Vintage Blue
Being so hot here in Perth today, I stayed indoors and played at my craft table. These are the three cards that I made along the same theme, using the "Shop Around" Stampin' Wheel, the some new goodies from the new Occasions Catalogue.

Tea Lace Doily Fan
I have been playing around today making little flowers and folding the Tea Lace Doilies various ways to see how I could use them on my cards. My card is designed around the fan I made using the doily, little flowers and pearls. The tassel was made from the white bakers twine.

Handmade Flowers ...
Just a quick post today for the challenge at the Deconstructed Sketch based on this great sketch.
I have been playing around making flowers using one of the new In-colours for 2013-15, Baked Brown Sugar and an old favourite Naturals Ivory along with the 7/8" scallop circle punch and the Blossom Party Originals Die. Naturally I just had to create something with them, so I decided to use them on my card to create a little flower posy.
The second card I made for the fun of it.

Sahara Sand ...
In a recent edition of Australian Cardmaking Stamping & Papercraft there were a series of 10 Quick Cards made by Julie Dudley show casing the Stampin' Up Decorative Labels Punch.
Julie's cards were made with non Stampin' Up DSP and cardstock, however I really liked what Julie had done with the Decorative Label punch in the design of her cards so I put my spin on it and created these three cards.
On two of the cards I stamped the Very Vintage and Music Notes Stampin' Wheel using Sahara Sand ink on Naturals White cardstock. For the other card I stamped the Music Notes Stampin' Wheel and the Leaf/Branch stamp from the Summer Silhouettes stamp set using Sahara Sand ink on Naturals White cardstock. I did stamp off some of the ink to give the stamped image a muted tone.
The DSP is Sahara Sand from the Neutrals Paper Stack with the little flowers made using the 7/8" scallop punch. I punched out 5 scallop circles, misted them with water, layered them together and put a hole through the centre and using a brad joined together. The layers were then lightly scrunched up towards the middle and then teased out until you are happy with the shape of your flower.
Once dry the flowers are used to create the posy on the Decorative Labels punched out piece. The leaves were made using Old Olive ink and the Stippled Blossoms stamp set. Sentiments are from the Itty Bitty Banners Stamp Set and the matching Bitty Banners Framelits. A linen thread with a neutrals button added to finish the card. All the edges of the cardstock and DSP have been inked with Sahara Sand.

Water Colour Crayons
I have been playing with my Stampin' Up Water Colour Crayons and these are the cards that I have made.
The first three cards are all the same colour sequence, using different background stamps, sentiments from the same set "Cross My Heart" in the new Seasonal Catalogue. The embellishments on each card are also similar. I have made this set for my next card class where we will be doing some basic backgrounds with the Water Colour Crayons. I have quite a few ladies new to card making, so I am doing some very basic techniques to start with.
I have used Naturals Ivory as the base card and also for the piece that I did the Water Colour Crayons effect on. I tried this to see how it went instead of the Water Colour Paper, and it worked okay so long as you do not put too much water on. Also the blending is not as great as on Water Colour Paper, but with all the stamping etc on the piece you do not notice the imperfections in the blending.
I started by tearing two strips of the First Edition Specialty Paper and sticking this on the Naturals Ivory cardstock. When these were dry I put my colours over the top. The colours used on the first three cards are Regal Rose, Soft Suede and Crumb Cake which were randomly coloured over the piece with my paint brush and water. I dried the pieces off with a heat gun to speed up the drying time (I am impatient). I then used the Very Vintage Stampin' Wheel and Soft Suede ink to create the base background for the stamps, I then chose the stamps that I liked and stamped these in Basic Black on the piece. The sentiments were hand cut and adhered using dimensionals. The posy was made using linen thread, paper flowers from the Artisan Embellishment Kit, Crochet Trim and Tea Time Trinkets. On the I Love You card, instead of the Crochet Trim I used two hearts made using the Full Heart Punch and the Scalloped Heart of Hearts Embosslit die, I then inked them in Soft Suede . The edges of the centre pieces of all the cards were also inked with Soft Suede to give them a vintage feel.
This next card was made the same way but using the Water Colour Crayons Daffodil Delight and Elegant Eggplant. I first stamped the image with Daffodil Delight and I then stamped over this with the Elegant Eggplant. You can see the effect of the First Edition Specialy DSP on this card better than the previous cards. The stamp set used on this card is "Just Believe" and the sentiment was punched out using the Word Window Punch.

The final card was also made in the same way, however I used Soft Suede, Cajun Craze and Crumb Cake Water Colour Crayons and instead of randomly colouring I did the colour in stripes. The background on this card was stamped using a piece of bubble wrap (I just had to try this after seeing it in a magazine). I was trying to make a masculine card, but the Cajun Craze came out a bit on the pink side, but I went with it anyway. The sentiment is from the "Itty Bitty Banners" stamp set and cut out using the Bitty Banners Framelits. The circle piece was made using the 2 1/2" circle punch and the 3" circle originals die. The stamps used on this are from "Clockworks" and "Need for Speed" stamps sets.

Just Add Black and White and ONE other colour of our choice is the challenge this week at Just Add Ink. I have chosen Basic Grey as my other colour.
The sentiment is from the stamp set "Sincere Salutations" and the "Very Vintage" Jumbo Stampin' Wheel was used to create the black on white patterned paper. The DSP is from the Neutrals Paper Stack.
