Upper Tantallon, Nova Scotia

Studio Conveniently Located In

274DF38D 2735 4F87 9C78 0D655200815DHi, I'm Christine Alward and welcome to my website. I have been a demonstrator with Stampin' Up! since December 2009, and I love paper crafting and card making. 

I love to make people feel good and happy about their accomplishments, big or small, and I can never get enough of the smiles and pride I see on my customers' faces when they look at a finished project.

So many have told me that they have no creativity or talent when it comes to crafting, and all I would ask them is to give it a try and let me prove them wrong. Watching happy clients of all ages leave my classes with their finished cards and projects is what I like best about my job as independent Stampin' Up! demonstrator.  I hope you will find inspiration in the projects I present here and that you will join me in my studio for a class.

Tropical Colour Inspiration

Beat the winter blues - Go "Tropical" 

COLOUR INSPIRATION

Terracotta Tile paper LI 3      Grapefruit Grove paper LI     Old Olive paper LI
 
Winter is holding on so I'm dreaming of a tropical vacation. I thought I'd use some of the gorgeous colours from the Tropical Oasis Designer Series Paper (#151252) to create the feel of an island getaway. These colours remind me of a warm summer sunset on a beach with palm trees.

The card on the right features the Tropical Oasis Suite. The flowers and leaves are stamped with Timeless Tropical stamp set (#151497) on watercolour paper and die cut with the coordinating In the Tropics Dies (#151495). A touch of texture from the Tropical Oasis Designer Series Paper (#151252) and the Basket Weave 3D Embossing Folder (#151797) complete the warm, rich effect of this card.

The card on the left features a selection of products from the Peaceful Poppies Suite. The poppies from the Painted Poppies stamp set (#151599) feature a faux colouring technique that uses the splatter stamp to colour them. The striped Peaceful Poppies Designer Series Paper (#151324) add a nice watercolour effect. The greeting from the Peaceful Moments stamp set (#151595) tops off a detailed layered accent created with Whisper White 1/4" Crinkled Seam Binding (#151326), vellum Peaceful Poppies Elements (#151327), Pearlized Doilies (#146936), and the coordinating Label Me Lovely (#151296) and Label Me Fancy (#151297) Punches.
