It was recently the Onstage Stampin' Up! 2 day virtual event- how I miss the energy of gathering together - but it is always good to connect and share ideas and learn. It is 15 years since Stampin Up started in the South Pacific so we all had a little candle to light. I got to do some stamping with a friend and we celebrated together.
As part of the event we were able to pre purchase a new set which will be coming in January. It is called "Blessings of Home" and has coordinating dies and DSP and ribbon and bling! The dies cut out not only the outline of the 2 floral images but there are several detailed dies which cut smaller floral sprays - so cute.
We used the suite during the event to create 3 cards along with everyone else, but I had such a great time colouring the images that I made a few extra cards.
In this version I have used the large floral spray stamped onto crumb cake and coloured with watercolour pencils and the Chalk Marker. I have used the same stamped image very faintly on the base card for some added dimension. The embossed white layer adds a dramatic contrast and sets off the image. It's so lovely to colour I have 2 other samples for colour INKspiration which you can see here.
Happy 15th Birthday to SU in the South Pacific.
I hope you have a creative week and remember,
