Something Saturday - Create Along

 Hi there Creators Stampin' Up! had a Demonstrator only event the other day, and showed us how to create "one sheet wonders" from a piece of Designer Series Paper (DSP). I got inspired and added a bit more into it, and you guys get to benefit from it 😃  I hope you do craft along with me in the video, but if you need a bit of extra help, I have a Create Along PDF for you (hopefully I can work out how to attach it!, let me know if it hasn't worked!)  List of what you need below photos. Photos below of the 2 sets of cards I ended up creating: Here is what I used for this first set of cards:  Kintsugi Inspirations   I used Stampin' Write Markers that will be retiring as they run out, but you could just as easily use the Stampin' Blends (alcohol markers) just use Memento ink with them rather than Stazon! And these are the ones I created in the video, here is the link for all the goodies I used for these cards: Absolutely Charming  (how pretty is this paper)! ...

February class cards

-
Hi there Creators,
my goodness February is almost upon us!  Classes for Feb are: Wednesday 5th at 10.30am in Laanecoorie, and Thursday 6th 7.30pm in Laanecoorie (my classroom), then the other one is in Maryborough on Saturday 8th at 10am.  Love to have you join us if you can, but if you can't I hope you find inspiration in my offerings here:
I'm using a heap of the new goodies from the "mini" and Sale-a-Bration catalogues.  So let's get started!
First off the block: this paper is just gorgeous! it's called Best Dressed Designer Series Paper, it also has handbags, and shoes, accessories on other sheets too.  I've teamed it up with my fav new punch: Braided Border Punch, and the Sending You thoughts Stamp set, which has some fabulous sayings, and is a Sale-a-Bration product (you can't buy this one, when you spend $90 on other goodies, you can choose it for free)
 
 Next up:  this one uses the Birthday Jubilee stamp set and matching Jubilee Beauty dies, it's so pretty the trellis dies (there's 2 different ones in the pack, check them out by clicking on the link)
Card #3 I just had to buy this stamp set! Pedal to the Metal it's got a Ute, Buggy and motorbike (and with 3 boys - 4 including Tom (husband) it's the perfect set!), I've teamed it up with Let it Ride stamp set, I just think they go together well!
Then lastly I wasn't planning on getting this set, but after I saw someone else had used it and how gorgeous it was......  the Stone embossing folder and Power of Hope Stamp set are both Sale-a-bration items, in fact they come as a pair, so if you want them you'll need to find $180 of goodies to  purchase and pick these for free.  (actually not all that hard to do, finding $180 of goodies! lol)  anyway I've teamed it up with the lovely Woven Threads Designer Series Paper from the Annual Catalogue, I think it works well for her dress, and I do love the saying! it means so much to me, as a Christian my faith is in God and He gives me hope to believe that all things are possible, which there are definite times in my life that I need that!

Well as Porky Pig says in the Looney Tunes Cartoons "That's all folks"!
I hope these cards inspire you to create!
God Bless love

GDP #261

 Hi there Creators, The Global Design Project #261 challenge this week is a colour challenge: (check out the link to see what others have done)   So I thought I'd join in again, and try out a card type I've seen someone else show off recently  I know it would have been on one of the Stampin' Up! facebook pages, I can't remember exactly what she used, but I liked the 3D'ness of it 😄 and I have no idea what the card is called possibly Diorama card would work?  anyway I set to work trying to work out how she'd done it (although I suspect if I could re-find hers she'd probably already done instructions lol)  I always seem to take the hard way..... So here is my "take" on it using these colours.  The inside is the impressive bit..... The outside not so impressive, but check out that gorgeous Gilded Autumn Specialty Designer Series Paper !  I've teamed it up with the Ornate Layers Dies , and the super soft ribbon from the Basket Weave & Metall...

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...
