Social Stamping - Rainbows






Hi there, & thanks for joining me today for another week of Social Stamping this week we are using the theme of Rainbows, as they have become the symbol of connectedness during our current time. 

To make my rainbow, I used the Layering Circle Framelits, I placed them on some Whisper white cardstock make individual arches, & then I coloured each one with a Stampin'Blend. I will admit, I had to google the correct colours for a rainbow ;)

with the rainbow theme, & the current "bear hunts" I really wanted to use a bear on my card, but I couldn't find a current bear stamp, so the bunny was my next best option. Once I had the rainbow & the bunny, it just became an easter card, & I needed some eggs for the end of my rainbow, but I didn't have any, so I used the centre oval from Petal Labels Dies (149635)
Happy Easter!

Anyway, dont forget to check out the others on this great blog hop.

IDEAS Blog Hop – April Favourites




Hello everyone! 

We are back again with our blog hop to share the inspiring projects in our monthly IDEAS tutorial bundle. 
IDEAS stands for International Demos Exciting Artistic Stampin'
& the participants are located all around the world! 
This month’s Theme is "Our Favourites" from the current "Mini Catalogue"
I have way too many Favourites in this Catalogue so I have chosen a very versatile bundle “Peaceful Moments
”. 
I thought in this crazy time, this was a good set to use, its pretty, & for most of us, (who are hopefully finding extra time to spend with our families), we will have some moments to look back on with joy.
For those of you who are struggling, I'm so sorry, my heart goes out to you.



I decided on my 3d item as I was setting up my desk to work from home, & I pulled one of the many post it note holders I have made to put on my desk. Hopefully you will have a use for it too..



In this blog hop, we will each share a peek of our personal project & the full set of instructions can be found in the current tutorial bundle.
Each tutorial features at least one card and one project, some include multiples. Would you like a copy of the instructions for these projects to use for your personal use, or even to use in your classes? Contact me to request this bundle.  The bundle is free with a $50 order or $11 to purchase.  It is also free to members of my team.
Once you have received the tutorials, please remember not to share or distribute the printed or electronic copies of these bundles. We have worked hard to provide these exclusive projects for your use. If you know someone that would like to purchase the bundle, please direct them to me to obtain their copy.
Thanks for your support.


I would love to read any comments you have, so please feel free to leave me a comment before you hop on over to Yolanda’s Blog to see a preview of her project! 



Thanks for popping in, I'll see you next time

If you are in Australia, & you would like to place an order between $50 & $250, you can go to my website www.Odette.Stampinup.net & use the hostess code JQWSCBNC (you will use that in the shopping bag) & I will email you the PDF tutorial package direct to you.

Social Stamping - Thank you!

Thank You for joining us on this Social Stamping Blog Hop!


I really thought when I was working from home, I would have so much more time, but I was so run down, I could not wake up, & have been trying to let myself recover, so I have not had any extra time at all.

but I really wanted to play with this new set, so when Kelly offered to run a "thank you" Social Stamping blog hop, I needed to join her. Thanks Kelly!


Ornate Garden is an early release set, from our next annual catalogue, & when I first saw it, the papers stood out as something I wasn't sure about. Then I had a closer look, & I loved both sets of dies, & I needed the font stamp set, so I figured I would just get the entire suite.

When it arrived, the main side of the papers still didn't jump out at me, I didnt dislike them, but they are very different to what I would normally use.

However.... there were 4 pages that I was INSTANTLY in love with.
they all had gold foil imaging, & so I knew I needed to start with them



But then I needed to choose from all the amazing dies that the set came with, all these edges, how does one choose?


Well I decided that since the paper was so elegant, all it needed was simple, & this was the result. 



but then I decided I actually DID like the other side, & changed it up a bit for a more colourful version, & I quite liked that too!


Anyway, dont forget to check out the others on this great blog hop.

Social Stamping, Hello!

Hello!

I hope you are coping with the current life  changing events in our world, & I hope crafting is keeping you sane...

A group of Stamping Friends have all put together a blog post, for a Social Stamping Blog Hop, 

I have decided I wanted to play with one of the techniques I prepared for my recent technique camps, which used our Pigment Sprinkles (149663)
With this technique, the Sprinkles give both a watercolour effect AND a sprinkle effect to the side, & you achieve this by sprinkling the sprinkles onto the image only, but "spritzing" the image on an angle, so the sprinkles land on the dry side of the card.

I thought I wanted to use a stamp set from the current mini, so I started with Positive Thoughts (151490) but the stamp didn't quite give me the effects I wanted.
You can certainly see the "sprinkles" but I wasn't excited by the watercolour on these flowers.



Next I tried using Honey Bee (151527) with a completely different layout, but again, the flowers weren't really giving me the effect I wanted.






Finally I thought you could have a sneak peak of a new set called Ornate Style, & finally I got the effect I wanted, but the photo doesn't do it justice!


I have use the Granny Apple Green & Gorgeous Grape Pigment sprinkles, & I just LOVE it!



After I had finished, I used some wipes to clean my hands, & my hands looked clean. Then I used some hand sanitizer... Lets just say, I can confirm, I do cover my hands really well with sanitizer, because I suddenly looked like I had pink & purple gloves.

To purchase your own Pigment Sprinkles (149663) you can go to www.Odette.StampinUp.net

You can check out the main page for the Social Stamping Blog hop here
but for now, you can check out Rebecca Scurr  blog here
