add a sentiment and some ribbon or embellishments and you are done. Here are a few cards I made by doing exactly that, I used some coordinating cardstock and ink.  In this card I layered with a whisper white mat and the inner one is the same colour as the cardbase - crushed curry.  I added another pop of colour by using granny apple green for the sentiment. For these cards I choose the same flower pattern, but used different backgrounds.  The first one is the flip side of the flower paper.  I used a bermuda bay cardbase and then stamped the sentiment in the same colour on flirty flamingo.  For the other card I used the bermuda bay ombre DSP - check out yesterday's post for projects using that paper - and I even used the ombre paper to stamp the senti...
