New Product Blog Hop!!!!

Last month saw the release of 11 new products from Stampin' Up! The cardstock and ink pads will be available in the new catalogue coming in October, but the papers, ribbon and window sheets are only available until the end of September or while stocks last!

Over at In Love With Stamping the Stampin' Up! Demos decided to have another blog hop to welcome these new products and colours!

There are 3 loops of blogs - each containing 15/16 blogs! So we hope to offer you lots and lots of inspirational ideas of what you can do with these new products!

You should have come to me from Sharon's fabulous blog, but round 2 starts off at Clare's if you want to start at the beginning :o)

The 3 loops each start off at the wonderfully talented Debbi's blog. I'm the last blog on round 2, so once you've had a looksie, pop back to Debbi and start round 3!



This first project is a design by Lynda Moss a very talented Australian Demo. It's a box which opens out like a book and I've made 4 cards to go inside using the beautiful Live Your Dream stamp set.




I have used Old Olive, Rich Razzleberry and Orchid Opulence cardstock and inks, together with the gorgeous Cottage Wall Designer papers and Rich Razzleberry Dotty Grosgrain ribbon.



This shadow box card uses Soft Suede, Rich Razzleberry and Melon Mambo cardstock and inks, the Cottage Wall DSP and the gorgeous Flower Fantasy Window Sheets .... as well as a little Dazzling Diamonds for a bit of bling! :o) The stamp sets used here are Pocket Silhouettes and the Level 2 Hostess set - Whimsical Wings.



I love this card! The front section opens out to reveal the message. I have used Melon Mambo and Basic Black cardstock and inks. The DSP is Night and Day and I have brayered over the top with Melon Mambo ink ..... truly fabulous! The stamp set is fast becoming a favourite - Bird on a Branch :o)





My final offering is two Father's Day cards. Very simple, using the Lovely as a Tree stamp set. The cardstock and ink is Soft Suede. I have teamed them with Barely Banana for one card and Close To Cocoa for the other. Both use the lovely Soft Suede Dotty Grosgrain ribbon.

Background Stamps - Class Instructions

This is the current class that I am running. It uses several of the fabulous large background stamps from Stampin' Up!



The gift box is very large. I made one last year for my daughter's gym coach to hold the bottles of toiletries she gave her and some of my ladies asked me to run a class based on it :o)

I used Basic Black and Very Vanilla cardstock to match the gorgeous 1 1/4" wide striped grosgrain ribbon. The background stamp is Bella Toile, which is one of the new ones available in the current Idea Book and Catalogue.



The class also contains instructions for creating an additional 3 cards. Two of these use the beautiful Medallion stamp and the other uses both En Francais and the Paisley background stamp.

The instructions for the box and the four cards are available to purchase for £2.50. If you are interested, the details are below. I have written the instructions using UK metric measurements.


Background Stamps - Class Instructions - £3.00

Vintage Vogue I - Class Instructions


This cute little box and card set was created for one of my April classes. The little box was made to hold a small box of Guylian chocolates.



I used this same design for the little gifts I took for my upline and downline when I attended the Reading training day earlier in the year :o)


This card was inspired by one of the wonderfully talented Jo's designs :o) I've used it many times since - it makes a beautiful card suitable for many occasions and is perfect in all colours :o)

The main stamp set used is Vintage Vogue and is available from the Mini Catalogue for £19.95. The jumbo wheel used is Very Vintage, which compliments the stamp set perfectly. It is also available from the Mini Catalogue for £7.50.

The instructions for the box and the two cards are available to purchase for £2.50. If you are interested, the details are below. I have written the instructions using UK metric measurements.

Serene Snowflakes .............




I had another play with a couple of the new products from the Mini catalogue again today. This time I used the really lovely Serene Snowflakes stamp set. This is a four piece set costing £15.95. I used two of the stamps - one for the main image and the other to create a background. I inked them both up using the fabulous Platinum Shimmer paint. I stamped the main image twice. I cut just the middle section out of one of them and then popped this up with dimensionals over the first image. A really simple, but lovely little card :o)

The cardstock colours are Night of Navy and Bashful Blue.
