Series 4 Card Chain Swap – following Genna’s card

Welcome to the eighth card in the fourth series of our Card Swap Chain. A group of Australian Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators formed a team to create cards and swap them in a process like a chain letter. The first card in each sequence is an original idea. For this blog hop, it was time for […]
Stepped triple Z-fold card

Welcome to my post in the Fun/Fancy Fold Blog Hop for October. I have created a Z-fold card with a difference – I’ve made it a triple! The card base and front sections were easy to work out, the middle section took me a bit longer but I’m really happy with how it turned out. […]
Bright Colour Challenge using Mixed Florals

Welcome to the Stamping Green. Today, I am participating in the Ink & Inspiration Blog Hop, with a Colour Challenge full of bright colours. This is the prompt we were given. I love these bright colours! While the photo mentions Summer Time, it’s still winter here in Australia so I’m looking forward to Spring – […]
Pretty Florals done with new In colours

Welcome to the Stamping Green. This month’s challenge in the Let’s Craft Together Blog Hop was to use the new 2025-2027 In colours. At first I wasn’t sure if I could use them all as I feel they are in two groups – the Strawberry Slush, Darling Duckling and Timid Tiger go well together, then […]

Ink & Inspiration Blog Hop – July 2024

Welcome to the Ink & Inspiration Blog Hop. You are currently visiting Sharni Green from Melbourne, Australia. This is the prompt we were given for this month’s challenge. We could use either the colours (any or all) or the photo, or both as inspiration for our cards. I used Calypso Coral and Old Olive from […]
Vertical easel cards

This month’s class was all about creating Vertical Easel cards. I saw this style on Splitcoast Stampers and decided to give it a go. The trick is in attaching the floating panel to the front of the card so it floats freely. The first card features the Bottled Happiness stamp set. I stamped the bottle […]
Split card textures dies card

I created this card for a shoe box swap I did while I was away at a craft retreat with five other Stampin’ Up! demonstrators recently. A shoe box swap is where you create a card, then supply everything needed for others to re-create it. It is a great way to find out about new […]
