Multi mediums - Stampin' Up! Scrap Layouts.

I have been playing around with quite a few different products, and watched a great YouTube video from Ruth at artful stamping, and pleased with the result.
This is a great way to use up some scraps, or be brave and tear into some designer series papers that you have been saving, and still haven't used. I have used up some old products as well, but there are new ones that can be used just the same.

This first layout is very straight after watching the video, very similar to Ruth's. I've is oblivious to all what's going on.
Stamp Set :- Petal Palette 145785
Card Stock :- 12  X  12 Blushing Bride
Ink:- Rich Razzleberry, Soft Suede, Versa Mark
Accessories:-  Petal Garden Memories and More card Pack, gold embossing powder, Brusho new product, doilies and textured glitter paste and templates.

This layout is toned down a bit, being for a little boy. This is Oscar's 1st Birthday.
Stamp Set:- Touches of Texture 141934
Card Stock:- Crumb Cake 12. X. 12
Ink :- Crumb Cake
Accessories:- embossing paste and templates, Brusho, Memories and More card pack, and Glitter enamel dots.


Final layout is of Emily on her wedding day, a few years back now, but needed a lovely photo for this beautiful Designer Series Paper Painted with Love 145580.
Stamp Set :-from the Sale-A-Bration free products - Beautiful Peacock 147239.
Card Stock Painted with Love Specialty Designer Series Paper, Calypso Coral, and Powder Pink, Rich Razzleberry.
Ink:-Rich Razzleberry 
Accessories:- Glitter embossing paste and templates, Brusho, gold doilies, hearty punch, metallic enamel dots.

Hope these pages inspire you to get out of your comfort zone, and have a go at something different.

Happy Stampin'

Petal Palette mini album -Stampin' Up! New Occasions Catalogue 2018

I have cased a very talented Lady, unfortunately I don't know her name. She produced a beautifully made mini album at our recent Melbourne Onstage event in Melbourne November 2017. I loved it so much I decided to create my own. I have just made my own measurements to work with the Designer Series Paper and card stock I had.
I used the new Petal Palette stamp set, one of my favourites. The co-ordinating Designer Series Paper and a In colour card stock.

Stamp Set - Petal Palette
Card Stock - Shimmer White, Basic Black, Lemon Lime Twist
Ink- Lemon Lime Twist, Flirty Flamingo, Basic Black, Memento Black
Accessories - Blendabilities, organza ribbon, metallic rhinestones, and candy dots.





Hope you get some inspiration from this little album. I will be doing a class in the near future.

Happy Stampin'

Waterfront Stamp set from the new Stampin' Up! Occasions catty 2018

Hi to those who visit my blog, I have been rather busy and haven't posted for awhile. I have finally gotten a few minutes to have a play with this great set. Waterfront 146386.

I firstly did a little water colouring for the sky (Marina Mist), then used waterfront for the rest. Used the mountains upside down and the correct way to make the beautiful blue water (tempting turquoise). I used the wink of Stella and painted over all the water to add a shine. Can't see on photo but looks good on the page.
Then used the mountains again in Basic Grey, Smokey Slate, Soft Suede for all the mountains and rocks. Added a little shimmer paste on mountains for snow.
Then stamped the trees from the same set and used Old Olive and Garden Green, both full strength ink and stamped the second time without inking up and that gave it a more 3D look.
I'm very happy with my page.

What inspired me to do this, I'm going to visit Banff in July with 3 great friends, Sue, Hilda and Ronnie.

Hope this inspires you to pick up your stamps and have a play.

Happy Stampin'

Cheryl.

Cased the Stampin' Up! Catty.

Our grand-daughter Jordi is turning 8 this Sunday, and I wanted to make her a card a little more grown up than a kids card. So thought I would case the catty with this great little set. Pocketful of Sunshine. Very cute and easy to create, hope she will love it.

Cased straight from the catalogue.

A little bit of bling to make it a little more grown up and fancy. The handle is the silver glimmer paper, added studs of rhinestones.

Check out the catalogue on page 64, great ideas. 

Happy Stampin'
