Crazy Crafters Blog Hop with Georgia Giguere

I'm back again for another Crazy Crafters Blog Hop.  This week we are CASE-ing (Copy and Selectively Edit) Georgia Giguere and she is also hopping along with us!

The full list of todays lineup is below, so make sure you head on over to the next blog after visiting here so you can see the rest of the amazing creations.

For todays card, I chose to CASE this card of Georgia's.

I have a lot of washi tape but don't find I use it on my projects much so thought this would be the perfect opportunity to use some.  I decided to pair this up with the Tasty Trucks stamp set, which is one of the free Sale-A-Bration items available this year.  And this is the result...

I just love this little truck, and it's perfect for colouring.  I used my Stampin' Write markers to colour directly onto the truck (Sweet Sugarplum, Blushing Bride, Peekaboo Peach, Emerald Envy, Smoky Slate and Basic Black) and then used some of the Playful Palette washi tape.

 
I decided to make a couple of versions of this card to use as my customer thank you cards, so I mounted some onto Blushing Bride cardstock, and others onto Emerald Envy before adhering them to a Whisper White cardbase.

I love how the tape adds another level to the card and I'll definitely be breaking out my rolls of washi tape more often!

Thanks for stopping by.  I hope you've enjoyed the blog hop so far.  Feel free to leave a comment and please check out the rest of the lineup below.  You won't be disappointed!

Crazy Crafters Blog Hop with Shannon Lane

Welcome and thanks for joining us on another Crazy Crafters Blog Hop.  Today we are CASE-ing (Copy and Selectively Edit) Shannon Lane.

I've been following Shannon's work for a while now so it's an amazing privilege to not only be able to CASE one of her creations, but to participate in a blog hop alongside her!

I really hope you enjoy this hop as much as I do. Make sure you take a look at the full lineup below to see what other creations the Crazy Crafters have come up with.

For this hop, I decided to CASE these cards.  I really like the layout and how versatile it is.

I've been wanting to play with the Big on Birthdays stamp set for a while now and thought this would be the perfect opportunity.  The stamp I wanted to use though is quite large so I decided to put my twist on the layout and this is the result.

I stamped the image and flowers using Jet Black StazOn ink and coloured the flowers and leaves using Real Red, Garden Green and Pear Pizzazz Stampin' Write Markers.

I then placed a strip of Real Red cardstock behind the white panel before mounting it onto a Basic Black cardbase.

It's difficult to see in the pictures, but I also stamped an image from the Falling Flowers set onto the cardbase using Versamark.

I really like how this card turned out and will be making a few more in different colours!

I'd love to hear from you so please leave a comment below.  Don't forget to check out the rest of the blog hop.  The full lineup is just below.

Crazy Crafters Blog Hop with Valerie Moody

It's Crazy Crafters Blog Hop time again and today we are
CASE-ing (Copy And Selectively Edit) a project made by the very creative Valerie Moody. 

I'm sure you've seen some fantastic projects already as part of this hop so make sure you check out the rest of the lineup below.

I found it really hard to decide which project to CASE today as Valerie has so many amazing projects.  This is the card that inspired me most though.

   
I really wanted to try out the technique that Valerie used to make this card.  It's so simple and looks lovely!

To make my card, I started with a piece of Whisper White cardstock and stamped my Soft Sky ink pad directly onto it.  I then stamped an image from the gorgeous Beautiful You stamp set over the top of the background.

 
I used a greeting from the same stamp set and then layered the card front onto So Saffron and Smoky Slate cardstock.

This card was so easy and fun to make and I'll definitely be using this technique more often. 

I hope you have enjoyed todays card.  Please take some time to check out the rest of the lineup below.

Crazy Crafters Blog Hop with Sandi MacIver

Welcome to another Crazy Crafters Blog Hop. Today we are CASE-ing (Copy And Selectively Edit) Sandi MacIver and she is hopping along with us!

We hope that you have fun following along with the hop.  There are so many amazing projects to enjoy.  Make sure you check out the full lineup below.

There are so many inspiring projects over on Sandi's page but my inspiration came from this card.  Isn't it gorgeous!

I love the colours that Sandi used and initially I started to design a card using these colours, but this is what I ended up creating.  Something totally different inspired by the layout of Sandi's card.

The background was created using Pacific Point cardstock and the Confetti embossing folder and I used the Layering Ovals Framelits to cut out two different sized ovals, one in Emerald Envy and the other in Whisper White.

The birthday greeting was stamped in Pacific Point, Emerald Envy and Tangerine Tango ink, using stamps from the Cake Crazy stamp set.  I also added some matching stars from the Brights and 2016-2018 In Colour Enamel Shapes.

I used Stampin' Dimensionals to attach both the oval die cuts to the background and then adhered this to a Whisper White card base.
 
I hope you have enjoyed stopping by.  I should add that the colour inspiration for this card came from Case This Card #CTC018 Colour Challenge which I've also entered this card into.

Please make sure you check out the rest of the lineup below.  I’d love to hear from you too so please leave a comment!

Crazy Crafters Blog Hop with Cindy Schuster

Welcome to the Crazy Crafters Blog Hop. Today we are CASE-ing (Copy And Selectively Edit) Cindy Schuster which is an amazing honour. Even better though, is that Cindy is joining us on this hop.

We hope that you enjoy looking through all the stunning projects and find plenty of inspiration.  The full lineup is listed below so be sure to click on the next person in the list to continue on with the blog hop.

The inspiration for my project came from this card of Cindy’s:

And here is my case of Cindy's card:

I usually find inspiration in the layout of a card but this time I was drawn to a few different elements - the plaid patterned paper, the holly stamp background and the pine swag.

For my card I used the same Designer Series Paper Stack that Cindy used, Warmth and Cheer, but chose a red plaid pattern.  As I wanted this to be a main feature, I left the rest of the card relatively simple and instead added some interest by using a round card base of Basic Black and Whisper White cardstock.

For the card front I only added a greeting and my holly/pine swag inspired element, which were some holly die cuts and ‘berries’ left over from the Stitched with Cheer Project Kit.

The greeting was die cut using the ‘merry’ from the Christmas Greetings Thinlits and Whisper White cardstock and the ‘christmas’ from the Holly Jolly Greetings stamp set which I heat embossed using white embossing powder.

I hope you have enjoyed my card.  I’d love to hear what you think so please leave a comment and check out the lineup to see who is up next!

Foxy Friends

It's been a while since I posted anything but I received some new Stampin' Up! products this week and just had to have a play.

The card I made was using the Foxy Friends bundle, which also happens to be the stamp set being spotlighted over at What Will You Stamp.

 
To make this card I used Smoky Slate ink to stamp some of the mushrooms from the Foxy Friends stamp set, and a greeting from the retired Hello stamp set, onto a piece of Whisper White cardstock.   

I attached this to a card base that I made using Calypso Coral cardstock, along with a piece of patterned paper from the A Little Foxy Designer Series Paper Stack.

To mask the join between then patterned paper, and Whisper White cardstock, I used some Smoky Slate Stitched Ribbon.

The fox was stamped using Calypso Coral ink and then punched out using the Fox Builder Punch.  I then attached it to the card using Stampin' Dimensionals.



Thanks for stopping by!

Crazy Crafters Blog Hop with Dena Rekow

Welcome to the Crazy Crafters Blog Hop with special guest Dena Rekow.  I am so excited that we get to CASE (Copy And Selectively Edit) Dena Rekow.  I absolutely love her cards and her videos are awesome.

It was really tough deciding which project to case, there are so many fabulous projects to inspire you, but I finally decided on these split cards.

I'm one of those people that hoard their designer paper, so when I saw these split cards, I knew it'd be the perfect opportunity for me to cut up some of my paper and actually use it!  Stampin' Up! make it so easy too by coordinating their specialty paper and stamp sets.  How much easier can it get!

For my card, I decided to keep the design the same and use the Birthday Bouquet Designer Series Paper and matching Birthday Blooms Stamp Set.

I stamped the flower and then coloured it in with Mint Macaron and Blushing Bride markers before cutting it out with the Tags & Labels Framelits.  I also stamped the flower on the inside of the card.  The card base is Mint Macaron.

I had so much fun making this card, that I couldn't stop at just one!  For the other cards I used Watermelon Wonder and Pool Party cardstock.  The flower on the Watermelon Wonder card was coloured in using Mossy Meadow and Watermelon Wonder markers.  I left the sentiment off these two cards so I can use them at a later date.

Thanks so much for hopping with us.  Please check out the list below to see who's next up in this awesome blog hop.
