Stampin' with Picture Perfect for #GDP085 #stampinup

Hi Everyone

Thanks for stopping by and welcome to another challenge entry for Global Design Project #GDP085. It's a colour challenge this week, which means that the winner will be invited back to be a Guest Designer for the next colour challenge. It would be a great honour to highlight a colour theme with the Design Team and a massive achievement to win this challenge as there are always great projects from other entries.

With the looming retirement of these In Colours, it's a great opportunity to play with them again. I have also used a retiring stamp set ~ Picture Perfect, for my projects this week.

I used 4 of the 2015-2017 In Colours; Watermelon Wonder, Cucumber Crush, Delightful Dijon and Tip Top Taupe. There are 2 projects as I am still trying to make use of the DSP's we have and wanted a border for the main image. I swapped the die cut circles to have a different coloured border to the woodgrain design of the papers.

Cardbase A5 folded in half

DSP 12.8cm x 10cm

Delightful Dijon card strip 10cm x 2cm

Die cut 2nd largest circle from the Layering Circles Framelits on the DSP

Stamp the flower on Whisper White: 2nd Generation Watermelon Wonder, 1st Generation Watermelon Wonder & 2nd Generation Memento Black

Die cut the flower using the circle Stitched Framelit and mount with Dimensionals

Stamp the leaves on Whisper White: 2nd Generation Memento Black, 1st Generation Cucumber Crush & 2nd Generation Cucumber Crush

Fussy cut the leaves using Paper Snips

Stamp the sentiment with Memento Black

Add the ribbon and pearls

2 #GDP076 Entries, 1 Post

Hi Everyone

We are playing along in the Global Design Project challenge #GDP076 and this week is Case The Designer...Kylie Bertucci!

We both wanted to play along in this challenge as Kylie's card inspired us both.

Here is Barry's entry for the challenge:

Barry's entry for #GDP076

I used the same stamp set, Special Reason with the 2015-2017 In Colours and created 2 panels. The sentiment is nicely framed in the Stitched Shapes Framelits on top of the Layering Ovals die cut.

I also decorated the inside of the card by stamping the flower in Mint Macaron

Stampin' Build A Birthday For Our Class

Hi all

 Hope you have had a lovely weekend.

Last week was a busy week for us as we we had our first Stampin' Up! Class on Saturday 6 June. Everything went well and we are both happy with how it went. 

A massive thank you to the ladies who came along to support us. I hope you enjoyed yourselves.

We just need to get some more interest in our little group. So if anyone is interested in joining us then please contact us for some more details. It will be a fun time and a chance for you to meet other people interested in crafting and off course I'm sure there will be biscuits or cake. 

We wanted to show off the new Build A Birthday stamp set from the new catalogue and an easy box made using the Gift Box Punch Board. Both cards and box have been inked using the 2014-2016 & 2015-2017 In Colours Ink pads and card stock as well as whisper white card stock.

We hope you like what we planned.

If you like any of these products you can purchase them via our shop link bellow.

Thank you for looking.
