Global Design Project - GDP270 - Press On

Hello! Another week and another Global Design Project challenge. This week we are playing with the long skinny card format. So fun! I made a longer card 3”x6” using the Press On stamp set. I wanted the coffee cups to clink and cheer to I gut the cup handle off and turned around to place on the other side of the card. CHEERS!

Want to play along with us? Check out the Global Design Project blog for more projects and details on how to play along. If you make a project be sure to tag your project #gdp264 so we can see your work.

Gnome for the Holidays - Stamp Review Crew

Gnome for the Holidays and Warm Hugs - Charlet Mallett, Stampin’ Up!

Hello and welcome to the Gnome for the Holidays Edition of the Stamp Review Crew.

What is the Stamp Review Crew? We are an international group of paper crafters that get together to feature and review a single Stampin’ Up! stamp set on the first and third Monday of each month. All of our previous stamp set reviews are archived. Click here to see all of the hops!

Gnomes… Love them or hate them? I am a big fan of these little characters. They bring a smile to my face and I hope this card brings a smile to yours. I paired the Gnome for the Holidays stamp set with the Warm Hugs stamp set. The little mugs and candy canes in the Warm Hugs set are the perfect size for the little Gnomes and the Gnomes were just begging for cocoa. As my friend Cindy says “Why have one hot cocoa when you can have two?!” So true.

This card also features a fun new product sneak peak. You may not notice it at first … See it? The nice little blend of color in the circles behind the Gnomes? You guess it. Stampin’ Up! will be selling bending brushes in January and beyond! Woohoo, about time. I’m super excited to use this tool more.

Beware: to recreate this card you will need a little time and a lot of fussy cutting and coloring. I crafted this card while watching a cheesy but heartfelt holiday flick. Another perfect combo! crafting and Christmas movies! Happy Holidays.

TGIF Challenges: TGIFC293 - Color Challenge using Snowman Season

TGIFC293 - Friday Challenge time! This week we are playing with soft blues and purples: Smoky Slate, Balmy Blue and Highland Heather. I immediately thought of a winter scene when I saw these colors. My card today also features the Snowman Season stamp set.

Tip: To create this watercolor wash background I wet an entire piece of Fluid 100 watercolor paper and then dropped in a small amount of each color. Then I tipped the paper back and forth to help the colors flow into each other and create this soft multi-colored sky. The snowflakes are stamped onto the background in versamark and then heat embossed with white embossing powder.

Check out the TGIFChallenges blog for more details and inspiration for this challenge. Tag your projects #tgifc293 so the TGIF Challenges design team are sure to see them.
