Something Saturday - Citrus Blooms

 Hi There Creators Today I thought it would be fun to try out a technique I haven't done in ages - Paper Tole, using the new Citrus Blooms stamp set and dies.  Every so often I come across a stamp set that inspires me to do a spot of Paper Tole'ing, and this one has lots of dimension to it perfect for this technique. To those of you who are saying "Paper Tole-what-ing?"  Paper Tole is a way of taking a picture and literally adding dimension by having several images of the same picture a and cutting out the various parts of it and laying them up, so the picture literally builds up and gives a 3D type image. I thought it would make a beautiful framed piece (and a nice gift for a friend) - let me know what you think.... I did team it up with the fabulous sayings from Unbounded Love Stamp set (the dies that go with this stamp set are a must have!)   Then to create shiny bits I've added some of the fine tip glue pen which dries shiny clear😍 I also said in the video I&

Hi Stampers
I've been meaning to enter the Global Design Project Challenge for a while, I did a few quite a long time ago, and keep getting the emails and forgetting, so this time it went on my list!, and I combined it with my thankyou card for the month!, so if you order from me in November, you can expect to receive this at some point.

However first up, the challenge...... This time it's a CASE "Copy and Selectively Edit" by Louise Sharp, here is her card.

I liked the layout of her card, so that is what I chose to go with for mine, I've also included a "sneak peek" of a new product called "Bloom by Bloom, which I received (for free) recently at the Stampin' Up! conference called "On Stage"  and here it is.....
I made 2 versions one in White and one in Vanilla, so then of course had to use 2 different ribbons! I think I prefer the white with the polka dot tulle ribbon over the Vanilla with the Calypso Coral Ombre Ribbon, which do you prefer?  The background paper is the beautiful Petal Promenade Designer Series Paper.

Also thought I'd mention how I created the graded effect on the flower
I started off inking the whole stamp with Flirty Flamingo, then daubed Melon Mambo onto the bottom of it, then stamped, giving that different grades of pink look, you have to make sure you dab it and not swipe, as it doesn't work if you swipe, you end up with an incomplete image.

Soon Sale a Bration and the new Occasions Catalogues will be here! if you have ordered from me in the last year, you will be receiving the new Catalogues through the mail (or in person) once I am able to order them, if not or you're not sure, and you'd like me to get one to you, do let me know, and I'll make sure I get them to you

Don't forget if you order during November and your order is over $125 you will qualify for my free Bonus gift, your choice of a Shimmer Paint, if your order is between $125 and $250 pop this hostess code in  RJZEGMNQ if it's over $250 you'll qualify for free hostess $'s for yourself, so don't put the hostess code in!

 I hope you have been inspired to create with this!
God Bless love
