It's time for the Stamping Sunday Design Team Blog Hop.

Our theme is 'Picture This', and we are using current Stampin' Up! products before the new 2023-2024 Annual Catalogue products become available 1st May, 2023.

I found a blue photo frame in the depths of my craft room, and I remembered a photo of my 2 boys on a Clipper that would be a great starting point for my 'Picture This' creation...

I have literally made a framed Scrap page, and this is something I need to do more of...

Way back in January 2020, we holidayed in Airlie Beach, Queensland Australia - The beautiful Whitsundays.

The 'Clipper Round the World Race' leg from Perth, moored at Abel Point Marina.

(I was in my element!)

The 'Let's Set Sail Bundle' was my go to for my creation, using 'Pacific Point', 'Poppy Parade' & 'Mango Melody' sails for my Yachts.

(I know they're not Clippers, but they were a perfect element for my page)

I made the water using the 'Baby Wipe Technique' dropping 'Balmy Blue & 'Coastal Cabana' ink from the refills onto a 'Baby Wipe', stamping the water image onto my ready made ink pad, and stamping directly to the 'Basic White' cardstock.

A heat embossed sentiment to add some detail to my page.

Finishing off with the blue frame.

Below are my amazing team members, Sharni & Ruth, with their creations.

Enjoy, and see you next time. D x

Hello, and welcome to my blog.

The Creation Station Design Team are showcasing our April Theme 'Music to my ears', and we have some of our favourite music inspired creations to share with you.

You may have hopped to me from Sara Nell, and I am happy that you are here.

It started out with the absolutely lovely 'Enjoy the Journey 12" x 12" Designer Series Paper', and it turns out the music I am sharing is the song 'Who needs Hawaii? by Cass Hopetoun.

Do you know it? If you don't know the song, have a listen here.

I'm not one for creating Scrap pages, but this is one fun photo with Louise and the lyrics are perfect for where we were. Celebrating New Years Eve on Louise's farm, watching the sun setting over the mountains and making memories.
