Karen Farquhar: November 2025

Hello and welcome to the Inspire.Create Stamping Challenge. I am Karen Farquhar from Australia. Today we have been set a colour challenge. The challenge being Monochrome - Any Occasion.

I have chosen to go with my favourite colour Blue and of course Stampin' Up! made it easy with the beautiful Peaceful Garden Suite Collection.

This suite takes the guesswork out of coordination.

I have decorated an empty Stampin' Up! kit box added cards, a shaker frame ornament and 2026 diary to create a gift box for someone special.

A pretty pen from our local House to Home shop coordinated beautifully with my set.

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.

Please we really would love to see your creations. We need your projects submitted here by 10am. Sunday (UK time).

Below are the products I have used for today's project.

Hello and welcome to another Inspire.Create Stamping Challenge. I am Karen Farquhar from Australia. This week we have a sketch challenge for you.

Of course as with all our challenges you can choose to use any theme or format to create your submission.

For a quick and easy card I have copied the sketch exactly choosing to use basic white card stock, gold foil, the jolly holly hybrid embossing folder and Modern Christmas Designer Series Paper.

My gold foil holly leaves were die cut with the Christmas Greenery dies.
