Monthly Team Blog Hop November 2019

12/11/201911/11/2019

Welcome to my blog again today. I feel very privileged to be hopping with this wonderful group of International Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators with Monthly Team Blog Hop November 2019.

I have a FREE Download for you today. Lots of colour combinations for colouring the rose. Scroll down for your FREE Download

This week I’m sharing cards using products from the Christmastime Is Here Suite Bundle which aren’t Christmas – so anything else goes. I hope you enjoy them

Monthly Team Blog Hop November 2019

For this card use:

Tip: Use the Roses Dies to die cut the Christmastime Is Here Specialty Designer Series Paper. This saves you colouring the image. The other flower can be easily die-cut with one of the Layering sets of dies.

Tip: Tie the Gold 1/4″ (6.4 Mm) Shimmer Ribbon and the Whisper White Solid Baker’s Twine together to give a bit of a different look to a bow.

More Monthly Team Blog Hop November 2019

Tip: Use left-over pieces of Christmastime Is Here Specialty Designer Series Paper on Whisper White A4 Card Stock for the card insert. Then use images from Accented Blooms Cling-Mount Stamp Set with Cherry Cobbler Classic Stampin’ Pad to stamp on the Whisper White C6 Envelopes.

Stamp the sentiment from Accented Blooms Cling-Mount Stamp Set in Cherry Cobbler Classic Stampin’ Pad on a scrap of Whisper White A4 Card Stock .and then punch out using the Tailored Tag Punch

Add Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the sentiment and the flower.

Sketch Challenge

For this card use:

It’s a great sketch, isn’t it? It lends itself to so many variations. For my vertical strip I have used Gold Foil Sheets with the lattice type die from the Roses Dies

My vertical strip is made up of looped double Gold 1/4″ (6.4 Mm) Shimmer Ribbon which is adhered with Tear & Tape Adhesive under the floral piece

Tip: Use left-over strips of Christmastime Is Here Specialty Designer Series Paper to decorate the inside of your card. I used an image from the Christmas Rose Stamp Set with Mossy Meadow Classic Stampin’ Pad to stamp on the Whisper White C6 Envelopes.

More Sketch Challenge

Tip: Use Versamark Pad to stamp the image from Christmas Rose Stamp Set on Fluid 100 Watercolor Paper and then heat set with Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder. The colours I used to water wash the image were:

Brayering

07/11/201907/11/2019

Welcome to another Simple Stamping Techniques. The Design Team are sharing inspiration on Brayering. Hop along with us and leave a comment if you can.

Brayering

For this card use:

Tip: Always start with your Sponge Brayers off to the side of the Shimmery White A4 Card Stock. This ensures you don’t get too much ink in the one spot.

Tip: When inking up your Sponge Brayers roll it in one direction on your ink pad, lift and start again. This will avoid the build-up of ink in one spot on your Sponge Brayers

Tip: Start with a light coverage of ink. It’s easier to put more ink on than it is to take ink off

Ink up the Sponge Brayers with Mossy Meadow Classic Stampin’ Pad and then roll it onto the Shimmery White A4 Card Stock. Gradually build up the colour until you are happy with it.

Add some Early Espresso Classic Stampin’ Pad down the bottom of the card using another Sponge Brayers. Again build up the colour until you’re happy.

I was looking for an earthy type background for these gorgeous roses.

More Brayering

Finally, emboss your brayered card with the Subtle 3D Embossing Folder and adhere to the front of the card using Multipurpose Liquid Glue

Build a Scene

06/11/201905/11/2019

Welcome to another Wednesday Blog Hop with the Latte Girls who are sharing projects which Build a Scene. I made my own by combining a few of my favourite Stampin’ Up! products

Build a Scene

Use:

Tip: Die cut your Sparkle Glimmer Paper using the die from In The Woods Dies, a little longer than you want it. Trim off any excess after you have embossed your tree images

Tip: Emboss with Shimmer White Stampin’ Emboss Powder on Night Of Navy A4 Card Stock to one side so you have enough space to add a die-cut tree from In The Woods Dies. Adhere the tree using Fine-Tip Glue Pen and then place a clear acrylic block on top of it until it is glued down.

Don’t forget to stamp inside the card and on the Whisper White C6 Envelopes using Crumb Cake Classic Stampin’ Pad and the deer from Dashing Deer Cling-Mount Stamp Set

More Build a Scene

Tip: Use embellishments such as Frosted & Clear Epoxy Droplets and Silver Metallic Thread to add a special touch to your card

Christmastime Heirloom Frame

05/11/201905/11/2019

Welcome to my blog again today. I’m using products from the Christmastime Is Here Suite Bundle this week and today I have coordinated it with one of my other favourite products with Christmastime Heirloom Frame

Christmastime Heirloom Frame

Use:

Tip: Did you know the large die from the Roses Dies die cuts this rose image from the Christmastime Is Here Specialty Designer Series Paper? Well, it does and try using the Layering Squares Dies for the other image on the same sheet of D.S.P. (There are 2 tips 🙂 )

Tip: When embossing a sentiment, use your Embossing Buddy on both the sentiment from the Christmas Rose Stamp Set (English) and the Whisper White A4 Card Stock. Heat set using your Heat Tool and Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder

More Christmastime Heirloom Frame

Tip: When using the Heirloom Frames Dies And 3D Embossing Folder, die-cut a scrap and adhere it to the centre of the embossing folder. This will make lining up your die-cut shape easier. Always die-cut and then emboss.

Tip: Place a doubled up Stampin’ Dimensionals in the centre of the flower to take into account the single Stampin’ Dimensionals under the Heirloom Frames Dies And 3D Embossing Folder.

Holly Jolly Mercury Glass

01/11/201903/11/2019
