BABY CARDS

Baby Cards made using the beautiful Fable Friends Stamp Set as well as the Wildly Happy stamp set.

Sailing Home Bundle

Hi everyone!!  Hope you are all well!! 

Today I want to share with you another one of the cards I made at our stamp camp a few weeks ago.  

This fold is called a tri-fold layout, which is such a versatile layout and can be adapted with so many different DSP's and you can embellish the front panel with all sorts of different cutouts.  

For this card, I used the amazing new bundle called Sailing Home as well as the beautiful coordinating DSP, which is all available in the new catalogue that went live this week.   If you want to browse the new catalogue you can by clicking the catalogue button at the top of my blog.

Perennial Essence

Hi everyone!!  Hope everyone had a lovely weekend.  This past weekend I went to a stamping retreat with some wonderful friends and we had so much fun. There were lots of laughs had and a lot of creativity happened.   

This is one of the cards that I created.  

It's the first time that I have used the Double Z fold to make a card and I am so happy with the outcome.  It took me a while to figure out the measurements but I did eventually get it right.

I used the beautiful new DSP called Perennial Essence matted onto petal pink and old olive cardstock as well as the Perennial Essence Vellum to make the flower using the matching punch.  

This amazing suite is available to buy from the 4th of June!!  So put the date in your calendar!!

LIFT ME UP

This month Stampin' Up! has given us the challenge to make a card with one of our favourite retiring stamp sets to give it a great send off.

The card has to be a simple stamping card which means that we can only use stamps, ink and papers........ NO BIG SHOT!!!!!!.......OMG,  IT'S A LOT HARDER THAN YOU THINK!!!  For an avid stamper like myself, it is sometimes very hard to just make a simple card without using all the great gadgets available,  I would usually use a die to cut the square as well as the sentiment.

The card can be for any occasion, so I decided to make a birthday card using the Lift me Up stamp set and Carried Away designer series paper. When the card is done then you must share it on social media.

So go ahead stampers try this out and share share share to your social media and add the hastags #simplestamping and #cardsbyconcetta

HAPPY STAMPING!!

Sailing Home

So when my goodies arrived I said to a friend I am not going to touch all my new goodies until our stamp camp (two days away to craft till we drop) in two weeks time.   Well, that lasted about half a day and I just could not resist having a little play.......hahahahahaha!!

So here is my first play with the awesome Sailing Home suite!! 

The first thing to do is cut all your DSP so its all ready to make cards!!  #loveitchopit   

When cutting the DSP I cut one sheet ready to make horizontal cards and one sheet to make vertical cards.  

For these cards, I used thick whisper white cardstock as the base and night of navy as the second layer finishing off with the beautiful DSP.  The boat was stamped in night of navy and the anchor and lighthouse in soft suede.  The baker's twine was used to hold the anchor.  

These new beautiful stamp sets, dies, DSP and bakers twine will all be available to customers to buy from the beginning of June 2019.  

But remember that there are some great items on the clearance rack and there are a lot of items retiring, so if there is anything that you really want to buy it soon.

For anyone in Australia shopping with me, if you spend $100 or more over this month, I will send you a free catalogue at the beginning of June.

Happy Stamping!!
