It's Fun Fold Time!! With Creativity Abounds - we all love Fun Folds!!


Hello and Welcome to Handmade by Julia Quinn.


Welcome to our Creativity Abounds Blog Hop. We are a group of very keen Stampin’ Up!® Demonstrators from all around the world that are coming together to share our creative ideas with you. We are happy that you can join us and hope that we can Inspire your creativity.

If you live in Australia and shop with me you will receive this tutorial bundle FREE! The tutorial has full instructions and metric and imperial measurements for 13 different cards. The tutorial bundle can be purchased for $25. Please email me if you would like to purchase the bundle.
Our blog hop each month is a project along the theme of the tutorial, but is a different design from the tutorial project. This is my Tutorial Card.

I love the way this fun fold makes the most of this gorgeous paper - whichever paper you use!!  


This time I've used the gorgeous Moonlit Flora designer paper and the coordinating Fern and Flora stampset.  

The greeting on my belly band comes from the Rolling Waves stamp set.


My card also features the Butterfly Flight hot foils with gold foil.  I've coloured the butterflies using Golden Glow and Cloud Cover Stampin' Blends.

Make sure you keep hopping for LOTS more great Inspiration!!

Bundle Inspiration leads to a scrapbook page CTC#583


Hello and Welcome to Handmade by Julia Quinn.


Tonight you get to enjoy our amazing CASEING the CATTY blog hop.  To CASE is to Copy And Share Everything or to Copy And Selectively Edit and we love to CASE from our amazing Stampin' Up! catalogues (catty!)



This week, we are CASEING a bundle......


And I have CASED the project on page 40 featuring the Extraordinary Life Bundle.  My Scrap page is bigger with more photos, but the basic layout is the same.


I loved the little cluster of elements at the junction of the photos with a secondary title.


I loved the Fussy Cutting for the main title.


My project features a sneak peek from the September to December catalogue coming soon!!  This bundle is the Noel Tidings die bundle, and I have used Pecan Pie, Smoky Slate and Balmy Blue for my colours (coordinating with our colour theme for Christmas last year!!)


Up next is the extraordinary Peta

Make sure you keep hopping to see lots of great ideas!

Check out our Facebook group for lots more inspiration!

Kitchen vibes Colour INKspiration #215


Hello and Welcome to Handmade by Julia Quinn.


Tonight I'm joining in with the Colour INKspiration crew and our awesome colour combination!!


At first glance these colours freaked me out a bit...... but in the end I liked where my card finished.


I've used the Flourish and Frames Hot Die bundle for my card.  It has lots of background images and these sweet flowers - but no greetings.  This comes from the Phrases and Frames stamp set.


The subtle hot foil silver frame looks great with these colours, and I picked it up again using the Rhinestones.


Inisde the card is the same colouring.  I've stamped the flowers using NIght of Navy ink and coloured them with Flirty Flamingo with touches of Calypso Coral for highlights.


The background was done using Pool Party and a blending brush!!
