Inspire. Create Stamping Challenges |Never too Early for Christmas


Hello and welcome to another Inspire.Create Stamping Challenge. I am Karen Farquhar from Australia. This week we have a theme challenge for you 'Never too Early for Christmas'. Christmas my favourite time of the year, but gee how it sneaks up on you.




For my submission today I have chosen the Stampin' Up's Jar of Joy stamp and punch bundle and teamed it with their Traditions of Christmas Designer Series Paper. A little sneak peek for you.



I have created a gate card and have stamped a sentiment on the inside. The cute little gingerbread man is from the Stampin' Up! Homemade Treats stamp set. Another sneak peek for you.




You will find the Homemade Treats stamp set, the Traditions of Christmas Designer Series Paper and the Traditional Sparkling Sequins in my online store later this week. 

I hope you like my projects today and I have inspired you to enter the challenge. You can see more inspiration from our talented team over on the Inspire.Create. Stamping Challenges blog site.

Inspire.Create Stamping Challenges Challenge 199|Clean and Simple

Hello and welcome to challenge #199 a Theme Challenge. 
Our theme challenge for today is 'Clean & Simple'.

For my submission I have chosen to ink up the cute, cute, cute 'Hugs & Healing' stamp set.




Do you know someone having a RUFF day then this stamp set is for you. The sentiments and colourable pet images are perfect for get well cards or for just sending a little cheer.
The 'Hugs and Healing' stamp set adds a fun and thoughtful touch to your card projects.



For a little more fun I created two z-fold cards to try and brighten the day of someone under the weather.
 

        


It's always handy to have some get well cards on hand I think and this stamp set is suitable for children and animal lovers alike.



To make these cards I have used Jilli Bling's YouTube instructions.

Below are the products I have used for today's projects. Just a note my cards have been created with Basic White cardstock but for some reason my camera is giving them a pink hue. Maybe it's the horrible dull weather we are having at the moment.

Inspire.Create. Stamping Challenges- Circles

Hello and welcome to another Inspire.Create Stamping Challenge. I am Karen Farquhar from Australia. This week we have a theme challenge for you 'Circles'. I found this challenge pretty easy so I have designed 2 cards however time prevented me for creating even more.

For the first card I dug into my stash of punches and dies to create this multiple coloured card. Mostly using the Stampin' Ups! Brights Colour range. If you are an Australian you may realise you have seen this design before on our Lotto envelopes. I thought the colours were so bright and cheerful I wanted to CASE the design for a card to team with some Lotto tickets for the recipient. A great masculine card I think.



For my second design I have used Stampin' Ups! Stylish Shapes Dies to cut out a number of circles in our 2025-2027 In Colours Cardstock. I then adhered them to a Basic White card stock background then dry embossed it with the Dotted Circles embossing folder.

                                    

 Stampin' Up! have a great promotion this month with products from the 2025-2027 In Colours collection being reduced by 15%, as from the 5th of August up until the 31st of August. The sale includes select inks, Cardstock designer series paper, embellishments and other products that include 2025-2027 In Colours. While stocks last.


I hope you like my project today and I have inspired you to enter the challenge. You can see more inspiration from our talented team over on the Inspire.Create. Stamping Challenges blog site.
