Beauty Abounds - Global Design Project CASE Challenge - GDP172

Hello friends! Ready for this weeks Global Design Project challenge? This week we are CASING from this card of Shawn’s. I was instantly drawn to the color combo and the layout and built my card from there. You can see more of Shawn’s work on his blog at Shawn Stamps.

The Beauty Abounds stamp set and dies are getting a fair amount of love in my craft room right now. This card features both the Beauty Abound stamp set and coordinating dies. Those stitched rectangle dies are a must have! A full list of supplies can be found below.

Check out the Global Design Project blog to see what the other designers have created for this challenge. Tag your projects #gdp172 so we can be sure to find them on Pinterest and Instagram.

You rock at being a girl! Floral Bouquet card

Floral Bouquet, #girlboss Louise, Charlet Mallett - cardmaker

There are so many fantastic stamp and craft companies in the market nowadays. I can’t resist a good stamp set! Particularly a great verse. ‘You rock at being a girl’ is a MUST own stamp verse.

In December I treated myself to a few little gifts and purchased some stamp sets from THE STAMP MARKET and Picket Fence Studios. I also added some yellows and greens to my Copic marker collection. YAY! So today I’m taking a swing combining these new products for a vibrant and happy card.

The sentiment is from the #girlboss louise (Picket Fence Studios) stamp set. The large flower is from Floral Bouquet (the stamp market). The most affordable place (I’ve found) to purchase Copic markers is Blick Art Supplies.

Please note this post is not a paid promotion. I jut love these CRAFTY products and thought I would share.

Also (as I normally mention), I am a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator and LOVE all the stamps and products they offer. The black ink on this card is Memento, the b&w striped paper is called Botanical Butterfly (currently free with a 50$ SU purchase) and the sequins are ALL from Stampin’ Up! If you want to purchase any of Stampin’ Up! products you can do that through my online store. Happy stamping!

Cards for the PET Lover!

Back in December I made a few cards for our new Vet to hand out to employees for appreciation. I set out to find cat and dog stamps. This was BEFORE the new Occasions catalog came out with a fun new cat and dog set. However, over the years, Stampin’ Up! offered quite a few cute animals in stamp sets. These cards use a smorgasbord of stamps and product, watch out!

What do you think of this bulldog card? The cute bulldog is available in the Sitting Pretty Stamp set. I had to dress him up … the hat comes from the retired Guy Greetings stamp set. The verse and flowers are from the A Big Thank You stamp set.

These LOOOONG pets come from a retire host set called Long Fellows. I wish this set had stuck around longer…. lol. Both cards use the same basic template.

The gray cat on this card is created using the cat punch. The cat face comes from the retire Spooky Cat stamp set. The verse is from the Rooted in Nature stamp set and the papers are from the Animal Expedition Designer Series papers.

Told ya, smorgasbord of products! It’s good to have a well stocked and versed craft room.

YAY! - Global Design Project Theme Challenge - GDP171

Hello friends! We are one week into the new year and so far I’m loving 2019. How about you? The first week of a new year can be so productive. I’m all inspired and motivated to organize, clean and even fit some crafting in. Ha! Let’s be real … I always find time for crafting. Therapy.

For this NEW YEAR the Global Design Project has a NEW theme challenge for you. A NEW YEAR!

Did you make a cool calendar, or do you have a crafty vision board? Some of my friends send out a new year card / letter instead of a Christmas card or holiday card. Share your new year creation with us! I made a fun card that can double as a thank you card. I always need thank you cards after Christmas.

My card features a super cool new birthday set called Amazing Life (Stampin’ Up! Occasions catalog). I really love the look of this set. There are so many great images in this set but I opted to use the YAY! phrase because it sums up how I feel about this new year. I repeatedly stamped the YAY to create a background. Then I colored in the YAYs with my Stampin’ Blends for that ombre look. See the four step coloring process below. Also, a full list of supplies can be found at the end of this post.

Step 1: color bottom of YAY with darkest Calypso Blend.

Step 2: color top of YAY with lightest Petal Pink Blend.

Step 3: color middle of YAY with lightest Calypso Blend.

Step 4: Blend colors on YAY with lightest Petal Pink Blend.
