Scrumptious new in-colors from Stampin’ Up!
It is not quite 3 weeks since the 2016 – 2017 Annual catalog was launched and with it the new In-colors that we shall have for the next 2 years. The new colors are always greatly anticipated because they are always up-to-date and in line with current trends – Stampin’ Up! go to a lot of trouble to ensure this is the case.
One of the perks of being a demonstrator, I get the chance to see these new colors, a sneak peak at the new catalog in late April and was able to buy some of the new items at the beginning of May and I gotta say – I just love them all, they are clean, bright colors and a wonderful addition to the color families.
Timeless Texture – Double Z Card
The Double Z fold card seems to be very popular at the moment, I have seen lots of examples on Pinterest and YouTube. I am always looking for ideas, designs, techniques and folds for my classes and this one was just too good not to use!
Floral Boutique Suite ~ Stampin’ Up! 2016 – 2017 Catalog
Over the last 4 – 5 months I have been sharing my mission to use Designer Series Paper (DSP) and have posted a lot of projects here so show my progress.
Well the new Stampin’ Up! catalog was made available to demonstrators in mid April and lots of new designs of DSP were included. As soon as I clapped eyes on the Floral Boutique DSP and its coordinating products I fell in love.
The catalog became live on June 1st and now I can share the beautiful suite of products with you…………….. focusing on the DSP Continue reading

Toward the middle of May I had a technique class which was very popular with all the ladies who joined. While I was preparing for the class I used a number of different color combinations which I promised to share.

Happy Birthday – Pop Ups from Stampin’ Up!
This is a fun card which uses the Party Pop-Up Thinlet Dies from Stampin’ Up! They are in the Occasions Catalog which is due to retire on May 31st (but the good news is……………… it has been included in the new 2016 – 2017 Annual catalog, which goes live June 1st!.
I made the card for my youngest grand-daughter’s 1st birthday, but liked it so much I also offered it to my card crafting ladies in April’s class.
Totally over the top ~ but I love it!!!
Today’s card is totally over the top – I love it but it is a card that you would have to give in person rather than put in the post because I just don’t think it would survive!
It is one of my footling cards – I shared one a couple of years ago – footling was a favorite expression of my beloved Aunt Di ~ is just picking up some ‘items’ and playing with them until something comes together .
Break out your DSP ~ Diagonal Slash Card # 2
I promised to share more cards using the Diagonal Slash technique – here are 4 more using the same sheet of DSP from Monday’s Post. These cards are based on an idea from Patty Bennett, which is perfect for my on-going commitment to break out my DSP!
Birthday Bouquet from the Rose Garden
I just love this card – not entirely sure what to call the fold but it is sort of deconstructed, just held together by the Blushing Bride/Whisper White layers and 4 stampin’ dimensionals! While this is definitely a feminine card, change out the colors and the flower it would be a great fold for a fella as well (note to self – need to make a masculine version to share!!!)
