Crafting Forever - What Will You Stamp

April 9, 2018

My Grandfather makes the most gorgeous wood pens. I created this card for him using the Crafting Forever stamp set. I was inspired by his awesome handiwork and tried to take that approach with this card. I used my Stamparatus tool to line up the pen images and then stamped them in Momento ink. Each pen is uniquely colored using Stampin' Blends. A full supply list can be found below.

I like how this card turned out and hope he does also. While I didn't mean to, this card also channels the current color challenge over on the Global Design Project Blog. HA!

This card was actually created for this weeks What Will You Stamp challenge featuring the Crafting Forever stamp set. I love this stamp set and use it often. Want to see more goodness with this set? Check out what the WWYS team created and play along with us.

Beautiful Peacock - TGIF Challenge using Sale a bration products

February 16, 2018

We are smack in the middle of Stampin' Up!'s biggest promotion of the year, Sale-a-bration! This years promotion is packed full of all sorts of fun freebies. This weeks TGIF Challenge focuses on Sale-a-bration inspiration. The TGIF Challenges Design team has decided to show you the best of what Sale-a-bration has to offer in the form of INSPIRATION!

My card today features two products from the promotion; the Beautiful Peacock stamp set, and the Celebrate You thinlets. This is the first opportunity I have had to play with this particular set. I've been inspired countless times from other artists that have created with Beautiful Peacock, every project looks amazing. I decided to take a sweet and somewhat simple approach pairing the colors Lemon Lime Twist and Berry Burst together. The Amazing die cut is from the Celebrate You thinlets and has fast become a favorite. A full list of supplies can be found below.

Have you earned any goodies from Sale-a-bration? If not, there is still plenty of time. You have until March 31 to participle in this promotion.

Want to play? Show us your Sale-a-bration wares. Play along on the TGIF Challenges blog. We'd love to see what you create. Happy Stamping.

Birthday Wit & Party Pandas GDP125 - Charlet Mallett, Stampin' Up!

Birthday Wit & Party Pandas for Global Design Project Color Challenge

February 12, 2018

How about a little Birthday Wit & Party Pandas for this weeks Global Design Project Color Challenge (GDP125)? I think both of these stamp sets look great with strong colors! The colors we are using for this challenge are Melon Mambo, Daffodil Delight and Dapper Denim. All favorites of mine.

I tried to create a little firework background for this card. Not sure how well the blue Brusho reads as fireworks ... what do you think? Does it look like a celebration or a big blue mistake? Ha! Either way I hope you found a little inspiration here and be sure to check out what the other designers created using this fabulous color combo. Play along! Thanks for visiting.

Happy Wishes Ombre Card - Charlet Mallett, Stampin' Up!

Happy Wishes - TGIFC145 Color Challenge

February 2, 2018

HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY! The TGIF Challenge team has an awesome color challenge using Blushing Bride, Sweet Sugarplum and Powder Pink. I played around and decided these colors would look great with an ombre effect. The end results sure made me happy.

This ombre look was created using a blending tool and Classic Ink pads. I embossed the Happy sentiment from Happy Wishes in white on Whisper White Card stock. Then I blended ink from the bottom of the card to the top of the Happy sentiment starting with the darker inks first. I added spots of colors to the die cut embellishments before applying them to the card.
