Inspire.Create. Stamping Challenges Challenge #205

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.

Inspire.Create. Stamping Challenges Challenge#181|Christmas

Hello and welcome to another Inspire.Create Stamping Challenge. I am Karen Farquhar from Australia. This week we have been set the theme challenge 'Christmas'.

For challenge #181 I cranked up my friend the Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine. I have embossed my background with the Snowflake Sky 3D Embossing Folder. For the Christmas bauble element I have used the Hang an Ornament Dies and the One of a Kind Dies. The silver embossed sentiment and scattered gems from my stash completes the card (the gems are no longer available but Stampin' Up! Rhinestones Basic Jewels would serve just as well).

A very simple card to pull together if you have a stack of Christmas cards to make.

Inspire.Create. Stamping Challenges: Challenge #180|Colour Challenge

 Hello and welcome to the Inspire.Create Stamping Challenge. I am Karen Farquhar from Australia. This week we have been set a colour challenge. The challenge colour challenge being 'Many Shades of Grey'.

I chose to make a shaker card for my submission.

I have used a piece of Designer Series Paper (DSP) from Stampin' Up!'s Winter Meadow DSP. The paper depicts a reindeer standing in a snow scene. A little difficult to see in the photograph due to reflection off the window sheet. The shaker elements are the White Loose Snowflakes and the embossing folder is the Painted Trees Embossing Folder. All available in my Online Store.

Inspire.Create. Stamping Challenges Sketch Design #029

Hello and welcome I am Karen Farquhar from Australia and thank you for joining me today for the Inspire.Create Stamping Challenge #029.

Challenge #029 is a Sketch Challenge

Well with the Christmas Season creeping up very quickly I thought I should get my act together and start on my Christmas card making. So for this week's challenge I have designed a Christmas card with the Dashing Deer Bundle. I have teamed it up with some copper embossing, a Copper Foil Sheet and the Softly Falling Embossing Folder. I liked the way the copper embossing picked up the swirly design on the reindeer.

To coordinate with my card I have created some gift tags using the same Dashing Deer Bundle.

The Joyous Noel Designer Series Paper doesn't photograph so well but it is just beautiful in real life. Seasonal designs on one side and copper foil accents on the other. I skipped over it in the catalogue but after seeing some projects created by a friend I am now on to my second pack. 

Thank you for visiting me today. Please, you are more than welcome to enter your projects for the Inspire.Create Stamping Challenges here. We really would love to see your creations. Also pop over for a visit to see the projects of other talented stampers.
