INKspired Sketch Blog Hop 35 - A Surprise!

Hi Everyone 
and welcome to our INKspired Blog hop number 35.
You may have joined the hop here so welcome or you may have hopped 
across from the delightful Narelle
can't wait to see what she makes this fortnight!

Here is the sketch Teneale has given us....
Well it was a surprise because I didn't know what 
to make....
and I ended up making two cards as I wasn't happy with 
the first one.

I wanted to use Rose Red cardstock as the base
and had to use the lovely Love Blossoms Designer Series Paper Stack
The picture above shows the crumbcake DSP
It was the oval I was having the block on!
I layered the DSP onto a smaller piece of Rose Red and attached a
piece of the Venetian Crochet Trim
over the DSP.
I rarely use the Garden Green ink for my cards
BUT it was one of the colours on the front of the
DSP paperstack - Love how Stampin' Up! put the colours on!
I cut my Whisper White oval out and sponged around the edge with Rose Red
Stamped the leaves from Grateful Bunch Stampset
onto the oval and stamped the set of three flowers
from same set in Rose Red, Blushing Bride and Daffodil Delight
and punched them out with the Blossom Bunch Punch (So easy).

Placed dimensionals under the oval and then used mini glue dots to adhere my flowers with.
I used the words Wish Big from the
A Dozen Thoughts stampset
On one card you will see that I used
Pearls for the flower centres instead of one at each end of the oval (perhaps I am a Rebel!)
and for the other card used the gorgeous 

It's My Party Enamel Dots on the flowers of course!
Below I have a picture of them together
Let me know which card you like....

Some old fashioned Red Roses that have the most beautiful perfume.
Thank you for stopping by

Now it is onto the wonderful Barbara and I am not guessing what she has 
made this week
but I do know it will be beautiful

Stampin' Up! On Stage Melbourne - Reason for the Season

Hi Everyone
On saturday (14th November) I was enjoying the first Stampin' Up! OnStage event which was fantastitic. I went to Melbourne but you could have gone to any of the venues around the world. There was only Melbourne or Perth in Australia.
Sat at a table with a group of delightful women from SA and we had fun making what was demonstrated and took lots of pictures. Thank you for a great day.
The delightful Joy Smelt was making tags for the NES (New Elite Stampers) team
and I felt I needed to make a card for her and then a few swaps....
So on thursday night sick as I was (had already cancelled a cardclass)
started cutting and figured that I could put them together on 
friday night in Melbourne!!
I decided to cut the flower out and stick it onto a basic black wreath cut using Wonderful Wreath framelits.
Stamped with the new  basic black archival ink.
I used the ponsettia from the Reason for the Season stamp set which  I stamped on whisper white cardstock in the basic black archival ink and then used the rose red ink for the flowers and Pear Pizzazz ink for the leaves. I used the Daffodil Delight marker to colour in the centre of the flower.
I used Rose Red card stock as the base for the card front and stamped the words in the bottom right hand corner . In the picture below I have added it to a Whisper White main card  - a quick card except for the fussy cutting!

Now I am going to show you a few of the swaps I received. Unfortunately a few did not have any names attached to them so in that case I have typed unknown. If you know who made it leave their name in the comment section below.




I will put a few more up with some photos from the day next time.
I hope you have enjoyed these

INKspired Sketch Blog Hop 29 -


Hi Everyone, thanks for joining us on our next hop - #INK029.
You may have hopped across 
from Narelle Macey and I can't wait to see her gorgeous creation.
Just a quick pic of one of our baby kangaroos who has had to make way for a new baby so is not allowed back in the pouch (he keeps trying,lol) but mum is keeping him close.
She then hopped around the corner of the neighbours fence, sorry about the pic but she wouldn't let us get any closer. Now onto the sketch!


Teneale (my amazing upline) has given us
 a fantastic sketch this fortnight,love it.



Here is what I decided to do
Love two step stampin'
so chose the beautiful Reason for the Season stamp set.
I wanted a different shape sitting behind the flower so cut a wreath using the
Wonderful Wreath Framelits from
Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper.
Blushing Bride is the main card and used a second layer
embossed using the Lucky Stars Textured Embossing Folder.
Stamped the flower using the new Basic Black Archival Stampin' pad as I was thinking of water colouring BUT changed my mind and then used Rose Red for the flower with Pear Pizzazz ink for the leaves. 
A girl can change her mind....right!
I used the Multipurpose glue to stick the flower to the Glimmer wreath
and then used dimensionals to pop it up.

I also remembered to take a picture of the inside


Now it is onto
Kabrina to see what she has made for us

INKspired Sketch Blog Hop 9 -

Baby & Mum & another baby in her pouch
Hello and welcome to my blog for 2015. 

Hope you had a safe and happy christmas and new year. You may have hopped across from the lovely Louise Sharp. Thank you for joining our blog hop and please  take the time to hop around and see all the wonderful cards that have been made by these talented women.
I thought I would start off with a pic of the kangaroos that are to be found close to our house most days - we haven't seen the baby in the pouch yet! A few more pics at the end.

Here is the sketch that Teneale has given us to start 2015 off  with, looks simple but...... I was finding it hard to choose a stampset to go with it. 
Had the colour palette in mind but too many new stamps to choose from...
Perhaps another rum ball will help..love christmas n all the treats that are made.


Now where to start......Decided against a stampset. 
Instead used the beautiful DSP - Painted Bloom from the new Occasions catalogue, together with the new embossing folder Spring Flowers. Cut squares of DSP 3.2cm and sponged them with rose red ink and attached to squares of rose red cardstock 3.5cm that were sponged as well, then popped them up on the card with some dimensionals.


Thank you for stopping by. 

It is now onto the lovely Narelle Macey


I think they have had an argument! Front view of mum's big pouch

Baby now staying close to mum
