Inspire.Create Stamping Challenges Theme: Bright and Bold

 Hello and welcome to another Inspire.Create.Challenge. I am Karen Farquhar from Australia. This week we have a theme challenge for you, the theme being 'Bright and Bold'.

I have a great niece turning 4 years old this week so I thought a Bright and Bold card was in order.


To create the card I chose the brightest colour combination I could think of in our Stampin' Up! colour range. I have used the Mini Catalogue's Sweet Treats stamp set, teamed it with the die from the Classic Cloche Bundle and the Bundle's coordinating Cloche Shaker Domes. I then added the bright Shaker Shapes from the Annual catalogue to make a shaker card for her.

I have also created a Christmas card with a coordinating box of tags with the same stamp set yummy enough to eat.
The interlocking fold card I have CASEd from Lori Pinto. For instructions follow her link to watch her YouTube video. She explains the instructions much better than I would.




I designed this card set for my Stamp Club this week. I have filled the Kraft Gift Box with four 2 3/4" square gift cards and 4 coordinating gift tags. If I were to make the set again I would have made the gift cards 3 3/4" square so they would sit more snuggly in the box. To overcome this I tied the gift cards with a ribbon bow to hold them in place.





The measurements for the lining sections of the box are:
Gift tags: 16cm x 16cm scored all four sides at 1.5 and 3cm.
Gift tags: 16cm x 11.5cm scored all four sides at 1.5cm and 3cm.
Pen section: 8cm x 16cm scored at 1.6cm, 3.2cm, 4.8cm, 6.4cm.

Inspire.Create Stamping Challenge 103

Hello and welcome to another Inspire.Create.Challenge. I am Karen Farquhar from Australia. This week the design team have been set a colour challenge using the colours Cherry Cobbler, Crushed Curry Evening Evergreen and Soft Succulent.

I thought these colours
looked a bit Christmasy so I chose to make a set of Christmas cards for this one. The stamp set is Delivering Cheer from our Stampin' Up! current Mini Catalogue. This lovely, versatile set has multiple exchangeable pieces so you can mix and match the images to create several options for your cards. I have made Christmas cards but the gifts could also be for a birthday, the flowers for a get well or any occasion card for that matter. Clever Stampin' Up!


Staying with the same colour combination I have created 2 other cards with the same stamp set. Most of the colouring I did with my Stampin' Blends however we don't have a Crushed Curry blends pen so I have used my Stampin' Write Marker.



For the yellow boots in this card I have re-stamped and fussy cut her boots to try to incorporate more of the Crushed Curry colour. I then used my Basic Black Stampin' Write Marker around the edge of the boots to give them definition.
