Stamping Sunday Blog Hop - Favourite Saleabration items

Hi there and welcome,

wow, I hadn't realised I had not blogged for so long! So sorry about that.

I have been busy creating on my YouTube channel, so if you don't follow me over there it's worth a visit here

This month all the hoppers are focusing on Saleabration.  For those of you who don't know what that is, it's the time of year Stampin' Up! give away FREE products.

Here are the 3 I have used today... sorry couldn't pick just one! They are all FREE with qualifying orders.

Lily Impressions Designer Series Paper

 

Power of of Hope Bundle

Small Bloom Punch

Please watch the video to understand the process for making these.  Sometimes I like to get a few co-ordinating papers and products and only use those.  I created my own background papers from the stamps from Power of Hope then had some fun cutting and gluing strips.  I used some Gold Foil cardstock and the gold faceted gems for some accents.

It was fun using up my scraps to create this little gift bag.

Thank you so much for popping over, please check out the other hoppers here...

{One sheet wonder Beautiful Friendship- 1 sheet 4 cards}

Have you ever heard the phrase... 'Sorry, not sorry'?

I'm afraid it applies to this weeks One Sheet Wonder.

It's using this stamp set... again!

Sorry if you've had enough of it now, however I hope it inspires you and shows how versatile it is.

I met up with a friend for lunch at a local garden centre this week, we were able to look around their gardens, and loved looking at and smelling some beautiful roses.  Can't help but share them with you now.

   

Aren't they beautiful?

Here is the video...

Here are the photos.

{One Sheet Wonder Wednesday - Needle and Thread - Stamp placement tutorial}

A slightly late blog post, sorry about that.

I didn't have a video ready for Wednesday, so I decided to "go live" on my YouTube channel.  If you don't follow me it's worth clicking the subscribe button to get notifications of when I upload videos, and if I go live, you can do this right now, by clicking here

It ended up being a slightly different One Sheet Wonder.  I created 4 individual looks from one sheet and also talked through my creative process.  I hope it will help any of you who feel a bit daunted about how to place images to create a professional look.

The video is about 40 minutes long, however on some devices and if you are watching via a PC you can click on the settings button (looks like a flower) and change the speed at which you watch it.  I often watch videos speeded up, saves a lot of time, but you don't loose out on the content by skipping.

Here are the cards

The stamp set I used is

 Needle and Thread

and the Crackle stamp.

The colours used were

Mint Macaron

Sahara Sand

Lovely Lipstick and

Soft Suede

The new Spring/Summer catalogue is available now and can be viewed here

{New In Colours 2018}

I love colour, I also especially love having new colours to play with on my craft desk.  It invigorates me and helps me fall in love again with other colours as I play with new colour combinations. 

Here are a series of cards focusing particularly on the new in colours from Stampin' Up! and how they they look compared to other shades. 

(Sorry about the slight variation in my lighting)

 

 

 

 

 

Here is a video explaining the new colours and how they sit with others.
