Stampin' Up! UK Demonstrator Laura Mackie Papercrafter: heat embossing

Stampin' Up! Christmas Season

Welcome to this months Stampin' For Christmas Blog Hop,

we our a group of Stampin' Up1 Demonstrators from all over

the world sharing Christmas ideas and inspiration using

Stampin' Up! Stamps & products,

You're currently with me Laura Mackie a

Stampin' Up! Demonstrator from the UK.

Here is what I've made for todays hop

Todays card is made using the Stampin' Up!

Christmas Season Stamp set, this stamp set is full

of leaves, pine cones and festive foliage!

I've actually only used the Holly and berry stamps

to create todays card,

I randomly stamped the Holly leaves

onto a Crumb Cake layer in Old Olive ink, and then went

and added in the berries using Cherry Cobbler Ink,

Once I stamped the background,

I then stamped another

pair of Holly leaves and berries

onto Crumb Cake cardstock and die

cut those out with the coordinating dies,

I then went ahead and heat embossed my sentiment

in gold onto more Crumb Cake cardstock and

die cut with the Stampin' Up! Seasonal Label Dies,

My sentiment is from the

Christmas to Remember stamp set,

I love the sentiment and feel it really is true

this year after the last 18 months we have all had.

Once I started playing I felt my background over powered

the sentiment and holly,

so dug out a piece of Vellum cardstock

to lay over the top, It did just what I wanted and

softened my stamped background,

I added a bow behind my sprig of holly and leaves

with the Gold Simply Elegant trim, and added

a few Gold gilded gems to finish off my card

a really traditional Christmas card,

with Cherry Cobbler, Old Olive and Crumb Cake

and some gold thrown in!

Stampin' Up! Delivering Cheer Birthday Card

Welcome to the Share it Sunday Blog Hop,

we our a group of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators

from all over the worl sharing card making ideas

and inspiration with Stampin' Up! products.

You're currently with me Laura Mackie

a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator from the UK

This hop today we get to share something we've

been making with you now I made this cards

a few weeks back when I was playing with the

Delivering Cheer Stamp Set

I had totally forgot to share this card when I made it,

I made a sweet Christmas card using the

Delivery Cheer Stamp set, now this set is

kinda ment to be a Christmas / Autumn set but it really

it can be so much more! that stack of presents

could totally be a stack of birthday presents right??

Rich Razzleberry is my FAVOURITE Stampin' Up! Colour

and is the reason I discovered Stampin' Up!

around 11 / 12 years ago

I stamped my image onto Basic White cardstock

with memento ink, then set to colouring it with

my Stampin' Blends alcohol markers, in

Flirty Flamingo, Polished Pink and

Blackberry Bliss, and not forgetting

Ivory for her arms & legs

Once coloured I carefully cut the coloured image out

with my paper snips, keeping as close as possible to

the image outline, I wanted to create a card

without a with layer, I always use Basic white as

my layer! why??? so mounted my image this time

onto Rich Razzleberry cardstock.

I couldn't resist adding a layer of the gorgeous

Be Dazzling Speciality paper, this paper is FREE

with a £45 order of Stampin' Up! products, offer

ends 30th September 2021, I'll be sad to see this paper

go its stunning, I used a hole punch to punch out the circles

to resemble matching embellishments!

I did also add a few splats with some retired

shimmer paint, I hate using retired products as I know

how frustrating it can be to see something and

not be able to purchase but I'm sure you'll agree

it adds a lovely interest to the Rich Razzleberry layer!

All the products I've used today are availble via

my online store - details below.
