Image
 Hi There Creators Today I'm showing you how to make the card that Paula (Yellow Bear Stamping) was showing off when we were together in New Zealand (couple of weeks ago in my video) see the video here: Live Video with Paula I have no idea if it has a special name, she found it on Connie Stewarts blog (from USA), so now I'm borrowing it and changing it (as I do....)  see my measurements down the bottom. Here is the "original style" card that I made: (click the links to see the products) This one uses Nested Essentials Dies , Courage & Faith Stamps , and Timeless Plaid Designer Paper on a backing cardstock of Pebbled Path (I'm going to be so sad to see that colour go when the In colours retire in May!) then in the video I (kind of) made this one: which uses Wildly Flowering Designer Paper , the same dies ( Nested Essentials) , and a new Stamp set: Tags of Thanks . then I made my sideways revised version....  for this I've used the rather lovely Everyday H...

Interactive Cards Class in July

-
Hi Everyone,
This month I start a new series of classes, called Interactive Cards,  We are kicking off on Tuesday 18th July at 10.30am in Maiden Gully at the scout hall on the corner of Beckhams Road and Calder Highway.  And also that evening at my classroom in Laanecoorie at 7.30pm.  If you plan to come you will need to let me know, as I will be making up kits, so will need a few days notice!
Anyway.... We are starting off with Box cards, we'll be making up the 2 below:
this first one uses the cute No Bones About It Stamp set it's a bit tongue in cheek with the "look who's turning 21 again" lol but I couldn't resist putting the dinosaur into it.
 This second one uses some of my new goodies :)
some of the embossing paste to create light fluffy clouds, the gorgeous Floral Statements Stamp set and the flowers on the front are from the Awesomely Artistic Stamp set.
To book give me a ring or email I will be needing a deposit for these classes,
  • the Maiden Gully class is a deposit of $10, and a $15 fee on the day, redeemable against a $50+ purchase. Minimum class size 4, maximum 8
  • The Laanecoorie class is a deposit of $5, with a $15 fee on the day, redeemable against a $50+ purchase. (as I don't have to pay for the room)  Maximum class size 6
I hope to see you at one of my classes, however if you can't make it to the classes but would love to learn how to make box cards, and would like a kit, I am happy to mail out kits with instructions for $10 plus postage. (bear in mind that Stampin' Up! has a policy that we can't pre-stamp images for you).

I hope these inspire you to create!
God Bless love

Hi there Creators, I have worked out our class cards for May now woo hoo!   Class dates are:  Tuesday 7th at 1.30pm in Laanecoorie, Thursday 9th at 7pm in Laanecoorie, and Saturday 11th at 10.30am in Maryborough.  Class cost is $24 for 4 cards with envelopes.  It's important to book your place if you're coming to Laanecoorie as space is limited. Here are the cards we'll be creating: Using the beautiful Unbounded Love Bundle and Layers of Beauty (I've only used the stamp set here, but Oh My Goodness the bundle is so worth it!), also showcasing some of the new colours: Shy Shamrock and Peach Pie (guess which is which 🤣) Then back in time a little as this was in the mini catalogue (if you want it, buy it now before the end of the month while it's still a bundle price with 10% off it!)  Ice Cream Swirl Bundle (stamps & dies)  again showcasing one of the "new" colours, although Pretty in Pink is actually an old colour with a come-back! Moving onto t...

Something Saturday - Twisted Star Ornament

-
Image
 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...
