Hello lovely crafters,

Good Morning, 
New Mini Catalogue Products are available from today! 

Today’s card for January 2024 – Let’s Craft Together Blog Hop.

Each month’s challenge will be set by each member, and this month’s theme challenge was by my lovely friend Nancy! It’s Picture Inspiration or Colour Challenge. I picked the colours. 

I used the Petal Patterns dies. Embossing folders are from the Sale-A-Bration Softly Sophisticated Bundle, You can receive these Bundle FREE when you spend $180 in the Online Store.

Measurements:

  • Bubble Bath 14.9cm x 21cm scored@10.5cm 
  • Layer 1: 10.5cm x 13.4cm (embossed) 
  • Scrap pieces of Blueberry Bushel, Pecan Pie, Berry Burst

Here is the picture inspiration challenge.


SOFTLY SOPHISTICATED BUNDLE (ENGLISH)SALE-A-BRATION FREE- when you shop Online for more than $180 

  • Adhere the Base card with the embossed Bubble Bath Cardstock using glue. 
  • Used a Blending Brush to colour the background and die-cut the Basic White cardstock using the Petal Patterns Dies. 
  • Used watercolour paper to apply a little drop of Pecan Pie with water to get a light shade. 
  • Adhere all the die-cut pieces to the left side of the Cardstock using glue and Stampin’ Dimensional. 
  • Stamp the sentiment in Basic White using the Bluberry Bushel Ink.
  • Decorate the inside of the card using some scrap pieces of the die-cuts.

Hello Crafty Friends, Today's hop is for the Hop Hello Crafty Friends,

Today's hop is for the Hop Abroad April 2026 Instagram Hop.
Each month, we come together with a fun and inspiring new theme, and for this month’s hop we are chasing the catalogue.
For this project, I chose to feature an image from page 41 of the Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalogue 2025–2026. As this catalogue will soon be retiring, it felt like the perfect time to revisit some of its beautiful inspiration and give it one more moment to shine.

Make it Masculine Today’s post is by the Piccadil Make it Masculine 
Today’s post is by the Piccadilli Players about masculine cards, and I wanted to create something a little different Masculine card with a vintage feel.

For this card, I used the Gears and Texture Bundle, which is a fantastic set for masculine projects. To create the background, I started with watercolor paper and blended Summer Splash, Pretty Peacock, Early Espresso, and Pecan Pie for a rich, aged look.

I love how the colours and texture came together to create a masculine card with a unique vintage style.
We have more inspiration using Masculine cards today. Let's see what Su @aromasandart created.

Today’s post is for the Be Inspired Design Team Bl Today’s post is for the Be Inspired Design Team Blog Hop. Every month we have a different theme, and this month it’s all about simple techniques you’ll use forever.
One technique I always go back to is splattering… I like to call it my little “splatter of happiness” 😊 You’ll see it in most of my cards, I just feel it adds that extra touch and makes both me and the person receiving it a little happier.
For this card, I used watercolours to colour the flowers. I actually got this set on OnStage2026 and didn’t use it there with blends, but when I came home I tried it with watercolours instead - and I really love how it turned out! 
Make sure you check out all the other Design Team projects below-you’ll get so many lovely ideas!
