Inspire.Create Stamping Challenges #068

Hello and welcome I am Karen Farquhar from Australia and I thank you for joining me today for Inspire.Create Stamping Challenge #068. I was really itching to to start playing with the new Ornate Garden Suite. The Ornate Garden Suite is featured in the new 2020-2021 Annual Catalogue but Stampin' Up! have provided it to us for pre-release. So we are able to purchase it now. Just a little tease of what's to come.   

The Ornate Suite features detailed floral images, gold foil, gems, ribbons and elegant borders with beautiful coordinating dies. These dies are a must have. Also there is sweet little embossing folder Ornate Floral 3D.

I have mainly played with the dies for my cards but the Designer Series Paper will be a firm favourite as well.

Thank you for visiting me.  I hope you have been inspired by the project I have presented 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. Note we need your projects submitted by 10am.

Inspire.Create Stamping Challenges #061

Hello and welcome I am Karen Farquhar from Australia and I thank you for joining me today for Inspire.Create Stamping Challenge #061. 

Today we have a colour challenge for you and to be truthful I found this one difficult.

Our colours are Early Espresso, Flirty Flamingo and Pretty Peacock. Not saying they aren't all beautiful colours but I did find combining the three a challenge.

So I pulled out everything in these colours in my craft room, had a sit down and played.

The stamp set Beautiful Promenade has been waiting to be inked up  for a while. So I dusted it off and set to work. The images in this set stamp so clearly they are just beautiful to work with.

I created two cards and a smaller gift card.

And then while I was on a roll I created two more cards using the sponging technique. Sponging gives the colours a softer appearance.

 So I ended up with 5 cards in two different styles of using the same colour combinations and different techniques.
