Easy Ombré with Stampin' Blends

September 19, 2018
Charlet Mallett Instagram tip 2a.jpg

Hello! It’s so fun to see my work featured on the Stampin’ Up! Instagram and Facebook pages. It’s a nice perk to being an Artisan Design team member. I was featured this month on SU’s instagram showing how to use your Stampin’ Blends to create an easy ombré look.

“I love the look of ombré sentiments on cards. Create this awesome look quickly & easily using Stampin’ Blends. Choose shades of similar colors and roughly color your cardstock from light to dark. Blend colors together and then die-cut your sentiment. So fun!” I hope this idea inspired you to pull out your Stampin’ Blends and use them in a different way.

This card features the Thank You thinlet die and the Love You To Pieces stamp set and die bundle. A full list of supplies can be found below.

The Stampin’ Blends colors used for this pink Thank You:

Petal Pink light
Petal Pink dark
Flirty Flamingo light

Another quick tip: Keep the puzzle die cuts in the die, add adhesive and then adhere to the card front before you remove the die. This will keep all the puzzle pieces together and make the assembly so much easier.

Now let’s flip it! Same idea / technique but shown in greens. This card features Thank You Thinlet and the Tropical Chic stamp set and papers.

Which do you prefer, the pink or green version? Are you ready to give it a try? I’d love to see what you make. Tag me it you try it. Happy stamping.

Alrighty! Let's talk about the projects I'm sharing. The Artisan Design Team was asked to create projects targeting specific season. The season I am featuring is FALL. Harvest time and falling leaves are some of the imagery that comes to mind when I think of the Fall.  

This 'Falling Leaves' card features the leaves image from the stamp set as well as the leaf die from the Stitched Season dies. I've also used the large stitched label shape shown behind the leaves.

The stamped leaves are colored with the Cajun Craze, Flirty Flamingo and Crushed Curry watercolor pencils directly onto watercolor paper. The colors are blended and lightened by adding water from an Aqua Painter. Flirty Flamingo might not seem an obvious color choice for fall but I found the way this color blends with Cajun Craze made these maple leaves pop! Love it.

This 'Harvest Thank You' card features the wheat image from the stamp set. This image is colored using the Crushed Curry and Granny Apple Green watercolor pencils. The background behind the wheat is also created using the watercolor pencils. Simply color a shape (I used Coastal Cabana on my project) and blend with water. The examples shown below use Crushed Curry and Granny Apple Green watercolor pencils.

Both of my cards today also feature the Pinewood Planks Dynamic Textured Impression embossing folder. I love how the look/feel of wood adds a bit of texture to these cards. This is folder is a GO TO staple in my crafting.

I can't wait the see what she has come up with. Thanks for visiting. I appreciate you and your lovely comments. Have a wonderful day!

Sunshine & Rainbows - Stampin' Up! Artisan Blog Hop

April 19, 2018

Hello and welcome back to another Stampin' Up! Artisan Design team blog hop. This edition we are featuring the playful Sunshine & Rainbows stamp set and coordinating dies. I'm excited to share two bright and beautiful cards with you today.  

First off, the products used on my cards are currently available in the Stampin' Up! Occasions catalog and annual catalog. I created these cards before Stampin' Up! announced their retired products list. So, these cards DO feature a few items that will be going away May 31st (specifically colors: Sweet Sugarplum & Peekaboo Peach). If you love these products as much as I do grab these items now, while supplies last.

Now onto the cards. I really like the idea of something special at the end of a rainbow ... how about a bouquet of flowers? Or perhaps a cloud of iridescent sequins? Options are endless and oh so pretty. Both of these cards take a fun approach to treasure at the end of a rainbow.  

Sunshine & Rainbows 2.jpg
Sunshine & Rainbows (8 of 10).jpg

The flowers are the end of this rainbow were created using the Blossom Builder Punch.  Each flower has been punched in the same color as the corresponding rainbow stripe. I added a little pearl accents to the center of each of these flowers and stained these pearls with a similar matching Stampin' Blend marker.  This is a fun little detail and adds a special touch. 

Sunshine & Rainbows 3.jpg
Sunshine & Rainbows 5.jpg

Here is a fun approach for a shaker card. Make that shaker work for you inside and out! This shaker window full of sequins can be seen from the front of the card and then once opened, seen from the inside as well. The natural motion of opening the card also allows the sequins to fall, creating a nice WOW once the card is opened.
 

Creating a matching window for the inside of the shaker is easy to do by flipping your paper over once die cut to match up with the front. 

Thank you so much for stopping by and I hope you enjoyed these projects. I am super excited to see what the other Artisan designers have in store. I am ready to be inspired! Next up is the super talented Connie Collins.
