GDP Colour Challenge - Free PDF Tutorial



It’s time for another Global Design Project Colour Challenge and this week we are encouraged to  use the colours Soft Sea Foam, So Saffron and Petal Pink. I really enjoyed creating with these, they are such soft and pretty colours. I paired them with the Incredible Like You Stamp Set to create this birthday card. 


To create a soft, subtle look I used the stamping off technique, inking up the stamp then stamping onto a scrap piece of card stock before stamping the image. I added dimension by adhering the flowers and front panel with Stampin’ Dimensionals, and added a bit of bling with the Share What You Love Artisan Pearls.


I have created a free PDF tutorial on how to create this card, including a list of supplies and photos. CLICK HERE  to download it. The Incredible Like You stamp set is one of the new stamps from the current Occasions Catalogue and is available until June 3, 2019. Purchase $90 worth of products from the Occasions Catalogue and you will get to choose a free item from the current Sale-a-bration Brochure.

If you would like to participate in the GDP colour challenge head over to www.global-design-project.com   I hope you enjoy the tutorial. Thanks for stopping by.

Easy Slider Card

Hello and welcome back to my blog. How are you? How have you been coping during these difficult times? My life sure is a roller coaster ride, home schooling two young children, one of whom has special needs.

It is such a great mindfulness activity and I look forward to my crafting time each afternoon. Today I am sharing how I created this easy slider card using the Bonanza Buddies Bundle.

I found the inspiration for this card in the current mini catalogue. I love how the catalogues are a great source of inspiration and ideas and I always keep a pile of old editions on my desk to ...

First Frost - Freshly Made Sketches Challenge

Today’s card is inspired by another card challenge - Freshly Made Sketches #372. I was excited to break out the First Frost stamp set and co-ordinating dies for this one. I had purchased them before Xmas and have only just gotten around to using them. It is a beautiful stamp set and one of my faves as I love florals.    The Frosted Floral designer series paper co-ordinates beautifully, the patterns are so colourful and printed on shiny matte paper.  Other supplies that I used are:  Card stock - Tranquil Tide, Whisper White and Pear Pizzazz  Ink - Blackberry Bliss, Blushing Bride and Pear Pizazz.  Share What You Love Artisan Pearls in Tranquil Tide. I added some texture to my card base and front panel with the Subtle Dynamic Textured Embossing Folder, and dimension with Stampin’ Dimensionals. The fine tip glue pen was perfect for adhering the fine die cut branches on to the card base.  Purchasing the First Frost stamp ...
