Ink.Stamp.Share June Blog Hop - 3D...




 Good afternoon and thank you for joining our June Hop.  This month we have been tasked with making a 3D project.  I love making 3d projects as it always amazes me how we can make such amazing things from flat pieces of card!

I have something a little special for you today.  It is called a Tower Explosion Box.  I have wanted to make one of these for ages but never seemed to get around to it but I have made it as a display piece for my Sail Away Fun Day class which is actually happening as we speak!

Here is the box...




It looks like a normal gift box, albeit rather large, but wait, when you take off the lid...


There's another box, but wait...


And wait...there's more...



I won't lie, this is a labour of love, lots of head scratching and cardstock/DSP but I think it is worth it.  I wanted to show off the DSP so I haven't over decorated the box but you could go wild and decorate all sides if you wanted to.

I have seen a fair few of these doing the rounds recently so I just searched Tower Explosion Box on You Tube and adjusted the measurements accordingly to create the size I wanted.  Maybe one day I will write my own tutorial using my measurements, but for now....I am going to pass you on to Linda Handford who I am sure has something amazing to share with you today!

Happy Stampin'

Stamp 'n Hop - Hello 2019/20 Annual Catalogue...


Good morning and welcome to another Stamp 'n Hop blog hop.  This month we are celebrating the release of the 2019-2020 Annual Catalogue.  You may be joining me from the amazing Karen or starting your hop here but either way sit back and enjoy some inspiration from the new Stampin' Up! Annual Catalogue!

Today is a great day as not only am I joining lots of amazing demonstrators from around the world to celebrate the new catalogue but today is also my birthday, yay!

As demonstrators we get to see and purchase some of the new items featured in the new catalogue prior to the general release and the one stamp set I fell in love with and decided to share with you today is called "Over the Moon" (149331).

OVER THE MOON CLING STAMP SET

How cute are they!!!

Here is my card.


I designed this card for a card swap I recently co-ordinated here in the UK.  I used the Buffalo Check background stamp (151372), stamped in Memento Black (132708) on to Cherry Cobbler cardstock.  I then used Stampin' Blends to colour in my image.

I hope you have enjoyed my project today and I am now going to pass you on to Jacqui who I am sure has something lovely to share with you.

Happy Stampin'

Ink. Stamp. Share May Blog Hop - Monochrome...

 
Good afternoon and thank you for joining us today for the Ink. Stamp. Share Monochrome Blog Hop.
 
I love Monochrome projects, it is amazing the amount of detail you can get by using just one palette of colour.
 
Today I have chosen to use a new stamp set from the soon to be released Annual Catalogue for 2019/20.  It from a suite called Magnolia Lane and the stamps are called Good Morning Magnolia.
 
Here is my card...
 
 
 
 
I coloured my image using just the Light and Dark Crumb Cake Blender Pens with a touch of Soft Suede.
 
I hope you like it.
 
I am now going to pass you on to Linda who I am sure has something lovely to share with you today.
 
Happy Stampin!

Ink & Share Blog Hop - Goodbye...


Good morning and welcome to another Ink & Share Scrapbook Blog Hop.  This month we are saying goodbye to some of our favourite products from the Stampin' Up! Catalogues to make way for some new goodies.

I have chosen to use the beautiful Needlepoint Nook Suite.  I absolutely love this suite, especially the DSP which is so colourful and beautiful.

Here is my page....



 



I made the little flower centres by simply cutting a fringe in some Crushed Curry cardstock and rolling it up tightly before fanning out the trimmed edge.

I am now going to pass you on to Colleen who I am sure has something amazing to share with you today.

Happy Scrappin'

SDBH - May - Annual Catalogue Sneak Peek...


Good evening, tonight I am joining in with the Stampin' Dreams Blog Hop for May where we are sharing everything 'new' with some amazing Sneak Peaks from the 2019/20 Annual Catalogue coming on 4 June!!!

One of the many advantages of being a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator is that we get to see the goodies several weeks in advance of their launch and have the opportunity to purchase a selection of these goodies.

Today I am sharing with you a suite which really caught my eye called Come Sail Away.  It has a fantastic stamp set, dies, paper, embossing folder, Memories & More cards, twine and embellishments.

This stamp set is great for using with different background techniques.  The first technique I used was to mix some re-inker in Night of Navy and Balmy Blue together with some Frost White shimmer paint.  I screwed up some tissue paper and blotted on to some Whisper White cardstock.




I then teamed it up with one of the cards from the Memories & More cards, added some twine and an embellishment to complete.

I then used a technique which I cannot for the life of me remember the name of where you stamp your images repeatedly until there is no ink left on your stamp.  I did this in several colours until I had covered my background.



Finally, this one isn't a background technique but I mixed some Night of Navy ink with some Frost White Shimmer Paint and dabbed it all over the laser cut frame from the Memories & More cards.  The lighthouse is also from the Memories & More cards.  I attached my greeting under the background paper on the inside of my card and added a little magnet which holds it closed.  The other magnet is hidden under the wheel.



I think I am a bit addicted to this suite and I hope I may have inspired you a little today.  Please continue through the hop to see all the amazing sneak peak projects.

Thanks for dropping by.

Jo
