World Card Making Day Stampin'! Up! Blog Hop feat. Jar of Love Stamp Set
Friday, September 30, 2016 Somerset, UK
It's so great to join together with so many demonstrators from all over the world to celebrate this crafty event, we have lots of amazing inspiration for you today and I hope you enjoy looking at our projects!
My name is Kim Price and I live in Somerset in the UK. You are currently visiting my blog Handmade by Kim. There is a list at the end of this post which will help you to move along from blog to blog so you see all 20 amazing projects.
I wonder how many different countries you will be visiting today?
My project today features the Jar of Love Photopolymer Stamp Set and the Everyday Jars Framelit Dies.
There are 37 stamps and 17 dies between these two sets - what a bargain! Did you know you can buy both of these sets as a bundle and save 10%!
To make my card, I have used the colour Pool Party for the card base and have chosen the same colour paper from the Subtles Designer Series Paper to coordinate.
I stamped the image of the jar in Crumb Cake ink onto Whisper White cardstock and used the matching framelit to die cut it using my Big Shot machine.
Next I stamped some stems onto the jar using Mint Macaron ink and then lightly sponged the lower half of the jar with Pool Party ink to look like water.
I then wrapped some Linen Thread around the neck of the jar and tied a small bow before fixing the jar to the card using Stampin' Dimensionals.
Next I did some 2-step stamping and stamped the flowers in 3 different colours using 2 shades that complimented each other - Peach (Calypso Coral ink and Flirty Flamingo ink), Yellow (So Saffron ink and Crushed Curry ink) and Pink (Blushing Bride ink and Sweet Sugarplum ink). I attached Stampin' Dimensionals to the back of each individual flower and arranged them at the top of the jar.
To complete the card I added the sentiment Happy Birthday using a stamp from the Balloon Builders stamp set that fit perfectly into the smallest die from Tags & Labels Framelit Dies.

Pinkies Blog Hop - Sparkling Watercolor Wings Butterfly card using Stampin' Up! products on World Card Making Day 2015
Saturday, October 3, 2015
Welcome to another Pinkies Blog Hop! As it's World Card Making Day today, we hope everyone will get some time to craft, and we've created some lovely projects to help inspire you to create your own beautiful card. Simply use the buttons at the end of each post to keep hopping!
If you have arrived from Clare's blog, welcome! I am so happy to be sharing my Sparkling Watercolor Wings Butterfly card that I've created for you.
I made a similar card a few weeks ago but I decided to step up the design by adding more details to the background and adding some much needed sparkle.
To make the background I used the Gorgeous Grunge stamp set. I started by stamping the splatter effect using Elegant Eggplant, Perfect Plum & Wisteria Wonder ink. Using the same stamps I then used Versa Mark ink to stamp more splatter effects.
Next I sprinkled Heat & Stick powder over the Versa Mark ink, tapped off the excess, then used the Heat Tool to make the powder tacky. I then sprinkled Silver Stampin' Glitter over the spots (again, tapping off the excess) and used the Heat Tool to set the glitter in place.
You can buy this stamp set as part of a bundle including the Bold Butterflies Framelit Dies. When you buy a bundle you save 15% of the combined price.
For this project I used the both the Bold Butterfly Framelits Dies and Butterflies Thinlit Dies to die cut the small and large butterflies. It was so simple and quick and by using these dies, its gives my finished card a more professional look.
For the inside of the card I used the the stamp set included within the Watercolor Wishes kit. I stamped the sentiment Happiest Birthday Wishes using Elegant Eggplant ink. I chose this stamp as I love the font but you can use any stamp set and sentiment of your choice.
Initially I couldn't decide whether to use Heat & Stick Powder & Stampin' Glitter or just Stampin' Emboss Powder. This version has been made using Island Indigo, Pool Party & Soft Sky ink and Gold Stampin' Emboss Powder. The effect is not as glittery as my featured project but still has a beautiful shine when you catch it in the light.
I hope you enjoyed looking at my projects today, please leave a comment to let me know you stopped by and click here to subscribe for craft project ideas and inspiration 3 times a week on Mondays, Wednesdays & Saturdays.
