ILWS Summer Mini Blog Hop


Hi Folks,

Welcome to the ILWS Summer Blog Hop!


Today sees the launch of the new Stampin' Up! mini catalogue and to celebrate this and to get our cogs working the lovely Alison (this will take you to the first of 20 blogs, I am in the second group of 20) has organised a blog hop, this will be the second blog hop I have taken part in and I love being able to have a nose at all the different project the other peeps have come up with.

If things are going to plan you will have arrived from Kim's page, if not feel free to go and have a look.  It has been a busy few weeks so if you have taken part in the ILWS Summer Mini Swap I'll apologise now as you will recognise the projects I'm showing.

I have done two cards with similar designs but different colours.  I find it amazing how one thing can look so different when the colour is changed.

In both cards I have used the Sizzix Framelits and the Apothecary Art stamp set.  The stamps fit just perfectly with the dies. I have then coloured in using the inks and blender pen.


The above card is done in Basic Black and Melon Mambo. I used the Chantilly crochet and pleated it myself. Then just added the sentiment, plus 3 pearls.


This card was done using Chocolate Chip and Pumpkin Pie.  I used Peach Parfait Stitched-poly ribbon as a banner. Stamped and punch out the sentiment again with the word window. Put the pearls on the banner as if they are holding it in place. I also used the Baroque border wheel and versamark ink to run across the card, its a little hard to see in the photo!

Hope you have enjoyed looking at my creations.  The next stop on the blog hop is Sally, hope you have fun looking on her blog.

Mini Catalogue Blog Hop

Morning folks,

Today sees the launch of the new mini catalogue and to celebrate a group of us crafty ladies decided to use it as an excuse to be creative, as if we need one!!

Hopefully you have arrived from the lovely Leanne's blog. I have made a little gift box using the candy wrapper Sizzix die.  It would make a great place setting and gift in one. I would like to apologise for the naff photos but the weather yesterday didn't really allow for good photo opportunities.



All supplies Stampin' Up!, unless stated.

Paper: Whisper White, Always Artichoke, Concord Crush DSP

Ink: Concord Crush, Always Artichoke, Elegant Eggplant

Stamps: New mini catalogue Perfect Postage and You're a Gem.

Tools: Sizzix Candy Wrapper Die, Postage Stamp Punch


The next project was a card, I'm thinking I might do this at my next class. I like it cause you can change the sentiment to make a whole different card.





Again not great photos but hopefully you get as excited as I did over the red glimmer card.  The glitter doesn't come off which is a bonus, especially if you need to go out after you've been crafting!

Paper: Cherry Cobbler, Very Vanilla, Concord Crush DSP, New mini catalogue Red Glimmer paper

Ink: Real Red, Concord Crush

Stamps: new mini catalogue Perfect Postage, Sweetheart

Tools: new mini catalogue Postage Punch, Scallop Edge Border Punch, Large Oval Punch

Hope you have enjoyed stopping by on the blog hop and the next stop is Jayne's blog.

Please come by soon to see what I get up to next with the new catalogue goodies.
