RemARKable Stamp of the Month Blog Tour - Secret Garden!!!

Welcome to the RemARKable Stamp of the Month Blog Tour.  This month some of our most talented RemARKable teammates are showing you many different ways to use the Secret Garden stamp set from the Stampin' Up! Spring Catalog. 


If you haven't already heard, Stampin' Up! is going through a "Color Refresh."  Several colors are retiring:  Regal Rose, Pretty in Pink, Bashful Blue, Certainly Celery, Baja Breeze, Riding Hood Red, Bravo Burgundy, Not Quite Navy, More Mustard and River Rock.

Colors that are being added back into the four color families are: Bermuda Bay, Calypso Coral, Wistera Wonder, Pear Pizzazz, Soft Sky, Pool Party, Blushing Bride, Crushed Curry and Island Indigo.  We'll also be seeing a new color in late April called Smoky Slate.

With the recent announcement of the Color Refresh, I thought I'd center this month's projects around "the old and the new."  Here's my first creation:

This is a very simple card using River Rock and Not Quite Navy.  I matted the smallest Labels framelit using this technique.

Here's my second creation using Island Indigo, Calypso Coral, and Pool Party.  I'm so excited that these three colors will be staying around for a while!


I stamped the flowers on Shimmery White card stock using StazOn, then I colored them with markers and cut them out with my Big Shot.  I created the background paper using the Netting background stamp.  I really love that stamp, so I hope it stays around in the next catalog.

You can see better in this close-up how I hand cut another layer of the center of the flowers.

RemARKable Stamp of the Month Blog Tour - Collage Curios



Welcome to the RemARKable Stamp of the Month Blog Tour.  This month some of our most talented RemARKable teammates are showing you many different ways to use the Collage Curios stamp set.   I  chose to pair both of my creations with the Print Poetry paper stack.

I think the inside of this card might just reveal a vacation invitation!

A sample on Pinterest gave me the inspiration for this next card.


Some of the patterns in the Print Poetry stack seem kinda "busy" to me.  Here, I demonstrate how you can add just a bit of designer paper to get a really fun look.  I flattened the Soda Pop Top with my Big Shot.  There are many variations that explain how to do it.  I chose to place my Soda Pop Top between two acrylic plates, place the plates onto the multipurpose platform (with all tabs closed), then run it through my Big Shot.

In both of these creations, I used only Crumb Cake and Midnight Muse inks, yet I created two completely different looks.  Hope you enjoyed them.  Leave me a comment and let me know what you think.
