Stampin Up High Tide Stamp Set

Hi there & welcome to my Merry Monday blog.
Thanks for stopping by my little corner of the websphere!
Todays post is a CASE of the High Tide stamp set which is featured on page 10 of the Occasions Catalogue.

This is a "Two Step" set which contains 16 Photopolymer stamps. I generally shy away from two step stamping but for this set, it really does make the light house stand out. I am now a convert to the "two step" method.

I love the sentiments in this set, they are really beautiful.

This set would make a wonderful addition to your stamp collection if you like the photographic look of a stamp set.

I hope you enjoyed this project.

Stampin Up is right in the middle of SALE-A-BRATION, my favourite time of the year.
What is Sale-A-Bration ??
Well, when you purchase ANY STAMPIN UP ITEMS from the Occasions or Annual Catalogues over AUD$90 from 4 January to 31 March you can select a FREE product from the Sale-A-Bration catalogue.

I hope you enjoyed this project.

If you need any Stampin UP supplies and you don't have a Demonstrator in Australia, I would be happy to help.
You can contact me via my Stampin UP website, or email me stampingmerry@gmail.com

Thanks for stopping by and Merry Stamping

Cupcakes and Carousels Embellishment Kit

Hi there & welcome to my "Fridays in February" blog.

Thank you for stopping by.

Todays post features the Cupcakes and Carousels Embellishment Kit featured on pages 8 and 9 of the Occasions Catalogue.

CUPCAKES AND CAROUSELS EMBELLISHMENT KIT

It is a really lovely kit which includes Accents and ribbon to add to any of your projects.
Here are a few of the ones I have made.... and yes I totally used the images in the Occasions Catalogue for my inspiration.

This first project is a small gift bag made using the Carried Away Designer Series Paper which you can earn for FREE with a qualifying order during SALE-A-BRATION.

I used the Cupcakes and Carousels Designer Series paper to make this quick and easy card.

I used the Gift Box Punch Board to make these gift boxes.

Each box used 1 sheet of the 6x6 Cupcakes and Carousels Designer Series paper

The beauty of this kit is that you can use the accents for cards or to add some additional bling to a gift packaging. You could even just stamp the labels, add some of the accents and there is a gift tag ready to go.

I hope you enjoyed these projects.

If you are interested in Stampin Up supplies, now is a great time to purchase because its Sale-A-Bration time until 31 March 2017. For every $90AUD you spend between now and 31 March 2017, you qualify for a FREE Sale-A-Bration product . Learn more about this great promotion by clicking HERE

Stampin Up SALE-A-BRATION Second Release products

Hi there & welcome to my Merry Monday blog.

Thanks for stopping by. I am sharing a quick post today to show the second release of FREE Sale-A-Bration products which you can earn for FREE with a qualifying order during Sale-A-Bration.

There are 3 products which will be available from 21 February until 31 March.
There are 2 stamp sets and one pack of 6x6 glimmer paper.... oh my the glimmer paper is gorgeous.

The cards below feature the glimmer paper (I used the Sweet Sugarplum). The photo does not really do justice to this paper as it really does sparkle. If you like to add some sparkle to your projects, this glimmer paper really does add that extra hint of sparkle.

The second card features the Reverse Words stamp set. Its a lovely 2 set rubber stamp set that gives you an instant watercolour wash look. So pretty.

These two cards feature the Make a Medallion photopolymer stamp set and if you like to layer and get really inky and creative then this is the set for you.

That's it for today. I hope you enjoyed these ideas.

Sale-A-Bration Any Occasion and Tasty Treats Stampin Up

Hi there & welcome to my "Fridays in February" blog.

Thank you for stopping by. Todays post features two of the stamp sets that you can earn for FREE duing SALE-A-BRATION, when you spend $90AUD or more until 31 March 2017.

I used the Any Occasion and Tasty Trucks stamp sets to make these note cards.

I also made a set of envelopes.

The envelopes are made using another FREE sale-a-bration product, the Carried Away Designer Series Paper.

I also used the Tasty Trucks set and coloured using the Watercolour pencils and Stampin Write Markers.

WATERCOLOUR PENCILS

I could colour all day long if I had the time!! Its very addictive....

I just fussy cut the truck and attached it to a small box.

The little box is made using a piece of Bermuda Bay cardstock. I used the envelope punch board to make this, punch and score at 2 1/4 inch and 3 inch.
