Here is the third new 2021-2023 in colour called Pale Papaya. Pale Papaya is a light orange shade that fits more with the oranges than I have shown in the comparison above. To showcase Pale Papaya I have again used the Colour & Contour stamp set and dies bundle. I used the scallop border dies to cut the edge of a piece of 2021-2023 In Colour DSP. This was mounted on a Thick Basic White card base. I stamped a greeting from the Etched in Nature stamp set in Pale Papaya. I stamped and die cut the daisy image three times and arranged them on the front of the card. Before I attached the flowers I wrapped a piece of the Open Weave Ribbon around the card front. I will be back tomorrow with the fourth new In Colour - Evening Evergreen. Thanks for visiting, Rachel
Hello stamping friends, The Lazy Days Bundle (#161343) consists of the Lazy days stamp set (#161340) and the Lazy Days dies (#161342). I used one of the designs from the Fresh As A Daisy Designer Series Paper (#161289) for the background, and matted this with Blueberry Bushel card (#146991), then attached it to the Basic White base card (#159228). The chair and table from the Lazy Days stamp set was stamped with Blueberry bushel ink (#147138), then cut with the co-ordinating dies. The drinks were coloured with Sweet Sorbet Stampin’ Blend (#159224). The frieze and balustrade are also cut with the Lazy days dies. I used Adhesive Sheet (#152334) on the back of the Basic White card. The hanging pot plant was stamped with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708) and coloured with Lost Lagoon Stampin’ Blends (#161680) and Lemon Lolly Stampin’ Blends (#161673) and cut with a Lazy days die. “Welcome” is also from the Lazy days stamp set and I used a cloud die to cut this. The chair, table, pot plant and sentiment were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The vine was cut from Lost Lagoon card (#133686) which was backed with Adhesive Sheet making it easy to attach it to the card. “Love what you do and share what you love.” INSPIRE. CREATE.

Happy Friday friends! This weeks fun Just Add Ink challenge is from Fiona and she has challenged us to create a CAS project...pretty much my fave style of crafting! I couldn't resist inking up and colouring the new to me By My Side stamps for this one. I started with a blended patch in Wild Wheat & Pecan Pie inks and a simple diecut from the Share a Milkshake dies. The sweet image is coloured with Lemon Lime Twist - Wild Wheat blends and the skintone blends in SU500-SU800-Ivory & the colour lifter. I also added some tiny hearts using the retired border punch and some finetip glue was added to the glasses.

Hello stampers! I have more beautiful newness to share with you today. This set, Everlasting Beauty, was another set that was on my wish list as soon as I saw it. For these two cards I used two different colouring techniques. The first card is coloured using watercolouring and the second card was coloured using Blends Markers. I stamped the three images in Stazon Black on Fluid Watercolor paper and coloured using the ink colours listed below. I cut out the coloured images using two different sized squares from the Stylish Shapes Dies. I used one of the Foursquare Masks and Blending Brushes to add interest to the card base. For the second card I stamped the protea image in Memento Black ink on Basic White card stock. I coloured with the Blends colours listed below. I then very carefully fussy cut the image. The greeting was heat embossed in White Embossing Powder on Old Olive card stock. I used the circles from the Stylish Shapes to cut the greeting and the circle behind the flower. The background of the card was embossed with the Timeworn 3D Embossing Folder. I love the images in this set, I'm looking forward to using them for heaps of projects. All of the products used are listed below and available in my online store. Please contact me with any questions, I'm always happy to discuss Stampin' Up!

Hello stamping friends! Happy Friday! It's new challenge day over at Just Add Ink and do we have a fun challenge for you - Just Add Ink #604 | Just Add a CASE of Yourself Challenge suggested by fellow JAI team member Jan. How fun!!! When I am stuck for new ideas I sometimes go back to my older card designs and CASE myself and that will usually get the creative ideas flowing. Do you do that too? I know I'm not the only one. With CASEing the idea is to use the original design but to change it up and 'make it your own'. This is my original card that I made back in January 2021. So not that long ago. I really loved the layering of the cardstock and the DSP along with the flowers in each corner. I thought this card design really lended itself so well to the Stampin' Up! Abigail Rose suite that I had just ordered and really wanted to use. And this is then my CASEd card. As you can see I've kept to the same basic design but I've changed it up a slightly. I really thought the floral image from the Cottage Rose stamp set was too large to add two of them to this card as like the original. I still tried to layer ribbon, twine and die cuts with this flower to make a floral 'spray' like my original. I've finished off the card with some heat embossed gold splatters, basic pearls and the Happy Birthday sentiment stamped in Early Espresso ink on Very Vanilla cardstock. I do hope that you are inspired by my original creation and my CASEd version here today. I can't wait to see your CASEd creations and how you changed up one of your original creations. The slightest change can make a card look completely different. There are lots of AMAZING creations from the rest of the Just Add Ink Design Team on the JAI Blog. Go and check out to see their CASEd projects and then while you are there you can see how you can enter your project.Can't wait to see your creations. Thanks so much for stopping by! Happy Stamping!

Orchid Oasis with Ranunculus Romance Hello. Welcome to Valley Inspirations with Andrea and the Art with Heart Colour Creations Blog Hop. We are starting afresh to work though all the Stampin' Up! colours in alphabetical order, although as we begin a new round, we are featuring the new In Colours for 2022 to 2024. This week’s Blog Hop is focussing on a deep purple with rich blue undertones called Orchid Oasis. As mentioned, Orchid Oasis is part of the In Colour Family and is a beautifully rich blue purple. This colour is gorgeous on its own or with touches of gold. It is going to be fun over the next 2 years to explore colour combos that go well with this colour. Orchid Oasis is produced in Stampin' Up!'s card-stock, both A4 & 12"x12"; Classic Stampin' inks (ink pads, Spots & re-inkers); Stampin' Write Markers; Stampin' Blends, In Colours 2022-2024 Designer Series Papers, Tea Boutique Cards & Envelopes and Designer Series Paper, In Colour Bakers Twine, Shimmer Ribbon, Glimmer Paper and Matte Decorative Dots. The card below has used Orchid Oasis Classic Stampin' ink, Card-stock, Stampin' Write Marker plus a range of other non-PP bits and pieces. Here is the card showcasing the delightful Orchid Oasis: Isn't Orchid Oasis a beautiful colour. CARD 1: This card shows the beauty of Orchid Oasis through some tone on tone stamping, ink blending and stamping on white, as well as some splatters. I loved playing with Orchid Oasis this week. It is a beautiful colour. My time to create was very short for this project given commitments over the past week so I decided to only use the featured colour and Basic White with touches of Gold. Orchid Oasis card-stock and ink was used with some partial background stamping with the scripty stamp from the Ranunculus Romance stamp set. Some Basic White card-stock was die cut with a Stitched Rectangle die. Some Orchid Oasis ink was blended over the LHS using a Blending Brush, then the panel was stamped with the Eiffel Tower and script stamps. Some splatters were added using an Orchid Oasis Stampin' Write Marker. The beautiful Ranunculus stamp was stamped a couple of times in Orchid Oasis Classic ink. Sadly, I couldn't find my Ranunculus dies, so I fussy cut the full flower spray and the two larger flower heads from the second stamped image. Having lost time trying to find my dies I had to alter my design quickly and use dies that were easily at hand. Some Gold Foil was die cut with one of the little floral sprays from the Honey Bee Bloom dies and the larger leaf die from the Meadows dies was used on some Basic White card-stock. A little Orchid Oasis ink was blended over the white leaf die cut. The fussy cut flowers and the leaf were partially Gold heat embossed on the edges using Versamark ink, Gold Stampin' Emboss Powder and a Heat Gun. The larger ticket die from the Sports Events dies cut a label from the Vellum Layering Designs. The leaf and flowers were arranged over the vellum label and the individual flower heads were layered over the flowers with Mini Dimensionals. A double bow was tied with the gold Simply Elegant Trim and attached with Glue Dots. A sentiment from the same stamp set was White Heat embossed with White Stampin' Emboss Powder on Orchid Oasis card-stock and then fussy cut. Some Iridescent Rhinestone Basic Jewels added a little shimmer, together with a splattering of Wink of Stella (which is so hard to capture in the photos). My time completely disappeared and so I didn't have a chance to work on the card inner or envelope. It will happen but later. I sincerely thank Emma Goddard, UK Stampin' Up! Demonstrator and past Artisan for her inspiration. I so love Emma and her amazing talent and noticed as this card came together her definite influence. Thank you so much for dropping by. I do value the time you spent with me. If you live in Australia, don't already have a Stampin' Up! demonstrator and would like your own copy of Stampin' Up's new 2022-2023 Annual Catalogue and or the January - June 2022 Mini Catalogue then let me know and I will be delighted to send them to you.

When I saw these in the Christmas Catty, I knew I had to add them to my list. My inital thought was that they will make a gorgeous card used on their own but they will pair with so many other products as well. There is nothing like that one special really pretty christmas bauble to pop on the tree. So with that in mind, I had to make this one sparkly and I chose Red as the coordinating colour as its a traditional christmas colour. The die cut itself is quite detailed and intricate in its design which gives it a beautiful look. I am happy with this card and I can't wait to send it this festive season. Thank you for stopping by to check out my card today. All items used to make this card feature below and are available from my online store anytime. Until next time Happy Stamping!

Hi peeps! Thursday brings us a new lovely Inspired By inspiration photo: and here's the optional sketch, which I used this week: I promised I would be using the new Hand-Penned Petals again, and here it is! I used some Hand-Penned DSP along with one of the new In Colors, Soft Succulent, and used two more In Colors to watercolor the floral, Pale Papaya and Fresh Freesia: Instead of using the two-step stamp to color the flowers, I used ink and an aquapainter. After diecutting the flower, I embellished the circle panel with a couple of black sequins from my stash and a Basic Black sentiment from the Well Written dies: The Crumb Cake card base was embossed with the Subtle embossing folder before adhering everything together! Now I hope you'll find some inspiration from our photo this week and play along with us at Inspired By as well! Thanks for visiting today! We have an alarm in our driveway that alerts us when someone is driving in.....and it went off at 8:30 in the morning, which is pretty unusual for company! When I went to look to see who it was, this is what I saw: The neighbors across the street have a small pond and every spring, two Canada geese build a nest, and I guess they decided to come over for a visit!
