February 2025 Class Cards

Image
  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...

Team "Open Classroom" & Sneak Peeks!

Image
So over the last couple of days I've been holding an "Open Classroom" for members of my team to come and check out some of the new products. I had 3 cards for them to come and create with me too, which I thought I'd share with you as little "sneak peeks". First up a new Stamp set and Punch, Butterfly Gala Stamp set, and Butterfly duet punch, as the name suggests it cuts out 2 butterflies in one hit!  Also a touch of new Gingham Gala Designer Series Paper. Next up I couldn't resist using one of the new Sale-a-bration products, when you purchase $180 of products during Sale-a-Bration (Jan to March) you can choose this stamp set for FREE!  Oh my goodness it's beautiful, it uses the "Distinktive" technology for the stamp which gives the stamp such depth with only stamping! Then lastly the Forever Lovely stamp set and matching Lovely Flowers Edgelit dies, wow it's pretty!, and so cool the way the stamps line up with the dies! ther...

Cards for December classes

Image
Hi There! Well not long till December, and the tree can go up!   And also my last classes for the year.  As the first of these classes is on this Saturday, thought I'd better get myself into gear and show you the cards! first up..... I just love this So Santa Stamp set , he always makes me smile! and I figured the palm leaves from the Tropical Thinlits would make it feel like an Aussie'ish Christmas :) Next up, I've been meaning to use the glossy cardstock and shimmer paints for a while and keep forgetting, so finally.....  I may have gone a little beserk with this one, as once I had one made I had to try out all the other colours lol, first up Champagne Mist  then Frost White  And Bright Copper Lastly Vegas Gold looks way better in real life! After that I thought I should maybe start going back to a little more traditional, I like Purple on Christmas cards as I think it's very regal, so I've used Rich Razzleberry on this one, as well as ...

GDP164 Entry

Hi Stampers I've been meaning to enter the Global Design Project Challenge for a while, I did a few quite a long time ago, and keep getting the emails and forgetting, so this time it went on my list!, and I combined it with my thankyou card for the month!, so if you order from me in November, you can expect to receive this at some point. However first up, the challenge...... This time it's a CASE "Copy and Selectively Edit" by Louise Sharp, here is her card. I liked the layout of her card, so that is what I chose to go with for mine, I've also included a "sneak peek" of a new product called "Bloom by Bloom, which I received (for free) recently at the Stampin' Up! conference called "On Stage"  and here it is..... I made 2 versions one in White and one in Vanilla, so then of course had to use 2 different ribbons! I think I prefer the white with the polka dot tulle ribbon over the Vanilla with the Calypso Coral Ombre Ribbon,...

Coffee & Cards November

Image
Hi Stampers, So Coffee & Cards is on again next Wednesday (21st) in Dunolly, thought I'd share the projects we'll be making, firstly I have a confession to make, I am a Shaded Spruce Addict!  It would appear that I really have to drag myself away from this colour to use other ones lol.  Also I've decided to make a determined effort to start using some of my gorgeous Designer Series Papers, as I tend to love them so much that I can't bear to use them! Anyway, onto some cards that just so happen to use Shaded Spruce!  And they both use the gorgeous Joyous Noel Designer Series Paper, that has those lovely coppery foil bits, I've paired this one up with my favourite ribbon it's so soft and pliable (and totally my colours!) Merry Merlot and Copper Reversible Ribbon , and the Christmas Traditions Punch Box (stamps and punch).    The other card we'll be creating (let's face it its too close to Christmas now not to make Christmas cards!)  So again ...

Image
Hi there, Well I think I'm in love again!  I thought, I'll just make a card for a friend, who's birthday I managed to miss, and as this one's a limited time stamp set I wanted to make sure I used it, however as I have already packed a heap of inks etc for my class on Saturday, I was slightly limited with my choices, all I can say is OH WOW!  Happiness Surrounds Stamp set is one from the Limited time suite - Snowflake Showcase .  It is Limited, so only available while stocks last till the end of this month (November)  hence if you want to get it - get it now, don't delay!!  use this host code, and you might win the host benefits for the month: RJZEGMNQ Ok so the first card I made is the one I'm sending my friend, here it is: This involves just stamping the largest stamp (I used Pumpkin Pie) , then the medium stamp (I used Granny Apple Green), and the small flower, (I used Melon Mambo).  Next up the sentiment, and some Rhinestone Basic Jewels (diamant...
