IN LOVE WITH STAMPING - July swap cards

Evening crafters !

Here are the cards I made for this months challenge with fellow Stampin' Up! demonstrators over at 'In Love With Stamping'. This month's theme was 'show me something new' using Stampin' Up! products from the NEW Annual Ideas & Catalogue.

Here I've used the lovely NEW In-Colours Blackberry Bliss, Hello Honey and Lost Lagoon. Stamp 'splodges' are from Work of Art #134111 (W) #134114 (C) and stamped over using Watercolour Thank You #135377 (W). To finish off, I sponged some Vellum card stock #106584 using Lost Lagoon ink and cut Butterfly using Beautiful Wings Embosslits #118138 and finished with some Pearl Basic Jewels #119247.

I've entered two groups this month so here's the 2nd set I've swapped.

These cards use some of the Moonlight paper stacks #133701. Using the favourite of my NEW In-Colours, Blackberry Bliss on a Smokey Slate base card. The sentiment is from Age Awareness #135381 in the NEW Photopolymer stamps.

It's such an exciting time with lots of new goodies arriving, I'm really looking forward to receiving my swaps back next week and see what the other lovely demonstrators have to share with the rest of us.

Happy craftin'

LOCAL DEMO MONTHLY SHOE BOX SWAP

Evening crafters !

Yesterday evening, instead of the usual 'local' crafting meet up, Alison, another of my Downlines, invited us to visit her on the North Norfolk coast.

As Demonstrators we get to pre-order from a few selected items of the NEW ANNUAL catalogue. There were five of us, each creating a shoe-box style swap and, with a much longer journey time, I chose a very quick stamped card using the NEW stamp set Work of Art #134111 (W) #134114 (C), a graphic set with nice greetings.

I love how, making one craft project (or sometimes even just the outline planning in my head), very often sparks off other creative ideas. This was a quick and easy card as we had 5 shoe box projects to complete. I already have another project lined up to play with as a result of this idea which will feature at one of my classes in a couple of weeks. This card will shortly be winging it's way to a birthday girl :-)
