Silver and Gold BLING IT UP for June's Lets Craft Together Blog Hop

 Welcome back to another Let's Craft Together Blog Hop! I have been MIA lately. Its been a busier than expected 2025, but I'm back now and ready to get crafty again. This months theme is BLING IT UP! Looking around my stash - which is pretty thin and empty at the moment, I struggled to think of what I would create to represent this theme.

I have created this Silver and Gold Floating Strip card, let me show you how to make it.

If you look closely you'll see both silver and gold foil sheet strips which are cut at 1/4" and 3/4" in width. The wider strips I dry embossed with the WAVES 3d emboss folder. 

How great does the embossed parts look? 

Your project will start here - laying out all the strips, adhere the thin ones so you can emboss the others and easily slide the back into place. 

Cut off any excess. 

To make it 'float' - add foam dimensionals on the thicker strips and adhere directly to your white card base.

I'm loving the embossed effect, it really pops!

Some simple stamping on the inside and a gold embossed leaf to match the front

This stamp set was easy to use, easy to fussy cut and great for embossing in Silver and Gold too.

Its a Colour Challenge with Lets Craft Together Blog Hop

Welcome back to another Let's Craft Together Blog Hop! This months theme is a COLOUR CHALLENGE.

I have created a my own DSP like background using 3 of the challenge colours.

Here's the challenge picture

The hero of this card has to be the goose holding the ‘thanks’ banner however the real highlight in creating this project is the background panel. Lets take a closer look…

I used the ‘blotch’ image from ‘Artistically Inked’ and stamped it in different colours to create an interesting background. I finished the look with a 2-1/2” square to show off this cute goose! The little flowers come from Sweet Citrus Hybrid set & I added a silver rhinestone to bling them up.

I carried through the colours to the inside. 

Here’s my choice of colour combination

Picture Inspiration with Lets Craft Together Blog Hop

Welcome back to another Let's Craft Together Blog Hop! This months theme is a PICTURE INSPIRATION.

I have created this awesome multi panel card.

Here's the challenge picture

Lets take a closer look at this card.

Here’s a quick video showing the process

I took inspiration from the colours and 3 panels in the inspiration picture. 

I stamped across all 3 panels at the same time to get that continuous image, adhering them down is then super easy.

Bright and cheerful and so very Aussie don’t you think? Looks very wattle tree like.

In The Moment with Let’s Craft Together Blog Hop

Today is my very first blog hop with the Let's Craft Together Design team! We are collection of Australian Crafters coming together once a month to share our projects with you. This months theme is a super cool TIC TAC TOE challenge. Be sure to continue to hop through all the other amazing projects and blogs. 

Shh its my mums birthday soon so I have created a Birthday Easel Card using some new and existing products from the Annual Catalogue.

Here's the challenge picture...I've gone diagonally thru the middle with BIRTHDAY/DSP/EASEL CARD

Lets take a closer look at this card. Here are some of the colours and products Ive used.

I have always loved to personalise my cards and using the Alphabest Stamp and punch makes this so easy. Now I can create any name, phrase or sentiment I want. 

Decorating the inside is just a must.. you'll notice a quick outfit change on the inside. To create this look stamp your image onto different cardstock and fussy cut the pieces you want to use. You could create a mixed wardrobe of hats and dresses!

Loving the warm deep tones in this colour combo
