Rainbow card for Stampin' for All Design Team challenge with video tutorial

Hi everyone,

Yesterday over on the Stampin' for All Facebook group (CLICK HERE if you'd like to join in) it was the lovely Helzie's turn to pose the Monday challenge. And the challenge this week is to use Rainbow Colours. Some of you might know about my love affair with rainbows so I knew I'd have to enter this one.

Here is my card and it makes me so happy - I love it! I love the word dies in the Well Written die set and combining the "happy" repeatedly in rainbow colours makes my heart sing!

Would you like to see how I made my card? I've made a video tutorial for you. You can watch it by CLICKING HERE or on the image below.

                                      

As you'll see I chose different colours for the card I make on the video - lots of pretty blues and greens. 

I think this one could be more suitable for a male recipient.

And if you need the measurements....

Hands Up! Who would like a new Annual Catalogue?

Hi everyone,

I'm sure by now that you already know that on June 4th our brand new Annual Catalogue will be launched to customers for ordering. Before then, from May 2nd, all us demonstrators will be able to order catalogues ready to send out to customers and others who would like one. So today I am asking - would you like me to send you a catalogue? Completely free!! Anyone who has shopped with me over the past 6 mpnths will automatically be on my mailing list but if that is not you, just drop me an email at jilldchapman@gmail.com and I'll add you to the list. 

I am not allowed to show you the inside of the catalogue but I can give you some sneak peeks by showing you some of the display boards from On Stage earlier this month. 

So, do you have any favourites yet? I just love those foiled papers in gorgeous colours in the Noble Peacock Suite. And those dinosaurs are so cute. And then there is the Paper Basics rainbow of patterned papers. And I can't wait to have a play with the Pigment Sprinkles.

So don't forget to let me know if you'd like a catalogue!

Video Tutorial for "Just Because" Paper Pieced Card

Hi everyone,

Yesterday I shared my entry for the InspireINK monthly blog hop which was this card, for which I used the paper piecing technique. 

My colours were chosen as part of a colour challenge and were not my first choice - although once I'd made the card I was quite pleased with how it turned out. But when I cam to remake the card for a video tutorial I decided to change up the colours to some which were more of my choosing. First this one using Mint Macaron, Petal Pink and Grapefruit Grove.

And then this one in the same colours, but used differently.

I'm so sad that these little Bitty Blooms Punches have now sold out and no longer available. If you want to make the card and don't already have them , I'm afraid you'll have to find an alternative!

Anyway here are all three cards together:

I have to say I love revisiting the paper piecing technique. My card was inspired by this one from Karen at KKCardCraft.

If you'd like to see how I made my card, you can watch my video tutorial by CLICKING HERE or on the image below:

                                       

Apologies for the abrupt ending to this video tutorial - camera decide to turn itself off!  I was just going to say all measurements are over on my blog.

So here are the measurements you'll need if you'd like to make one:

METRIC

Card blank - 21cm x 14.8cm (half an A4 sheet), score at 10.5cm

White panel - 9.5cm x 7.5cm

Cardstock mat - 10cm x 8.0cm

Patterned paper panel - 10.5cm x 7.5cm

IMPERIAL
Card blank - 8 1/4 ins x 6 ins, score at 4 1/8 ins

White panel - 9.5cm x 7.5cm

Cardstock mat - 10cm x 8.0cm

Patterned paper panel - 10.5cm x 7.5cm

Hope you'll have a go!

InspireInk April Blog Hop - Colour Challenge

Hello everyone and welcome to our monthly InspireInk blog hop. This month we have been given a colour challenge in the form of a Tic Tac Toe. The idea is to choose a vertical, horizontal or diagonal line and use those colours in our projects. Some interesting combinations in there!

I chose to go with the vertical line on the right hand side - Granny Apple Green, So Saffron and Mossy Meadow. I used the Just Because hostess stamp set and paper pieced the leaves and pots with patterned papers.

The little flowers are punched with the Bitty Bloom Punch pack - sadly now completely sold out and no longer available - I'm so sad about this.

I don't think I would have thought about adding the Mossy Green border unless I was following this colour challenge but I love how it has turned out.

Hope you like it too. Please carry on clicking on the link below to see all the other amazing entries into our Blog Hop.
