  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...

Petal Passion Suite

-
Hi!
Today I've been playing around with Petal Passion (quite possibly my favourite suite from the new Occasions catalogue), it has not only Petal Palette Stamp set, and Petals and More Thinlits, but it also has absolutely gorgeous Petal Passion Designer Series Paper (haven't used that much yet), Petal Pair Embossing folders, some pretty Petal Passion Embellishments, AND Petal Passion Memories and More Card Pack.  It doesn't come as a complete bundle, so you can pick and choose (but of course I ended up with it all lol)
However you're not here to hear me waffle on, so on to the cards!

I'll start off today with the Petal Passion Memories and More Pack this can make some beautiful cards (you could even use it for scrapbooking lol)
this first card uses one of the accent sheets, a small card and the heart sticker (with a touch of Clear Wink of Stella - I've used it as a paint brush, and picked up a bit of Blushing Bride colour from the lid of the ink pad)
Next Up:
again uses part of an accent sheet (smile), and also one of the acetate card overlays, I have found that to stick it down Tombow is the best. Isn't it pretty?!
Moving on..... this one uses one of the larger cards, cut down a little, and coloured in, again using the clear wink of stella, and picking up colour from the lids of the ink pads
 thought you might like a close up of the wink of stella that glistens on the cardstock.
Then the final card I made with the Petal Passion Memories and More Pack (for today), again uses one of the large cards trimmed down, then the frame comes from the Petals and More Thinlit dies, and the "Celebrate" comes from a completely different stamp set "Picture Perfect Birthday"
what do you reckon, could you fall in love with these Petal Passion cards too?  there's stickers in the pack as well... Oh the possibilities LOL.  I'll try and create a bit more with the Stamp set and dies before I do a post on those, so stay tuned :)

Oh, and if you're after value for money the above cards were all made with a kit that is only $17.50! how's that for value?  add some cardstock, maybe a stamp set and a punch or dies..........

I hope this inspires you to create.
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

-
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...
