Stampin' Up! Friends of the Forest

Thank you for coming by today, I've been a bad blogger!

and hadnt blogged since Early December,

but I have still been doing a little crafting which included

making this card and I wanted to share it with you all with a video

on how i created it!

This cute card I've made uses the

NEW Stampin' Up! Friends of the forest stamp set,

I instantly fell in love with this set and even better it coordinates

with the Deer Builder punch

This was the kinda cute card i had in my head as soon

as I saw the Friends of The forest stamp set,

its cute and whimsical,

I've created the background using the Stampin' Up!

Blending Brushes and recomend watching my video below

to see how I created that pretty background / Sky!

The sentiment is from the Special Moments Stamp set

which is available for FREE with a £90.00 order

of Stampin' Up! products.

Stampin' Up! Brilliant Wings

Welcome to this months Ink. Stamp. Share monthly Blog Hop we our a

group of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from all over the world

sharing card making and papercraft ideas and inspiration using

Stampin' Up! Products. Your currently with me Laura Mackie a

Stampin' Up! Demonstrator from the UK.

Each month we host a hop with a theme

and this months theme is 'Showcase' which

means we get to share with you

what we've been working on

Heres my card:

I saw lots of fellow demonstrators playing with

their Stampin' Blends, Vellum cardstock,

their Heat tool and Isopropranol

and I had held off playing, but loved how fab

the backgrounds looked, so couldnt resist any longer!

Here is the result, this background was created

after I had experimented with just one Stampin' Blend,

which I would recommend playing with One Blend first

before adding two then maybe three!

This background uses Polished Pink - Dark with

Pretty Peacock - Dark Stampin' Blends.

I watched a video on YouTube by Lisa Curcio

who shared a fab video and is well worth

a watch if you would like to give it ago too!

Its so much fun you wont be dissappointed!

Check Lisa's Video out HERE

I kept my card pretty simple

as I wanted the Background I created to be

centre of attention, the Butterfly is die cut

using the Brilliant Wings dies with Basic White

cardstock, my sentiment is heat embossed

in white on Basic black cardstock so

it reallt pops!

Spot the Be Dazzling Speciality paper!

Look at the sparkle its sooo pretty and

really adds a wow to any project!

I LOVE this stuff,

I even punched out the little

tiny circles too.

I hope you enjoy the rest of the hop
