Memories and More cards - so much more than memories

In 2017 Stampin' Up! launched the Memories and  More range of journaling and scrapbooking cards.  The cards come in 6x4 and 3x4 size and you also get a few sheets of coordinating stickers.  The real bonus of the new range is that they coordinate with suites in the catalogue, so, if you wanted, there are stamps, dies, designer series paper, cardstock and embellishments that will work with each pack of Memories and More.  This means that you can use the card packs for a range of projects and uses.




In the Spring/Summer catalogue the Happiness Blooms Memories and More pack also teams with the Happiness Blooms notecards and envelopes.  You get two sizes that perfectly layer with the 2 sizes of Memories and More cards, and it makes perfect sense if you want a quick and easy card to make.



This card has one large Memories and More card, some ribbon and a sticker - that's all, simple, clean and quick.  The sentiment could be for a birthday, congratulations or just to say hello.


Here I have coordinated the notecard with some of the Happiness Blooms DSP and Butterfly Gala bundle (which we are still waiting to be re-stocked).


This is the little and large sample, one of each of the notecard sizes with just the Memories and More cards and stickers.

Butterfly Gala Smooshing Card

I must apologise for not posting videos over the past month or so for Stampin' Up, life has got in the way - but hopefully, I am back on track.

This week I wanted to use the Butterfly Gala stamp set on its own.  Unfortunately, we have been without the Butterfly Duet punch since February so I wanted to create a card just using the stamp set.  The punch and the bundle should be available by the end of March, and it will be carrying over to the 2019-20 Annual Catalogue (although not at the great bundle price).

This technique is also great if you are scared of colouring.  By embossing in clear or black embossing powder the images resist the ink and therefore 'pop' from the card.  The 'smooshing' technique is random, you can't get it wrong (unless you use too many colours and it goes brown/grey) and each project will be unique.

Adding the Champagne Mist Shimmer Paint adds a marbling effect to the inks, and you get these streaks and splodges of gorgeous shimmer layered in the ink.  I think it is beautiful.  I used the same technique with just shimmer paint on a piece of DSP and it looked like very expensive pink marble.
