Something Saturday - Hooray for Honeycomb Kit

Image
 Hi there Creators, Today I thought we'd take a look at one of the new Kits that Stampin' Up! has brought out, it's really fun!, the name "honeycomb" kind of gives it away🤣 There are 9 cards to create, and it's a nice simple kit, would make an excellent gift for anyone who is thinking of starting off with card-making, there's no stamping involved - it's all "stick it together" and everything is included to do this.  At $32 it works out to $3.56 per card (which let's face it is pretty cheap for a card these days!) So here are the cards you can make (3 of each): Don't you just love the matching envelopes? The front of each card has clear embossed shiny bits on it (most obvious on the rainbow card at the top! with my photography) And there you have it, I haven't had the chance to play around and see what else I can create with this kit yet, so if you get it and do play around, let me know what you do! If you missed the video here it

Team Day August 2018 Part 2

Hi there
As promised I'm back again to show you the Make&Takes that I created for our team day.

Initially I'd planned just to make one, but got a bit carried away, 3 later thought I'd better stop! lol
 My initial idea was to make one of the new cute little "Takeout Treats" boxes using the matching stamp set "Take Out Treats", so we did make this one:
Gotta tell you that ribbon is so soft! it's called Merry Merlot & Copper 5/8" reversible ribbon, and it's so beautiful!

Then I kind of felt that really we should try out the other 2 new embossing folders from the new Holiday Catalogue! (having used the Swirls and Curls one in Jenny's card)
Hence this card came in to being.  Using the new Corrugated Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing folder, also the Merry Christmas Thinlit dies, the Oh my goodness so amazing! "Shimmer Paints"  (do you get that I really like the shimmer paints? lol)  I've also added some of the Metallic Sequin Assortment (so pretty)

Ok and the other embossing folder is Tin Tile Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder, just so you know the "Dynamic" embossing folders have more layers than normal embossing folders, they can emboss deeper, and so some parts are more deeply embossed than other parts (pretty cool!)  Oh and funnily enough those Shimmer Paints make a showing on this card too!
This is a 1/2 size card, I've used Soft Suede Cardstock to emboss, then burnished using a dauber over the top with Vegas Gold and Bright copper Shimmer Paints, the punch and saying are from the "Christmas Traditions Punch Box", and the punched piece underneath is the Everyday Label Punch.

The new Holiday Catalogue starts for ordering on 5th September, if you haven't got one and would like to check it out let me know.

I hope these have inspired you to create!
God Bless love
Heather
