Tart & Tangy cards by Olivia

Please scroll down to see all new posts.

This is my new blog. It's a place for sharing and gaining inspiration from lots of other people. Stampin'Up!'s strapline is INPIRE CREATE SHARE and this is where you can gain from the sharing of others and feel inspired to create your own projects that you can then share with us.
It's only right that I dedicate this first post to my little demonstrator in waiting Olivia. When she grows up she wants to be a mummy, actress, chef and Stampin'Up! demonstrator. I'm not sure where she'll find the time, but you have to have a dream and as I often say to her 'Believe in yourself and magic will happen!'

We're looking forward to sharing your creations for our inspiraton!

What a pretty card from Abi. She's used one of our fab wheels Baroque Border to frame this lovely card and retired hostess set Oh So Lovely. Her ribbon is also from retired ribbon bundle Fairytale.

Claire was challenged at work to make her diary look more attractive than just navy blue. She used the navy to act as a frame to these great seasonal pictures. She used the retired Washington Apple Designer Series Paper and a collection of stamps to showcase Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter. She also used her free ribbon from the September promotion in So Saffron to add tabs to identify the start of each month.
You don't just have to make cards!!!

A celebratory card from Claire who used Cheers to you and the Sellabration Set
Congrats. She used punches to punch out matching circles of cardstock to continue the 'Fizz' theme.

This is another from Becky. Choc chip, old olive, rose red, perfect plum and so saffron cardstock for a great colour combo. The Whimsy wheel has created a lovely, but subtle background and the Polka Punches retired Sellabration set is beautifully embossed for the main image.

Here's one from my Mum. She used retired Level 2 hostess set Garden Silhouette, sellabration set Congratulations and the butterfly is from Touch of Nature which shows off how useful the Many Marvellous Markers are for blending different colours.

Becky has used the scallop circle, boho blossoms & circle punch for this pretty card. She embossed the stem & leaves and added some texture with layering and brads.

Maria's Pocket Silhouettes card with Kraft paper from her free hostess gift!
Pretty bashful blue ribbon gives the finishing flourish.

Ally's very pretty interpretation of the So Swirly wheel.
A simple but elegant thank you note!
