Painted Harvest and Rooted in Nature for GDP136

Posted in Cards, GDP, Global Design Project, New, Rooted In Nature, Stampin' Up by

It’s time for another Global Design Project (GDP136) Challenge and this time we are CASEing the Designer! In the card making world you can find inspiration from so many different people and I am always in awe of some of the creations I see. The designer we are CASEing this time is fellow Canadian and Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator, Allison Okamitsu. Allison is one of the most talented Demonstrators out there. Her cards are always bright and fun, and her designs are always beyond gorgeous. I am so excited we are CASEing her for this challenge! Here is my card:

GDP136 - CASeing Allison

When we CASE (Copy and Share Everything or Copy and Selectively Edit), we can copy the design exactly or choose to take elements of the card and make them our own. Here is Allison’s card that is the inspiration for this weeks challenge.

GDP136_Allison_Okamitsu

Isn’t her card just adorable? In this case, I chose to go with Allison’s layout with the four images on the top and the sentiment on the bottom.

For my card I used one of my favourite stamp sets, Painted Harvest, as well as a new favourite; the brand new Rooted In Nature Stamp Set that will be available in the new 2018/2019 Annual Catalogue coming out on June 1st.

The colours I used are Pacific Point, Pool Party, and Daffodil Delight. I also added some embossing powder for the sentiment for an extra little touch.

I do hope you liked this card! Be sure to subscribe to my blog and newsletter by clicking the link on the right-hand side of this page! You can also catch me over on YouTube, where I share video tutorials and more.

Colour Revamp Revealed

Posted in Annual Catalogue, Colour Revamp, DIY, New, New Catalogue, Retiring List, Shop, Stampin' Up, Uncategorized by

Colour Revamp

The spice of life is variety, and that’s especially true in the world of color. Stampin’ Up! makes a point to keep an eye on color trends across different markets and industries. When they see changes happening, they review their color spectrum to ensure that they remain consistently on top of the trends. This brings us to the 2018 Color Revamp! In order to keep bringing you the most current and on trend colours, they decided it was time to give their color collections a makeover.

You may have noticed from the Retiring Lists that many colours are going away. While I am sad to see some of my favourite colours go (goodbye my beloved Island Indigo), I am equally excited to see some returning favourites, as well as some brand new colours!

First, let’s take a look at the RETIRING COLOURS. They are below.

Colour Summary

Second, let’s new at NEW colours. Notice any returning favourites?!

New Colours

Next, let’s look at the FULL colour Reveal, including new Colour Collections.

Full Colour Reveal

Aren’t these colours delicious?! I am very excited about Merry Merlot, Mango Melody, Gorgeous Grape, and Balmy Blue! Oh, and did you see that Mint Macaron is coming back?! YES!

So, what do you think about these changes? I’d love to hear your feedback in the comment section of this blog post. I am absolutely excited about this and can just imagine all of the fun stamping we can have with these colours.

There is another change coming (I know, it’s a lot to take in), but the ink pads are also changing and I’ll post about those soon! And trust me, it is good!

When the catalogue goes live on June 1st, I’ll also have some colour guides available for my customers.

Be sure to sign up for my newsletter if you’re not already on my list!

Thanks for joining me today! Happy Stamping!

Hello friends! Welcome back to the Stampin’ Girl blog! My apologies for not posting in a little while, as we’ve been dealing with a flooded basement! I’ve had to start using my dining room as my craft area, but I’m at least excited I can still craft!

January Paper Pumpkin

Posted in New, Paper Pumpkin, Stampin' Up, Uncategorized by

january-paper-pumpkin-blog-2

I am a little late with showing off this kit, but let me tell you, good things actually come to those who wait!

I mean, just look at how cute these treats bags are!

These are from the January Paper Pumpkin kit. If you’re unfamiliar with Paper Pumpkin, it’s a monthly crafting subscription kit that delivers creativity to your door every month. Each box includes everything you need to make a stunning project (including any ink AND adhesive!). The kits are also more than just cards (as you can see above), as it can also be projects such as cards, gift packaging, and home décor.

The best part? The kit is only $26.95/month, shipping included!

Here are some examples of past kits:youtubeth_pp_septyoutubeth_pp_octoberyoutubeth_pp_novemberdec-2016youtube-thumbnailpng

Aren’t these awesome? I mostly like how there are themed boxes for holidays. It makes it so much easier when I’m running behind on getting treats made for the kids classes or if I’m running behind on making Christmas cards!

The cool thing about the crafty Paper Pumpkin kits each month, is that often they have extra supplies so I’m always sure to use those for more craft projects later.

So the big question…are you a Paper Pumpkin subscriber?

If you are – THANK YOU!

If you are not, you have a few choices to try it out:

All subscriptions started by the 10th of the month will receive the kit for that month.

All subscribers get to purchase these PAST KITS anytime!

All kits are delivered right to your mailbox each month! Can you say Happy Mail?!

Subscriptions and kits make GREAT gifts too!

Please email or contact me with any questions.

Welcome to Stampin’ Girl.com!

Posted in New, Stampin' Up by

If you’ve been following me for a while, you’ll notice that things have changed around here. And for the better I hope.

If you’re new, then welcome to Stampin’ Girl.com!

I used to be Handstamped with Love, but to be honest, have neglected that blog for a while now. While stamping, crafting, and general DIY have always been a passion of mine, it wasn’t until recently that my passion for blogging and my passion to take this business a bit further, were reignited.

You see, I am part of the “Stamp with Jenn” team, and with this, Jenn hosts quarterly meetings where we chat all things business, projects, and ideas…and of course we also get crafty. It was at this meeting where something in me just clicked. I’ve always been active with my Stampin’ Up! business; hosting events, etc., but I’m mostly only active on my Facebook page.

So as we were talking, though I can’t pinpoint the exact moment, something sparked within and I instantly had project ideas come to mind, and this included a complete rebranding of my stamping business. New name, new blog, new Facebook page, and new Instagram.

I truly love this business of mine and I love to share the joy and love crafting and stamping can bring, so with my newly rebranded Stampin’ Up! business, I hope to help you inspire and create. And who knows, maybe you’ll even join me on this journey in the future.

I do hope you follow along, so be sure to follow my blog by clicking the ‘follow me‘ bottom on the side bar. Not only will I be sharing project and card ideas, but you’ll also find crafting and DIY tutorials, and who knows, maybe even some self-love tutorials as well!

Thank you to everyone who has and continues to support my business. I truly appreciate you all.
