A Playful Pals Nana Card from Stampin' Up! UK Demonstrator Sarah Poulton

Have you seen the Playful Pals stamp set in the Spring Summer catalogue? I adore this stamp set and all the possibilities and combinations for creating these little critters. The set is designed to be used with the matching Pyramid Box Framelits but as you can see works perfectly on its own to make cards with.

Today is my Mum's Birthday and I wanted to create a card for my girls to give her. This is the card I came up with- a happy curly birthday lion using elements from the Playful Pals stamp set.

It is so simple to piece these elements together. I simply stamped the lion's face and then added the ovals for the mane. I simply love the curly wurly stamp for adding texture to the mane. I used Crushed Curry and Hello Honey for my main images. I then added black detailing for the stamped face.

The greeting is from the Spring Summer Party Wishes Stamp Set and I added the Nana using my Layered Letters Stamp Set. To finish I simply layered my lion image over So Saffron and Crushed Curry cardstock.

More fun with Layered Letters from Stampin' Up! UK Demonstrator Sarah Poulton

Happy Wednesday. How has your week been so far? I've got the week off work so have been enjoying family fun. Yesterday we went to a new farm that has opened locally with a fantastic playbarn with a huge bounce pillow. It was exhausting. But I slept well after all that trampolining and chasing Summer about.  

I've been having fun creating with the Layered Letters stamp set. I created these for a recent crafty party for the ladies to have a go at. I gave them the examples and left them to create their own greetings.

I chose  the ink pad colours to match the Cherry On Top Designer Washi Tape: Cucumber Crush, Delightful Dijon and Watermelon Wonder.

I used the Whisper White notecards with matching envelopes for my card base. Once I had decided on my word/greeting I then stamped and matched with matching sentiments from the Endless Birthday wishes stamp set.

Today's new Weekly Deals are live so hop on over to see what lovelies you can pick up for bargain prices. I especially love the gold ribbon which is perfect for the upcoming festive season.

A Layered Letters Hello from Stampin' Up! UK Demonstrator Sarah Poulton

Good morning crafters. I hope your week is treating you well so far. It is a bright sunny morning here on the Isle of Wight and I've snuck in a bit of crafting before work. A perfect way to start the day.

I have a 'Hello' card I have made to send to the lovely new ladies who have joined my team this month so far. With the FANTASTIC joining promotion this month you can choose an extra two free stamp sets of any value with your Starter Kit (so not only can you choose £130 of product for £99 but you get an extra two free stamp sets too!). I would love to welcome you to my Inkin' Owls team and help you get started with your Stampin' Up! journey. You can find out more on the 'Join My Team' tab above or drop me a line on poulton_sarah@yahoo.co.uk.

To create my team welcome cards I used the new Layered Letters stamp set. I love creating different variations of words/designs with this set. For the first 'hello' I used Daffodil Delight, Old Olive, Melon Mambo and the words were stamped in Rose Red. I added Brights Candy Dots.

For the second variation I used Wisteria Wonder, Blushing Bride, Marina Mist and Rose Red for the letters.

And again I finished with Subtles Candy Dots.
