IDEAS BLOG HOP - Fancy Flora - It's So Suite of You!

Hi there

I'm back with the IDEAS (International Demos Exciting Artistic Stampin') team this month to share more fabulous projects. We are a group of international demonstrators who create a Tutorial Bundle each month to give you, our customers and readers a heap of inspiration for your crafting.

If you've come from looking at Sara's sweet projects, then welcome!  If you're visiting me, I appreciate you stopping by today!  You can continue your journey to see the other inspiring creations from the IDEAS Team by clicking on the NEXT button at the bottom of the post. 

This month we are showcasing the wonderful coordination in a suite of products. A suite brings together a group of coordinating products to provide everything you need to create lovely projects. To make it super easy, you can order all the products with a single item number!

We have a super huge 90-page bundle this month with 15 tutorials using suites from the 2022-23 Annual Catalogue and 2023 January-April Mini Catalogue. Every tutorial includes at least 2 projects with lots of 3D projects including gift packaging, treat packaging, fancy fold cards and home décor.

I’ve chosen the Fancy Flora Suite for my projects and created a generously-sized gift bag and coordinating gate-fold card. The bag (excluding the handle) measures 4 5/8” x 7 1/4” x 1 1/2” (11.8cm x 18.4cm x 3.8cm) and would be perfect for a scarf, body products, treats, full sized cards and envelopes and so much more. The coordinating gate-fold card would also be perfect for engagement and wedding occasions.  You can see more photos by clicking on the Etsy link below.

IDEAS Blog Hop - Loving Sale-a-bration!

Hi there

I'm back with the IDEAS (International Demos Exciting Artistic Stampin') team this month to share more fabulous projects. We are a group of international demonstrators who create a Tutorial Bundle each month to give you, our customers and readers a heap of inspiration for your crafting.

If you've come from looking at Simone's lovely project, then welcome!  If you're visiting me, I appreciate you stopping by today!  You can continue your journey to see the other inspiring creations from the IDEAS Team by clicking on the NEXT button at the bottom of the post. 

This month is all about Loving Sale-a-bration. Yes, it's THAT time of the year again! We have a huge 74-page bundle with 14 tutorials using all but one of the Sale-a-bration products that you can choose for FREE with a qualifying order from 5 January - 28 February 2023.  There is a heap of inspiration with each tutorial having at least one card and a 3D project. 

I've chosen 2 of my favourite Sale-a-bration products - the ‘Adorable Owls’ stamp set and ‘Dandy Designs’ 12” x 12” Designer Series Paper pack. The images from Adorable Owls are quite simply - adorable! They are quick to colour and you can use them for any occasion. I’ve coordinated them with the Dandy Designs DSP, which is a fabulous pack of 48 sheets with 4 each of 12 double sided designs in mainly pastel colours (Balmy Blue, Calypso Coral, Fresh Freesia, Petal Pink) with a few pops of brights (Granny Apple Green & Mango Melody). The small designs are perfect for card making and backgrounds.

I’ve created a fun box with a window to show a peek of what is inside. The lid sits inside the box and opens at the bottom with a thumb notch and is hinged at the top. The box is 6 1/2” x 4 5/8” x 1 1/4” (16.5cm x 11.8cm x 3.2cm) and fits standard C6 envelopes and full-sized cards. You could also choose to use it as a gift box with a coordinating card as the size makes it suitable for a lot of not-so-small gifts or treats.  You can see more photos by clicking on the Etsy link below.

There are 3 ways you can get the January 2023 Tutorial Bundle.

1.  Place an order with me for $50 or more using the current month's Host Code (shown in the side bar on the right) and you will receive the tutorial bundle for FREE. I will email you the PDF file within 24 hours of your order being confirmed.

IDEAS Blog Hop - We Are Cut Out to Be Friends!

Hi there

I'm back with the IDEAS (International Demos Exciting Artistic Stampin') team this month to share more fabulous projects. We are a group of international demonstrators who create a Tutorial Bundle each month to give you, our customers and readers a heap of inspiration for your crafting.

This month is all about cutting tools and techniques - fussy cutting, paper piecing, die cutting and punches to create lovely projects for you. 

I’ve created a fab little bag for treat/gift packaging using a single sheet of 12” x 12” patterned paper. Decorate and embellish to suit any occasion; you can keep a few on hand as they fold flat and take up very little space. They are perfect for a holiday or thank you treat/gift for teachers, neighbours, colleagues and your children’s friends; you can even hang them on the Christmas tree! The finished size is 5” x 5 1/2” x 3/4” (12.7cm x 14cm x 1.9cm) when standing. The card measures 5” x 5” (12.7cm x 12.7cm) and fits into one of pockets in the bag and includes an optional gift card holder. The gingerbread cookie fits into the pocket, too! You can see more photos by clicking on the Etsy link below.

Fitting Florets Designer Paper

Hi there

I wanted to pop by and remind you that time is running out to purchase the gorgeous Fitting Florets Designer Paper.  This item is available until 30 November or while stocks last. It coordinates beautifully with the early release Framed Florets Bundle, that will continue to be available as part of the 2023 Mini Catalogue offering.   

The images in the floral design in the top left of the collage above, can be fussy cut and there are 8 that can be cropped with the coordinating die from the Framed Florets Dies.

I designed the Stationery Box above with this gorgeous paper and you can see more details about it, on the original post here. Today, I want to share some card designs that I made to include in the Stationery Box.

I love these mini note cards that fit into the Stampin' Up! 3" x 3" envelopes. They are perfect to pop in with a small gift or a bunch of flowers. I've fussy cut the floral designs except for the one on the centre right, which was cropped with the coordinating die.  

I've used quite a few of the designs from the Fitting Florets DSP on these note cards. The decorative oval and the smaller centre oval from the Framed Florets Dies work really well with this card size. I've embellished them with the both stamped and fussy cut images.

SPECIAL OFFER:

I have a special offer for customers in Australia who purchase the Fitting Florets Collection or Framed Florets Bundle from my online store. Not only will you receive the Stationery Box Tutorial for FREE, but I will also send you a little package with the 2023 mini calendar, bamboo pen and blue sticky notepad, so you have everything you need to make this beautiful gift. This offer expires on 30 November, 2022. If you already have the bundle and would like to make the Stationery Box, you can purchase my tutorial here.

IDEAS Blog Hop - Giving Thanks!

Hi there

I'm back with the IDEAS (International Demos Exciting Artistic Stampin') team this month to share more fabulous projects. We are a group of international demonstrators who create a Tutorial Bundle each month to give you, our customers and readers a heap of inspiration for your crafting.

If you've come from looking at Caroline's lovely project, then welcome!  If you're visiting me, I appreciate you stopping by today!  You can continue your journey to see the other inspiring creations from the IDEAS Team by clicking on the NEXT button at the bottom of the post. 

This month our theme is about 'Giving Thanks'. Being thankful is about showing appreciation for a kindness done to us, for the goodness in our life, the friendships and relationships that bring us joy. I like to show my gratitude with a handmade card or gift, so I have created this pretty stationery box with the Fitting Florets Collection. 

The box contains much more than it would appear from the size and I've put every inch of space to good use.  It contains an assortment of full sized cards, note cards and mini 3” x 3” cards/tags all with envelopes, plus helpful accessories such as a sticky note pad, calendar, note book, pen and postage stamps - everything someone would need to keep in touch with loved ones. The finished box is 4 3/4” x 6 1/2” x 2 1/2” (12.1cm x 16.5cm x 6.3cm).  A beautiful thank you gift, but it would also be perfect for someone going travelling, a loved one in aged care, as a Christmas gift, or just for yourself, so you can enjoy this pretty box on your desk and have a selection of cards at hand. 

My 19 page tutorial provides step by step instructions for creating the box, plus designs for the full-size cards, note cards and mini cards, all using the beautiful Fitting Florets Designer Series Paper. You can see more photos by clicking on the Etsy link below.

SPECIAL OFFER:

I have a special offer for customers in Australia who purchase the Fitting Florets Collection or Framed Florets Bundle from my online store. Not only will you receive the Tutorial Bundle for FREE, but I will also send you a little package with the 2023 mini calendar, bamboo pen and blue sticky notepad, so you have everything you need to make this beautiful gift.
