Stampin Up Earthen Textures / Earthen Elegance Slimline Thankyou Card

Hello again friends. Today I have a slimline card for you using the Stampin' Up! Earthen Textures bundle, from the Earthen Elegance Suite in the 2023 Stampin' Up! Annual Catalogue. I have made lots of cards using this suite, but this one is a bit different.

Here's a look at the Stampin' Up! Colour Combination I used which includes Crump Cake, Misty Moonlight, Pecan Pie and Early Espresso. I am really falling in love with the new core colour Pecan Pie. You can alter the shade by stamping it off once too.

The embellishments I have used on this card are the Neutrals Adhesive Backed Sequins from the 2023 Annual Catalogue. There are 4 colours in the pack (white, copper, gold and brown). At this stage I am particularly in love with the brown ones, but I can see myself using the others more during Christmas crafting.

Stampin' Up! 2022 Christmas Cards: Spruced Up

Hello again, time for some catch up posts now that my blog is behaving as it should.

I'm busy making more Christmas cards, and have decided to participate in Martin Stone's (Martin is a UK Demonstrator) 30 Day Christmas Card Challenge in November. The challenge for the 1st had 'Red' as the theme, and since I was a day behind I used one of the cards I created for last month's Spruced Up Class (the PDF for this 5 card class with steps and measurements in imperial and metric is available for instant download for $15AUD or less than $10USD here on my PDF class page).

I will be posting every challenge day HERE on my business Facebook page, and a few here during the week. Make sure you visit and click 'Follow' on my Facebook page to see all 30 days of the Christmas cards.

So onto today's card. The shade of red I chose was Sweet Sorbet, one of the 2022 new InColours. I am really enjoying this red right now. My slimline card is 9cm x 21cm once folded to perfectly fit inside our Slimline Envelopes (see below).

It was actually a very simple card to put together. Using our Adhesive Sheets (see below) before die-cutting the present outlines really helps the process.

I added some subtle embellishments with a silver metallic thread (from Simply Elegant Trim - see below), and the white adhesive sequins from Adhesive Backed Seasonal Sequins (see below). There is also gold, Garden Green and Sweet Sorbet in the pack so it's a great festive embellishment.

Set of 4 Stampin' Up! Santa Express / Santa's Delivery Slimline Cards

Hello friends,

Today I have a set of 4 Santa Express Suite slimline cards to show you. 

Santas Express / Santas Delivery slimline Christmas cards for 2022. Claire Daly, Stampin' Up! Demonstrator, Melbourne Australia.

These cards were super simple to make, as I just used one sheets of the 12x12" Santa Express DSP for the imagery. Here's a look at the DSP pack. There are 12 double sided sheets of 12x12: DSP.

Santa Express DSP

This is the sheet I used for the imagery. It was super easy to cut four strips for the main section of the cards. I used the reverse of the sheet in the bottom right for the other DSP.

Santa Express DSP 2

My base card is Petal Pink, and I have added a mat of Poppy Parade to the paper strips. For the base of the Shaded Spruce DSP, I left two of them straight, used the scallop die from the Scalloped Contours Dies for one, and the other one was hand-torn.

Santas Express / Santas Delivery slimline Christmas cards for 2022. Claire Daly, Stampin' Up! Demonstrator, Melbourne Australia.

For the sentiments, I used Santa's Delivery stamp set from this suite, and they were stamped in Evening Evergreen. I stamped them onto either the Scalloped Contours or Stitched Rectangle die cuts. For embellishing I used the Rhinestone Basic Jewels, and the silver metallic thread from the Simply Elegant Trims. I also decorated some of our Slimline Envelopes with stamping from the Santa's Delivery stamp set in Evening Evergreen and Poppy Parade.

Two Stampin' Up! Art Gallery Bundle Cards: Thinking of You and Miss You

Hello stampers :)

Today I have two cards to show you which I have made using the Art Gallery Bundle and the Fine Art Floral Designer Series Paper. Both cards are pretty simple and designed to show off the beautiful paper and the coordinating Fine Art Ribbon. This paper was hand painted by Stampin' Up! artists and is one of my most favourite Stampin' Up! papers ever!

My base card on this one is Petal Pink. For the stamping, I have stamped directly onto one of the lighter neutral paper pieces. The ink colour I have used was Flirty Flamingo and I stamped it off once to give a lighter shade.

The Champagne Rhinestones look great with this paper as well.

For my slimline card, I have used the die cut words in the bundle for my sentiment, and cut these from Flirty Flamingo cardstock. I stamped the other sentiment directly onto the patterned paper again. The base card for this one is Flirty Flamingo, but there is also a teeny mat of Old Olive cardstock around the patterned paper (I think I would make it a little more noticeable next time).

The Fine Art Ribbon is so beautiful. It's a natural base, but has lovely gold flecks through it. I'm so glad it's carrying over to the new 2021 Annual Catalogue (more details below). The bundle will be carrying over too, but sadly not the Fine Art Floral DSP, so make sure to get that before June 3oth!
