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

Cards for March

-
Hi Creators,
I know I say it every month, but but wow another month almost gone!!  March is a busy month with Picture to Page show in Kangaroo Flat happening the weekend of 16th/17th March, click this link to find out more info. 

Anyway on with the cards for March..... Class dates are: Saturday 2nd 10am Maryborough, Wednesday 6th 10.30am Laanecoorie, and Thursday 7.30pm Laanecoorie.
First up, I was asked for a spot of watercolouring, and I figured this card would work for a male or female card.
I've used the Well Said bundle that has heaps of words! (both dies and stamps) with a spot of watercolouring in the background.
Incorporating a bit more watercolour this next card has gorgeous watercoloured butterflies
And I just love, love, love! this stamp set Life is Grand, and the Butterfly Gala with the matching Butterfly Duet Punch are also fabulous!
Next up I had to use some of the absolutely amazing Sale-a-Bration Grapefruit Grove or Lovely Lipstick foil cardstock (which is still available for free with an order of $90)
It also uses the beautiful Dear Doily bundle, (oh my goodness the dies are just WOW)
Ok moving away from shiny stuff..... Last card, is a "pick one"
this uses the second release Sale-a-bration offering which is now available these Painted Seasons Designer Series Papers bundle with a stunning stamp set (Painted Seasons) and free when you purchase $180 of goodies.

Remember that during Sale-a-Bration for every $90 you order you can pick a FREE Sale-a-Bration item!, or if there are so many Stampin' Up! goodies you want to get, how about joining? the deal during Sale-a-bration is really sweet!  Check it out here: Join Stampin' Up!

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

Celebration of Tags

 Hi there Creators, I've been waiting ages, but finally this stamp set has arrived and it's every bit as cute as I expected it to be! So of course I had to play with it....... First up I stamped all the images using Black Stazon (they come in strips of 3 to match the dies) and cut them out with the big joined together die.  Then got to work creating cards with them, I ended up with 5 cards in the end, Oh and I've just realised I forgot to take photos of the insides, bother! This first one didn't get anything on the inside, I stamped the tag up, then debated what I could do to lessen the impact of the white card, and came up with the idea of inking the little label then stamping it a few times without reinking, and repeating till the card was covered sufficiently.  I'm quite pleased with the effect I got!   This second card is such a fun kid card, you might recognise it from my previous post on Global Design Project #264.  I've tied the ribbon at the end, then th

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
