Ink it! Stamp it! Design Team Blog Hop | Theme: 2020 Mini and Sale-A-Bration Catalogues


Welcome to the Ink it! Stamp it! Design Team Blog Hop. This month we will be sharing projects inspired by the new 2020 Mini and Sale-A-Bration Catalogues. The full line up below will guide you through all the projects.

I have chosen to #loveitchopit some of the gorgeous Designer Series Paper available in the 2020 Mini Catalogue and teamed it with some favourites from the 2019-20 Annual Catalogue.

The sheet used in my card today comes from the Best Dressed 6x6 Designer Series Paper (151319), available from 3rd January 2020 in the 2020 Mini Catalogue.



My card layout was inspired by the latest Sunday Stamps #SSC220 Keep It Open Sketch Challenge



***********************




A super simple yet pretty card, made using only a few products.

The card base is Lovely Lipstick and I cut a panel from my sheet of DSP and layered some Petal Pink cardstock underneath prior to adhering it to my card front.

My sentiment comes from the Abstract Impressions Stamp Set and is stamped in Old Olive ink on some Whisper White cardstock which was cut out using the label from the Frosted Bouquet dies.

Using some Old Olive, Petal Pink and Lovely Lipstick cardstock, I die cut some leaves and flower buds stems using dies also from the Frosted Bouquet dies. These were adhered to my card front, prior to attaching the sentiment panel with some Mini Stampin' Dimensionals.

Notes of Kindness | All Inclusive Card Kit

Do you need a few Thank You / Birthday / Encouragement / Any Occasions cards for your stash or for a specific event/project, but don't know where or how to start in creating them from scratch......

Or perhaps you don't have all the "bits" you need.....

Or are you in a bit of a creative mojo slump and need to just make something without having to design it yourself......

If this sounds like you, then you should consider trying out one of the Stampin' Up! all-inclusive card kits.

These kits include everything you'll need to create 20 cards. The only extra things you'll need are scissors for any ribbon/twine and your favourite adhesive.


********************

Late last year I showed you the pretty Lots of Happy Card Kit (click here to checkout my post), which I am excited to say is still available to purchase as it carried over to the 2019-20 Annual catalogue - YAY!

Today I would like to show you the Notes Of Kindness Card Kit. This kit includes everything you'll need to make a total of 20 cards - 5 each of 4 different designs. Plus you get a pretty kraft storage or giftable box that it all comes in.




The cards in this kit are all Note Card sized (so a little smaller than a standard A6 card) - the folded card size is 8.9cm x 12.7 cm (3.5" x 5").





Here is what you'll get in the box:



Here are the contents opened up and spread out:







The kit includes an instruction booklet showing what components to use on each card and how to put each one together.

********************

Here are the stunning cards you'll end up with once you have put the kit together. You get 5 each of 4 different designs.








Each card comes with a stunning envelope decorated on the inside/flap.

Bird Ballad Designer Series Paper | For You Cards

Hi and thanks for visiting, today I am CASEing myself :)
(CASE = Copy And Selectively Edit)

I made the below set of Birthday cards using Bird Ballad DSP recently for our Aussies Who Love Stampin' Up! #AWLSU041 Tic-Tac-Toe challenge. (Click here to view these cards)


I really liked the layout and design of these cards so I decided to have another go and see if I could come up with something a little different, using the same layout and came up with these. What do you think?


My new set of cards are "For You" Any Occasions cards and use a Pool Party, Petal Pink/Powder Pink and Whisper White colour combination. I have again used the Bird Ballad Designer Series Paper.

I followed the same steps as my previous cards (click here to view my previous post), however this time I have used some of my retired ribbon stash and placed some Pool Party & Powder Pink Shimmer Ribbon across my card front - horizontally on one card and vertically on the other.

The sentiment (which comes from the Let It Ride stamp set) is stamped in Pool Party ink on a scrap of Whisper White cardstock which was cut out using a small Layering Circle die and adhered to my card front using some Stampin' Dimensionals.


As with my previous cards, you get to enjoy both sides of the DSP and for this sheet there is this pretty bird design on the inside (as seen above).




Thanks so much for your support and for visiting me today :)
