Something Saturday - Brightest Birthday Kit

-
Image
  Hi there Creators Today we're checking out one of the new kits, I have to say WOW!, maybe it's the holographic blingy bits (ooooo bling....🤣)  if you're a regular reader of my blog or watch my YouTube or Facebook channels then you'll know I can't resist bling.  Anyway check out the kit here: Brightest Birthday Kit And here are the cards it makes.... oh and their matching (also blingy) envelopes. Then you'll notice on the first card with the balloons it has a box that has the holographic outline, which is actually a sticker, so in the video I show you how to get the sticker off and onto a separate piece of card without having to pick it off and re-piece it yourself. And this is the card I made with it:  I probably should have used the same Azure Afternoon colour, but I had this piece of Shy Shamrock hanging around my desk, so chose to use that instead, and seeing as the star stamp hadn't been used I figured I should put it into action.  Its not a bad littl...

Cards for Regular Classes in September

-
Hi Everyone
Gee we're almost at the end of August already!  On 1st September the new Holiday catalogue is officially released (yay!)  If you are coming to one of my classes next month, I will have them ready for everyone to have one, if not and you'd like me to send you a catalogue - let me know!
Class dates are: Maryborough Sat 2nd 10am, Kangaroo Flat Wed 6th 10.30am, and Laanecoorie Wed 13th 7.30pm.

Ok, well, I may have delved into the new catalogue for a couple of our cards this month lol
first up, one of my new favourite stamps: Painted Harvest:
this is one of those 2 step stampin' sets where you stamp one image then the next one directly over top, for the flower and for the leaves (Oh it's so pretty!)  and, get this, there's a punch that goes with the leaves! (how exciting!!, it comes as a bundle too 😃)

Card #2 New stuff again *Hooray!!*
Thought we'd better have a Christmas card in the mix as it's leading up to Christmas (only 4 months!) this one uses the new SnowFlake Sentiments, beautiful set! (the dies that go with it are gorgeous too)  Also used Versmark resist technique on this one, with the glossy cardstock, and a touch of Silver Metallic edge ribbon

Card #3, I saw someone else had used the daisy punch to create a cute skirt for the dancing girl in "Beautiful You", and I just couldn't resist trying it myself, so here's my version
Isn't she gorgeous?, then I've used the Lovely Laurel Thinlits and the Powder Pink Shimmer Ribbon.

Ok, last but not least, I dug out the Paisleys and Posies Stamp set, and my new Happy Birthday Die
this one has a bit of a fancy fold, and I love the effect of colouring in some of the inside of the stamps with the white. And the Happy Birthday really stands out fabulously (I think)

Which is your favourite?
I hope these cards inspire you to create in your space, and I'd love to see anyone who can make it to my classes - let me know if you need more details.

God Bless love

Crafty Collaborations Sale-a-bration Blog Hop

    Hi there Creators, thought I'd join in this Sale-a-Bration Blog hop today, and I'm excited to see what others have created using the upcoming Sale-a-bration SAB products.  For those un-initiated  SAB is a special time of year where we have 2 months of FREE Products *YAY*: When you purchase $90 of products you get to pick a free product from the SAB offering, this year is the first year we're going to have 2 SAB's in a year there's another one coming in July too (it'll be different products) *DOUBLE YAY* lol Anyway there were a couple of products that I have to admit I wasn't so keen on, but at the time I was ordering it was a case of pick the stamp set I didn't have as others weren't available, then lots of people seemed to be raving about the Designer Series Paper that I ended up using (again I wasn't so keen on it)  However I have a thing about not being beaten by a stamp set, so I was determined to make something of it (especially as I can...

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...
