Global Design Project #248

This week's Global Design Project challenge #248 was CASE (Copy And Selectively Edit) the designer. We were honored to CASE a card designed by the super talented Manuela Geiswinkler from Austria.

I used the fabulous Rainbow Glimmer Paper from the new 2020-2021 Stampin' Up! catalog. It's sooooo pretty and so sparkly! It is great to work with too because it doesn't cover your entire work area with glimmer.


Thanks for stopping by today,

Splash Vellum Background

This technique is so fun. And it was the perfect background for the Global Design Project #GDP247 theme "SUN FUN" this week.  I created a whole bunch of cards with it and every background is unique and different and it is always a surprise how it turns out.

I am so very honored that this project has been chosen by the design team to be a winner for this week's challenge!

I colored my velum with my Stampin' Blend markers. Then I spritzed some alcohol over the vellum. The ink gets pushed away where it hits the vellum and that creates super cool effects. Give it a try!






Thanks for stopping by and happy crafting!

SPOILER ALERT - PREVIEW

One of the perks of being a demonstrator is that we get to see the new catalog a little early. We also get to pre-order some products from the new catty. It always feels like Christmas to open that box and see all the new stamps, dies, punches, accessories and so much more.

Here is a card I made with the new Birds and Branches set that comes as a bundle with coordinating dies. Isn't that so cute?



Stay healthy and happy crafting,

Clubhouse

Do you struggle with masculine cards? The Clubhouse stamp set from Stampin' Up! is the answer to that problem! Together with the coordinating dies and Designer Series Paper this bundle is so much fun! And pssst..... it's not just for guys but for all your golfing friends! LOL


For this card I cut out a window on the front so you can see through it and covered it with a window sheet on which I glued my golf ball, tee and grass. 


I glued another golf ball, tee and grass as well as a frame on the window from inside of the card to give it a finished look from the that side as well. Once you open the card all those mini golf balls become visible. 


I was on a roll with that set once I started creating so there is more to come. Stay tuned. Thanks for checking in today!

Stay healthy and happy crafting,

Global Design Project #240

This weeks Global Design Project #240 challenge was CASE (= Copy And Selectively Edit) the designer. Kerstin Kreis who is a super talented Stampin' Up! demo from Germany presented the inspiration.

I got creative with all my dies and punches. Did you know that the leaf die from the "Poppy Moments" makes a perfect unicorn? And the leaf and daisy punches makes great ears? I love to think outside the box and use my tools in new and unexpected ways.



Happy crafting,
