SEE MY SWAPS FROM THE 2020 ANNUAL STAMPIN’ UP! CATALOGUE!

The last 2 posts I have shared swaps that I received from a Card Swap I joined in on with the 2020 Stampin’ Up! Catalogue. If you missed them do pop back and see them in the last posts.

Today I thought I would share more details on the cards I created for the swaps.

This card was for the Round 1 Swap Group. I have used the set Comfort and Hope.

I picked the colours for this card from some of the Designer Series Paper from last year I think.  Now I can’t remember which pack.  The colours are Mint Macaron, Blackberry Bliss and Mango Melody.  I wouldn’t have thought to put these colours together.

The Stitched circle with the swirly circles needed something underneath and I didn’t have any Blackberry Bliss Ribbon so I diecut 2 little banners from the Tasteful Labels Dies set and added them underneath.  It just adds another element.

I love sending cards in the mail “Just Because” so I really like this Paper Hug sentiment.

My swap card for Round 2 Group  I used the Tasteful Touches Bundle.

The colours used were Crumb Cake and Mint Macaron. When I was assembling the card I thought it was missed something so I added a vellum scallop circle using the die in the Tasteful Labels Dies set. It helps “ground” the flower. I used one of the other dies in the set to diecut the white  card with the flower stamped on it.

The Mint Macaron card was embossed with the Greenery Embossing Folder.  I added a little Linen Thread bow to finish it off.

I love joining in swaps and seeing all the amazing creations that I receive. It’s great getting the new ideas.

Have a great week. I hope it’s a creative one for you.

PS. Don’t forget Bonus Days are on this month.

2020 ANNUAL CATALOGUE SWAPS – ROUND 2!

Yesterday I shared some Card Swaps that I received recently.  That was Round 1 of the Swaps.  If you missed that be sure to head back a post.

Today is Round 2.  I think the Forever Fern Bundle was a popular choice for this round. Once again I am not mentioning individual names for each swap but Thank You to those who swapped with me.

Lots of flowery cards.  The card on the top left on the photos above is a Dutch Fold card which is cool.  The one below that is a shaker card with the Celebrate Sunflowers Bundle. My swap for this round is the card on the bottom right in the photo just above with the Tasteful Touches Bundle.

I will share more details on my swaps in next post so be sure to stop by.

Happy Stamping,

Jenny

PS  Don’t forget it’s Bonus Days time.  Every $90 you spend in July you receive a $9 voucher to redeem in August.  If you need help to place your order I am happy to help you.

2020 ANNUAL CATALOGUE SWAPS!

Recently I joined a Card Swap with some other Australian Demonstrators using products from the 2020 Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalogue.  Card swaps are great as you get to see projects with other stamps you may not have or using colours or techniques that you don’t normally see.

I joined in 2 rounds in the swaps so I got LOTS of cards.  It meant I created 2 different cards for these but that’s OK. 🙂

I am going to share Round 1 cards today and Round 2 tomorrow.  I have included my card swap but I will share more detail of these in a later post.

I’m not posting individual names on these cards but for those who swapped with me – Thank You.

If you would like more information on any of the cards or would like a close-up photo of any please drop me a comment.

My Card Swap for this round is the top right card on the photo directly above using Comfort and Hope stamp set.

I hope these might inspire you for your next creating.

Be sure to check in tomorrow for Round 2 Card Swaps.

CELEBRATE SUNFLOWERS!

I have another card to share with you today using the Celebrate Sunflowers Bundle.  When I first start using a new bundle I “warm up” to it by CASE-ing some cards I find I Pinterest.  Which is what I did with this card.

This is my card.

The card I CASED from Beth can be seen -> HERE.

I didn’t have the In Good Taste Designer Series Paper that was used on the original card so I used Smoky Slate card and embossed it with the Pinewood Planks 3D Embossing Folder.  The sunflowers are coloured with the Stampin’ Blends.

The sunflowers are so bright and happy aren’t they?? 🙂

In Australia and want the Celebrate Sunflowers Bundle for your collection?  It is certainly a great bundle. You can see it in my store -> HERE.

WEDNESDAY’S WOW! #104 – LAYERING THE TASTEFUL LABELS DIES!

I have been using the Tasteful Touches Bundle A LOT lately.  While I love the stamp set I really love the dies.  I love that you can use them for your sentiments or for small images and I love that they can be layered together to use on your projects.  I thought you might like to see how to use them more.

Our Wednesday’s WOW! #104 – Layering the Tasteful Labels Dies. 

Firstly, let’s look closely at the dies.  There are 10 dies in the set.  The largest die is 8.9cm x 6.4cm (3-1/2″ x 2-1/2″)

I know it may be a bit hard to tell in this image but with these dies some have a scored edge (top half) and others have a stitched edge (bottom half).  It’s great that there is the different looks in the one set.

Most of the dies can be layered together for your images or sentiments.  I have shown some below for you.  There are so many other options though.

How cool are they??

I hope you found the chart helpful to see ways that you can put your diecuts together. Be sure to PIN the image so you can refer back to it.

If you must have the Tasteful Labels Dies in your stash then they are now available in my store.  Grab them on their own or get them in the Bundle with the Tasteful Touches stamp set.

In Australia?  I would love to help you with ordering them. Visit -> HERE to order.

Please use the Host Code: YQQGTXQR

As a Thanks when you order them I will send you card kits for 2 cards I have created recently with them.  Some of the cards you can check back on the past posts.

STAMPING AROUND THE WORLD JUNE BLOG HOP!

Time for another Blog Hop with the Stamping Around The World Tutorial Group.  We bring you different Tutorials each month and join together in a Blog Hop.

This month I am using the Tasteful Touches Bundle.  I have loved using this bundle the last few weeks.  It is so gorgeous.

Here is my project for you.

The flower is stamped over the white card with Basic Gray ink.  It just makes a simple statement.  The flower is stamped again on scrap white card and this one coloured with the Flirty Flamingo and Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends.  The flower is fussy cut out with scissors.

The sentiment piece is stamped on Sahara Sand and diecut with the small banner shape from the Tasteful Labels Dies.  I thought the flower was a little bare so added a scallop circle cut from Vellum.  This scallop is cut with the scallop die in the the Tasteful Label Dies set.

Card measurements:

Thick Whisper White card base: 21cm x 14.8cm scored at 10.5cm   (8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″ scored at 4 1/4″)

Flirty Flamingo card: 8.5cm x 12.8cm (3 1/2″ x 4 3/4″)

Whisper White card: 8.1cm x 12.4cm (3 3/8″ x 4 5/8″)
