Global Design Project Challenge Entry - #038 Sketch Challenge

Hi,

As you may or may not know, I recently signed up as a Stampin' Up demonstrator and I have fallen head over heels in love with their products.  Stampin' Up showcase their products in their annual catalogue which was launched for 2016/17 on 1 June.  There are some really yummy new items and I had a open house party on Saturday to celebrate!  Everybody had loads of fun testing out the new goodies and the Rolo cupcakes went down a treat!

Anyway, the reason I'm here is to post my entry for the latest Global Design Project challenge and this week we have been given a sketch.

I do love a sketch challenge - so many possibilities!  Here is my entry:

My card started with many balloons punched from the Balloon Punch (140609) in two of the new In Colours of cardstock, Dapper Denim (141419) and Flirty Flamingo (141421), along with some punched in silver Glimmer Paper (135314).  I created a channel using one of the new dies from the Swirly Scribbles set (141497) and added my balloons using Tombow wet glue (110755) and Dimensionals (104430).  My sentiment was created using the new Thoughtful Banners bundle which includes a wide variety of greetings stamps and a punch (142330).  I layered up my topper using more of the new cardstock in Dapper Denim and Flirty Flamingo, adding a touch of Whisper White cardstock (106549) to break up the layers.

If you would like to purchase any of the items above, simply click on my Stampin' Up page and shop as normal.  If you have any questions, please feel free to drop me a line.

I would like to enter this card into the following challenge:

Hope you can join me again soon.

Stampin' Up! - Love and Global Design Project #GDP019

Hi,

I'm back again but this time with a card for the latest Global Design Project challenge #GDP019 and the theme this week is Love!  We had our SU! Team Training this morning and I used this challenge as my inspiration. 

 

I started with the Love Blossoms card pack and stamped from the Bloomin' Love set to make a background in Pink Pirouette.  I attached two small slivers of Silver Glimmer Paper to a piece of White Whisper paper which I had stamped with another of the Bloomin' Love stamps in Night of Navy.  I cut my heart from the Bloomin' Heart thinlit die set and stamped again with the Bloomin' Love set to enhance the flowers.  My sentiment also came from that set and was cut with the Bitty Banners die set.  This is definitely a firm favourite of mine.  

Happy crafting,

Global Design Project

Hi Everyone,

I've made a card for the Global Design Project challenge (#GDP014) and this week the theme is a sketch.

Of course I used Stampin' Up products and this was my creation.

I used Mint Macaron cardstock for the base card and the layered a piece of Whisper White cardstock on top.  My main topper was made from the grey cardstock from the Neutrals pack and I embossed this with the Softly Falling embossing folder.  I lighted coated the embossing with white ink.

I made the trees from the Peaceful Pines set using Soft Sky and Elegant Eggplant inks.  I used the Perfect Pines framelits to cut out the trees.  I popped the middle tree up using dimensionals.

The Stars Confetti Punch was used for the top of the card and my sentiment was from the Happy Scenes stamp set, cut with the Bitty Banners, which fit perfectly.  I stamped this with the Elegant Eggplant ink.

And now for a side view

How about a close up!

Happy Crafting,
