Flourishing Phrases - Fancy Friday Blog Hop

Welcome to the Fancy Friday Blog Hop!! We're a group of past and present Artisan award winners who love to bring you inspiration each month. This September we've used the boho bedroom below and a wild colour combination to get those creative juices flowing. Use a few colours or use them all - we'd love to see what YOU make!

I've used Flourishing Phrases and the coordinating Flourish Thinlits dies to make this card. I love all the textures at play in this photo so I used Very Vanilla baker's twine to resemble the macrame-type hangings and cut a fine fringe by the sentiment to act like tassels. Such fun! For an easy watercolour look, I stamped the flowers in Mango Melody and Powder Pink and spritzed with water. Once dry, I flicked on some specs with my Pacific Point marker.

Supplies Used:
Stamps: Flourishing Phrases
Inks: Mango Melody, Powder Pink, Pacific Point, Memento Tuxedo Black
Papers: Smoky Slate, Watercolour Paper, Whisper White
Tools/Accessories: Big Shot, Flourish Thinlits Dies, Very Vanilla Solid Baker's Twine, Chicken Wire Elements, Spritzer

Beautiful Promenade - Stampin' Up! Artisan Blog Hop

Oh I'm so excited to show you my Beautiful Promenade HIS and HERS cards this month on the Stampin' Up! Artisan blog hop. When I saw this set and looked at ways of creating with it in unexpected ways, industrial, geometric and masculine were what I had in mind. I cut out a the large geometric shape from the Beautiful Layers thinlits on some scrap Shimmery White card stock just to see what it was like and decided to use it exactly as it was. Partial and imperfect. From there the more feminine version was born. Taking colour cues from industrial interior design trends, I mixed Petal Pink and Mossy Meadow. What do you think?

Supplies Used:

Stamps: Beautiful Promenade

Inks: Mango Melody, Smoky Slate, Petal Pink, Mossy Meadow, Versamark

Papers: Smoky Slate, Mango Melody, Shimmery White, Petal Promenade Designer Series Paper, Basic Black, Whisper White

Tools/Accessories: Linen Thread, Silver Metallic Thread, Petal Pink Rhinestone Gems

Dashing Along Host Promo - Stampin' Up! Artisan Blog Hop

Today the Artisan Team are sharing an array of ideas with the Dashing Along Designer series paper. These papers have a gorgeous traditional Christmas feel to them and you can get them FREE with a qualifying order throughout September (NZD$450 in party or individual sales). They coordinate so beautifully with the Dashing Deer bundle in the Holiday Catalogue so here goes!

I've designed these simple cards with multiples in mind. They're perfect for a Christmas card making session with friends as we start prep for the festive season (yes, I said it)! I made 20 of these in a flash, with the help of my 9 and 7 year olds. The Stamparatus was perfect for placing the sentiment every.single.time. Ooo and I love the stripes from the Dashing Along papers on the green card - candy cane anyone?!

Stamps: Dashing Deer

Inks: Mint Macaron, Smoky Slate, Garden Green, Cherry Cobbler marker, Momento Tuxedo Black

Papers: Whisper White, Dashing Along Designer Series Paper, Shimmery White
