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.

Hello and welcome to Inspire.Create Stamping Challenge #192. I am Karen Farquhar from Australia. Today our challenge is 'A Card the Incorporates a Tag'. 

I have chosen the Tags To Suite for my submission obviously for the title of the suite and for it's vibrant colours. But what I wanted as to give my customers a bookmark using our new In Colors to go with their new Annual 2025-2026 Catalogues, so I have made bookmarks which slide into the front of the cards.

And the new In Colors for 2015-2017 are:-

Cloud Cover

These new colours will be available May 6th with the release of the new 2025-2026 Annual Catalogue. Only 2 more sleeps.
