Something Saturday - DSP & Blends

Image
 Hi There Creators Today I thought I'd show off an idea that Claire our Stampin' Up! Demonstrator Development Manager showed us in a workshop the other day, I took it a bit further in one of my cards, let me know which card is your favourite! If you'd like to see all the goodies I used on these cards click here:  DSP & Blends Turtles Cards Here are the cards I ended up creating The first 2 I've just used the blends to go round each of the images on the designer paper, I really love the way the images get highlighted from it, almost a "stained glass effect" This first card I also used the blend on the white card base under the Designer Paper to give a border This second card I used the Blend around the edge of the Designer paper to draw a line  (I did use a ruler to do this!) again to create a border. Then this last one I've gone round the edges again with the darker Pool Party blend, but then blended in the lighter one in all the gaps. I actually did g...

Thankyou and Tag Cards for August

Hi there,
Thought I'd share with you the cards you'll be receiving from me when you place an order this month.  If you're part of my Craft@Home group, you'll be receiving way more than this! (if aren't part and you want to know more, just ask)

So my first card is the Thankyou card, which uses the lovely Dandelion Wishes Stamp set, and also the Abstract Impressions Stamp set for the saying and underline.  Oh and the Detailed Trio Punch for the corners.
Then onto the tag card, which also uses the Abstract Impressions Stamp set,  the Itty Bitty Greetings Stamp set for the saying, which is cut out with the Classic Label Punch, and the tag itself is cut with the scalloped tag topper punch. Keep reading as I'll explain how to put it together after the photo.
 Right, so if you are one of the lucky ones who's placed an order with me this month, here's how to finish off your card.  The tag is all done for you, that is my gift to you (and if you've ordered from me it should be on your bag)  having said that the ribbon will need to be tied at the top with the white thread, and trim down the ribbon and thread till it fits onto your card.  Also in you bag will be a piece of card with holes in it, use this as a mask to press colour through, choose a light colour (I used Gray Granite, such a great colour!) and use a sponge or dauber.  Daub or sponge colour over the mask and move it round your card till it has lots of dots on the background. 

If you are ordering with me, there is a special this month from Stampin' Up! for every $90 you purchase, you'll receive a $9 gift voucher for use next month, don't forget to use my "open host code" WZTSTANH

I hope these inspire you to create
God Bless love
