Birds, Blossoms, Butterflies - Creation Station Design Team Blog Hop

I guess by now, you know the theme of this months 
Creation Station Design Team Blog Hop? If not - it's 'Birds, Blossoms and Butterflies'.
Welcome to you, from the amazingly talented Linda. And as our Northern Hemisphere folks are looking forward to Spring, those of us Down Under are having an ongoing Summer.

My creations include the Blossoms & Butterflies brief...

Butterflies from the 'Butterfly Gala' stamp set, and the Blossoms; some *'Delightfully Detailed Specialty Paper' coloured with 'Stampin' Blends'.

*Available now as a 3rd release Sale-a-Bration item!

'Call Me Clover' & 'Lovely Lipstick' Stampin' Blends Markers Combo packs were used to colour the 'Delightfully Detailed Specialty Paper'.
I used the 'Dark Basic Black' Stampin' Blends Marker for the border.

Simply stamped butterflies, using StazOn ink for the butterflies, onto Vellum cardstock. Punched, then scattered onto the card front.
A little bit of embossing from the 'Subtle TIEF' gives some subtle texture.

Gift tags - using the Rectangle Stitched Framelits Dies. My favourite way to make gift tags!

And not to forget to mention the 'Coastal Cabana/Granny Apple Green Reversible Ribbon'. No words! 

The assortment of coloured flowers have been die cut from the 
'Lovely Flowers Edgelits Dies'.
The flowers were die-cut from 'Calypso Coral, Coastal Cabana, Highland Heather, Melon Mambo & Pineapple Punch' cardstock and the centre is 'Daffodil Delight' cardstock.

Next on the hop is my Australian Interstate, and gorgeous friend, Tanya. We live 722 miles (1,162 kms) apart, but I love Tanya's creations and I know you will too!

Thankyou for paying me a visit, and I hope you have enjoyed my take for this months Blog Hop. Looking forward to seeing you next month. D x

Inspire.Create.Stamping Challenges - 'Colour' Challenge #037

Hello, and welcome to my blog.
The Inspire.Create.Stamping Design Team have been creating some lovely Colour Challenge projects, and we would love for you to join in the fun. 
Click here to add your creation to our gallery.

Mint Macaron, Pool Party, Whisper White & Daffodil Delight are our gorgeous colours.

I have created a Medium sized Gift bag, and coordinating notecard.

I omitted a sentiment, as I love the daisy element as a statement on my creations. However, they are perfect for Birthday, Mother's Day, Thankyou or any other occasion as you desire.

Adding some texture using Whisper White cardstock, embossed using the 'Layered Leaves Dynamic TIEF' for a lovely feature.

 The Gift Bag has a belly band to secure to opening at the top. 
Wrap a piece of Whisper White cardstock measuring 7-1/2" x 1" (19cm x 2.5cm), and secure the ends with 'Tear & Tape Adhesive'. Wrap the 'Daffodil Delight Ribbon' around the belly band, securing with 'Tear & Tape Adhesive'. 
Attach the Daisy using 'Stampin' Dimensionals'.
Gift Bag dimensions: 11" x 8" (28cm x 20cm)

To create my daisies, I stamped off the 'Pool Party' ink for subtle petals. 

I stamped off the 'Mint Macaron' ink for the solid leaf, then stamped the outline of the leaf. Fussy cut the leaves, and adhere underneath daisy.

Stamp onto 'Daffodil Delight' cardstock with 'Daffodil Delight' ink to create the centre of the daisy. Attach to the daisy using a Stampin' Dimensional.

Notecard dimensions: x 5-1/2" x 2-3/4" - scored & folded at 2-3/4" (14cm x 7cm - scored & folded at 7cm)

Whisper White mat: 2-9/16" x 2-9/16" (6.5cm x 6.5cm)

Thankyou for visiting my blog. Looking forward to seeing what you create. See you next time. D x

Colour INKspiration #CI49

Hello, and welcome back to the Colour INKspiration Colour Challenge Blog Hop.
The Crew have had a little break over the Summer, and now we're back with our first Challenge for 2019!
You may have hopped from Julia's Blog, and I hope you loved her super fun creation?

What do you think of our new banner?.

Here is our Colour Swatch to get us started...
Melon Mambo, Coastal Cabana, Pineapple Punch & Highland Heather.
We can't wait to see what you create using these beautiful colours, and you can add your project to our Colour INKspration gallery here.

'Wishing you a lovely day'
A very sweet sentiment from the gorgeous 'Forever Lovely Bundle'.

I originally started out by die cutting the coloured flowers, and added the Basic Black middles - tiny circles from the 'Handheld Punch'.
I then added the 'Vellum' flourishes to make some tiny bouquets.

The Black & White gingham background is a great base for the pop of colour from the card base and flowers.

This is from the Sale-a-Bration item; 'Botanical Butterfly DSP' - FREE when you spend $90AUD on 

Next on our Blog Hop is my amazingly talented friend, Rose.
You are going to love Rose's take for our Colour Challenge.

Thankyou for paying me a visit, and enjoy the Colour INKspiration Crews creations. See you next time. D x
