Handmade Thank You Cards

stitched greenery die and friendly hello stamp set for thank you card

Just a quick post to share a thank you card. I have so much to be thankful for and in a world full of so much turmoil right now something bright and cheerful is always welcome.

I'm grateful for all my lovely blog and social media supporters and so consider this a card for each of you.

I love my new Stitched Greenery die which I used to create the first step of this card. Once used on a white piece of card I used blending brushes and 3 shades of green ink to add an ombre effect before clapping yes clapping some water over the piece to do some faux bleeching. Clapping gives you random splatters and you can leave them for a few seconds before blotting off the larger spots with kitchen towel.

The flowers are from the Friendly Hello free stamp set when you spend £90 this month on Stampin' Up! goodies. I stamped several and fussy cut them to create a little bit of a decoupage effect and I've add a bold die cut thanks which has two layers one background of vellum and then the bold Magenta Madness on top.

Magenta Madness along with the base card colour of Bumblebee will retire very soon along with the other three 2020-2022 in colours so be sure not to miss out on supplies of these if they are your favourite.

I'm sharing this card in the TGIF Challenge this week which is to share makes using the Stampin' Up! saleabration products. You can join in too!

Have a great day

New at SU blog hop - Friendly Hello Saleabration Stampin' Up!

new to su blog hop with zoe tant uk stampin up demo

Hi and welcome to my first time in the New at SU blog hop with fellow global demonstrators. We are sharing new products, stamps and designs with you on a monthly basis and this month it is a big share of lots of Saleabration ideas for you to enjoy. You've arrived from Anke's blog. I love her project, don't you!

If you haven't been to my blog before, I'm Zoe a Stampin' Up! demonstrator based in the UK in Lincolnshire. Welcome to my blog and please do say hi in the comments below each time you visit and tell me if you like the new stamp set, dies or colours. Don't forget to go through the hop to see all the other fabulous inspiration on offer with all the other hop members.

Today my share is a card made using the Level Two Saleabration reward called Friendly Hello which includes a beautiful stamp set and some very pretty coordinating papers. I've also used the Sunshine and Rainbow Papers to stamp on for the flowers and leaves.

I started my design by using one of the annual Stampin' Up! catalogue masks to create the background and belly band by adding Bermuda Bay ink to first white card and then tone on tone onto Bermuda Bay.

I embossed the flowers and stamped leaves on to the rainbow papers and also stamped some leaves directly onto my stencilled/masked background. I've fussy cut the flowers and additional leaves and adhered them to my card before adding the belly band and stamped sentiment.

It's an easy card to do but might take a little time, but you could use lots of different colour combos to make it suit your recipient.
