A little Christmas Magic from Stampin' Up! UK Demonstrator Sarah Poulton

Happy Wednesday Crafters.

Look what I have to share with you today- a little sneak peek of the Autumn Winter catalogue and a stamp set called Christmas Magic.

This card is inspired by one of the creative makes in the catalogue itself. I adored the simplicity of the layers and the focus on the beautiful stamped images. So I gave the sample card a Stampin' Sarah makeover.


I started my card with the background which I created by inking my acrylic block with Soft Sky ink and spraying with a water spritz. I pressed the whole block to my Whisper White card base to get the imperfect rectangle background. I then used my Wink of Stella Clear brush to add a little sparkle to my background.

I stamped the snowman and pole in Memento Black ink and coloured with my Stampin' Write markers. I cut around the images and adhered with Dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment on to my Real Red banner and added Rhinestones for extra sparkle.


And as promised another quick cross stitch update. These two projects are designs from The Frosted Pumpkin Stitchery. I love their quirky kawaii designs. The adventure one is a monthly stitch along where a new clue/country is released on the 1st of every month. I love stitching along with fellow fanatics around the globe.

A Fairy Celebration from Stampin' Up! UK Demonstrator Sarah Poulton

Good morning lovelies. How has your week been? I've been enjoying creating with my gorgeous Autumn Winter preorder products. I have some sneak peeks for you next week. As you read this I will be finalising my table and prep for my 2nd Christmas Craft Day today. I have lots of fun in store for my ladies today and having received some great feedback from last Saturday's creating I am sure some beautiful creations will be made today.

My creative share for today was the result of a challenge I set myself to ink a stamp I'd not created anything with yet. The Fairy Celebration stamp set was on my must have list when I saw the new annual catalogue yet I hadn't gotten around to creating with it. I wanted a colourful but simple card to highlight the gorgeous fairy image. This is what I came up with:


I simply stamped the fairy in Memento Black ink and coloured with a selection of ink pads and Blender Pens. I added Dazzling Diamonds to the toadstool and brushed Clear Wink of Stella over my Soft Sky background to add extra sparkle. The final embellishments were the stars taken from the In Color Accents pack and the tiny pearls.
