Inspire.Create Stamping Challenges Challenge #087

 Hello and welcome to Inspire.Create Stamping Challenges #087.  I am Karen Farquhar from Australia and we have a sketch challenge for you today.

For my submission I have used the Fine Art Floral Designer Series Paper form Stampin' Up! I always think that the catalogue photos never do the Designer Series Paper justice and this is the case in the Fine Art Floral Paper. It is just stunning in real life. It looks like an artist has used slathers of oil paint to create the beautiful floral images.



For the sentiment I have used the 'baby wipe technique' to create a colour graduation effect on the printing. The colours are Bumble BeePretty Peacock and Coastal Cabana. 
Today I only have time for one card as I have been making lots of Easter gifts which I will share with you later in the week.

Thank you for visiting me today. I hope you have been inspired by my project. Please you are more than welcome to enter your projects for the Inspire.Create Stamping Challenge. We really would love to see your creations. Note we need your projects submitted by 10am. (UK time) Sunday. 

Also hop over for a visit to see the projects of other talented stampers. We are thrilled to introduce two new members to our team,  Jo Blackman and Verity Pursglove. If you are familiar with their creations you will know how excited we are to have them both on our team.

Inspire.Create Stamping Challenges Theme: Anything Goes #086

 Hello and welcome to Inspire.Create Stamping Challenges #086.  I am Karen Farquhar from Australia and we have a Theme challenge for you today namely 'Anything Goes'.

The actual purpose of this challenge is to create anything your heart desires so you will find a variety of creations when you visit the Inspire.Create Stamping Challenges website to see what our team members have submitted for this challenge.

I decided to have a play on the words of this challenge and have created 3 little cards showcasing the Moving Along photopolymer stamp set on page 99 of the Stampin' Up! 2020-2021 Annual Catalogue. Firstly to demonstrate how Stampin' Up! products can be changed around for use on a variety of projects and still coordinate beautifully. Plus the pun of 'Anything Goes' relating to travel. 



Moving Along is such a sweet set and I had such fun coming up with some ideas to use it with.
The first card is for my Grandson who has just passed his driver's licence test. He can't believe he can just get in his car and go without having to rely on other people for lifts. Congratulations Callum.



The next card would make a cute little baby card or with a change of sentiment a card for an older child or even a train lover.



The next card I made just for the heck of it because I love helicopters.
Not that I have any intentions of getting in one. But a CareFlight helicopter did play a huge part in saving my premature granddaughter's life 13 years ago. So I do like helicopters.

Also to tie in with the theme I have used the Stitched with Whimsy Dies meant to look like stitching on a project but I thought they looked a bit like a wiggly road or train track.  
Three cards with three different colour ways, 3 different reasons to mark an occasion and same design but 3 different looks.  
Some examples how Stampin' Up! products are designed to coordinate so well that you can mix and match and 'Anything Goes'!
