#onstage2018 Needlepoint Nook samples #2

Here's a few more samples from my Needlepoint Nook Product Spotlight Display Stamping. 
A mix of simple and more layered cards including 2 masculine cards.
I always try and use every set for both Male and Female cards- it can be a challenge!! but it's a good way to look at your set with fresh eyes.

The lighting wasn't great over the boards at the venue but here they are all laid out together. I'll write them all up over the next few days, today is the Olive section!!


I thought the wooden frames looked like an embroidery hoop so this is simply placed over some DSP. I stamped the Sahara Sand background in versamark with the Burlap stamp for the fabric effect.
For this Old Olive version I clear embossed the Burlap stamp as the background to give the impression of flowers embroidered on fabric. I love how you can see the stitches in the flowers, and I used the thumping technique with markers to get the multitone leaves behind. I love the multicoloured bouquet, and the inside is decorated with more elements too.

The plain navy and olive graphic pages in the DSP pack are perfect for masculine cards. This one uses the little leaf image for some random repeat stamping and the diecut leaf image as well as 2 simple corrugated embossed strips. The olive thread is used for a tassel rather than a bow. I love that the font is versatile for both masculine and feminine cards.
This next masculine sample also uses the leaf diecut- and by using the Mutipurpose Adhesive Sheets you can also use the little punched out leaf shapes over some simple sponging. I used the straight line stitching elements to create some geometric embossing on the foil and that little accent is just enough. I love that the label punch also fits many of the sentiments from the set.


I'll have the boxes written up for tomorrow with links to the instructions. Be sure to have registered for the email updates using the "follow me by email" feature on the left side panel of this page.


I hope you have a creative week and remember,

 post something pretty!"

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,...

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.

CTC#48 Who doesn't love new DSP

Welcome back to CASEing the Catty for this round. You may have come from Rachel's beautiful project  or you maybe starting here. There are lots of great posts to visit. This week we are using new Designer Series paper from the Holiday Catalogue - and who doesn't love a pack of new paper? The problem of course is which one to choose.... followed by the problem of actually having to CUT into a pristine pack. ....I know you all know what I mean. I have lots of photos for you today to try and show off some of the designs, but it's not easy to capture and they always look so much better in real life. I have purchased two packs - the Happy Haunting pack on page 47, which I was inspired to get purely from the background piece on the Lighthearted Leaves card on page 44. I don't celebrate Halloween, nor am I usually all that partial to Orange shades, but maybe that's changing! because I really like the designs. The pack has several papers that are specifically...
