Global Design Project #081 Colour challenge - Remarkable You Card & Matching Gift Bag

Tuesday, April 4, 2017 Somerset, UK



Here is a quick card from me today which I am entering into this weeks Global Design Project #081 Colour Challenge using the colours below.


This was a set I made at a craft day I held on Sunday. You may have seen the gift bag before as I designed this first and then added a matching card at a later date.


I have a YouTube video for the bag which is completely my own design, I would love for you to check this out as it's my first YouTube tutorial.


If you would like to order any of the products I have used, please let me know!

Global Design Project #081 Colour challenge - Remarkable You Card & Matching Gift Bag

International Project Highlights Visual Blog Hop and sketch challenge entry into #GDP058

Wednesday, October 19, 2016


Welcome to our International Project Highlights using current Stampin' Up!® Products. We have all created a gallery of projects for you to be inspired by! We would love it if you could visit every one of our blogs and see more photos of our projects. If you scroll down to the end of this blog post, you can see the gallery of all of our projects. This will be shown on every blog that you click on.


My name is Kim and I live in Somerset in the UK and I have made this birthday card using a sketch by Teneale Williams.

I've used the Blooms and Bliss designer series paper and the lillies from the Remarkable You stamp set.


I have stamped Happy Birthday in Sweet Sugarplum ink using the Stylized Birthday stamp for the inside of the card and also added an edge of torn designer series paper to the top and bottom of the Whisper White layer.


For the front of the card I have added a layer of designer series paper to fit the entire front of the card. I usually leave a border but I really like how this has come out. I then added a small layer of Sweet Sugarplum cardstock before overlapping a layer of Vellum cardstock.

Next I stamped the lillies image onto Whisper White cardstock twice. I used Stampin' Write markers to colour in the stamp - Sweet Sugarplum for the outline of the flower and Old Olive for the stem.

I cut out the flowers using my Paper Snips (I am really not a fan of fussy cutting but let me tell you, these were a dream to cut out!) I adhered one set of flowers straight onto the vellum and then popped up the second set directly over the top using Stampin' Dimensionals. This really has added some fabulous dimension to the flowers and I am really pleased with this effect.

To finish the card I stamped the sentiment Happy Birthday in Basic Gray using a stamp from the Sunshine Sayings stamp set. I cut around the sentiment and used glue dots to adhere it over the top of the stems.


I've been a bit cheeky and I have also entered this card into the Global Design Project sketch challenge #GDP058 - it's Teneale's last sketch and this makes me really sad. I love Teneale's sketches but I am sure we'll be challenged with some more fabulous sketches by another talented designer in the weeks to come. I've been 'suffering' with crafters block for a few weeks but this sketch really helped me make this card for you today - thanks Teneale! Here is the wonderful sketch
You can order everything I've used to make my card from my online shop today. Until the end of the month you can order 3 packs of selected DSP and get one pack 3!

Pinkies Stampin' Up! 2015-16 Annual Catalogue Blog Hop! feat. Remarkable You & Cottage Greetings Stamp Sets

Saturday, June 20, 2015


Thank you for joining us on another Pinkies Blog Hop! We're showcasing lots of gorgeous projects using products from the new Stampin' Up!® Annual Catalogue. Simply use the buttons at the end of each post to keep hopping!

If you have arrived from Michelle's blog, welcome! Isn't her project fabulous!

On the day the new Stampin' Up! annual catalogue launched, demonstrators and customers from across the world excitedly placed their orders. I could see on facebook lots of Pinkies receiving their orders last week and I was green eyed with envy. I finally got my delivery on Friday and had lots of fun opening all the products (making sure the evidence was hidden before my husband got home).

I spent all of Sunday afternoon crafting and here is the first of several projects that I have made using new stamp sets and designer series paper. 


I made these cards by stamping the beautiful images from the new Remarkable You stamp set onto Vellum cardstock using Black Staz On ink and then added sentiments from the new Cottage Greetings stamp set. I love the font in this set and will definitely be using these sentiments a lot!


When I am crafting, I really try to be as original as I can be and I also try and make projects that are outside of my comfort zone. This is how I came about this idea of adhering Vellum cardstock over a layer of Designer Series Paper and stamping onto the Vellum. Its been done before but this is my spin on it.

This designer series paper is just fabulous and is called Timeless Elegance and I can't wait to use the other patterns included in this pack. I have been guilty in the past of saving beautiful paper but this year I have decided that it needs to be used so that it can be enjoyed by others.

To finish off the front of the card, I decided to add a small strip of glimmer paper to the bottom of the Vellum cardstock. I think it adds a bit of glamour without overpowering the simple design.


I always like to stamp the inside of cards I make so I cut a piece of Whisper White cardstock and stamped the same image and sentiment that I used on the front on the card. I love this look and might now attempt a black and white version and perhaps a version with some subtle water colouring now I have my new watercolour pens!



I really hope you have enjoyed my project today. Click here to subscribe to my blog so you see the other projects I make using products from the new Stampin' Up! annual catalogue.
