Hop Abroad Insta Hop- December

8 December 2024
4 Comments

8 Dec

Hello lovely Crafty friends,

My Today’s card uses the Season Of Elegance Bundle for the Hop Abroad Insta Hop. Each month, we will have a different theme; this month’s theme is GOLD & SILVER.
I prefer to pick either one for my project but doing something with both Gold & Silver is different to me,
I used the dark Cherry Cobbler as my Base Card embossed using the Timber 3D embossing folder.

Check out my Instagram account, @maheswarirajaguru, to see all the design team members’ projects.

Here is my project

    What did you use for the pink “ribbon”? It looks like maybe baker’s twine colored with Stampin’ Blends?

    This is lovely!

      Hi Stacey, I frayed the Petunia Pop Ribbon and added next to the Silver Trim.

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!

One of the best things about OnStage is meeting so One of the best things about OnStage is meeting so many wonderful people #onstage2026 . I was so happy to meet most of my amazing friends. Sharing a few photos I captured during the event. ❤️
Welcome to Hop Abroad March Insta Hop, each month Welcome to Hop Abroad March Insta Hop, each month there is different theme, this month theme is something interesting thats NO STAMPING!
I created this card for today’s challenge - and the fun part is, there is no stamping at all! 😊

Sometimes it’s nice to step outside our usual crafting style and try something different. By playing with colours, layers, and textures, you can still create a beautiful and interesting card. Challenges like this are a great way to spark creativity and try new ideas.
Have you ever made a card without stamping?
