Washi Wednesday #3

Wednesday is certainly coming around fast these days. Welcome once again to my Washi Wednesday series.

This time I used a mat piece of card stock and covered it with Moroccan Designer Washi Tape to create an interesting background.

I then used the Perfectly Wrapped stamp set for my sentiment "Happy Day". I often use a sentiment that can be used for many different occasions as it makes cards a little more versatile. I used the Tags & Labels Framelits to lift the sentiment off the background.

Today's project has also been entered into the current The Papers Players Challenge #332

Thanks for stopping by,

For very $90 you spend you receive a FREE item from the exclusive Sale-a-Bration catalogue. These products can not be purchased, but must be earned during the Sale-a-Bration period. You earn one item for every $90 you spend. So if you spend $90 - you can choose 1 FREE item, if you spend $180 - you choose 2 FREE items. I think you get the idea. The more you spend, the more FREE items you receive.

TEXTURES FOR YOU

I have some wonderful news I would like to share with you all. Last month a wonderful lady, Charlotte, took the opportunity during Sale-a-Bration to join my team.

During Sale-a-Bration, Stampin' Up! have a joining special. Not only do you choose $235 worth of products of you choice for $169, but you also choose two FREE stamp sets up to the total value of $179.

Today I made this card for Charlotte as a welcome to my team.

This is the first time I have used Touches Of Texture stamp set (143251). The set consists of 15 stamps. Many of the stamps are used to make texture rather than just images. The set can be used in many ways to create so many different looks. I think I am going to enjoy using this one - the uses seem endless.

Touches of Texture (143251)

I love how this cute little bee turned out. I stamped him using memento black ink and then coloured his body using a Crushed Curry Stampin' Write marker. I then used a clear Wink of Stella Glitter Brush to add just a touch of glitter to the wings on the bee and the centre of the flowers.

Crazy Crafters Blog Hop with Julie Davison

Welcome once again to a Crazy Crafters Blog Hop. This time we are CASEing (Copy And Selectively Edit) any project that has been created by Julie Davison. We hope you find great inspiration from todays projects.
 
You may just be starting the blog hop here at my blog - Rosalie Desmond or may have come from the person previous to me.  Be sure to click on the person listed under me further down the page to continue your journey on this blog hop.

As usual choosing just one project to CASE was a challenge. Julie is a Stampin' Up! demonstrator located in the US. She has created a huge amount of free PDF and videos tutorials for anyone to use. Make sure you take the time to check out Julie's blog for crafting inspiration.

After exploring her blog for hours (yes, there are heaps of amazing projects), I used this to CASE.

Here is one of the cards I came up with, with a loving theme.

This first one uses Pop of Pink DSP and Love You Lots stamp set to create a simple loving card. I used just touches of real red in the ribbon, the sentiment and a little colour on the flower.

I took the theme of the hedgehog and popped the image in the centre and a very small strip of the DSP.

Stamp Set:  Lots of Love (141798)

Inks:           Real Red (126949)
                   Memento Black (132708)

Cardstock:  Basic Black (121688)
                   Whisper White (106549)

Ribbon:       3/8" Stitched Satin Real Red (141693)

Love You Lots Stamp Set

On these cards I decided to use twine instead of ribbon to give a slightly different look. Same basic design but stepped up a little by popping the sentiment. All stamps on this card are from the Perfectly Wrapped stamp set.

The DSP used for these cards are a specialty paper which comes white and which I then used ink to colour it. This one uses Bermuda Bay ink to colour the DSP.

On this one I used Tempting Turquoise.

I kept the inside of the card pretty simple, so it can be used for a variety of occasions. The spotted stamp is also from the Perfectly Wrapped stamp set.
