Week 9 - Colour Creations Showcase - Cherry Cobbler

Week 9 - Cherry Cobbler

https://whatcathymade.com.au/?p=5383 

     Hi Everyone, and welcome to week 9 of the colour Creations Showcase. This weeks colour is Cherry Cobbler and as the name says this is a lovely rich dark red colour it is part of the Regals Collection of colours. 

     This week I have 2 cards for you all to see, my first is using the "To a Wild Rose" bundle which can be found on page 15 of the 2020-2021 Annual Catalogue. This card started life as a Cherry Cobbler cards base and I added a white layer with 3 Cherry Cobbler strips on the left hand side. I then stamped my message onto an white card and die cut out in oval along with another scalloped oval in Cherry Cobbler and attached to the front of the card using dimensionals. I then stamped the large flower (which if a 3 stage stamp) using the stamparatus along with the leaves and then die cut them and attached to the front of the card. 
     
     I left the inside blank as I am going to write a letter to send this card to my Pen Friend in the UK, we have been friend since we were both 7 years old, even with the miles between us these days we still write letters to each other. (on Paper)

     For my 2nd card once again I started with a Cherry Cobbler card base and then I added a strip of DSP from the new Aug-Dec 2020 Mini Catalogue That goes live on the 4th August 2020 this Paper is from the 'Tis the Season range on page 31 of the Mini Catalogue. I attached this to a white card and then run it through the Big Shot using the "Old World Paper" 3D Embossing folder. I then stamped the poppy from the  "Painted Poppies" stamp set and coloured them using the Cherry Cobbler Blender pens. I added my Happy Birthday from the "Peaceful Moments" Bundle using the die to cut out the tag. I coloured 3 of the Champagne Rhinestones using the Dark Cherry Cobbler blender pen and place them onto the front of the card.

      Once again I left the inside of the card blank as this stage. All the items in these 2 project can be found in the 2020-2021 Annual Catalogue and the August- December 2020 Mini Catalogue, if you would like to purchase any or all of the items used in these projects please give me a call, email or PM, so that I can help you with your purchase.

Week 8 Colour Creations Showcase - Calypso Coral

Week 8 - Calypso Coral

Hello Everyone and Welcome to week 8 of the Art with Heart Colour Creations Showcase. This week our colour is Calypso Coral which is a beautiful Orange Brown and part of the Subtles Collection of Colours. 
I thought that I would use the New Pampered Pet Bundle for this card, I thought having a rusty brown dog would look really good and I was happy with the results.


 I Started with a Very Vanilla Card base and added layers in Basic Black, Calypso Coral and Very Vanilla. I then cut out 3 of the Stitched Nested Labels in the same colours and arranged them on the card front after stamping Happy Birthday form the Peaceful Moments set. I then stamped the forward facing dog along with the backwards facing dog onto some very vanilla card and the using my Calypso Coral blender pens to colour the 2 dogs. placing the 2 top nested labels onto dimensionals along with the dogs to give plenty of depth to the project. I finished off by stamping some of the little hearts and colouring them using the light Cherry Cobbler Blender and then added some of the New Wonderful Gems that can be found in the 2020 Mini Catalogue (that will be due out on the 4th  August 2020)


I layered the inside of my card to match the outside and stamped my sentiment from the Pampered Pets Bundle along with the little hearts that I once again coloured using the Light Cherry Cobbler Blender pen. 
This bundle comes with both cats and Dogs so it is a lovely set for all animal lovers, If you would like to purchase this bundle or any of the other product used in this project please give me a call, email or PM me so that I can help you with your purchase. Alternatively if you would prefer to shop online go the the Stampin' Up! website when you are asked for a demonstrator please place my name "Diane Furniss" in the space provided. Thank you.

     Hi Everyone and welcome to the Heart of Christmas 2020 Blog-hop. This is a monthly blog that will be published on the 3rd Monday of each month and showcasing the beautiful Christmas products in the 2020 August - December 2020 Mini Catalogue.
I have chosen for my 1st project of this blog a Diamond Spring Card using the beautiful new DSP Called Poinsettia Place (page 15) along with the Poinsettia Petals Bundle (page15) I am really loving this new bundle and can see me using it a lot. 
So drum roll........... here is my card.........


     This is a lovely fun fold and is so easy to make, but looks so fabulous (well I think so anyway) 
I decided to use Very Vanilla card along with Garden green and Real Red for the flowers. I kept my colours very traditional as I thought this card needed to be that way.  I did however stamp my Merry Christmas in Cherry Cobbler as Real Red didn't look bright enough on the Very Vanilla Card.
     My writing panel is on the bottom of the card and I stamped my insert message here along with some berries from the same stamp set.

     
     I didn't place a Garden Green layer on here but wish that I had after (next time) so as you can see there is plenty of place to write your message here and this card also fits into a 5 1/2 inch square envelope for posting.
All the items used in this project can be found in the Annual 2020-2021 and Aug- Dec 2020 Mini Catalogues. If you would like to purchase any of these product please give me a Call, Email or PM so that I can help you with your purchase.

Week 7 Colour Creations Showcase - Cajun Craze

Week 7 - Cajun Craze

https://whatcathymade.com.au/?p=5343 

Hello and welcome to week 7 of the "Art with Heart" Colour Creations Showcase. This week our colour is Cajun Craze, this is a very rich golden brown colour and part of the Regals collection.
This week I thought I would do something a little different so I decided to create a small gift box and matching Thank You card.

Using only Cajun Craze and Very Vanilla card stock. My little box is 4 x 3 inches (7.6 x 10.2)cm in size and the card is the same size. I used the dies from the So Sentimental bundle along with the dies from the Ornate Garden bundle to create the box and Card. and finished the top of the box off with a little white ribbon that I coloured using the Ivory Blender pen. the champagne Rhinestones just set off the top of the card as well as show where to open the box.


Once you open the box you can see that it will hold 4 small chocolate just nicely. I think this would make a lovely little gift set for someone who you wish to thank or is feeling a little under the weather. 
All the items used in this project can be found in the 2020-2021 Annual Catalogue (except for the Chocolate) if you would like to purchase these product please give me a call email or PM me so that I might help you with your purchase. 
Now to catch up with all the other beautiful Cajun Craze projects in this weeks Showcase please head over to Catherine's Page Here-:
Have a great week........

Week 6 Colour Creations Showcase - Bumble Bee

Week 6 Colour Creations Showcase - Bumble Bee

https://whatcathymade.com.au/?p=5307 
Well Hello to everyone and I hope it's been a good week. Here we are with week 6 of the 2020-2021 Colour Creations Showcase and as we are going through the colours in Alphabetical order we are now at Bumble Bee. This is one of the new In Colors for 2020-2022 and I just love the rich golden yellow that this colour brings to the Stampin' Up! range. 

I have chosen to do some tone on tone stamping to take advantage to this beautiful colour and I chose the lovely Celebrate Sunflower stamp set and dies to create my card.

So I started with a Bumble Bee card base and added a Whisper White layer and then stamped the large sunflower onto the Bumble Bee Layer and then added this to the front of the card. I then die cut out the beautiful filigree sunflower in Gold foil sheet and place this onto so dimensionals, I also die cut 2 green leaves and glued them in place. 
I stamped my Sentiment using Early Espresso and then sponged around the edge. I placed a flagged end banner behind to finish it off. 


My inside of the card I kept simple by stamping the large sunflower using Bumble Bee ink I only wanted part of the flowers so stamping in 2 opposite corners worked well. My words I stamped in Early Espresso to match the front of the card. 
All the items used in this project can be found in the 2020-2021 Annual Catalogue, if you would like to purchase any or all of the products used here please give me a call, email or PM me.

Colour Crations Showcase - Week 5 Blushing Bride

https://whatcathymade.com.au/?p=5236 

Hello and Welcome to week 5 of the colour Creations Showcase. This weeks colour is Blushing Bride and I would have to say not one of my favourite colours I do like pink but I find this one a little wishy washy for my liking. But I did manage to come up with a card that I was very pleased with. (if I do say so myself) 


I thought it was time to bring out the Daisy punches again so that what I did. I started my creation using a Blushing Bride card base and then added a Very Vanilla layer that I Embossed using the Subtle 3D Embossing folder. I used Early Espresso that I cut into strips to make a lattice look over the Very Vanilla. 
I then stamped the Large and Small Daisy 4 times each 2 in Blushing Bride and 2 in Very Vanilla using the Blushing Bride Ink I then punched them out this made up one flower. I then punched out 2 more of the small daisies in Crushed Curry and cut the down I then cut each petal in half to fringe them and glued them to the middle of the flowers. Adding the large gilded gems to the centres of the flowers. 
These are very full flowers as you can see. I then used the Celebrate Sunflowers dies to make up the leaves and other Fernery on the lattice work. To Finish off the front of the card,  I added a Happy Birthday from the Timeless Tulip stamp set and punched it out along with another blank in Blushing Bride using the Classic Label Punch and add the small Butterflies from the Butterfly Gala bundle.

Once again I have kept the insert very plain  by stamping only a sentiment and 2 daisies from the Daisy Lane stamp set I layered the Very Vanilla onto Early Espresso before attaching it to the inside of the card. I think this card would need to be place in a box as it's very bulky. All the items used in this project can be found in the 2020-2021 Annual Catalogue, if you would like to purchase any or all these items please give me a call, email or PM, alternatively you can order online and place me name (Diane Furniss) in as your demonstrator..... Thank you.
