Tucked away on page 152 of the Stampin’ UP! 2020 – 2021 Annual Catalog is the Forever Gold Laser Cut Specialty Paper. It contains precut card fronts and accent pieces with beautiful leaves. I have used up several packs but I realize I have not really shared it with you very much – I am putting that right today.

My card today features the Joyful Holiday Stamp Set in traditional reds and greens, those holly leaves with the curlicues are just so lovely and the ‘Merry and Bright’ greeting warms my heart.
Continue readingI have a real love of flowers, my dear Mum and dear Aunt both had ‘green’ thumbs, were enthusiastic gardeners and had beautiful gardens. The green thumb skipped a generation – I enjoy the garden when it is blooming but am certainly NOT an enthusiastic gardener, I am inspired by their example because I love the result – not the doing!
We have the power to inspire people just as they inspire us so creating today’s card was easy with the beautiful Inspiring Iris Stamp Set.
Welcome to the Ink & Share Scrapbook blog hop, we are group of international Stampin UP! demonstrators sharing our ideas and creativity with you.
You will have either arrived from Kirstie’s post or starting here ~ either way WELCOME. This month our theme is EMBOSSING – I must confess that I really had to put my thinking cap on for this theme, I had done one last year and wanted to make sure I did something completely different.
Once again I have chosen to use a 12 x 12 page – mainly because Stampin’ UP! has 12 x 12 card stock in all its colors which gives me a fantastic choice.
A couple of weeks ago I shared a card using the Umbrella Builder Punch to create a punch art flower, I was so taken with the idea I decided to have another go at using it for something else ~ other than an umbrella so came up with today’s butterfly card.
This punch pairs with the Under My Umbrella Stamp Set, the large umbrella stamp created the wings, then I used one of the pretty little blossom stamps to create a decorative border with Sahara Sand ink. I am really pleased with the combination of Purple Posy and Blackberry Bliss, the result of some musing while looking at my card stash 🙂
Once again I am thrilled to be taking part in the Ink . Stamp . Share blog hop, we are a group of Stampin’ Up!®️Demonstrators from around the globe here to bring you inspiration through creativity!
You will have either arrived from Sue’s post or starting here ~ either way WELCOME . This month’s theme is ANYTHING GOES!
At the beginning of the year Stampin’ UP! introduced the Umbrella Builder Punch to go along with the coordinating Under My Umbrella Stamp Set (which has the most delious pair of welly boots – which is very on-point at the moment) Anyway, I am so thrilled, these are now part of the 2020 -2021 Annual Catalog!
I like to see if I can make my goodies do more that one thing so I have used the punch to create a flower!
