CI#145 Gorgeously Made Easel Card

It's time for another play with some Colour INKspiration colours. 
These are certainly vibrant and eye-catching together.

I don't have Lemon Lime Twist - I must be one of the few demos who doesn't love it! Instead I have used Parakeet Party which is similar tone but more vibrant.

I have created an easel card for  this project- one of my favourite card styles and you can see plenty on my page of Fancy Fold instructions above. (in the heading tabs across the top of the page it's the far right)



I have used the fabulous Gorgeously Made stampset and dies which is becoming a firm favourite for me. You can see some other cards we made in class recently here.

I love how easily you can layer the images over each other for a quick artsy look, and the inside and envelope are easy to quickly dress up with your second and third generation stamping after you stamp the front of the card. I stamped the images then ran the whole piece through the Embossing Folder before adding some sponging with both blues. The accent leaf spray is diecut from the IN Colour Glimmer paper and adds a nice sparkle. The sentiments come from the Warm Welcome set and I love how simple they are. 



My standing easel place holder is some cardstock and some more glimmer paper with some accent piece stamping behind. 


If you would like to join in the colour fun just take a photo of your creation and share it with us on our Facebook page. We'd love to see what you create.

I hope you have a creative week and remember, 
"don't just post online,
 post something pretty!"
cheers, Liz

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...
