Beautiful Beautiful Bokeh - inspiration aplenty CTC#513

Hello and Welcome to Handmade by Julia Quinn.

Tonight you get to enjoy our amazing CASEING the CATTY blog hop.  To CASE is to Copy And Share Everything or to Copy And Selectively Edit and we love to CASE from our amazing Stampin' Up! catalogues (catty!)

This week, we are CASEING from the Beautiful Bokeh landing page - so much prettiness!

I'ts been a hot minute since I made a shaker card - so here's my version of the butterfly shaker card and featuring a new bundle called Sweet jar.

I copied the same stamping detail from the butterfly card around the shape of the shaker.

The frosted dots works well in the bottom of the sweet jar!

I used the punched jar for the inside of the card with the hearts flying out of it!

Planted Paradise Colour INKspiration

Hello and Welcome to Handmade by Julia Quinn.

Tonight I'm joining in with the Colour INKspiration crew and our awesome colour combination!!

You can probably tell that I have been VERY influenced by the image this week along with the colours!

I've used the fabulous Planted Paradise stamp set with the bright colours combined with the Unbounded Love dies for the extra greenery and a lit bit of texture using the Timber embossing folder.

This stamp set really lends itself to some fussy cutting - and is actually very easy to cut out!  The greetings are a sneek peak for a stamp set coming in the new catalogue - Beautiful Motifs.

And I have really loved making a very white card to make these colours really pop!!

Layout Inspiration CTC#512

Hello and Welcome to Handmade by Julia Quinn.

Tonight you get to enjoy our amazing CASEING the CATTY blog hop.  To CASE is to Copy And Share Everything or to Copy And Selectively Edit and we love to CASE from our amazing Stampin' Up! catalogues (catty!)

This week, we are CASEING from the Mix and Match layout on pages 14 -15 of the Mini Catalogue, and I've CASED the Mother's Day card on the far right at the top.

I have used the Sippled Roses stamp set and coordinating dies to create a card very similar.  My brain cells loved the idea of doing something the same as the catalogue!!  

I have used the same beautiful die cut for the background from the ephemera pack which works so very nicely as a way to show off the front images.  

The roses are coloured using Bubble Bath and Flirty Flamingo Stampin' Blends for the flowers, and Granny Apple Green Stampin' Blends for the leaves.  I did all the stamping using Misty Moonlight ink.

Inside is another sweet rose - these images are soooo easy to colour with all the gorgeous detail on the roses.

Scrapbooking favourite!! Check it out

Hello and Welcome to Handmade by Julia Quinn.

Today is Scrapbooking Global day!! Each month we share some great inspiration for you1!  

The lovely lovely Courtenay chose our theme this month and it is one that I LOVE (of course).  

You know I'm a green girl!!

The DSP I've chosen is the new Lovely Garden ONline Exclusive paper that coordinates the the Thankful Garden Bundel.  I did NOT use that stamp set, however I used the dies for some of the leaf details, as well as the Stippled Roses dies and the Memorable Blooms dies.

The stamping comes from the NEW online exclusive set - Textured Notes and stamped using Memento Black ink to coordinate with all the Basic Black details.

And the title and journalling panel are from the Mixed Media Memories and More cards!!  That was easy!

Finally I added some white bakers twine on some of the bunches of leaves and some Tinsel Gems scattered around for bling (have to have bling!!)

I really hope YOU are inspired to try this!!  

Make sure you keep hopping to see lots of AMAZING projects!!
