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
