  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...

Botanical Tag Thinlits

-
Hi There,
One of my "must have" items from the annual catalogue I now have!  funny isn't it how you keep putting off and putting off getting something then finally bite the bullet and go for it!
I'm certainly not regretting this buy!

If you're a regular reader of my blog, you'll have seen an appearance of these dies back on the 31st August in my Interactive class for September blog
However after that I had a bit more of a play with some of the bits I didn't use much the first time round, and I'm hooked! lol
Let me show you. Da, Da......The Botanical Tag Thinlit Dies........


 how pretty is this rose?, I've teamed it up with Floral Phrases stamp set, and I think it works well :) I've also used the die cut piece to form a mask that I used on the background piece.

Next up I wanted to use the birds again, and I hadn't used the branch leaves in the other work I did....

again teamed up with the same stamp set Floral Phrases, just a very simple card, I love the delicacy of it.
And last but not least (possibly my favourite of the 3)


again I've used the leaves, this time to form a wreath round Santa with his Pineapple Drink and board shorts gotta love him! He and his saying comes from So Santa Stamp set, which was instantly on my list of Must Haves as soon as I saw it, go and check out the other stamps in it!  I've used a few of the Red Rhinestones around the wreath too, gives a spot of bling :)  Those who know me, know I'm not keen on being cold, so the saying works really well for me lol.

I hope you have enjoyed these cards, and it has inspired you to create at home, do click on any of the links to check out the products, and if you are purchasing, do add in the current hostess code: G43WBCJC for your chance to be in the draw for the free host rewards at the end of the month.  And check out the specials Stampin' Up! and I have for you when you order in the "Special's Happening" tab above.

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

-

 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...
