🐾 GDP499: Animal Theme Challenge

Leave a comment June 3, 2025 Leah Dixon - Stampin Up! Demonstrator

This week’s Global Design Project theme is all about animals, and I couldn’t resist reaching for the Along These Lines stamp set. The relaxed pose of the tiger really spoke to me, and I loved pairing it with one of my favourite sentiment sets—Beautiful Butterflies. They’re a perfect match for a card meant to lift someone up.

Here’s the card I created:

🧡 Project Details

Stamp Sets: Along These Lines (tiger), Beautiful Butterflies (sentiment)
Ink: Memento Black
Cardstock: Timid Tiger, Coastal Cabana, Secret Sea, and Basic White
Embellishments: 2025–2027 In Color Shimmer Gems
Embossing Folder: So Swirly Embossing Folder

The tiger and sentiment are stamped in Memento Black on Timid Tiger and Coastal Cabana strips. I layered those on a Secret Sea card base with white embossed panels above and below. This layout gives a grounded look while letting the sentiment really shine.

💬 What I Love About This Card

This design feels like a warm hug. The tiger’s posture is calm and supportive, and the sentiment—“In case you need me… I’m here”—is such a beautiful reminder of connection. The gentle contrast of colours keeps the card soft, not stark.

And honestly, how fun is it to use Timid Tiger cardstock for a tiger stamp?!

✂️ Tips for Recreating This Look

Try different colour combos with the same layout—Soft Sea Foam or Bubble Bath could totally change the vibe!
Use a stamping platform to help line up your sentiment perfectly across layered cardstock.
Emboss your background panels first, then trim them to size so you can adjust for even spacing.
Don’t be afraid to mix and match stamp sets—sentiments from one set can beautifully complement the images from another.

I used the Bright & Beautiful DSP (a Last Chance item!) and jar of stamped candles to make a fun, bright birthday card. The iridescent gems finish it off with a little shimmer! This layout is part of GDP498 and shows how you can quickly mix paper and dies for a playful, professional look.

🎬 Poppin’ By Gift Card Holder (Bonus Project)
Later in the day, I kept the creative energy going by using the same sketch to make a gift card holder with the Poppin’ By Bundle. I love the bold red and white stripes, stitched banner sentiment, and popcorn puff details. It’s such a fun card to give!

Global Design Project #497 – Colour Challenge

Leave a comment May 20, 2025 Leah Dixon - Stampin Up! Demonstrator

I’m excited to be back with another entry for the Global Design Project, and this week is a colour challenge—one of my favourites! The combo of Strawberry Slush, Secret Sea, and Darling Duckling is such a cheerful, fresh palette that practically screams birthday fun! 🎉

For this week’s card, I reached for the adorable Sweet Jar Bundle. I love how versatile this set is—you can fill the jar with so many fun elements! This time I used birthday candles to create a playful birthday card that’s both bold and sweet. I placed the jar inside a die-cut circle on a Secret Sea panel, layered over a soft Strawberry Slush tones DSP piece. A few embellishments in coordinating colours and a stitched sentiment banner finish the card perfectly.

Here’s the card I created:

💖 What I Love About This Card:

The candles inside the jar feel so festive and unique—like a mini birthday celebration!
The bold contrast between the soft background and the crisp Secret Sea die-cut window really makes the jar pop
The punch makes assembly quick and simple—perfect for beginners or batch-making
This design works for birthdays of all ages

🛠️ Tips for Creating This Card:

Stamp the jar and candles first, then punch them out for crisp, clean edges
Pop up the punched jar with Stampin’ Dimensionals for added dimension
Switch up what you “fill” the jar with for seasonal or themed cards—so versatile!

Global Design Project #493 – Colour Challenge

Leave a comment April 22, 2025 Leah Dixon - Stampin Up! Demonstrator

This week’s Global Design Project is a fun Colour Challenge featuring Melon Mambo, Granny Apple Green, and Basic Gray—and I just couldn’t resist creating a bright and cheerful teacher thank-you card using the School Days stamp set (available online only).

Here’s the card I created:

The bold stripes were created using tone-on-tone stamping to highlight the cute images from the set—apples, pencils, and stars. I added a stitched circle featuring a poppy Melon Mambo apple stacked on a couple of books, and tied it together with a sweet “Thank you” banner and a simple bow. Inside, I finished the card with the sentiment “You make a world of difference” and another little apple for a heartfelt touch.

This card would be perfect for any amazing teacher, EA, or school staff member who deserves a little love this time of year!

Global Design Project #GDP490 – Happy Hibiscus Birthday Card

Leave a comment April 5, 2025 Leah Dixon - Stampin Up! Demonstrator

Hello, crafty friends! It’s time for another Global Design Project challenge, and this week’s #GDP490 is a sketch challenge. I love using sketches as a starting point for creativity, and today’s card features the stunning Happy Hibiscus Bundle, an Online Exclusive that’s perfect for creating tropical, floral-inspired designs.

Here’s the card I created:

For this challenge, I wanted to highlight the bold hibiscus flower as the focal point. The Happy Hibiscus stamp set and coordinating dies make it easy to create dimensional, layered floral elements. Here’s a breakdown of the card design:

✨ Color Palette: Pool Party, Crumb Cake, Flirty Flamingo, and Basic White
✨ Embossing & Texture: I used an embossed white panel with delicate floral details to add depth to the background.
✨ Patterned Paper: A rustic woodgrain-style Country Woods 12 X12 Designer Series Paper brings contrast and interest.
✨ Embellishments: Twisted Gold Thread adds a touch of elegance, while Iridescent Foil Gems provide subtle sparkle.
✨ Sentiment: The ‘Happy Birthday’ greeting (from the last-chance Keeping Tabs stamp set) is stamped in Crumb Cake ink, keeping it soft and cohesive with the natural tones.

I love how this card turned out—it’s a great mix of texture, elegance, and tropical vibes!

Here is a list of all the supplies I used:

$15.75	$18.00	$15.75	$15.75	$17.00	$81.75

Pastel Birthday Card for the Global Design Project Colour Challenge (#GDP489)!

Leave a comment March 25, 2025 Leah Dixon - Stampin Up! Demonstrator

This week’s Global Design Project colour challenge (#GDP489) inspired me to create a birthday card with the soft, pastel hues of Bubble Bath, Soft Sea Foam, and Lemon Lolly. These delicate colours are perfect for a celebratory and cheerful design.

Here’s the card I created:

I started with the Textured Notes Dies, using the eyelet die to create a custom mask. With a blending brush and Bubble Bath Ink, I blended a soft background onto the die-cut base for a lovely textured look.

For the floral accents, I swiped Soft Sea Foam Cardstock with Soft Sea Foam Ink and repeated the process with Lemon Lolly Ink on Lemon Lolly Cardstock. These inked layers were used to cut the smaller accent pieces for the flowers and leaves, while the bases were die-cut from uninked cardstock to create contrast. The flowers were assembled with Liquid Glue and then attached to the card front with Dimensionals, and the leaves glued together, then they were tucked under with Mini Glue Dots for a layered effect.

The sentiment took center stage with a die-cut “wishing” from Soft Sea Foam Cardstock backed with adhesive sheets. To complete the sentiment, I stamped “you the happiest birthday” onto Bubble Bath Cardstock using Versamark Ink, then heat embossed it with white embossing powder for a clean elegant look. This was die-cut with the label die from the Delightful Wishes Bundle and adhered with Mini Dimensionals.

Finally, I added a sprinkle of Bubble Bath Rainbow Adhesive-Backed Dots for a polished and celebratory finish. This birthday card showcases the dreamy pastel palette beautifully and is perfect for sharing warm wishes!

Here is a list of all the supplies I used:

CASE-ing Jay Soriano for Global Design Project #GDP488

Leave a comment March 22, 2025 Leah Dixon - Stampin Up! Demonstrator

This week, I’m playing along with the Global Design Project (#GDP488) challenge with a fun twist—CASE-ing the talented Jay Soriano! CASE (Copy And Selectively Edit) challenges are always exciting because they allow us to take inspiration from another designer while adding our own creative flair.

For my card, I used the Adventurous Sky Bundle and the coordinating Take to the Sky 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper (DSP) to bring a vintage aviation theme to life. I love how the soft gray background, layered clouds, and detailed airplane create a sense of movement!

Here’s the card I created:

Card Details:

✈ Stamp Set & Dies: Adventurous Sky Bundle
🌍 Designer Series Paper: Take to the Sky 12” x 12” DSP
🎨 Color Palette: Night of Navy, Mossy Meadow, Gray Granite
💨 Embellishments: Die-cut clouds for extra dimension

This card is extra special because it’s a Father’s Day card for my dad, who is a retired airline pilot. The Adventurous Sky Bundle was the perfect choice to celebrate his love of aviation, and I paired it with a “Happiest Father’s Day” sentiment inside the card to make it even more meaningful.

The Night of Navy and Gray Granite background creates a timeless, classic feel, while the Mossy Meadow airplane adds a touch of vintage charm. The map-style DSP layers add subtle detail without overpowering the design. I also die-cut the clouds for extra depth, making the plane look like it’s soaring across the card.

I love how this project turned out—simple, yet full of personal meaning! If you’re looking for a great bundle for Father’s Day, masculine cards, or travel themes, the Adventurous Sky Bundle is a must-have.

Birthday Sunshine & Rainbows for GDP487!

Leave a comment March 10, 2025 Leah Dixon - Stampin Up! Demonstrator

I’m so excited to share my latest creation for this week’s Global Design Project Challenge (#GDP487)! The theme this week is Sunshine & Rainbows ☀️🌈☂️, and I had so much fun bringing this cheerful inspiration to life in my card.

Here’s the card I created:

The Design

I wanted to capture the bright and happy vibes of sunshine and rainbows, so I used the Happiest Day stamp set along with a blend of bold and vibrant colours! The left panel features a rainbow of stars, which I created by stamping the star image repeatedly and blending the colours seamlessly with Blending Brushes.

Here’s the colour lineup I used to create this beautiful gradient:
🎨 Poppy Parade, Pumpkin Pie, Peach Pie, Daffodil Delight, Lemon Lime Twist, Coastal Cabana, Azure Afternoon, Highland Heather, Fresh Freesia, and Berry Burst!

To add some extra sparkle, I incorporated a strip of Pastel Ombre Glimmer Paper and some Iridescent Faceted Gems. The sentiment, ‘Wishing You the Happiest Birthday,’ is heat embossed in white on a Coastal Cabana circle, die-cut from the Spotlight on Nature Dies. And of course, I couldn’t resist adding a popped-up dragonfly from the Happiest Day set—a little extra whimsy to finish it off!

Why I Love This Layout

One of my favourite things about this design is its versatility! By simply changing the colours or sentiment, this layout could work for so many different occasions—think thank you cards, baby showers, or even encouragement notes. The blended background technique is a fantastic way to make any card pop with colour!

Here is a full list of the supplies I used:

Basic White 8 1/2" X 11" Thick Cardstock $15.50	Basic White 8 1/2" X 11" Cardstock $18.00	Coastal Cabana 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock $15.75	Pastel Ombre Glimmer 12" X 12" (30.5 X 30.5 Cm) Specialty Paper $16.50	Happiest Day Photopolymer Stamp Set (English) $28.00	Tuxedo Black Memento Ink Pad $11.00
