Using Your Stash of Paper

Hi everyone, it is time to get that stash of paper out and start to use it.  I have so much paper it is not funny and I got inspired by Kylie Bertucci with her #LOVEITCHOP hashtag encouraging everyone to start using our paper stash.

I made a set of cards using the Floral Boutique Designer Series Paper.  I love this paper, with the elegant look of Night of Navy and Whisper White.   Just add a touch of silver and you have a beautiful card.

The stamp set I have used is Rose Wonder.  It has sentiments suitable for a lot of occasions and I love the font on the stamps.


The flower was cut from a piece of the patterned paper and adhered to the centre panel using dimensionals.  Quick and simple.


I cased myself for this card and I even used some of my Washi Tape Stash.  The flower was made using the Botanical Builder Framelits.


This is a quick and simple design with a piece of patterned paper adhered to the bottom of the Whisper White piece and a strip of Washi Tape placed over the join.   A flower placed on a Stitched Shaped Circle was added to finish the card.


This card is my favourite in the set, again using one of the flowers cut from the patterned paper.


Final card in the set.  The flower arrangement was made using the Botanical Builder Framelits.

Festive Birthdays

Hi everyone, I went a little crazy making cards for the Ronald McDonald House Charity.  

This is the design of the Birthday Blast stamp set and Star Blast Edgelits dies I cased from Priscilla Ivler.  Priscilla made a beautiful card with a colour scheme of Watermelon Wonder, Pool Party and Silver. 

I have used the Festive Birthday's Designer Series Paper, this makes such bright colourful cards. I made three colour combinations.


One for the boys.


One for the girls.


One for everyone.

Urban Underground

Hi everyone, have you ever found yourself not using a certain sheet of paper in a paper pack?  You know that piece that just does not inspire you.  I have used three packs of the Urban Underground Specialty Designer Series Paper to date (that is all except the Basic Black and Basic Gray sheets with the Delight Dijon geometric pattern on the other side).

My challenge to myself was to design a card around this paper. Hopefully I Nailed It (excuse the pun) with this card.


It uses the patterned paper that I have six sheets of and I can also use the other off cuts from previous projects.

The stamp sets I have used are Tin of Cards and Nailed It along with the matching Build It Framelits Dies.  You can get this stamp set and framelits in a bundle and save 10%.  Add the Urban Underground Specialty Designer Series Paper, Silver Foil Sheet, and the Urban Underground Embellishments and you have all you need to make this card.  You will also need the StazOn Black Ink and Delightful Dijon Ink if you do not have these in your stash.  

I will be making a few of these to add to my cards for the Ronald McDonald House Charity.

Affectionately Yours Designer Series Washi Tape

Hi everyone, I have been on a mission to use my Washi Tape.  I have quite an extensive collection happening, and even though it looks pretty all lined up in the drawer where I keep it, it looks even prettier on a card.



It is great to use as an accent behind flowers and as an embellishment on your card.  It can also be used to decorate the inside of the card by adding a strip to the bottom of the card insert.

This card uses the Affectionately Yours Designer Washi Tape and the Affectionately Yours Specialty Designer Series Paper.  I love the copper accents in this paper.  The stamp set use is Love and Affection, the images were fussy cut.   Colour scheme of Night of Navy, Crumb Cake and Whisper White.

Birthday Blast - Faux Metal Background

Hi everyone, I am rather excited about this card.  I will be teaching this card at my classes during March.


I created a faux metal background using the Hexagon Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder, Versamark Ink, Gold and Copper Embossing Powder, Silver Foil Sheets and Black StazOn.

The design of the Birthday Blast stamp set and Star Blast Edgelits dies I cased from Priscilla Ivler.  Priscilla made a beautiful card with a colour scheme of Watermelon Wonder, Pool Party and Silver. I just changed the colour scheme to Copper, Very Vanilla, Basic Black and Silver to match the faux metal background that I had created.

To create the faux metal background ink up the Hexagon Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder with Versamark ink.  Put a piece of Silver Foil sheet measuring 13.8cm x 9.5cm through the embossing folder and the Bigshot. This will transfer the Versamark ink to the Silver Foil Sheet and at the same time emboss it with the Hexagon design. Lightly add Gold and Copper embossing powder, you do not want it too heavy as you want some of the silver to show through.  Heat set this.  Once cool lightly rub the Black StazOn ink pad over the piece transferring the ink.  Do not go too heavy otherwise you will spoil the effect of the Gold and Copper embossing.  You can always add more, but you cannot take it off.

NOTE the debossed and embossed side of the embossing folder.  I inked up the front side of the embossing folder (this is the side with the raised hexagons). You can do the other side, you will just get a different finish which looks just as great. 

I have seen this technique where they put the ink on the Foil Sheet before running it through the Bigshot.  I have tried this and it is an absolute pain trying to get the StazOn ink off the embossing folder. The way that I have done it gives a slightly different effect but the clean up is so much easier.  I like the finished effect so this is the way I am doing the technique.

To make the card cut a piece of A4 Basic Black cardstock in half lengthwise.  Fold this in half to create the card base.

Cut a piece of Kraft cardstock 14.3cm x 10cm.  Adhere this to the card front.  Adhere the faux metal piece that you created to the Kraft cardstock mat.

Cut 3 pieces of small dotted Designer Series Paper from the Urban Underground Speciality Designer Series Paper pack 1.5cm x 9.5cm.  One is for the card inside, this is adhered to the bottom of a piece of Very Vanilla cardstock 14.3cm x 10cm which is adhere to the card base.

Cut a piece 7.5cm x 9.5cm of the Basic Black patterned paper with the small X on it.  Adhere the two strips of small dotted print paper to the top and bottom of this piece.  Adhere to the card front, refer to the picture for placement.

Cut a star blast from Copper Foil Sheet using the Star Blast Edgelits Dies.  Make sure to keep the star shapes as you will be using these.

Cut a piece of Very Vanilla cardstock 5cm x 9.5cm.  Stamp the Happy Birthday sentiment from the Birthday Blast stamp set on this piece using Basic Black Archival Ink.  Using the Stampin' Trimmer score two small lines on all four sides.  Adhere the Copper Foil Star Blast to the top of this piece and then adhere to the card front.

Stamp "Wahoo" on a piece of Very Vanilla cardstock and cut out using the die in the Star Burst Edgelits dies.  Also cut out a Basic Black frame from the same die set.  Adhere the "Wahoo" piece to the card front and then layer the Basic Black frame around this.

Adhere the Copper stars in place, refer to the picture for placement.
