Let’s Get Hopping #22 – Words of Encouragement

July 15, 2019 by Mikaela Titheridge 12 Comments

The Let’s Get Hopping Hop today are sharing words of encouragement. Sometimes life, throws us Lemons and our friends and family rally around to support us with words of encouragement. In today’s hop we are offering words of encouragement for whatever reason and hope that you’ll like our offering.

If you’ve hopped on over from the lovely Nina, then I’m sure you’ll have enjoyed her share. For me, my share is quite a simple one, with a base card of Soft Sea Foam and a plain matting layer of Whisper white. I decided to add some texture to this matting layer by using the Subtle Emossing folder, but otherwise, quite a clean and simple card.

Let's Get Blogging #22 Words of Encouragement using Band Around and Bird Ballard by Artisan Design Team Member 2019, Mikaela Titheridge, UK Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator, The Crafty oINK Pen. Supplies available through my online store 24/7

The die cut element of Band Together makes for the perfect backdrop of these pretty birds. The Bird Ballard paper is just beautiful and you can create some stunning cards simply fussy cutting these birds.

I love this soft colour palette and the collage of the die cut piece against the bird. The matting layer was simply embossed with the subtle embossing folder. A few Rhinestones and a simple stand out sentiment and the front was complete.

I love this sentiment, it’s from the Good Morning Magnolia set – never a truer word said.

Well, I hope you have liked my share with you today. Next up is Alicia … I’m sure she has something special to share with us.

I may have been quieter than normal with my crafti I may have been quieter than normal with my crafting but I recently designed a series of cards for Die Cutting Essentials Magazine using the Fern & Flora Bundle by Stampin' Up!

I adore the botanical feel of these dies and what you can create with them. This wreath card screams whispy fresh air combined with richness, I just loved creating it. Would you welcome a botanical card like this for your birthday?
