Let’s Celebrate

At my recent Stamp-a-Stack, the projects were from the Spring/Summer Catalogue and SAB.

Each attendee makes 10 cards, 2 each of 5 designs and this is the project suitable for males.

It uses the fabulous Tailored Tag Punch, the SAB Amazing You Stamp Set and Celebrate You Thinlit Dies.

Stampin' Up! Celebrate You with HIPPOFROG Designs

This card uses various shades of brown for the punched shapes and these are pieced together in a mosaic format.  It only needs two shapes in each colour to form the pattern.  Two ‘celebrate’ shapes with the bottom layer slightly offset to create a highlight create the main greeting.

I have a feeling that I’ll be making this design again using various colours and DSP as it is suitable for many different occasions.

Don’t forget that SAB finishes at the end of this month so there are just a few more weeks to get your hands on the fabulous FREE items.

Last Week’s Card & Cuppa – Amazing You

At last week’s Card & Cuppa I reached for one of the FREE Sale-a-Bration Stamp Sets – Amazing You.

Here is the project.

Amazing You from Stampin' Up!

All of the stamping is in Smoky Slate, with co-ordinating cardstock and ribbon. This is because every attendee used Watercolor Pencils of their choice to colour their flower. The Smoky Slate background, along with the Thick Whisper White base card work with any colour of flower.

Tone-on-tone stamping onto the Smoky Slate background adds a bit more detail, before adding the ribbon and sentiment. This versatile sentiment will be useful for a number of occasions and is framed here using the Leaf Punch and Pretty Label Punch.  A Clear Faceted Gem adds a touch of sparkle as a finishing touch.

Which colour would you have coloured your flower?
