Stampin' Up! Mothers Day with Art Gallery bundle


Happy Monday everyone! I thought I would start the week off with a card for Mother's Day as it is fast approaching. The Art Gallery bundle from Stampin' Up! has some lovely painterly flowers which I love to use especially with a range of colour inks offered by Stampin' Up!

The ink colours I have used on this card include Rococo Rose for the two-stamp flower where I have stamped once for the first stamp and then stamped once off for the second stamp to provide 2 shades of the same ink colour.

The leaves are from a variety of die and stamp sets in Mint Macaron, Just Jade and Garden Green card stock and ink colours. I have used Forever Fern stamp set and Forever Flourishing dies for several leaves together with dies from Pierced Blooms and Nature's Thoughts sets as well. 

The smaller flowers are also from the Pierced Blooms die set. All these will be continuing to the new Stampin' Up! 2021-22 catalogue which is available from 4th May this week! Please keep an eye out for it and I'm sure you won't be disappointed in some of the new products being offered.

The card base is Flirty Flamingo card stock and a Basic White layer that has been embossed with the Subtle 3D embossing folder (retiring soon). I have then added three layers of 2021-22 DSP Assortments in Mint Macaron that have been cut using Stitched Rectangles dies. The Mother's Day greeting is from the Dressed to Impress stamp set in Rococo Rose ink which is a retiring ink when the current catty ends tomorrow.

Thanks for stopping by and hope to catch you on Wednesday for the AWH Team Colour Creations Showcase and the colour Smoky Slate. Have a great week ahead!

Sending positive thoughts

Hi everyone! I just wanted to extend a warm welcome to my blog and my first post!  I have only just joined with Stampin' Up! as a demonstrator but have been making cards using their delightful products for about 10 years and so have finally decided to make the leap and join up to share what I love to do.

Since the pandemic and our city's lock-down beginning in late March I had really wanted to send some cards to several friends to let them know that I am always thinking of them even though we may not be able to have our 'girly' catch-ups in person.

The cards were made using the Positive Thoughts stamp set which includes pretty images along with comforting greetings.

Positive Thoughts card

Cardstock colours used were Night of Navy, Blushing Bride, Basic Gray, Whisper White and a wisp of silver foil card stock. 

The ink colours use were Night of Navy, Smoky Slate and a retired ink called Powder Pink as my Blushing Bride ink was missing in action.


  


The stamped images were cut out using the matching die set called Nature's Thoughts. And I have added some Rhinestone Basic Jewels for some bling. If you wish to shop with me for any of the Stampin' Up! products used on this post you can click on the link to my online Stampin' Up! store.  

You may also wish to say hello and send an email if you have any questions or looking to purchase products.

Happy crafting until next time
