Guilded Autumn Crafty Blog Hop

   

Wow these blog hops come around really quick, welcome back and thank you for taking the time to visit me as I Crafty Blog hop using Stampin’ Up!’s Gilded Autumn suite.

I fell in love with this suite when I saw it in the August to December Mini Catalogue and although it was not until later that I bought the Beautiful Autumn bundle I knew I had to have to other bits instantly.  I fell in love with the colours and the foil on the papers.

              

As soon as I saw these papers I knew instantly which photographs I was going to use, rewind to 21st September 2016 when my eldest daughter Roni called me to suggest we go for a walk around Sandringham Woods (nope never bumped into any royalty) as she was making the most of the nice weather before Isla Rose (my second granddaughter) arrived for Halloween (nope she came 14th October).  I must confess I have zero idea what she was doing nor what we were laughing about, other than we realised I wretch when I see fungi (very strange fact about me!)

Since I started scrapbooking in 2007, I find I take photographs with scrapbooking layouts or products in mind, I knew I wanted the six photographs to tell a story and when I saw Gilded Autumn speciality designer series paper exactly which sheets I was going to use and even what stamp set I wanted for these pages.

 

For the Beautiful Autumn Bundle I stamped the leaves in either Early Espresso or Soft Suede ink, I then used the Wet Wipe Technique (lay a wet wipe onto a plastic surface and drop various ink refill colours – I used Pumpkin Pie, Real Red and Crushed Curry then use as an ink pad) to colour the leaves in.  Once they dried, I punched them out with the co-ordinating dies.  I chose to use two sets of dies for the title and sub heading, this is the beauty of scrapbooking there are no rules and you can use whatever you like.

Happy Birthday to my beautiful eldest Daughter Roni

I wanted to share the card that I have made for my daughter, she is twenty-nine today.  We will be spending the day together which I cannot wait for, as even though she is grown up with her three amazing daughters she will always be my little girl, scary how quick time goes!

Stampin Up Peony Garden Peony stamp set and dies

When I set about making her birthday card (C5), I wanted to use Stampin’ Up! Peony Garden suite (Annual Catalogue) as this is just perfect for Roni.  I love the classy style of the stamps and how subtle the colours are.

I had great joy in stamping the images onto Whisper White cardstock and then using Stampin’ Up! watercolour pencils and an aqua painter brush to blend them all in.  To finish off the flowers I couldn’t resist winking all over them with the Wink of Stella pen. The bonus of this set it there are co-ordinating dies as well so no fussy cutting is needed.

It is time to get my Birthday craft on!

Well this time of year is very busy for me, I have my eldest daughter’s birthday, my father’s birthday and then all three of my granddaughter’s birthdays oh and not forgetting my daughter’s partner’s birthday, so from the 14th September to 14th October I have seven very important people’s birthdays!!!

Previously, I created a scrapbook page of my eldest granddaughter dressed up as Hermione and as it is her birthday on the 25th and I decided to create her a birthday card of the same theme.

I fell in love with how I created the scrapbook page – using a swirl from Stampin’ Up! Stitched Stars dies as a stencil with Cherry Cobbler and Bumblebee ink pads and sponge daubers to create the silhouette background on the Very Vanilla card topper.

Using a strip of Bumblebee cardstock on top of Cherry Cobbler cardstock and then used Stampin’ Up! Playful Alphabet dies to cut out the ‘Happy Birthday’ and number eleven using Stampin’ Up! Brushed Metallic cardstock.
