Hills of Tuscany


Here I am again, playing with the Hills of Tuscany stamp set before it retires. I've used a more traditional colour palette for this one - Pecan Pie, Mossy Meadow and Lost Lagoon. This scene makes me want to head back to Italy!

April Blog Hop

Welcome to another Stampers Anonymous Team Blog Hop! This month we have a Colour Challenge. We had to use Boho Blue, Moody Mauve and Mossy Meadow. You can make the complete circuit and see all the lovely creations by following the links at the end of each post.

I decided this would be the perfect colour combination to use with the Hills of Tuscany stamp set... before it retires in a couple of weeks!


You can create any Tuscan (or other!) scene that your heart desires with this stamp set. It comes with both detailed images and sentiments that you can pair together to create your own landscape scene. Each stamp is beautifully detailed, and can be easily layered. The images have such depth and dimension when stamped.

Not many supplies are needed to create a card like this, mainly just inks, stamps and paper. I did add some texture with the Painted Texture 3D embossing folder. I also swiped the Moody Mauve background panel with my Whisper White inkpad to soften it just a little. 

Well, that’s all from me. Click on the button below to move to the next stop:


If you happen to lose your way here’s a list of all the participants:
1. Nikki Stalker
2. Sharon Wilson
3. Melissa Gifford
4. Elizabeth Yager
5. Marelle Taylor (you are here!)

Thanks for 'hopping' by!

Botanical Thanks


And here is my third Botanical Layers card. As the same suggests, this stamp set is perfect to create a layered look. You might also spy a brand new embossing folder - this is called So Swirly, and I'm sure you'll be seeing a lot more of it! This colour combo is Lemon Lime Twist, Summer Splash (new In Color!) and Azure Afternoon.

Botanical Layers


I'm always a little torn at new Catalogue time....one last play with old stuff, or pull out the new stuff? So, why not both?! This is the Botanical Layers stamp set (Retiring, and a bargain at $20.50!), paired with the Online Exclusives sentiment stamp set Sweetly Scripted. You might also spy a brand new colour - the middle panel is Summer Splash, a new In Color! This colour combo is Lemon Lime Twist, Summer Splash and Azure Afternoon. I couldn't decide what colour to ink the sentiment in, so I used all three!

Thanks for stopping by!

Last Chance Products - While Stocks Last!




Today is the day! You can shop Discounted Retiring items from Stampin’ Up!’s 2023-24 Annual Catalogue and the January-April 2024 Mini Catalogue.  Lots of items will no longer be available after April 30, so it's time to say goodbye to some old favourites, to make room for lots of lovely brand new products. 

The Brand New Annual Catalogue is just around the corner (hooray! It goes live on May 1), so this month we have a Last Chance List for both the Annual Catalogue and the Mini Catalogue. Everything on these lists is only available while stocks last, and some are discounted by up to 60%!

I think the easiest way to view what's retiring is in the Online Store (make sure you check out the Clearance Rack while you're there!)
If you prefer, you can download the Annual Catalogue Last Chance list PDF 
and the Mini Catalogue Last chance list PDF

The best way to make sure you don't miss out is to place your order in my Online Store.
All orders over $50 will be automatically added to my mailing list to receive a FREE copy of the New Catalogue (mail outs begin mid-April). If you prefer to email me your order, that's perfectly fine too.

Don't forget, once these products sell out, they are gone forever! Don't miss out!
