Around the World on Wednesday – Where Inspiration strikes

January 13, 2021 by Mikaela Titheridge 13 Comments

We’re going Around the World on Wednesday to share where Inspiration strikes.

Around the World on Wednesday Blog Hop including Mikaela Titheridge, UK Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator, The Crafty oINK Pen. Supplies available through my online store 24/7

A warm welcome to all who’ve hopped over from my lovely friend Aurélie from France and to all who have started their trip here. We are sharing where inspiration strikes and for me, it’s from many sources. Nature around us, fabrics, wallpapers, clothing but also from fellow card makers. This includes those cards sent to me that, dare I say it, have been shop bought. I often keep a handful that give me inspiration or that I’d love to recreate using Stampin’ Up! Products.

Handmade Card taking inspiration from another. Using Florals from Back to Back Blooms Stamp set. Bright and Vibrant

A Mum at school recently celebrated her 40th and I decided to create something that reminded me of some vibrant tattoos that I know she has. This card that I received for my 50th offered te perfect solution.

Vibrant and punchy in colour I used the Back to Back Blooms to add big bold flowers. I used the reverse side of the stamps to stamp solid leaves and pulled in a die from the Fabulous florals for some Gold Foil leaves.

Handmade Card using Back to Back Blooms from Stampin' Up! Bright Florals

The Playful Alphabet allows you to add a personalised sentiment but with the space I had left, 40 was sufficient. The white dots throughout the background were achieved by using the White Chalk Marker on the Smoky Slate cardstock.

I was really pleased with how this card turned out and I hope the recipient liked it too.

I hope you’ve enjoyed my offering of Inspiration and that you’ll hop over to see what Tina Zinck has in store for us. Enjoy the rest of the hop as we hop around the world on Wednesday.

It's Secret Santa time and for the Artisan Design It's Secret Santa time and for the Artisan Design Team 2023, they're holding a Secret Santa CASE. 

Each provided with a name of one of our fellow Team members and requested to go back through their year's Artisan Assignments, we had to select just one to CASE. To CASE is to Copy and Share Everything, putting our twist on the inspiration. 

I had the fabulous @autour.du.papier to CASE and chose to use the Joy of Christmas Bundle to case her Corporate post from March 2023, which you can see by swiping left.

As one Advent Door opens, another one closes. Sp As one Advent Door opens, another one closes. 

Spilling onto the dining room table and the lack of storage, all came at a time when I decided to clip my wings and take voluntary redundancy from an almost 20 year flying career. 

My Redundancy money would help fund the exciting chapter that awaited me. The construction of the Summerhouse. 

Built on the land of a former Pig Farm, The Crafty oINK Pen was born. 

An exciting few weeks as the build came together. Soon the summerhouse would be filled with fun and laughter and plenty of creativity. It’s seen a few changes over the years as I added to improve storage and I’ve shared that time with many both in person and virtually. It’s been a wonderful space to design in and I’ll cherish those years with fondly but change can be exciting … 

Follow to see what changes are in store and help me as I build a new future and one that I’m excited about.
