Flowing Flowers | Dahlia Days I I Love You | All Together | Blog Hop

Hello & welcome to our Positive Inkers Global Design Team blog hop! We're demonstrators from around the globe that hop on the 1st of each month and this month we're celebrating Sale-a-bration & the Mini Catalogue!

Here's my finished card!

Although I don't have a green thumb, I love flowers of all kinds and my card features 2 stamp sets - Flowering Flowers & Dahlia Days from Stampin' Up! The white Artistic die cut piece also has flowers. I'm clearly looking forward to spring!

Be sure to watch my Video Tutorial further down in this post for all the details & measurements.

You can get your hands on the newly released All Together 6 x 6 DSP as of today! I absolutely love patterned black & white paper and this paper does not disappoint! For an extra special touch, I cut the DSP using my Borders Dies. Love the hearts on the paper!

Both the Flowing Flowers & Dahlia Days have beautiful sentiments, however with Valentine's Day just around the corner, I chose a beautiful sentiment from the Happy & Heartfelt set!

Gorgeous finishing touches: Rhinestones and Silver trim.

TIP: Fray the ends of the trim for extra sparkle!

Artfully Layered | Sending All the Hugs | Blog Hop

Welcome Crafty Friends to my blog! It's the 15th of the month and time for our blog hop! I love our theme - it's love!

Here's my finished card.

I'm excited to create with the Artfully Composed Suite from our new Mini catalogue! It was at the top of my must-have list. I love the tropical greenery and the fabulous fonts & greetings!

I'm certain you'll love the DSP as much as me! You can cut the paper down to card front size for backgrounds, strips, layers, or paper elements. For extra artistry, fussy-cut leaves to collage and layer!

This is the card I'll be making during my Jan 18th live at 8pm EST. If you want to watch my video live, you'll find me HERE.

To decorate the inside of my card, I cut a strip of the Artfully Composed DSP and from the Tropical Layers dies, cut leaves.....which I look like hearts to me.

Nuts & Bolts | You Make My Heart Go Beep | Mini Catalogue

Hi my crafty friends and welcome to a super fun post featuring a brand new stamp set called Nuts & Bolt! It's from the Jan-June Mini Catalogue! My video tutorial with addtional cards is further down in this post.

Here's my card...

So cute and easy to make! Colouring the robots was so quick and by mixing two colours of Stampin' Blends. Now don't let that scare you, it's really easy! I used Ivory & Gray Granite for the robot and Poppy Parade & Cherry Cobbler Blends.
