Hop Abroad Instagram Hop – February

2 February 2025
2 Comments

2 Feb

Hello lovely Crafty friends,

Today’s post is for the Hop Abroad Instagram Hop. Each month, we’ll explore a new theme; this month, it’s all about using Designer Series paper
I like to use the two Sale-A-Bration products one is Fruit Salad Designer Series Paper but without the fruit images, and the next one is the Heart Shaped Bundle.
Stay tuned for more inspiration, and be sure to check out the amazing creations from other participants! To see all the design team members’ projects, check out my Instagram account, @maheswarirajaguru.

Here is my project

Measurements:– Card 1

  • Base card – Pumpkin Pie 10.5cm x 29.6cm scored@14.9cm (4 1/4″ x 11″scored@ 5 1/2″)
  • Layer 1: DSP- 9cm x 14.9cm (3 1/2″x 5 1/2″)
  • Layer 2: : Peach Pie – 9cm x 14.9cm (3 1/2″x 5 1/2″)
  • Basic White Inside -10cm x 14.4cm (4″x 5 1/4″)
  • Scrap pieces of Basic White for die-cutting.
    Die-cut the Basic White cardstock first and stamp the sentiment on Basic White cardstock using Basic Gray Ink.
    For this card 1 : Die-cut the heart image on the peach pie cardstock 2 times on the top and bottom then adhere another die-cut hearts in the middle.

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?
