Tuesday Inspiration: Waves of the Ocean Collection

Waves of Inspiration is a great new bundle from the new catalogue and with just over two weeks left to purchase the additional items I thought it was time to share some inspirstion with you.

These designs from the Stampin’ Up! concept artists show great us of the Wve dies mixed with some of the designer paper.

These two card use the wave dies more as a decorative background element, I really love the blue one.

These final two cards show how well the designer paper works with the blue foil to create some dramatic backgrounds.

Hope you’ve found a little inspiration from this post, links to all products can be found below and remember the designer paper, foil and rhinestones are only available until May 2nd.

Floral Friday: Flowing Flowers

For today’s Floral Friday I’m sharing two very simple cards made with the Flowing Flowers stamp set, which has beautiful big flower images perfect for covering your whole card.

This first card uses Highland Heather and Soft Succulent inkpads to stamp the flowers with.

The second one was done with Stampin’ Markers brushed on the stamps and gives you a much bolder image. Which do you prefer?

The sentiments for both cards were stamped on diecuts from the Tasteful Labels Dies which have now unfortunately sold out. For an alternative you could use the labels in the Potted Succulents or Seasonal Labels Dies. In the new catalogue there is also a die set called All That which would also work.

Three Cards with the All Togther Designer Paper

Here are three ideas for you using the All Together Designer Paper all using the pattern with the row of hands.

For this first card I used most of the new Stampin’ Blends skin tone colours to colour the hands and then added the Here For You die onto some vellum just to help it stand out from the background of hands.

This second card uses the same layout but I’ve swapped the skin tones for a rainbow of hands in Real Red, Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green, Balmy Blue Night of Navy and Blackberry Bliss.

My third card was a happy accident as when I turned the rainbow hands sheet over to adhered to the Basic Black base I loved what I found…so made that into a card too!

This card is my favourite and think it shows the more you create the more the creative ideas flow.

There are plenty of other great designs in the All Togther Designer Paper which is fast becoming one of my favourites to reach for.

Tuesday Inspiration: All Togther Collection

The All Togther Collection launched in February and saw the addition of 10 new skin tone Stampin’ Blends along with the Here Togther Bundle and some fabulolous black and white designer paper All Togther.

I’m only just getting round to working with these products but I’m loving them and think there a great addition to any craft collection, the new Blends especially.

This card shows my favourite die in the collection and two of the new skin tone colours. I love this sentiment too as I think we could all use a little more love in our lives right now.

Stampin’ Up! Concept Art

This card is a stepped up version of my card above, I love how Stampin’ Up1 have created the frame out of the All Togther DSP and coloured the stripes with each of the new Blends tones.

Stampin’ Up! Concept Art

This little card shows the other stamped image in the set, I love how well the hands have been coloured and shaded.

These two projects show the dies in use, I love the banner created here with the hearts designer paper.

These two show more images from the designer paper pack.

Hope you found some inspiration from these projects and pull the products out and have a play.

The new Stampin’ Blends will still be available in the new 2022 – 23 Annual Catalogue starting on May 3rd. The other products in these collection are only available until May 2nd or until they sell out.

Thanks for visiting.
