  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...

Class Cards for August

-
Hi there Creators
my goodness we're almost into August already!  how did that happen?!
Classes next month start this Saturday, 3rd at 10am in Maryborough, then Wednesday 7th at 10.30am in Laanecoorie and Thursday 8th at 10.30am and 7.30pm in Laanecoorie.

So where's the cards Heather?? lol
First up..... I'm so pleased with the way this card turned out, you'd think the background pattern is a Designer Series Paper wouldn't you?,  but No! it's stamped using the Verdant Garden Stamp set, lined up (quite easily) on the Stamparatus  (how cool!!)  I do love green colours

Next up is this card, Ive been so keen to use this new stamp set and dies Tasteful Textures Stamp set, although the dies don't feature on this card (just wait a mo) I do love the fact the saying just fits into the Pretty Label Punch and oh my goodness the ribbon is so beautiful!! it's called Rococo Rose gathered ribbon.  I also think the Detailed trio punch works beautifully with this stamp in the corner, - also used for the ribbon holes.

Card #3,  uses the dies to match the above stamp set Tasteful Background Dies (see told you I'd get them in here!) lol  Also uses the Wish for it All stamp set, and the Daisy Punch and Medium Daisy Punch (love these 2 together)  Oh and not forgetting the Sprig punch for the leaves!
And last but not least, as it's Fathers day next month I thought I should add a "male card"  so grabbed out my "male'ish" stamp sets.... Geared Up Garage, and Sailing Home  I didn't add a saying so that people can decide what they want to add themselves.  Not sure if the lighthouse might need a little bit of colour, so it may have changed slightly before Saturday lol  Also used the fabulous Stitched Rectangle Dies, and some of the Night of Navy/Sahara Sand Bakers Twine Oh and a spot of brayering in the background!
Look forward to seeing whoever can make it!  I'm going to aim to bring some of my scrap bits on Saturday to have a bit of a "Stampin' Up! Jam" after as Ben is working till 3pm so I'll be hanging around till then!  So if you're free and fancy hanging around too, bring some blank card bases and use up some of my scraps!
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

-
Image
 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...
