Love London Scrapbook Page Featuring New Bohemian Papers from Stampin' Up! UK

I love how London is full of hidden jems and beautiful things if you just take a moment to explore and look around and today's Scrapbook Page is all about some such hidden jems I spotted at London's South Bank last year.
Love London Scrapbook Page featuring New Bohemian Papers from Stampin' Up! UK - get them here from 2 June 2015
The beautiful papers are from a new collection called Bohemian - and I am in love with them.  It did take me a while to get past the just looking and stroking stage with these ones but as ever Stampin' Up! help us with that and each pack has two identical double sided sheets - one for cutting and one for stroking and looking at until you are ready!  These sheets were cut and then punched using the new Triple Banner Punch.  The stamp are all available now.

You've Got This Stylish Birthday Card - Day 5 Of Our Countdown To The New Stampin' Up! Catalogue

I think I may be becoming a bit obsessed with the stunning flower in the You've Got This Stamp Set - and to think I almost did not order it as I was not sure what I would be able to do with it!  A couple of crafting sessions and a dozen cards later that feels so ridiculous.  
Stylish You've Got This Birthday Card - check out these new products from Stampin' Up! UK available here from 2 June
I love the sentiments in the stamp set as they are so positive but today's card is a Birthday Card and I could not resist pairing the beautiful flower with the gorgeous Happy Birthday from another new Stamp Set Happy Birthday Everyone.  The flowers and greeting were embossed with Gold Embossing Powder and it looked so pretty I decided just to mount it onto a Mint Macaron Layer and a Tip Top Tupe Base.

Moments Like These - To Kill A Mockingbird - Sneak Peek Time!

This year I have been fortunate enough to see some wonderful theatre, and one show I saw was an amazing stage adaptation of Harper Lee's To Kill A Mockingbird.  I have loved the book since I first read it as a teenager and was fascinated to see how it would come together on stage.
Moments Like These Project Life Kit from Stampin' Up! UK available here after 2 June 2015 - To Kill A Mockingbird Show Page
I loved it and if you get a chance to go and see it while it is still on tour I would encourage you to do so.  You can find the details here.  I totally fell in love with Atticus Finch!  I am on a bit of a mission to get the shows I have seen into my scrapbooks and this is a fun one to start with.  I want the tickets to feature on the pages I make and since they are not necessarily archival safe using Project Life by Stampin' Up! Pocket Pages is ideal.
Moments Like These Project Life Kit from Stampin' Up! UK available here after 2 June 2015 - To Kill A Mockingbird Show Page
Don't you just love the card I have used for the other pockets?  They are fantastic and so easy to use - and in just 10 days time you will be able to get your hands on them - yes they are from the New Stampin' Up! Catalogue and are from a set called Moments Like These.  I have also used some elements from the coordinating accessory pack.

Hello Card Featuring Six Sided Sampler Stamps from Stampin' Up!

Today I am going to share the cards I made for the Stampin' Up! Training in Telford last weekend.  At every training event we each make a bunch of cards to swap, it's a great way to get to know other people and to get loads of new ideas.  
Pretty Hello Card with a watercolour background made with Stampin' Up! UK products - check it out here
The cards I swapped were actually the second batch I made - the first had a bit of an accident when I invented a new and rather sticky Stampin' Up! Colour christened Reckless Ribena by my lovely team.  For those outside the UK Ribena is a blackcurrant drink and let me tell you it did nothing for my swaps!
Pretty Hello Card with a watercolour background made with Stampin' Up! UK products - check it out here
The ones I did share had a watercolour background made with Pool Party and Old Olive and then stamped with Pool Party using the Gorgeous Grunge Stamps.  The hexagons from Six Sided Sampler were stamped in Wisteria Wonder and Elegant Eggplant.  The butterfly is from the adorable Butterfly Basics Stamp Set and punched out with the Elegant Butterfly Punch.  It sits on a Silver Glimmer Paper Butterfly.
