World Cardmaking Day

 Happy World Cardmaking Day! Stampin' Up! hosted a FREE online event today and it was lots of fun.  Sometimes its great to create a design by another crafter to step out of your comfort zone. Here are the three cards we used:


This card was made with the new Heartfelt Hexagon Bundle which is an online exclusive. I love the simplicity of this card.

Here is what we used:
Stamps: Heartfelt Hexagon
Ink: Blueberry Bushel, Lemon Lime Twist, Berry Burst
Card/Paper: Basic White, Berry Burst, Bubble Bath, Azure Afternoon, Lemon Lolly, Lemon Lime Twist
Tools: Hexagon Punch
Embellishments: Tinsel Gems Four Pack


This one was with the Earthern Textures Stamps and Dies.  I haven't used these yet and I love the different colours used for this one.

Here is what we used:
Stamps:  Earthern Textures
Ink: Blueberry Bushel, Lemon Lime Twist, Pecan Pie
Card/Paper: Blueberry Bushel, Basic White, Watercolour Paper
Tools:  Earthern Textures Dies, Water Painter
Embellishments:  Tinsel Gems Four Pack


I think this one was my favourite and love the technique of using a Stampin' Write Marter to draw on the stripes for the background half circles.  Such a cool technique.

Here is what we used:
Stamps:  Circle Sayings
Ink: Blueberry Bushel
Card/Paper: Lemon Lolly, Azure Afternoon, Basic White
Tools:  2 3/8" Circle Punch, Lemon Lolly Stampin' Write Marker
Embellishments:  Tinsel Gems Four Pack

If you didn't get a chance to join in why not give these a go with what supplies you have.  If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask!

As an added bonus Stampin' Up! are offering free shipping from the 9th-11th October on qualifying orders! Time to stock up on supplies and maybe a few things from the wish list.

Happy crafting,
Bec
