You've Got A Friend CC#39 Poppy Parade


You are at the blog of Rachel Palmieri, an independent Stampin' Up! demonstrator based in South Morang, and outer north-eastern part of Melbourne. Thank you for stopping to see my work. I love to stamp (and other crafts too) and have loved being a part of Stampin' Up! for 8 years now. I hold classes in my home studio, demo at parties, coach my team and love life!!! Art With Heart is one of the larger teams in Australia, and it is a great community to be a member of. I'm happy to talk to you about any aspect of the company if you'd like to chat. But now for the business at hand - a colour challenge!


This blog was initiated by Catherine Proctor, a valued member of our Stampin' Up! family, as a way to share the colours in the range, both the old ones and new. Poppy Parade was an In Color when I joined Stampin' Up!, and while it is a nice, bright red, I was still a bit surprised when it made it into the revamp of colours. If you would like to check out what the rest of the team have made using Poppy Parade, click back on Catherine's link, at What Cathy Made.


 It was quite easy to feature Poppy Parade with a sheet of paper from Needlepoint Nook DSP as the starting point of my card. Bella and Friends was designed by one of our Million Dollar Sellers, one of the first I believe. It features this very cute dog, which reminds me a lot of my son & daughter-in-law's dog, Ruby. I used a number of the Stampin' Blends to colour the images.



The Circle Tab Punch co-ordinates with Tabs For Everything stamp set, but this time I used a heart punched with the Dog punchpunched from card and then covered with glue from the fine-tip glue pen. I do it when I know I will be leaving the craft room for a while, as it needs time to set. Then it looks just like an embellishment. 
The birds are from a Paper Pumpkin pack, and you may ask, "How did you get that in Australia?"
Answer is, I have an American demo friend, who was happy to bring me a few things I wanted when she visited recently. There is a really nice parrot holding a heart, already in Bella And Friends, but I was itching to play with these new stamps.

Friendly Frolic

I've said before that I'm not really sure why I like these pigs so much but I wanted to share my portrait of  these friendly frolics between a couple of fun porkers. They look so happy and full of life, they certainly put a smile on my face!


This Little Piggy is easy to colour with ink and an Aqua painter, some of the smaller details are easier with Stampin' Write markers. The grey pig scored some patchers applied with a sponge dauber.



Have you noticed this cute little Circle Tab punch in the catalogue?  You can see it on page 43 where it is bundled with Tabs For Everything stamp at a 10% discount if you buy both. You can also see the punch on page 207. It came in handy when I put tabs on my catalogue to make it easier to find different sections in the catty. Makes it so much easier!


Happy crafting

Catalogue Tabs

One evening last week I was too drained to do any paper-crafting, which is my usual way of unwinding after dinner. Instead I sat putting tabs on my catalogue. A few days before I had punched the coloured tabs using the new Circle Tab Punch from Stampin' Up!® You will also need a ¾"circle punch. If you click on the names, it will take you to them in the catalogue.

Kelly Kent provided the PDF for this, the girl is a computer wiz! It is so much easier to look things up with the catalogue set up like this, so many thanks to Kelly. The link will take you to her blog where you can download the PDF for yourself.
Happy creating
