Little Elephant | Stamp to Share International Blog Hop

Why hello my Sweets!

I am back this hop hopping along with some Stampin' Up! International All-Stars! Each month we select a product from the current Stampin' Up! catalogues in order to inspire you and get you creating.

This month, we have selected the ever so cute Little Elephant Bundle. It just so happens that cute is right up my alley and as such this was a must have item!

A couple days ago, I did a guest blog post featuring this set so be sure to hop over to this Creative Scrapbooker Magazine blog post to check out those additional projects!

However, today's project was inspired by the colour scheme of the Stampin' Up! En Route product suite. You'll notice that my projects has several layers. I am counting 7 but who really can tell. So much dimension that I wonder if this project will ever fit in an envelope.... But all I say to that is #challengeaccepted

This stamp set and punch make life easy for you.
You stamp.
You punch.
Ta-Da!
And I love easy.
You'll be knocking out cards no time!

Thanks for dropping by today - hope you have a wonderful day! But be sure to keep hopping along to Moira before you go!

Happy Crafting,

Cathy

Petal Palette | Stamp to Share International Design Team Blog Hop

2018 is bringing new friends and opportunities.

Today I am very happy to share that I am blogging with the Stamp to Share International Design Team Blog Hop. It's quite an honour as these ladies are incredibly talented Stampin' Up! demonstrators from around the world. Feeling the love for sure - but definitely some big shoes to fill.

Each month a current Stampin' Up! product suite is selected to inspire you. This month the team selected the Petal Palette Bundle included in the newly released 2018 Occasions Catalogue.

PROJECT DETAILS://

This project was created using watercolour paper, refill ink and an aquapainter. On a stamping block, I put a couple drops of refill ink of each of these colours: melon mambo, tempting turquiose and old olive. Using my aqua painter I coloured each element of my stamped image heat embossed with white embossing powder. To make the image pop, I applied some blue on the outskirts of the image. And it didn't take long for this card to be done.

Thanks so much for dropping by today - But don't stop here as Moira McIlroy is going to show you another project to bring the Stampin' Up! Petal Palette Product Suite to life!
