Stampin’ Up! Translucent Florals Part 3

Posted in Cards by Chris

In the past two days I have been sharing some of the wonderful projects myself, along with other Stampin’ Up! demonstrators around the globe, were making together as part of the Creativity Now event.
I shared the first project with it’s stepped up version along with my own alternative here.
And the second project and alternative here.

For project 3, I only made my own version of the project, using similar aspects but changing a few things.

I have embossed the piece of white cardstock using the Elegant Eucalyptus Embossing folder and mounted it onto a piece of Fresh Freesia cardstock before adhering it to the white cardbase.
The flowers and small leaves are pieces of Vellum Basics which have been coloured on the reverse side using Stampin’ Blends, in Shaded Spruce and Fresh Freesia. The flowers have then been die cut and layered together using glue dots.

I hope you have been inspired by all the projects we created together at our online event. I know I am inspired.
If you would like to chat and interact with me, make sure you come on over to my Facebook page where you will find more inspiration and ideas.
Happy stamping!
Chris

The salvaged card

Posted in Cards, Flowers by Chris

Another short post tonight, I wanted to share a card that I started a week or so ago, but put aside because it just wasn’t going together.

Yes, we all have those, sometimes things just don’t feel right and don’t go the way we think they are going to.

My solution has always been to put it aside and do something different. My challenge has been, going back to those projects that weren’t working out, to try to finish them. And it’s one of the things I am determined to continue to do – complete those projects, and use the scraps and little pieces that are left over.

So my card was originally one that I was making to feature on the Wild Wheat Colour Creations blog hop, and it does have some Wild Wheat, but not very much.

My card features the Color and Contour stamp set along with the Elegant Eucalyptus embossing folder.

Don’t forget the fantastic joining deal that’s on during June. Reach out if you have any queries. In the meantime, happy stamping.

Colourful Technique with Embossing Folders

Posted in Cards by Chris

My card today features a great technique using embossing folders and sponging shared by US Demonstrator Lisa Freeman, which you can find on here on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/live/sPBk3ozLTSI?feature=share

I have no idea what the name of the technique is, but it was a lot of fun!

My card features the Elegant Eucalyptus Embossing Folder and I’m enjoying playing with the returning colour Berry Burst, which is just soooo yummy!

Here’s the inside of my card…

And below are some other embossed panels that haven’t been used yet but you can see how the technique shows up. Check out Lisa’s vid, it’s a lot of fun playing with this technique.
