The Artful Stampers Blog Hop #106

Welcome from Alison's blog.
This week we have a Colour Challenge.

This is what we had to work with:
This is what I came up with:

I loved this stamp set the first time I saw it and it really is a great deal when you purchase it as a bundle. It consists of 37 stamp images so you can create a whole variety of different designs with the one bundle of stamps. I really love how feminine the flowers look and having the co-ordinating dies really makes it easy to cut the images out. I have made a 99mm x 105mm (folded DL) card which was the perfect size for the middle sized jar. The envelope was created with the new 2016/18 In Colour Envelope Paper and the Envelope Punchboard.

Free Spirited Card Making

As we had some terrible weather and a whole state blackout this week, there is no Blog Hop. However I thought I would blog some of the cards that I made during the week that are non theme related but just made for the fun of it.
These first two were made by following the tutorial shared by Dawn Griffith using the Fox Builder Punch by Stampin' Up!
Then I used the Fox Builder Punch again to make this Bear card CASE'd from Michelle Last
Saturday 1st October was World Card Making Day as well as the AFL Grand Final here in Australia so I took advantage of these events and made this card.
This one CASE'd from Janneke de Jong

Sometimes it is just fun to make some cards without having any rules to follow, but I am looking forward to having the blog hop back again next week. 

See you then.
