Father's Day arrow card

It's Father's Day this Sunday in Australia and I made this arrow card for my son to give to his Dad.

Stampin' Up! Up & Away card by Angela Lovel, Angela's PaperArts

The arrow card isn't hard to make and is really just a few simple folds and a matter of decorating it to suit.

I used the Stampin' Up! Blueberry Bushel card stock as a base for the card and decorated it using the Best Route Designer Series Paper. I then used the Lift Me Up stamp set along with the co-ordinating Up & Away framelits to create the hot air balloon and cloud embellishments on the card.

Colour Your Season: Rustic leaves card

This is the fifth card in my Stampin' Up! Colour Your Season card series and features a simple rustic look by using the leaves image to make the card background.

Stampin' Up! Blended Seasons leaves card by Angela Lovel, Angela's PaperArts

To create this card I started with a Stampin' Up! Crumb Cake card base. I stamped the leaves directly onto the card base to create the background image. The sentiment was punched out using the Banner Triple Punch and adhered onto the card base with some Copper trim wrapped around it. A couple of leaves were diecut from Copper Foil and arranged around the sentiment to complete the card. It was a very quick and easy card to make.

Colour Your Season: Merry Christmas card

This is the fourth card in my Stampin' Up! Colour Your Season card series and features the Christmas stamps in the set.

Stampin Up Blended Seasons xmas card by Angela Lovel, Angela's PaperArts

To create this card I started with a Stampin' Up! Real Red card base and layered a piece of Under the Mistletoe Designer Series Paper on top. A Real Red banner was then added along with some mini sequin trim. The focal image which had been stamped and coloured using Stampin' Blends alcohol markers was then adhered over the banner to complete the card.

Colour Your Season: Blended autumn leaves

This is the third card in my Colour Your Seasons series featuring the limited edition Blended Seasons bundle available until 31 August or while stock lasts. One of the other items which is available to purchase with the Blended Seasons bundle is the Watercolour Pencils Assortment #2 set. I used these pencils to colour the autumn leaves from the Blended Seasons stamp set.

To create this card I started with a Stampin' Up! Cajun Craze card base. I stamped the leaves onto a piece of Very Vanilla card stock and coloured them using the Watercolour Pencils Assortment #2 set and blended them using the Blender pen. I then stamped the sentiment onto another piece of Very Vanilla card stock and flagged both ends by punching it with the Banner Triple punch. Some linen thread was wrapped around the top of the card and the sentiment adhered over it before layering it onto the card base. A Copper Foil leaf was diecut from the bundle and adhered to the sentiment to complete the card.

Colour Your Season: Celebrate the season

This is the second card in my Stampin' Up! Colour Your Season card series and features the beautiful floral spray from the bundle.

Stampin' Up! Colour Your Season Celebrate card by Angela Lovel, Angela's PaperArts

To create this card I started with a Stampin' Up! Mint Macaron card base. I stamped the floral image onto Whisper White card stock and coloured it with Stampin' Blends alcohol markers. I diecut a frame using the Stitched Seasons framelits and placed it over the floral image and adhered it onto the card base. The sentiment was punched out using the Duet Banner punch with a piece of polka dot tulle trim added underneath. A few rhinestones completed the card.

Here's another view of the card and you may be able to see the stitch marks created around the edge when diecutting the Mint Macaron card stock frame.

If you like this card, all products used are listed below and available from my online shop. You are going to love this very versatile bundle, but you will need to be quick as it's only available until 31 August 2018 or while stock lasts.
