My card today features the Hydrangea Hill Suite Collection from the Stampin’ Up! 2021 Mini Catalogue and a great Fun Fold card.
I love the colours you can find in Hydrangeas…the Pinks and the different shades of Blues to Purples….and the colour you get depends on the pH of your soil.

Welcome to our First Creativity Abounds Blog Hop. We are a group of very keen Stampin’ Up!® Demonstrators from all around the world that are coming together to share our creative ideas with you. We are happy that you can join us and hope that we can Inspire you to make creations of your own.
I am so proud to be taking part in the Creative Abounds Blog Hop with this great group of ladies & creating projects to share with you. This month our focus is on the ‘Love you Always Suite’ from the NEW January – June Mini Catalogue.
There is so much in this suite, something for everyone. I love the stunning black and white designs in the ‘Love you Always Designer Series Paper‘. On one side there are beautiful black and white florals that you can leave as they are or colour them in…using either Stampin’ Up! Water Colour Pencils (just don’t add the water), Blender Pens or any of the spongers – daubers or Blending Brushes (also NEW). I used Blender pens in Rococo Rose, Crumb Cake and Old Olive to colour the flower spray I used.
On the other side of the Designer Series paper the designs are more geometric, that contrast with the florals. Again these too can be coloured…may have to do that in my next card!
This suite also also has 2 different Stamp/Die bundles – Always in my Heart and Forever & Always Bundle. For this card I used the Always in my Heart Bundle which has a beautiful big floral shaped heart die. You may not be able to see the heat die on my card as it is under neath the flowers, die cut from the Sahara Sand foil sheet from the Love you Always Foil Sheets. This pack of foil sheets includes 2 sheets of three colours Blushing Bride, Rococo Rose and Sahara Sand. Included with the dies is this lovely big ribbon die cut, which has score lines so you know where to fold.
There is still so much more in this suite and I know you will love playing with them creating some amazing projects. All the products I used I will list below and it will be linked back to my On- Store.
You may be starting here or have come from someone else’s blog – either way there is a list at the end of this post to help you move around all the different blogs and get many amazing ideas. We all have our country listed – so if you are looking for a demonstrator in your country, these demonstrators would love to look after you with your Stampin’ Up! ® shopping or if you would like to join our Stampin’ Up!® teams.
For More Inspiration we have our new Tutorial Bundle…’Love’
The projects featured in this bundle are totally EXCLUSIVE, which means they can not be found anywhere else online.
Measurements are in both Imperial/ US Letter size and Metric/ A4.
There are a couple of different ways to get this tutorial…
Today’s card I created this great little scene of clouds, hills and a train rolling along. I’m sure any boy big or small would love this card. The stamp set I used for this card is the Moving Along Photopolmer Stamps by Stampin’ Up! ®.
The background was created using masking with a torn piece of paper and the NEW Stampin’ Up! ® Blending Brushes. These Blending Brushes are a must have in your colouring tool kit. They are made of hundreds of very fine soft bristles and is so easy to work with. They come in 3 in a pack…get 2 packs and have one for each colour family – Yellows, reds, blues and greens.
They are easy to clean with just a damp paper towel or cloth to rub them on to remove the colour. Sometimes if these is a lot of ink on them I run them through the water (but I don’t soak them) and then just use a paper towel to remove the excess water, stand in a cup and let them dry.

It’s where you have all the cars parked blocking each other and you have to move other cars forwards or backwards to get cars out…well I had fun the other day making this card based on this game, using the Stampin’ Up! ® stamp set called Moving Along.. It would be a great card for a game head like one of my sons…or it could be for some one who has just got his or her Driving License.
The hardest thing about making this card was where to place the cars so it at least looked like the game. If you haven’t played it or seen it here’s a basic one….Car Park Puzzle
The Moving Along stamp set is a 2 step stamp, the first stamp giving you the outline image and the 2nd stamp filling in the image with colour. There are no dies to cut the images so a little bit of fussy cutting had to happen.
All the Mango Melody cards were glued onto the Basic Black background. After stamping the sentiment strip I glued the Pacific point car to the strip and attached the strip to the card front with dimensionals.
