  Hi there Creators My goodness over 1/2 way through January!, so I figured seeing as I've made them I'd best share my class cards for Feb.  Classes are Friday 7th at 1pm in my classroom Laanecoorie and Saturday 8th at 10.30am at Wattle City Church Argyle Road, Maryborough.  Class cost is $24 for 4 cards I thought we'd better make the most of the Sale-a-Bration goodies, so this is Heart Shaped Bundle (stamps & dies) that you can get for free with an order of $200, it is a pretty bundle!  I've teamed it up with the new Antique Pearls this next one uses the rather cool Linked Together Decorative Masks and also the saying from With You in Mind (I rather like nice large sayings for cards and this one has a few! Moving onto a new punch: To the Point Label Punch and matching stamp set Bright Borders And last but not least one of the new Hybrid embossing folders (this means it has dies that go with the embossing folder): Beautiful Butterflies (never would have gu...

Cards for class in October

-
Hi Everyone,
As next month is not far off, thought I'd share with you the cards for these 3 classes - Sat 7th 10am in Maryborough:  Wednesday 11th - 10am Kangaroo Flat and 7.30pm Laanecoorie.

As Christmas is not far away (gulp!) We have 2 Christmas projects. I'm starting with my favourite card for October!  This uses the gorgeous "Painted Harvest" flower as a wreath, and I just love it!  also uses the Hardwood Stamp in the background, and one of the sayings from Snowflake Sentiments.
The other Christmas "project" as oppose to a card is this: I thought it would be a nice change to make up a little gift box, this stocking is a little pillow box, I have used the matching stamp set that comes in a bundle with the dies, called: Tags & Trimmings Bundle.
 Card #3 been meaning to use this stamp set Floral Phrases again for a while now, and with the Designer Series Paper that looks so similar, I thought why not make my own Designer Series Paper with it?  What do you think? I've used Rich Razzleberry and  I really like the freshness of Lemon Lime Twist with it! the saying is from Eastern Beauty Stamp set, also the front of the card is cut using the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch, cool eh?
Card #4 uses the new Hostess only FREE set (Free with orders of $450+) the set is called Merry Patterns and it's designed as a Christmas set, but I think it can work as a Birthday set too! what do you think?  I've paired it up with Birthday Delivery Stamp set for the saying and balloons
Merry Patterns is such a cool set, it is a double stampin' set, so it has outlines, then infill stamps, I've turned the candle flames upside down to create the chain of lights along the top of the card 😀  I think it works for male or female cards!

Let me know which is your favourite of these cards.

I hope this inspires you to create, and if you live nearby, I'd love to see you at one of my classes, do let me know if you can make it.

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...

What's New?

  Hi there Creators,  Today I'm joining a Crafty Collaborations hop, this is a group of Stampin' Up! demonstrators from all round the world, cool eh?   This particular blog hop is What's New? and open to our own interpretation. Sitting out in my craft room I spied the True Love Designer Series Paper that arrived a few days ago, and decided on a spot of colouring in therapy, and the cards started from there..... This Designer Series Paper is black and white, and has some great images to cut out (if you don't mind a bit of fussy cutting) The first card I made with the paper was this one, I've cut the flowers out from one of the sheets of Designer Series Paper, and used Stampin' Blends to colour them in. With this first card I've also used one of the Gold Hoop embellishments which I haven't used before too, I have to say the metal ring is really quite sturdy you can see the Gold Hoop a little more clearly with this photo, I've used a bit of the Gorgeou...

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...
