Something Saturday - Elastic Bands

-

 Hi there Creators

Yep I'm using elastic bands to stamp with this week!  Actually you can get some really cool patterns for your backgrounds by twisting rubber bands round your clear blocks and using them to stamp.

It's quite a short video this week, and I don't finish off the cards so here they are for you to check out....

this is the one I had made up to begin with using the really cute Sale-a-Bration set  Hippest Hippos, I've coloured in the little ballerina with Stampin' Blends , and it really makes her pop out of the page!  I've also used the Decorative Circle Punch to punch her out.

HIppest Hippos, Stampin' Up!
The other 2 cards were an "either/or" situation as I ended up double siding them with pattern, so this is the side I chose for this one, and it the blue streaks reminded me of ice, so I couldn't resist using this Snow Crystal Stamp (have to admit it's one of my favourites at the moment!)
Snow Crystal, Stampin' Up!

 

This one was also stamped on both sides, but I really liked the grungy look of this side, so I paired it up with these lovely bold words from Biggest Wish stamp set (one of my "go to" stamp sets when I'm looking for some useful words), and as I didn't want to overstate things with embellishments I chose the Classic Matte Dots (nicely understated!)😉

Biggest Wish, Stampin' Up!

Let me know if you have a go, and if you feel like sharing I'd love to see your creations 😊

If you missed the video here it is:

I hope this inspires you to create

God Bless love

 Hi there Creators, Well today I thought we'd check out something from the new catalogue, which will be live in just a few days (7th Jan). I saw the Mixed Media Florals Memories & More Card Pack in the catalogue and thought they looked lovely, and yes they really are gorgeous! (link prob won't work till 7th) Anyway in the video I show off all the cards in the pack, and mention that I am doing share packs for various things in the new catalogue (Designer Paper, Ephemera Packs, Embellishments, Ribbons and this Memories & More) See more details at the end or send me a message. And here are the cards I made up using the Basic White Assorted Memories & More Cards & Envelopes : This firs one uses one of the larger cards, a couple of stickers, the stamp set "simply said" for the saying and some of the pretty Riverside Irregular Pearls . Then this card is a small one, using the same stamp set "Simply Said" , a sticker and some more of the Riversid...

Something Saturday - Twisted Star Ornament

-
Image
 Hi there Creators I saw this cool star ornament in another video, and had a bit of a play around with it, ending up with this.... (with a retired Designer Series Paper) Then I ended up making this one (somewhat puffier 🤣) in the video with the current Natures Sweetness Specialty Designer Series Paper  Ok, to make this you'll need 16 strips of 15cm x 1cm Designer Paper & glue (I used tombow) Use 8 of the pieces for each side of the star, you twist them like a Breast Cancer ribbon, but with a small "head section" and have a gap of around 4cm at the free end, and around 4cm of the 2 free arms (if that makes sense, it should if you've seen the video!) you then glue 8 of the "heads" together to make the middle of the star then the tails glue together to form the points. once you've made up 2 of these, you then glue them back to back, adding a piece of twine into the last point If you missed the video here it is:  I hope this inspires you to create one t...

GDP #261

 Hi there Creators, The Global Design Project #261 challenge this week is a colour challenge: (check out the link to see what others have done)   So I thought I'd join in again, and try out a card type I've seen someone else show off recently  I know it would have been on one of the Stampin' Up! facebook pages, I can't remember exactly what she used, but I liked the 3D'ness of it 😄 and I have no idea what the card is called possibly Diorama card would work?  anyway I set to work trying to work out how she'd done it (although I suspect if I could re-find hers she'd probably already done instructions lol)  I always seem to take the hard way..... So here is my "take" on it using these colours.  The inside is the impressive bit..... The outside not so impressive, but check out that gorgeous Gilded Autumn Specialty Designer Series Paper !  I've teamed it up with the Ornate Layers Dies , and the super soft ribbon from the Basket Weave & Metall...
