Butterfly Gala - Stamp Review Crew

February 17, 2019

Hello! We are showcasing the Butterfly Gala stamp set for this edition of the Stamp Review. Get excited people, there are over 19 of us participating. This will be a giant BUTTERFLY filled hop. Loads of inspiration ahead.

A couple of weeks ago I started to color a background with the various butterflies from the stamp set and then set aside not sure how I wanted to use it. Do you ever do that? Start something and then becomes stumped? I guess I just needed a couple of weeks for my brain to soak because the card came together so quickly when I pulled it out and used it to create this bright card for our hop today.

All coloring had been created with Stampin’ Blends. It was fun to play around and try different color combos and layers of colors. Each butterfly is unique.

The Blends Colors used are Lovely Lipstick, Flirty Flamingo and Pineapple Punch. I’m loving how Pineapple Punch and Flirty Flamingo created a coral color when blended together.

I added a few embellishments from the Occasions catalog and am super pleased with the results. It’s a bright and butterfly filled card. A full list of card supplies can be found below.

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
Flirty Flamingo dark
Calypso Coral 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.

This blue and purple winter card uses tidbits from the Calm & Bright kit. I used the negative shape from the fir die cut to create a stencil and layered from there. Blend, stencil, stamp. Colors are Highlander Heather, Cloud Cover, & Lost Lagoon. @global_design_project #gdp525 #stampinup #calmandbright
Masking and stamping! On this card I mask with tape, blend ink, then stamp, then stencil, and stamp again to create a layered scene. It’s so satisfying to remove the masking tape… always a fun reveal.

Sending Joy! I created this wintry scene using the Calm and Bright card kit. I love the look of white on white. I pulled in some gold embossing and Crumb Cake to balance out all that white. This CAS kit has tons of cute and tiny elements (yippee for tiny stamps) that are perfect for creating an adorable little holiday scene. 166461 Card created for @global_design_project BRRR theme. #gdp523 #stampinup #cardmaker #cardmaking #cardmakersofinstagram #cardmakingreels #madewithmine
