  Is anyone you know planning on travelling this year? Two new stamp sets ‘Watercolour World’ and ‘Greatest Journey’ will help you create perfect cards for them.  For my base I used night of navy card stock (6x4 inches when folded in half), layered with white card cut a whisper shorter on either side. I used two different ink colours randomly dabbed onto the watercolour world stamp for the map. You can pick as many ink colours as you wish for this part or even just stick to one.  The sentiment comes room the greatest journey stamp set and is inked in basic black. Old olive ink is used for the trees, also from the same stamp set.  For the mountains and figure I used the dies from the greatest journey. Lastly in the top right corner I added an enamel sticker icon. Enjoy The Journey suite  On page 58 of the new mini catalogue. The full suite includes stamp set and dies, 12x12 designer series papers, three twine combo pack and enamel sticker icons.  Items can be bought separately or as a w

  How gorgeous has the weather been in England recently? I’ve recently returned from a week away in Lincolnshire. I’d taken a small bag of craft items with me incase we got rain but it was so warm and sunny I didn’t craft once.  Today I am showcasing the totally gorgeous Happier Than Happy stamp set with the coordinating Happy Forest dies and Happy Forest Friends designer series papers. I really love the papers in this suite, great for new baby, child birthday cards but also the reverse side patterns suitable for all occasions.  The papers are 12” x 12”,double sided. The stamp set with its cute forest friends and the matching dies are perfect so no fussy cutting required. All items are available individually so if you didn’t want everything you can pick and choose to suit your budget / needs. Have you got this set already? I’d love to see your makes and ideas.  If you’d like to order any Stampin’ Up! Products please use the link on my homepage, top left where you can shop 24/7.  Rachae
