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.

Something Old, Something New, Something borrowed, Something Old, Something New, Something borrowed, Something Blue is the theme for today's Let's Get Hopping InstaHop. Based from a card layout borrowed from former 2019 Artisan, Jackie Aitken, I proceeded to use the new Nature's Print Bundle. My sentiment came from a retired stamp set, Heartfelt Wishes. 

Could you work with this theme?
