Kylie's Demonstrator Training Monthly Team Blog Hop March 2020

Welcome to Kylie's Demonstrator Training Monthly Team Blog Hop for March. You will be visiting talented Stampin' Demonstrators from around the world as the share their ideas and projects to help inspire you. I hope that you enjoy our blog hop today.

 Today's card is a bright and cheerful clean and simple card design featuring the new Rise & Shine stamp set (item #152303) from the Sale-a-bration 2nd Release. I love the fun images and sentiments that are perfect for creating projects to help brighten someone's day. I combined this stamp set with the coordinating Cup of Cheer Dies (item #151150) that carried over from the 2019 Holiday Catalog and the dies work perfectly with the images in this stamp set. 

 For my card design, I used Coastal Cabana cardstock for my card base and added a layer of Bermuda Bay cardstock that I embossed using the Stone 3D Embossing Folder from the Power of Hope Bundle (item #152318)  from the Sale-a-bration Catalog. I love the texture that this embossing folder adds to the background. I die cut a label using the Stitched Nested Labels Dies (item #149638) from Pool Party cardstock to create the focal design for my card. 

To create the cup, I stamped the image from the Rise & Shine stamp set with Mango Melody Classic ink onto Whisper White cardstock and embellished it with the small flower image from the Thoughtful Blooms stamp set (item #152290), also using Mango Melody Classic ink. I die cut the cup image using the coordinating die from the Cup of Cheer Die set (item #151150). I stamped one of the larger flowers onto a scrap of Whisper White cardstock using the same ink and punched it out using the coordinating Small Blossom Punch (item #152316). I attached it to the center of the circle of the cup with a Stampin' Dimensional and embellished it with a Basic Rhinestone.

The sentiment was stamped onto the bottom of the label using Bermuda Bay Classic ink and I stamped the steam image twice towards the top of the label using Pool Party Classic ink, so that the images slightly overlapped. I added the die cut cup to the label with Stampin' Dimensionals so that the steam appears to come out of the top of the cup. 

Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog. I hope my clean and simple card design helps inspire you to have some fun creating with the products in the Sale-a-bration catalogs. There are so many wonderful possibilities whether you choose to use just one or combine several together as I have done to create a fun design.

Colour Combo February Blog Hop

Welcome to the Colour Combo February Blog Hop and this month we have been challenged to use Pool Party, Merry Merlot and Pineapple Punch to create our project. You will be visiting with Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from around the world as they share their ideas and projects to help inspire you. 

 My card design today has been created using products from the 2020 Sale-a-bration Catalog. I chose to use the Thoughtful Blooms stamp set (item #152290), which can be earned Free with a qualifying $50 order and combined it with the coordinating Small Blooms Punch (item #152316), which can be earned Free with a qualifying $100 order. Whether you chose to use them separately or together, both of these products offer a lot of creative possibilities.

To create my card, I chose to use Pineapple Punch cardstock for the card base and I added a layer of Pool Party cardstock for the background. Using the larger leaf image, I stamped it several times onto the Pool Party cardstock to create and background and heat embossed it with White Embossing Powder. 

The small flowers were created by stamping a variety of the flower images from the Thoughtful Blooms stamp set onto a scrap piece of Whisper White cardstock and punching them out using the Small Blooms Punch. I used a combination of Merry Merlot, Pool Party and Pineapple Punch Classic inks to create the variety of flowers. To decorate the background, I stamped the small dots image randomly onto the Pool Party cardstock. I added the punched out flowers to the card front using Mini Stampin' Dimensionals and added Basic Rhinestones to the centers for a touch of bling.

The sentiment for this card design was stamped onto Whisper White cardstock with Pool Party Classic ink and I die cut it using the smallest die from the Layering Ovals Dies (item #151771) and layered it onto a scalloped oval die cut from Pineapple Punch cardstock using the same die set. I attached the sentiment to the card front with Snail Adhesive and added two small Basic Rhinestones to finish off the design. I love the dimension that the punched flowers add to this card design and the pretty Spring feeling this stamp set creates. 

Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog. I hope that my card design inspires you to explore using punches in your projects as a way to add fun and dimension.
