Winter Meadow projects inspired by November mood board

 

Kickstart your Christmas creativity with my November mood board. There’s enough inspiration on this board to help you create all kinds of projects, and I used it as my starting point for several Stampin’ Up!® projects using Grassy Grove, the Christmas Classics bundle and Winter Meadow Designer Series Paper. 

 

But first, how to use a mood board. It’s simple: just take inspiration from any or some of the photos and colours. 

 

In this board, the colours are Soft Sea Foam, Lost Lagoon, Pecan Pie, Crumb Cake and Lemon Lolly. 

 

There are no hard and fast rules so you can add extra colours, use the nearest you have, or ignore the colours and simply be inspired by one or more of the images. 

 

October Mood Board card ideas using Christmas Classics and Inked & Tiled from Stampin’ Up!®

Happy October! It’s a new month of new ideas from me, with the latest in my Mood Board series of Stampin’ Up!® projects. Please keep reading to see two projects I made using this board as my starting point.

I created this October Mood Board to inspire myself, my Stampin’ Up!® UK customers and team. But crafters everywhere can be inspired by the colours and/or images on the mood board – what will you make?

The colours on the mood board are Daffodil Delight, Shaded Spruce, Pretty Peacock, Calypso Coral and Real Red but, as always, use the nearest you have, or some, all or none of these colours. It really is just a jumping-off point.

Using two very different Stampin’ Up!® stamp sets – Christmas Classics and Inked & Tiled – I created two projects; one for Christmas and one for every day, to illustrate the broad range of projects which could be inspired by the mood board. 

Three Christmas projects using new Stampin’ Up!® Mini Catalogue products

 

Are you ready for some brand new Stampin’ Up!® products? If so, I have great news: the new Stampin’ Up!® September-December Mini Catalogue goes live tomorrow (Wed 6th Sept) at 2am – and I have three projects to show you using the fabulous new Joy of Christmas Suite. 

 

Trucking Along and Let’s Go Shopping cards made using August Mood Board

 

Do you struggle for inspiration for your Stampin’ Up!® projects? Each month I try to help with this by creating a mood board to inspire you. And each month I try really hard to make a project using the mood board.

This time I have made not one but two projects, using the Trucking Along and Let’s Go Shopping bundles from Stampin’ Up!®. They are very different, to show just what a wide variety of projects the mood board can inspire. 

Bird’s Eye View card idea

It’s time for another Stampin’ Up!® project based on a mood board, this time using the Bird’s Eye View stamp set.

I love a Mood Board challenge as it gives you SO much room for manoeuvre. For instance, taking inspiration from this July mood board you could create a project on the theme of travel, birds, butterflies, seashells and much more. 

You could use it as a colour challenge and create a project using any or all of the Stampin’ Up!® colours Melon Mambo, Azure Afternoon, Pumpkin Pie, Parakeet Party and Lemon Lime Twist.

Let’s Go Shopping card inspired by my Stampin’ Up! Mood Board

The month is nearly over and I haven’t shown you my June Mood Board project!

Each month I create a Mood Board to inspire my Stampin’ Up!® customers and team. The mood board can be used in various ways; as a colour challenge, as an inspiration challenge or as a bit of both. The main thing is that it kickstarts their creativity.

Cheerful Daisies card idea with Rays of Light

Today I want to share a Stampin’ Up!® project with you based on my May Moodboard.

Each month I share a mood board inspiration post with my team and customers, and finally I got round to using one to make a project for myself.
