 Hi there Creators, Today I thought I'd show off the new Ephemera/ Mix & Match packs in the new Mini Sept to Dec Catalogue. Yay for Christmassy stuff! In the video I just showed off all the components of each: Christmas Greetings Mix & Match specialty Cards & Envelopes (lovely gold foil on them) Greetings for you Mix & Match Ephemera Pack Joyful Days Memories & More Card Pack Christmas Tags & More 6x6" Mix & Match Specialty Designer Series Paper I also mentioned that I'm happy to do up 1/2 packs of these bundled together.  I have worked out the price to be $40 plus postage if I have to mail it out to you.  Let me know if you are interested in this. Also if you're keen to use these, but lack inspiration, I'll be offering a class (see details below the photos).   For these pictures I have just laid the pieces on top of the base cards, not stuck down, but just to check layouts, I've added a bit of the Real Red Shiny ribbon in the first ...

Christmas Quilt Bundle

-
Hi Everyone,
yep I succumbed to the Christmas Quilt bundle, and Oh My Goodness I wish I'd got it sooner LOL

It arrived on Friday evening, although my "wonderful" husband decided not to tell me there was a box for me (grrr) until late in the evening (even though I'd asked!) by which time it was too late for me to do anything and I had a full on weekend, culminating in a migrane. However enough of my griping, and onto the exciting stuff.....

This is what I made up for my "Tag" card for this month, so if you order from me, you'll receive it to make up with your bag tag, just a quick heads up on how to make it, the Quilted Christmas Designer Series Paper is cut for you to 3x6" just fold over the ends and stick them down (around 1/2cm)
then attach your tag onto it and the cotton reel and needle. I found that Tombow (Multipurpose Adhesive) worked best to attach the tag on with.
So after this I had another go, and created this:
I've used one of the Clear Faceted Gems, and coloured it using the new Stampin' Blend pens (in this case the dark Cherry Cobbler), doesn't it look fabulous? looks better in real life!
Ok so onto the last card for today:
I couldn't resist just stamping, and I really love the way this turned out, hopefully the lady who receives it will like it too!  Don't think I'd be much of a quilter though I got a bit lost with the design lol!
just a close up of the Rhinestone basic jewels - again inked up with the new Stampin' Blends, Oh the Stampin' Blends are so much fun to play with!, and I love the fact you can buy individual colours, so if you use one a lot more than others you can replace it, and they are such an amazing price too, if you haven't checked them out, do so!!
Ok we'll I'd better keep going, I hope this inspires you to create
God Bless love

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...

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...
