Stamping Sunday Blog Hop - Headstart on the Holidays


Hello and welcome stamping friends,
today we are getting a head start on the "holidays" with some Christmas themed crafting.

This lovely stamp set recently made it's way on to my desk as I was delighted with the pretty flowers and the delicate foliage.  It is called Vintage Christmas (159781) and the set pairs beautifully with Bottled Happiness (158684) from the main catalogue AND has a punch to match (Bundled saving 158690, Punch only 158689)

So here is my first play with it, and the projects I made...


I decided to stamp it on to Crumb Cake and used the following colours
White, Poppy Parade, Soft Suede, Garden Green and Old Olive.


After stamping the whole sheet I cut it up to decorate a couple of boxes and make 6 cards.


I used the Gold Pizza boxes that are in the clearance rack currently.


The stamped panels were mounted onto Real Red card and then onto a Very Vanilla card base.


Here is the video of how I created it


Please check out the gorgeous projects from the rest of the hoppers

--{Inspired by My Fair Lady - Floral cards}--

Hi there, we have been enjoying/enduring some hotter days here in the UK, and have recently got back from a holiday with family and friends.

While I was away I scheduled some videos on my YouTube channel, including one where I made these cards with Stampin' Up! products.

I made the black and white paper "ribbon" using the glimmer paper in the July to December 2022 mini catalogue.  Unfortunately I used a couple of embossing folders that have retired.  However we have plenty of others to choose from, and many designs would work on a card like this.

The initial idea was inspired by the dress Eliza Dolittle wears to the Ascot races in the film My Fair Lady.



The flowers were created by colouring punched out flowers with Stampin' Blend markers.



The purple flower was created using the ladybird punch multiple times.



Here is the video of how I made them...
