Colour Theory Paint Chip Cards and Super Sweet Pretty Label gift bags.


Today I would love to show you some more of the cards and samples I had at my Catalogue Launch.
I am really grateful to the many creative and generous people out there who share their projects so freely. (Yes I am a self confessed Pinterest Stalker!!)
I'd like to thank Lyssa Griffin Zwolanek from Song of My Heart Stamper for her gorgeous Paint Swatch cards which inspired me to make this collection. I think it's the turned over last piece with the paint crackle that makes it so appealing.
The Colorful Seasons stamp set is super easy to use to create so many different looks, and the Label Me Pretty bundle has a whole variety of looks and styles too which I have tried to demonstrate here.






 The little bags are super cute and very easy to create.
You need a square of DSP 6 x 6

  •  score along one side at 1"
  • rotate and score to the one inch line at 13/4", 23/4", 41/2" and 51/2" all the way to the end
  • cut along the score lines to the 1" line to create the base flaps, cut the corner tab away
  • adhere the long edges together to form a tube
  • glue the flaps together to form the base
  • squeeze the tops together to form the bag, and hold closed with a peg/binder clip/library clip
I saw these first created by Crafty Caroline Creates and she has a link to a video on her website, they were so cute I had to have a go myself. And after my catalogue launch one of my team ceated a whole set for her daughter's birthday party this week.How cute are these! I know Katherine's daughter and her friends are going to love them/

If you would like more details about any of the projects I am happy to share. The products I have used are all itemised below and if you click on any of the images you will get more detail about each of them
Thanks for looking today, and remember 

"don't just post online,
post something pretty!"

GDP #277 a gorgeous colour combination with Pretty Perennials

The Pretty Perennials Stampset is gorgeous to use on its own but the floral dies really do add a little something special. My card this week matches the colour challenge at the Global Design Project. I have stamped directly onto the Oh so Ombre DSP which is a free Sale A Bration item with a qualifying purchase for the rest of this month. I love the tone on tone stamping for added depth. I have gone over the Happy with Wink of Stella but it's not easy to photograph. The teeny heart is a teeny leftover of some retired Blushing Bride Glimmer paper and I have also incorporated other retired embellishments like the library clip and crystal button - I do love to use them up. Pink and florals - a perfect match. Here's what I used. Product List Pretty Perennials Photopolymer Stamp Set [ 154435 ] $31.00 Pretty Perennials Bundle [ 156234 ] $78.25 Oh So Ombre 6" X 6" (15.2 X 15.2 Cm) Designer Series Paper [ 155225 ] $0.00 Roco...

New In colour 2025-2027 cards and the FABULOUS Extraordinary Flora Washi Tape.

Don't you love it when a single product creates enough elements to decorate a bunch of cards at one time? The Extraordinary Flora Washi tape is one of those products. I created these for my upcoming Catalogue Launch. I put the Washi onto Basic Beige to cut these flowers and love how it coordinates with the Basic Beige card base. To create these cards I trimmed 2.5cm from the front edge and adhered a 3.5cm strip of DSP to the inside of the card to give an added layer. These were easy to put together. Darling Duckling Secret Sea Strawberry Slush Timid Tiger Cloud Clover June 3 - 30 Stampin Up has an amazing offer where you can get 50% off any second product from a suite. So for example if you were to purchase the Extraordinary Flora Die you would be able to buy the tape at 50% off. Please reach out if you want more information on this great deal. You can see all the available suites in my online store. I am loving all the new colours.  I hope you have a creative week and remember,...

Colour INKspiration #11, lovely colour combo

I've had a bit of fun this morning playing with a fe new products. I LOVE the new embossing paste- and I've been waiting for ages for SU to bring out some materials for mixed media.  This paste is light and very easy to spread it dries quickly and gives a beautiful finish It can be easily coloured with our refill inks to create a perfect match. This weeks colours are just lovely together.  In my card I have used marina mist ink to colour the paste and used the brick wall mask. This is spread over a watercolour wash using Marina Mist- I just love the layers of colour. To create the leaves I used the 3 ink colours from the challenge and the baby wipe technique to get the variegated leaves using the Colorful Seasons stamp set and framelits. I don't currently have any Early Espresso cardstock but I do have some very old (retired) Early Espresso heat emboss powder, and I have used this for the sentiment on vellum. Of course I ended up with ...
