 Hi There Creators Before I forget, there is an AMAZING special on this month, not only are the new catalogue (and new Online Products) live, but there is a joining special, pick out $303 of goodies but only pay $169!!  Ask me if you're interested and want to know more, or if you know you want to take the plunge, click here: Join Heather's Team. Today I thought I'd play around with a spot of bleach stamping, then decided to throw white into the mix too, it's interesting what a difference it makes, I like both!  Bleach is fascinating when it reacts with different cardstocks (interestingly didn't work on our black cardstock at all!)  I used Pecan Pie card . To create these cards I also needed:  Stazon Black Ink Pad     white Craft Ink   You are Remarkable Stamp set    And bleach (in my case domestos 🤣)  Oh and a pointy paintbrush First up you stamp using Stazon (because it stays on! - in particular with bleach and waterbased compone...

Bendigo Craft Alive Show

-
Hi Everyone,
Well I'm checkin in here after our busy weekend at Bendigo Craft Alive! I hope those of you who made it enjoyed it as much as we did!  We had a door prize on our stand which was won by a lady called AnneMarie, from Maiden Gully, I hope you have fun with it!  I also had a special prize for those attending my classes over the weekend, this was won by a lady called Julie from Junortoun.
 
here is the stand looking pristine after we'd set it up on Thursday (never looks quite that pristine after the show starts lol)
Then the proof that yes I was there! (enjoying myself!) somewhat cold though hence the rugged up look!
 And not just me (not sure how Nay managed to avoid being in the photo though!) so starting at the left, we have Renee, Michelle and Me😊  Rosalie also came and helped Nay and I out on Friday, which was fabulous!
We all had fun, and by the end of the weekend I had succumbed to some of the icing flexi-mold things that were on the stand opposite us (Dinosaurs for Samuel - mr 6 year old) and some other boy ones (what else when you have 3 boys lol)? and I may have succumbed to some of the fudge, press on button things for my neclace, bottle of Muscat (shhh don't tell anyone.....LOL) and the list continues.......  It's all good, things that I'll use (or eat/drink the evidence away)

Well worth the trip to Bendigo if you're umming and ahhhing about it next year!

Ok well that's it from me for now, the next post will have some inspiration pieces for you all :)
God Bless love
Heather

 Hi there Creators, Well today I thought we'd check out something from the new catalogue, which will be live in just a few days (7th Jan). I saw the Mixed Media Florals Memories & More Card Pack in the catalogue and thought they looked lovely, and yes they really are gorgeous! (link prob won't work till 7th) Anyway in the video I show off all the cards in the pack, and mention that I am doing share packs for various things in the new catalogue (Designer Paper, Ephemera Packs, Embellishments, Ribbons and this Memories & More) See more details at the end or send me a message. And here are the cards I made up using the Basic White Assorted Memories & More Cards & Envelopes : This firs one uses one of the larger cards, a couple of stickers, the stamp set "simply said" for the saying and some of the pretty Riverside Irregular Pearls . Then this card is a small one, using the same stamp set "Simply Said" , a sticker and some more of the Riversid...

Something Saturday - Twisted Star Ornament

 Hi there Creators I saw this cool star ornament in another video, and had a bit of a play around with it, ending up with this.... (with a retired Designer Series Paper) Then I ended up making this one (somewhat puffier 🤣) in the video with the current Natures Sweetness Specialty Designer Series Paper  Ok, to make this you'll need 16 strips of 15cm x 1cm Designer Paper & glue (I used tombow) Use 8 of the pieces for each side of the star, you twist them like a Breast Cancer ribbon, but with a small "head section" and have a gap of around 4cm at the free end, and around 4cm of the 2 free arms (if that makes sense, it should if you've seen the video!) you then glue 8 of the "heads" together to make the middle of the star then the tails glue together to form the points. once you've made up 2 of these, you then glue them back to back, adding a piece of twine into the last point If you missed the video here it is:  I hope this inspires you to create one t...

GDP #261

 Hi there Creators, The Global Design Project #261 challenge this week is a colour challenge: (check out the link to see what others have done)   So I thought I'd join in again, and try out a card type I've seen someone else show off recently  I know it would have been on one of the Stampin' Up! facebook pages, I can't remember exactly what she used, but I liked the 3D'ness of it 😄 and I have no idea what the card is called possibly Diorama card would work?  anyway I set to work trying to work out how she'd done it (although I suspect if I could re-find hers she'd probably already done instructions lol)  I always seem to take the hard way..... So here is my "take" on it using these colours.  The inside is the impressive bit..... The outside not so impressive, but check out that gorgeous Gilded Autumn Specialty Designer Series Paper !  I've teamed it up with the Ornate Layers Dies , and the super soft ribbon from the Basket Weave & Metall...
