Jessica Taylor's the special international demonstrator we picked to CASE (Copy And Selectively Edit) in our blog hop this week and boy was it fun choosing a design of hers.  Here's the one I ended up going with:

The Just Add Colour DSP is perfect for the spotlight technique and so I couldn't just stop at making one!  I made a whole six which I'll be bundling up with some pretty ribbon to give someone as a gift.

The Stampin' Blends allow the colours to really make that one house in each design stand out.  If you haven't got them on your wish list when the new catalogue goes live, put them on now!!  You won't regret it.

Happy crafting,

Fiona

It's that time of year when we sadly wave goodbye to some much loved favourites to make way for sparkling new products in the next annual catalogue (released on 1 June).  The Ink It! Stamp It! Design Team are giving a few of the retiring bundles the royal send off in our blog hop this month.  I have chosen quite an old set that I've had with me since my very first Stampin' Up! days and will be sad to see go, even though I confess I haven't dug them out for a while.

The colours of the pansy are the soon to retire 2016-2018 In Colours.  Flirty Flamingo is actually staying on as a permanent colour, but sadly we are waving goodbye to Dapper Denim, Peekaboo Peach, Sweet Sugarplum, and Emerald Envy.


The Flower Shop stamp set and Pansy punch were two of the very first products I bought with Stampin' Up!  You can see why, can't you?  They are super versatile and I love being able to punch out the image rather than running it though a Big Shot. (Dies are great too!  I just like the variety.)  So don't miss out if you want to nab yourself either one now, they will be available to purchase only until 31st May.  Click on their images below to be taken straight to the store.

Here's everything you need to make this card yourself.

 Happy crafting,

I had so much fun entering some card challenges last week that I've turned to another for inspiration this week.  Bring on the fun with Global Design Project #137.  This week's brief was to make a card with the colours Melon Mambo, Lemon Lime Twist, and Pool Party.  What a beauty!

It's getting to that time of year when we say goodbye to some firm favourites as we see out the current catalogue and welcome in the new (1 June). Paisleys and Posies has been well loved in my craft room so I wanted to try and give it a fond farewell with one last card.

This card featured in my weekly Tuesday Tutorial, a Facebook Live video that I do every Tuesday evening at 7.30pm Melbourne time.  (Come and join in the fun!  You just need to tune in to my Facebook page here at the right time.  If you've "liked" my page you will get a notification that I'm live.)
