CHRISTMAS IS JULY COLOUR CHALLENGE STAMPING INKSPIRATIONS JULY, 2022

&nb

Thank you for joining me for the Stamping Inkspiration Blog Hop, todays theme is a Christmas in July colour challenge. We were a choice of two colour palettes depending on our preference of the holiday... cold weather or warm weather.

Here is Australia, Christmas is quite warm, but I chose the cold weather palette, there were 2 reasons for this, firstly I prefer a traditional Christmas and secondly it's freezing here at the moment, July for us is very cold.

The colours given for the cold weather version are: Cherry Cobbler, Evening Evergreen, Soft Succulent, Sahara Sand, Early Espresso.

For this card I used the Christmas Season Stamp Set and the coordinating Season Labels Dies.

As someone kindly pointed out there is only 24 more Saturdays before Christmas so this is a good way to get started.

If you have any questions contact me at sueallensimplycraft@bigpond.com.

Thank you for stopping by, now onto the rest of the hop to be inspired, enjoy.

SHOWCASE BLOG HOP JULY, 2022 INK, STAMP SHARE

Welcome to this months Showcase Blog Hop with the Ink Stamp Share group. This hop showcases projects we are working on using current Stampin' Up! Projects.

The last few weeks have been strange, both my husband and i have had some sort of virus, not Covid thankfully or the flu, but whatever it was, was draining so I'm very behind with everything including sending out catalogues, shock horror. I needed a card that was very simple and very quick and obviously including new product.

One of the cutest new products is one of the Sale-a-bration items, Hippest Hippos, are they gorgeous? and there are also matching dies.

I also used another Sale-a-bration item, Pool Party & Soft Sea Foam Cards & Envelopes, the cards are so pretty and save so much time cutting and scoring.

The frame came from the Seasonal Labels Dies and for a little bit of texture I ran it through the Brick & Mortar 3D Embossing Fold.

Very easy and very quick, hope this inspires you.

If you have any questions contact me at sueallensimplycraft@bigpond.com.

Thank you for stopping by, now onto the rest of the hop for more inspiration, enjoy.

Take care, stay safe

SKETCH LAYOUT STAMP 'N HOP BLOG HOP JULY 2022

Welcome to this month's Stamp 'N Hop Blog Hop, a Sketch Layout, which I love because you can play around as long as you follow a basic design, unfortunately with not being too well June totally bypassed me so now I am having to play catch up, as you will see shortly I had to make a super quick card to take part.

The sketch was sleek and easy

I suppose some people may think it is cheating, but this card has no stamping, it is solely Designer Series Paper, actually Specialty Designer Series Paper as it includes 2 pages of cut outs.

This DSP is part of the It's a Man Suite, I love the dies in this set which includes labels, circles, and banners but my absolute favourite is the argyle pattern dies, (you get 2) and I have used one to decorate the inside of my card. Couldn't be easier.

If you have any questions contact me at sueallensimplycraft@bigpond.com.

Thank you for stopping by, now onto the rest of the hop to be inspired, enjoy.

SCRAPPY SUNDAY 29TH MAY, 2022

Back to circles for this weeks Scrappy Sunday card, again very easy.

I cut four circles 1 3/4" circles (dies or punches can be used) in four different Designer Series Paper and attached them to a piece of Soft Succulent card front 4" x 5 6/8" (10cm x 14.6cm) which was then attached t an Even Evergreen card base 5 7/8" x 8 1/4" scored at 4 1/8" (14.9cm x 21cm scored at 10.5cm)

The sentiment I added using dimensionals, with some gold trim beneath and of course a few gems. Don't forget when using gem, jewels etc always use odd numbers.

Ok I'll be back next week, hope you like this and give it a go.

Take care

Cheers
