Global Design Project - Sketch Challenge - GDP210 - Harvest Hellos

October 7, 2019

Short and sweet post today with a sweet and simple card. This card was created for Global Design Project sketch challenge 210.

You can tell I am still crushing on Harvest Hellos. The pumpkins are so much fun and easy to color.

I removed a few layers from this sketch to come up with my card. I like how the lace along the bottom mimics the scallop.

Need more inspiration? Want to play along? Check out more projects using this sketch on the GDP blog. Be sure to take your project #gdp210 so we can see your creation.

Let it Snow - Snowman card. Charlet Mallett, Stampin’ Up!

Monday Montage 149 - Let is Snow Embellishment kit

October 6, 2019

The Montage Montage crew is back today to share what we are working on.

Yesterday was World cardmaking day. Of course I had to sit down and make a few cards. I busted out the Snowman Season set and Let it Snow embellishments. Funny enough I ended up loving the Let is Snow embellishments so much that I only used the stamp set for the sentiment.

The snowmen on my cards are created by watercoloring the positive space to create a negative space snowman. Fun way to create a snowman from scratch!

The Monday Montage crew is a talented bunch. A quick refresher, the Montage gals host a blog hop every other Monday showing you fun and exciting Stampin’ Up! products. Ready for more Stampin’ Up! inspiration? Be sure to loop through the entire hop and see all of the amazing artwork created just to inspire! Next up is Dani!

2018 A-Team Reunited - Holiday Edition

October 3, 2019

Hello! How have you been? I sure miss stamping with my Stampin’ Up! Artisan friends. A few of us are back informally hopping as the A-Team sharing HOLIDAY ideas. I am excited to see what my talented friends have created.

Do you craft much for the Holidays? I mainly make cards and tags. With that in mind it was hard to choose what to play with. Too many awesome choices for cards and tags. I pulled out the ‘Cup of Christmas’ bundle and intended to only make one card but ended up making a sweet and simple card set for the Holidays. I think these cards will make a darling gift.

All cards are 4.25 x 4.25”. Colors used: Flirty Flamingo, Soft Sea Foam, Poppy Parade, Whisper White, Basic Black and silver.

Cup of Christmas Candy Cane card - Charlet Mallett, Stampin’ Up!

Tips and tricks: I have a little tip & trick to share for each card. Hope you can use in your crafting.

Let’s get to it! Loving this … I thought the Candy Cane card turned out super cute. It was super easy to make.

Tip: candy canes are slightly smaller than traced image.

Adhere dies cut candy canes onto colored canes.

Watercolor canes in darker Flirty Flamingo.

Cup of Christmas Mitten card - Charlet Mallett, Stampin’ Up!

The ‘Let is Snow’ embellishments are a cute addition with this set. Add the mittens for a simple and effective winter card. Use a brad to act as a hook to hang those mittens on. Snowman not required.

Cup of Christmas card - Charlet Mallett, Stampin’ Up!

YUM, yum! I love the look of a white and pink Christmas. Creating the candy cane in white and layering with Silver Glimmer paper adds a little white flair to the Flirty Flamingo polka dot mug. The poinsettia is colored using the technique I posted about earlier. You can see that post here.

Cup of Christmas Mistletoe card - Charlet Mallett, Stampin’ Up!

Making Mistletoe: The sprig image comes from the dies included in this bundle. I cut out 5 of these and layered to create mistletoe. These are cut from Soft Sea Foam cardstock. Do you like that pink variegated bakers twine? I colored white baker’s twine with a Flirty Flamingo Stampin’ Blend.

Sa-weeet! I love that little candy cane heart. Cut a reverse candy cane and push those dies a little farther. Simply place the paper upside down and then cut using the die. In this case I placed the Silver Glimmer paper upside down and then cut. The Poppy Parade Candy cane was cut right side up and then flipped over afterward.

Cup of Christmas Poinsettia card - Charlet Mallett - Stampin’ Up!

Creating Kindness Blog Hop - Coloring - Cup of Christmas

October 3, 2019

HELLO friends! Welcome to the Creating Kindness Around the World Hop. CREATING KINDNESS: We are a group of paper crafters from around the world who have come together to inspire you to create kindness through cardmaking and paper.

Our theme this month is coloring, basically we had to incorporate some form of coloring, such as maker, pencil or paintbrush. Trying to be a little EXTRA today so my card incorporates it ALL. Lol.

It’s amazing what you can create using stamps, ink and paper! Serious. It’s always rewarding to me to start with a black piece of paper and end up with something unique.

Poinsettia background step by step:

Watercolored the background in Flirty Flamingo ink. I used an aqua painter and Flirty Flamingo ink refill. Try to create some darker and lighter areas for extra depth.
Randomly stamp the poinsettia image all over the background.
Color each poinsettia. I randomly colored in the petals in shades of Flirty Flamingo and Poppy Parade using Stampin’ Write markers. Beside to leave some areas empty to have the base watercolor layer show through.
Add a little white craft paint into the centers of the poinsettias and make those centers pop.
Lastly, color bits of the poinsettias petals using Wink of Stella for a little shimmer.

Our Guest Designer this month is Cathy Caines. She has an amazing way with color. I love her sense of humor and I am super excited to see what she has made for this hop.

Quack, quack! Wishing a happy birthday wishes to my dear Aunt Julie. LOVE YOU! This card was inspired by @global_design_project sketch #gdp546 - That cute duck image and sentiment are from the 'Notes of Spring' stamp set. I paired with some pieces from the Lakeside Retreat Paper Pumpkin. #stampinup #cardmaker #paperpumpkinalternate

I adore cards with a floating backgrounds. They are so pretty! Here is a peek at how I created. First, I cut, colored, and assembled bunch of daffodil flowers. I popped up the flowers using dimensionals and arranged them around the greeting, trimming any excess off from around the edges. #stampinup #cardmaker #cardmaking cardmakingreels
