Pretty Petal Palette

I am having so much fun with the new Petal Palette in the Occasions catalogue.

I was a late starter getting this but I was seeing so many gorgeous creations that I just wanted to try for myself.  Does that happen to you?  You see how someone else uses something and then you simply must have it?  


I saw this colour challenge pop up and what did I reach for?  Yep, the Petal Palette!!

I stamped onto water colour paper and clear embossed the image to stop the ink going everywhere.

I took another piece of water colour paper and used the Tempting Turquoise to create a background wash.

I then die cut the flowers and sprig of leaves with the matching thinlets - Petals and more.
I water coloured the flowers with the Peekaboo Peach and the Emerald Envy.

Putting it all together, adding a little sentiment, and here's how it turned out!






Cute, right?

Since doing this  I have  cut and  coloured  several flowers and DSP (#loveitchopit), vellum leaves and glittery bits - all ready to see what other creations I can come up with.  






I am sure that when you start using this suite, you won't want to stop!

Please be sure to 'HOP' all of the way around to all of the projects on this Blog Hop, there is a list at the bottom of the page that will help you to make your way around. Today I wanted to challenge myself to try something a  bit different by showing the versatility of any stamp set - even if it only has a few images - and do three cards  with either different techniques or use the stamp in a different way.  Maybe even look at the stamps in the set and see what else I can do with them. I thought this would be a good way to show someone, that may be interested in a particular set, or trying to decide, or thinking a particular set didn't do very much, to think again and see the possibilities....

Kylie's Demonstrator training blog hop.

Welcome! Thank you for joining us for our Demonstrator Training Blog Hop this month! We are all part of a training program that has the sole purpose of improving our Stampin' Up!® businesses and to learn from a variety of top Stampin' Up!® Demonstrators from around the world. Please be sure to 'HOP' all of the way around to all of the projects on this Blog Hop, there is a list at the bottom of the page that will help you to make your way around. What a great way to get ideas on all the amazing new product than with a card swap! Organised by one of the Crazy Crafters, Nicole, we had to create a card front using anything from the new Occasions Catalogue or Sale-a-bration products - those are the freebies you get for every $AU90 you spend - and that is soooo easy to do once you see what's  inside the new catalogue! As the name says, there are new designs for all those upcoming occasions - Valentine's, Easter, Mother's  Day,  and almost anything ...

Crazy Crafters blog hop with Dena Rekow

This week we are hopping with Dena Rekow and using her blog  http:// www.thecreativitycave.com/  as inspiration. I spent so long looking through Dena's blog - not because I couldn't find anything, but because I loved so much! In the end I decided to use this card as my inspiration.  I loved the simplicity and the depth created with the different green ink colours used. And here is the card I created. I used the open leaf from Healing Hugs stamp set and stamped it in the colours  Pineapple Punch, Mango Melody, Poppy Parade and Lemon Lime Twist - such a juicy fruit mix of colours!   I wanted the colours to be uplifting for the sentiment that I used from the Friendly Expressions stamp set.  I embossed the background with the Lovely Floral embossing folder to give added dimension and then mounted the embossed and stamped panels on Pineapple Punch. I cut around the sentiment and layered it with dimensionals. A...
