The last few weeks have been so busy, I've only just got round to sharing this project with you that coordinates with my Explosion Box that I shared 3 weeks ago.
The True Love DSP may be out of stock in Europe, however, here is an an idea for those of you that have this patterned paper in your stash.
This simple card has been created using left over pieces of DSP coordinates with the Explosion Box.
Come and take a look at what myself and Stampin' Up! demonstrators from all over the world have been creating. We hope you find lots of inspiration here today for your papercraft projects.
Using up my scraps of the retiring True Love DSP I created this monochrome card for my husband.
Welcome to the Ink.Stamp.Share Showcase Blog Hop!
There is no theme today - although you'll find we have all used products from the Stampin' Up! Annual catalogue and Mini catalogue.
At a #PinkiesTeam event a few months ago the lovely Sylvia Lawrence taught us how to make a 3D project - an explosion box! It was my first time creating one of these although I've admired explosion boxes for years. Thank you for the clear instructions Sylvia, I loved your version!

Better late then never - here are my True Love DSP fancy fold cards! You'll find the measurements and tutorial towards the end of this post.
I made these cards about 2 months ago but I held off sharing them as I wanted to film a tutorial and knew I had some time off work so I filmed the tutorial over the Easter weekend, more than a month ago! I can't believe it's taken me this long to get the tutorial edited and ready to share.
❤ This is a photo of my grandma and I ❤
This photo may have been taken over 20 years ago but I adore it and will treasure it forever. It triggers memories of weekend visits from our grandparents. Then I remember trips to their house in Ollerton, which bring even greater memories. It was always fun to sleep over at their house. I remember playing in the garden, Grandma's legendary buffets and Grandads jokes! Such good times!
I created these two sympathy cards to send to my aunties Janet and Carol and their families. I will be seeing them today as we are travelling to Nottingham for Grandmas funeral.
With the restrictions in place due to coronavirus, my Dad is in Trinidad and unable to get back to the UK for the funeral. This breaks my heart but thank goodness for modern technology as he is able to join via video link.
Today will be bittersweet as it will be the first time I've seen my brother in over a year and the first time in several years since I have seen my aunties, uncles, cousins and extended family.
It will be so difficult not being able to give my family a hug but I am thankful that we can be together, as the maximum limit to gather for the funeral is 30 people.
Black and white cards are often created by papercrafters to send condolences. The True Love DSP was the perfect choice for this sombre occasion.
I patiently fussy cut the flowers from the DSP and adhered them to a white background. A simple sentiment from the Itty Bitty Greetings stamp set is all that was needed.
It's been a few months since I last took part in Kylie Bertucci's International Blog Highlights so I am excited to be taking part again!
What great timing too, with the theme as 'thank you' I thought it would be perfect to enter these colourful thank you cards that I created for anyone who placed an order with me in March.

We are back again with the Stampin' for Christmas blog hop, bringing you ideas for your Christmas papercraft projects, once a month for the rest of this year!
It's 267 days until Christmas however, if you are a planner or simply love creating Christmas cards like I do, there is absolutely nothing wrong with crafting for Christmas all year round.
You'll find inspiration here today from papercrafters and demonstrators with a common love for all things Stampin' Up!
If you have arrived from Laura's blog or you are a regular subscriber, I am so happy to welcome you to my blog!
If you have been following the Stampin' for Christmas hop this year, you may remember that I am a little short on current Stampin' Up! Christmas products in my stash. So I've been mixing it up, typically using a Christmas stamp set and a Christmas die set with current, non Christmassy DSP.
The True Love DSP is one of my favourites at the moment and I just had to team it up with Blushing Bride.
I love a black, pink and white colour combo ❤
The Snow Globe Scenes dies are one of my favourite Christmas die sets EVER. They are retiring on 3rd May 2021 so if you want them, you'd better be quick! I am so pleased I got to showcase them one last time.
I die cut the polar bears from this die set from Black Glitter Paper (note: this is not available to purchase right now, however, it will be returning in the next mini catalogue in July 2021).
I used my Blending Brushes to add some colour behind the polar bears. These brushes are a wonderful tool and an absolute must have for any papercrafter.
The sentiment is from the Itty Bitty Christmas stamp set, also retiring on 3rd May. It has been heat embossed in black (note: Black embossing powder will be making a return in the annual catalogue on 4th May 2021)
Just a quick post from me today as I just had to share this card I created with the Stampin' Up! A Touch of Ink stamp set!
You can select this stamp set for free with a qualifying order of £90 plus P&P - but be quick, Sale-a-Bration ends on 28th February 2021.
This stamp set is perfect for #simplestamping!
You can stamp the outline of these images and either colour them in by hand (using Stampin' Blends or Watercolour Pencils) or, you can use the additional stamp that goes alongside the outline, to quickly add colour to the background
Naturally I chose this second option, it was so easy but I also quite liked the effect - where the colour doesn't stay within the lines!
I stamped the outline images in black Memento ink and then to add some subtle colour, I used Pool Party for the bird, So Saffron for the Flowers and Soft Sea Foam for the leaves.
I have used the fabulous True Love DSP for the striped patterned paper background. The stamped images look great against this, while adding additional interest.
For the sentiment, I stamped 'Best Wishes' in Versamark ink onto Basic Black cardstock and heat embossed it in white. This has been die cut with the Stitched So Sweetly dies.
