Something Saturday - DSP & Blends

Image
 Hi There Creators Today I thought I'd show off an idea that Claire our Stampin' Up! Demonstrator Development Manager showed us in a workshop the other day, I took it a bit further in one of my cards, let me know which card is your favourite! If you'd like to see all the goodies I used on these cards click here:  DSP & Blends Turtles Cards Here are the cards I ended up creating The first 2 I've just used the blends to go round each of the images on the designer paper, I really love the way the images get highlighted from it, almost a "stained glass effect" This first card I also used the blend on the white card base under the Designer Paper to give a border This second card I used the Blend around the edge of the Designer paper to draw a line  (I did use a ruler to do this!) again to create a border. Then this last one I've gone round the edges again with the darker Pool Party blend, but then blended in the lighter one in all the gaps. I actually did g...

Something Saturday - Your Day to Shine Kit

 Hi There Creators

Today we're onto the last of the 3 kits I bought a while back, this one is Your Day to Shine card Kit.  Again it's a pretty one, no stamp set this time hence it's cheaper at only $25, but you still get to make 9 cards with it! which at $2.78 per card is still cheaper for a decent card than what you'd buy in a shop! Plus you have the Crafting fix time and you're able to say "yes, I made this"😍

So here are the 3 styles of card it officially creates, although I have changed a few elements around, so if you do want to see the proper "official" way click on the link above 🤣

this first card is a mini card (with matching envelope) once again beautiful bling with these cards!  This card is pretty much true to their suggestion

This next card got turned around a bit as I wasn't terribly happy with their design, I didn't think the butterfly stood out so well on their card (I could be wrong - seems unlikely but you never know.....🤣)

And this last one I had to cut the foliage as I was a bit disappointed that on my card it would have pretty much been hidden by the blue flowers.

Anyway I also created a couple of other cards using these scraps:

And here they are I've paired it up with the Fully Flowering Ephemera Pack, the fabulous Simply Said Stamp set (one of my go to sets for sayings!) and not forgetting a bit of bling: Neutrals Adhesive Backed sequins.

Have to admit every time I play with the Ephemera packs I end up getting really into it, I think it's because they're so much fun to pair up together! (and cheap at only $14 a pack, you get heaps to play with!)

Anyway if you missed the video, here it is:


I hope this inspires you to either purchase a kit or play with what you already have

God Bless love
