    Pressed Petals Washi

    Good Morning! Now I’m wondering what cool new things you have spied in the new Annual Catalogue? Have you noticed the Pressed Petals Washi Tape yet?

    Pressed Petals Washi Tape

    Pressed Petals Washi Tape

    I do love pretty washi tape but these Washi’s are so unique as I havent seen any like this before. One roll has a vintage type tape but the other is a roll of individual petals! The other roll has 1″ petals and 29″ long – approximately 100 petals in total.

    These little petals are perfect for making flowers to decorate your projects with …

    This card was made using the Woven Heirlooms Stamp Set for the sentiment. It lends perfectly to the sweet flowers. I’ve created a single row of 5 petals for this flower.

    You can also position them closer together for a fuller flower …

    This card is the same layout as before just with a few more layers to bring the Rich Razzleberry through. It makes a lovely sympathy card. The flower on this second card uses 8 petals.

    Pressed Petals Washi Tape tips …

    Here’s some tips to help you when using this Washi Tape …

    • punch out a small circle of cardstock to attach your petals to when creating your flowers. It makes it easier to work with than having the sticky washi tape backing
    • use your embossing buddy to remove the ‘stick’ from behind the petals so they dont all stick back to your project (unless this is what you want them to do!
    • once your flower is on your project you can still use dimensionals behind the petals so they dont roll up
    • use tweezers to position your petals for perfect placement

    I hope you have found these tips useful and that you enjoy creating with the Pressed Petals Washi Tape as much as I have making these sweet cards.

    Thanks for stopping by and see you latte ..

    Magnolia Lane Suite

    Good Afternoon and welcome to another Freshly Brewed Projects Blog Hop with the Latte Girls. This week we are creating with the gorgeous new Magnolia Lane Suite.

    Freshly Brewed Projects BLog Hop with the Latte GIrls

    Magnolia Lane Suite

    Oh my gosh … the Magnolia Lane Suite has turned the Stampin’ Up! world crazy and it’s totally understandable as it’s simply gorgeous!

    I had my Magnolia Lane Class last weekend and here’s one of the projects we made ..

    Cut out edged card using the Magnolia Lane Suite by Leonie Schroder Independent Stampin' Up! Demonstrator Australia

    This card gives the earthy natural feel from the different elements in it.

    The Crumb Cake base gives it ‘grounding’ and the new Fluid 100 Watercolour Paper gives the flower texture and allows the colours to blend together perfectly. To add a vintage feel I’ve run the Designer Series Paper piece through with the Subtle Embossing folder for an extra added bit of texture

    I also wanted to use the edgelit that comes in the Magnolia Memory Dies Pack so I cut a piece off the front of the card base and did a little sponging along the edge to define it. I also used my Stampin Write Marker to add a little splatter to the base. The oval from the Stitched Shapes Dies is the perfect fit for the edgelit’s pattern.

    I finished my card off with a piece of the Copper Ribbon in a bow and a couple of pearls.

    I really loved creating with the Good Morning Magnolia Stamp Set as it brought back memories of the gorgeous Magnolia Tree my Mum had at our old house.

    Let’s go hopping …

    Now it’s time to hop around and see what the other Latte Girls have made for you today …

    I do hope you enjoyed the projects included in today’s Blog Hop. Remember to leave a comment for the girls and let them know you stopped by.

    Stamp Set Storage Tip

    Here’s a Stamp Set storage tip I learned last night from the lovely LeeAnn Greff!

    She shared in her Facebook Live Video on how she combines her 2 box Stamp Sets. As you may know some stamp sets, like the Good Morning Magnolia Stamp Set, comes in two boxes.

    Well LeeAnn showed how she combines them and pops them into just one box! Ingenius! So while I listened to her and watched her create some lovely cards I combined my set!

    I popped the two inserts into the sleeve of the one case ….

    and popped all the stamps into the one box and was delighted they all fit!

    Think of all the room I’ll now save and all the extra sets I can now fit in! Winning! Thanks LeeAnn for this wonderful tip!

    Thanks for stopping by and see you latte ..

    Masked Daisy Smile using Daisy Lane by Leonie Schroder Independent Stampin Up Demonstrator Australia

    Good Afternoon and welcome to another Freshly Brewed Projects Blog Hop with the Latte Girls. This week we are creating with the gorgeous new Magnolia Lane Suite.

    Freshly Brewed Projects BLog Hop with the Latte GIrls

    Daisy Lane

    If you know me well you know I love Daisies. When we got to On Stage in April and I saw the Stamp Set in our Event Bags was the new Daisy Lane Stamp Set I was super happy!

    I love the sweet images in this stamp set and the sentiments are pretty sweet too!

    Here’s my card for today ..

    This card is easy to do and perfect if you are new to stamping or just learning.

    Masked Daisy Card How-To

    To create your circle mask simply cut a piece of A4 copy paper in 4 and using the Circle Layering Dies cut one from your copy paper.

    Fold your card base in half and burnish with your Bone Folder. Lay your cut copy paper over your card base. Using a sponge wedge light sponge Balmy Blue ink around the cut out circle then stamp your daisy flowers in Daffodil Delight.

    Remove your copy paper mask and stamp the sentiment in the bottom right of the card base in Balmy Blue.

    Take a length of the Silver Edged Ribbon and tie into a bow.

    Now what if you are an avid stamper, a little more advanced in your stamping, and want to lift that card to the next level? Here’s a card for you …

    Masked Daisy Smile using Daisy Lane by Leonie Schroder Independent Stampin Up Demonstrator Australia

    This is the same card and I’ve simply cut a round stitched frame using the Stitched Shape Dies in Balmy Blue. I’ve adhered it around my Daisies with Multipurpose Adhesive and then just decorated with a few Rhinestone Jewels.

    Just by adding these two extra elements have lifted the card so much and turned it from pretty to wow!

    Let’s go hopping …

    Now it’s time to hop around and see what the other Latte Girls have made for you today …

    I do hope you enjoyed the projects included in today’s Blog Hop. Remember to leave a comment for the girls and let them know you stopped by.

    Faux Watercolor Background with Come Sail Away Bundle by Leonie Schroder Independent Stampin' Up! Demonstrator Australia

    Come Sail Away

    Good Afternoon … I do hope you are enjoying the Long Weekend and managed to squeeze in some crafting time for you! I have a cool card using the Come Sail Away Bundle.

    Come Sail Away

    The Come Sail Away Suite in the new Annual Catalogue (p144-146) is awesome! It’s a great suite to use when creating cards and projects for those men folk.

    Today’s cards are two that we created at one of my recent Tuesday Technique Classes. It does use Gloss Cardstock which is now retired but Photo paper will also work for this technique!

    Faux Watercolor Background with Come Sail Away Bundle by Leonie Schroder Independent Stampin' Up! Demonstrator Australia

    This background is the perfect backdrop for the Lighthouse and boats. However if the skies look like this it’s probably best not to take those small boats out on the water!

    Faux Watercolor Background

    Here’s how to create the background …

    1. Cut a piece of A4 Gloss Cardstock/Photo Paper in 4. Use 2 pieces at a time.
    2. Spritz one piece of cardstock/paper with rubbing Alcohol. Ensure it’s totally covered and wet.
    3. using 2 or 3 different colours drop 2-3 drops of ink from your reinkers onto the cardstock.
    4. Take your 2nd piece of cardstock/photo paper and smoosh on top of the other you placed the ink on then slide off.
    5. Leave your pieces to dry or you can use the heat tool to speed up the drying. Just dont hold your heat tool too close to the cardstock or it could burn.
    Faux Watercolor Background with Come Sail Away Bundle by Leonie Schroder Independent Stampin' Up! Demonstrator Australia

    Once my backgrounds were dry I carefully stamped the birds on and finished my card with the die cut lighthouse and boats. The sentiment is also from the Sailing Home Stamp set and punched out.

    I used some whisper white and navy bakers twine in a knot to finish off my card.

    If you like the Come Sail Away Suite you might like to join me on 7th July for my Full Day Stamp Camp.

    It’s a fun day which includes Lunch, Morning & Afternoon Tea, project kits, tutorials and bag of goodies valued at over $30!

    Quilt Friends using Verdant Garden by Leonie Schroder Independent Stampin' Up! Demonstrator Australia

    Verdant Garden

    Happy Saturday to You! Yay … it’s the weekend but brrr it’s chilly here! Today I have a lovely card to share with you using Verdant Garden Stamp Set.

    Quilt Friends using Verdant Garden by Leonie Schroder Independent Stampin' Up! Demonstrator Australia

    Do you know anyone who Quilts or Stitches? I am sure they will love this card!

    Verdant Garden

    The Verdant Garden Stamp Set is a sweet set that could easily be overlooked as it follows the Magnolia Lane Suite in the catalogue!

    It also has some sweet Designer Series Paper that bundles it up in the Garden Lane Suite.

    Garden Lane Suite

    For today’s card I did create my own ‘patterned paper’ to represent a quilt pattern.

    My pattern is stamped in Pretty Peacock and Soft Sea Foam but you could really do this pattern in any colour combination. Simply start with the darker stamp and then line up the second stamp in the lighter Soft Sea Foam colour. Keep stamping until you have the desired size.

    Quilt Friends using Verdant Garden by Leonie Schroder Independent Stampin' Up! Demonstrator Australia

    Now I stamped a larger panel than I required then cut it down with the Rectangle Stitched Dies. I then layered my piece onto a larger Rectangle Stitched piece in Pretty Peacock (I’m loving that new In Color!)

    The sentiment is a stamp from the Free as a Bird Stamp Set. Now you may notice I’ve only used part of the stamp. You can do this by using your markers to colour just the words you want then stamp as you normally would.

    To finish my card I added a piece of the Scalloped Linen Ribbon in Pretty Peacock with a strip of braided Linen Thread over the top. Then just some pieces of knotted Linen Thread tied around the ribbons. You could quite easily give this card to a guy too!

    The background on my card is done with using the little star image randomly in Soft Sea Foam. I added a little extra interest to my card base by flicking the Soft Sea Foam marker on the background.

    I do hope you like today’s card as much as I did making it!

    Technique – Colour Blocking

    6 June, 2019

    Welcome to another Simple Stamping Techniques Blog Hop. This month we are sharing the Technique Colour Blocking with Cardstock.

    Simple Stamping Techniques International Blog Hop

    Colour Blocking with Cardstock

    I do love colour blocking and it’s a great way to try colour combinations and use up all those offcuts of cardstock!

    For today’s card I wanted something bright and fun so I started with going through my scraps/offcuts. My colour combination today is Flirty Flamingo, Seaside Spray, So Saffron and Highland Heather.

    Colour Blocking with Cardstock using Daisy Lane Stamp Set by Leonie Schroder Independent Stampin' Up! Demonstrator Australia

    I did add some Soft Sea Foam for the card base and Granny Apple Green for behind my sentiment. Putting my blocks onto the black layer makes them pop!

    I chose a different stamp from the Daisy Lane Stamp Set for each block and stamped in the same colour as the cardstock. If you dont have a lot of ink pads you could use Versamark on each piece of cardstock to give the same watermark look.

    The Colour Blocking with Cardstock technique is lots of fun and depending on what colours you have you can get all sorts of wondering looks or themes with it!

    My sentiment is stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black and punched with the 1 3/8″ Circle Punch then layered on a piece of Granny Apple Green punched with the Pretty Label Punch.

    I think this bright card is what is needed during weather like we’ve had here in Sydney the last few days – cold, dreary and wet.

    Let’s go hopping …

    It’s time to go on the blog hop with the Simple Stamping Techniques Design Team …

    I do hope you enjoyed the Blog Hop. As you can see there is so much you can do with your cardstock and some creative Colour Blocking! I’d love to see what you create so be sure to share it and let me know!

    Here for You using Artfully Aware by Leonie Schroder Independent Stampin' Up! Demonstrator Australia

    Good Afternoon and welcome to another Freshly Brewed Projects Blog Hop with the Latte Girls. This week we are creating with the gorgeous new Magnolia Lane Suite.

    Freshly Brewed Projects BLog Hop with the Latte GIrls

    Artfully Aware

    This past weekend I hosted my first Biggest Morning Tea. It’s a fundraiser for the Cancer Council here in Australia. It’s one of the biggest fundraising events held in Australia each year.

    You can read more about Australia’s Biggest Morning Tea and the work they do here

    So for my event we had lots of treats, sweet, savory and some for those watching their weight. Then I also had a table set up to make some cards. The ladies made cards to take home plus a couple to donate to our local Cancer Treatment Centre.

    Here are the cards ….

    Love & Hugs using Ribbon of Courage by Leonie Schroder Independent Stampin' Up! Demonstrator Australia
    Together using Artfully Aware by Leonie Schroder Independent Stampin' Up! Demonstrator Australia

    The stamp sets we used were Artfully Aware and Ribbon of Courage.


    Artfully Aware Cling Stamp Set
    [149447]
    Ribbon Of Courage Clear-Mount Stamp Set
    [143855]

    As not all the ladies attending were crafters I made the cards easy to recreate for those who hadnt stamped before. Plus one card coloured with Stampin Blends for those who regularly stamp or craft with me.

    Sadly, the Ribbon of Courage Stamp Set has now retired but the Artfully Aware is still available. Both these sets were designed in collaboration with two Demonstrators as a reward for achieving $1,000,000 in sales! What a huge achievement and what hearts they have to create sets such as these!

    I had made up 80 card kits to make on the day and these were finished off at Tuesday’s Technique Class with a little help from two of my customers. I now have a bundle of 80 cards to go up to the Cancer Treatment Centre.

    Doing this is just one small way of helping those in need, those going through this horrid disease, and those supporting them. Also the funds going to the Cancer Council are used in research and support programs.

    If you would like to donate to my event you still can and if you are located in Australia all donations of $2 or more are Tax Deductible.

    Let’s go hopping …

    Now it’s time to hop around and see what the other Latte Girls have made for you today …

    I do hope you enjoyed the projects included in today’s Blog Hop. Remember to leave a comment for the girls and let them know you stopped by.

    Good Afternoon .. things are all systems go in preparations for my Biggest Morning Tea here on Sunday. So thought I’d take a break and share with you a sweet card from last weekend’s Catalogue Launch using A Little Lace

    Daisy Lace using A Little Lace Stamp Set by Leonie Schroder Independent Stampin' Up! Demonstrator Australia

    A Little Lace

    A Little Lace is a sweet little stamp set coming in the new Annual Catalogue. It has 10 sweet stamps in this set and some are a little fun!

    I think some of our designers must have a great sense of humour when you have sentiments like ‘You’ll always be my friend …’ to which you can add ‘you know too much’ too! For today’s card I went with the lovely ‘you mean everything to me’

    Daisy Lace using A Little Lace Stamp Set by Leonie Schroder Independent Stampin' Up! Demonstrator Australia

    My card is created using one of our Notecards and Envelopes.

    You can make it …

    You will need ….

    Steps …

    1. Cut a 2cm (3/4″) strip off the front of the notecard.
    2. Cut a 2.5cm strip (1″) strip from the Navy Striped patterned paper from the Come Sail Away Designer series Paper pack and adhere to inside of note card.
    3. Stamp your Flower image in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink onto front of Note Card with the smaller daisy/flower over the edge. Stamp this same image onto a piece of Whisper White Cardstock and also onto the envelope.
    4. Colour the image on the Whisper White piece with Stampin’ Blends Markers. Cut out the main flowers with Paper Snips and adhere to card front lining it up with the stamped image. The medium flower should over hang the edge.
    5. Stamp Sentiment on top left
    6. Adhere Faceted Gems over flower centres.

    How’s that for a fun and easy card? I know you will love this set as much as I do and be sure to contact me to place your order come Tuesday 4th June!

    Just so you know ….

    Some of our staple crafting products will have a slight increase in prices with the start of the new Catalogue. However, you can stock up now and beat the price rise! Items like ink pads, cardstock, Stampin’ Mist, Note Cards & envelopes.

    Hello Birds with Free as a Bird for Freshly Brewed Projects with the Latte Girls

    A little Sneak Peek

    29 May, 2019
    /
    2 Comments

    Good Afternoon and welcome to another Freshly Brewed Projects Blog Hop with the Latte Girls. This week we are creating with the gorgeous new Magnolia Lane Suite.

    Freshly Brewed Projects BLog Hop with the Latte GIrls

    A Litte Sneak Peek

    I am sure you are a little like me and when there’s news of a new Annual Catalogue we all want to have a little sneak peek to see what might be coming. It’s all very exciting and a great time to be a Demonstrator as we can order some items early!

    For my project today I’ve used the lovely Free as a Bird Stamp Set along with the Stitched Lace Dies and a little water coloring to create this card …

    I am loving this Stitched Lace Die. You can do full card panels, borders and all sort of accents! My border is two rows of the lace pattern. I cut a full panel then used the edgelit to cut it down. I got two pieces/borders from one quarter sheet.

    I’ll tell you a little story about this card. When I was creating it I figured I’ll stamp and colour the images then cut them out with the Die cuts that come with this set. Then when it was time to cut I realised the dies were stitched labels and not birds and flowers. After a little giggle at myself I figured a little fussy cutting can be therapeutic!

    My card also has some water coloring. The images are stamped in Jet Black Stazon then water coloured with the Aqua Painter and the ink from our Classic Ink Pads.

    Hello with Free as a Bird for a little Sneak Peek by Leonie Scrhoder Independent Stampin' Up! Demonstrator Australia

    My birds are coloured with Soft Suede on the wings and top on their head. Then Rococo Rose around the edge of the body then Flirty Flamingo and So Saffron in the centre. The branch is done in Soft Suede and I used Mossy Meadow for the Leaves. The flowers are coloured with Rococo Rose.

    To complete my card I’ve added some of the Petal Pink Ordandy Striped Ribbon and used my Flirty Flamingo Stampin’ Write Marker to create some splatter to the card base.

    The sentiment is stamped in Jet Black Stazon ink and punched out with the Classic Label Punch.

    Let’s go hopping …

    Now it’s time to hop around and see what the other Latte Girls have made for you today …

    I do hope you enjoyed the projects included in today’s Blog Hop. Remember to leave a comment for the girls and let them know you stopped by.

    Now while the ladies were making up their cards this week I created some alernative cards to share with them – and you …

    I do hope you like the extra’s designs I created.

    Now if you’d like to get this Paper Pumpkin Kit you’ll need to act quick as it’s only available during the month of May. The kit is $37 plus postage and would make a great gift for anyone crafty. The only extra things they’d need would be a pair of snips, an acrylic block and some adhesive like Snail or Multipurpose Glue. Purchase the Kit from me via my Online store and I’ll send you a pack of Pearls for free! They are the perfect accesory to step up your cards!
