Layered Labels

 
Today I've gone back to the main 2012-13 catalogue which I think we tend to forget about when there are mini catalogues for Autumn/Winter and soon Spring/Summer plus of course Sale-a-Bration.
 
 
The stamp set is Layered Labels which matches the Apothacary Accents Framelits perfectly.
 
The edges of the label have been inked with Island Indigo to emphasise the shape and a couple of brads added to give it a bit of texture.
 
I love the simplicity of this card.

Dressed Up

As I said in a previous post, I just love this set and can't get enough of it.  I think it will feature on my blog quite a bit in the coming weeks!

This time I've used the Dressed Up Framelits Dies with the fabulous Twitterpated DSP to make the card below.  This is so quick and easy and no cutting involved!




If you'd like to know more about these fabulous Framelits Dies and stamp sets, please email me.

New classes are being planned so watch this space for details - or email me.

All Dressed Up!

Hi.  I must first apologise for the lack of posts recently but hopefully my blog is now back on my agenda.

I had a delivery from Mr UPS this week and I'm just loving the new products in the Spring/Summer catalogue.

One of my favourite products is the stamp set All Dressed Up and the matching Framelits Dies.  This is such a fabulously flexible set and very girlie!


For this card I also used the Ovals Collection of Framelits Dies as well to make the base of the card as well as the layers.

I'll be back soon with lots more projects.

Postage Due

I just love this stamp set and here it looks completely different to the cards I made a week or two ago.  This is basically one stamp even though it looks as if I've used several stamps.  The addition of the "stamp" highlights the card and has been raised using Dimensionals.


I'm a bit hooked on the new 2012-13 In Colours!  This card is Raspberry Ripple with Gumball Green together with the fabulous co-ordinating ribbon.

Treat Bag and Matching Card

At the recent quarter Jem's training, we made this wonderful project which is perfect for a small birthday gift for a friend.  I also made a matching card with the remaining paper.  Well I say paper; it is more like thin card and is brilliant for making boxes and bags.

The paper for the bag is Natural Composition Speciality paper.  The pink paper is from the In Colour Designed Paper Stack with matching cardstock in Raspberry Ripple, one of the new colours for 2012-13.

As always, Stampin' Up! have co-ordinating ribbon; check out the 1 cm stitched satin ribbon in the In-Colours.

The new Vintage Faceted Designer Buttons just go with anything and everything.  The pack has 24 buttons in three different sizes so plenty for all your cards and projects.

The flower is made from 5 layers of punched flowers using the Blossom Punch.  The punched flowers have been dampened, scrunched and layered to give a 3D effect. 

 
 

The card has been made from the remaining paper with a butterfly punched out using the new Elegant Butterfly punch with another of the Vintage Faceted Designer Buttons in the middle.
 



Watch our for more projects using this fabulous paper and gorgeous 2012-13 In Colours.

Happy Birthday Boys!

Today is the boys' birthday - and no, I'm not telling how old they are!

The cards were inspired by the monthly newsletter which Stampin' Up! sends to all demonstrators called Impressions.


The stamp set is "Postage Due" from the 2012-13 Annual Catalogue and has been stamped in Basic Grey.  The "stamp" was punched out with the the Postage Stamp Punch and a square punch and raised with some dimensionals.

The next card classes will be on Wednesday 21 November at 7.30 pm and Sunday 25 November at 2 pm.  Email me on sally@girliepink.com if you'd like to join us.
