Miss Pinks Craft Spot

It was with mixed emotions that I created this card, the Sweet Soiree Suite set has a special place in my heart as I presented it at On Stage in November 2017 - such a wonderful experience in so many ways. I also used all of the retiring 2017-2019 In Colours in my creation - they are soooo me: I will also miss the Silver Bakers twine, it is a lovely embellishment and is "forgiving for the bow challenged". I thought the scalloped edging was perfect for this feminine card, what do you think? Thanks for visiting today, I hope you enjoyed viewing my project. Stay tuned for more inspiration and tips this month. If you live in Australia and don't already have a demonstrator I'd love love to be yours.  Stamp sets & Framelits: Cake Soirée Clear-Mount Stamp Set , Sweet Cake Framelits Dies Ink:   Lemon Lime Twist, Tranquil Tide, Fresh Fig, Berry Burst, Powder Pink, VersaMark Cardstock :  Whisper White, Powder Pink, Berry Burst ...

I did it, and I couldn't be happier! Way back when I was preparing for OnStage in November I wanted to make a scrapbook page, well, time got the better of me and it didn't happen, but last night I came across the photos I had chosen, so today I've finally made the Scrapbook page, YAY ME! I've used half a sheet of the gorgeous  Sweet Soirée Specialty Designer Series Paper and pre cut elements from the  Sweet Soirée Embellishment Kit - both of these items are retiring on May 31st so be quick before they are gone, and as an added bonus the DSP is also discounted, woot happy days! I used sentiments from Eastern Beauty , and a May Flower Framelit Die to add to the floral arrangement - I just love how easy it is to mix and match Stampin' Up! items. The  Decorative Ribbon Border Punch was also a perfect accompaniment, and lastly a strip of Velvet Ribbon (available June 1st). Here's hoping to this being the first of many more 12 x 1...

Today you are in for a treat with the Crazy Crafters Blog Hop, we have the pleasure of CASEing Nadine Weiner, you may be familiar with her gorgeous creations at Nadines Stampin Club I spent way too much time viewing Nadine's creations, I was inspired to try a technique using Glossy cardstock and Ink refills, but after multiple attempts my creation didn't do Nadine justice, so I went back to the drawing board with hours to spare and re-selected my project to case. I've cased the basic layout with the fine layer (one of my absolute loves), and of course the use of DSP - a great way to come up with beautiful cards when you have limited time #loveitchopit I swapped the white out for Rich Razzleberry, and heat embossed the sentiment and layer in silver to compliment the silver foil in the DSP design. As the Sweet Soiree DSP has larger images I didn't add any additional elements - this gorgeous paper does all the work, so much so I had time to make a...

Hello, welcome to the April Go for Greece Blog Hop which is a part of the Go For Greece demonstrator training group. A supportive and sharing community has built up and is led by Kylie Bertucci.  As part of the Go For Greece group are all working towards achieving the Stampin’ Up! annual trip this year, which is a trip to the Greek Isles for two people, wouldn’t that be just amazing!!!!!? I'm working with one of my favourite suites today - sentimental as I did a presentation of the Sweet Soiree Suite at the Melbourne OnStage event in November, so very close to my heart as whilst doing a presentation in front of 100's of demonstrators was way out of my comfort zone, the "personal stretch" to do so was so rewarding. My card today features the "ghosting technique", what's that you say? In a nut shell you create the illusion  of a  lighter shadow behind  a main colour focal point by stamping with white craft ink first and then with colour ove...
