Something Saturday - Bleach or White?

Image
 Hi There Creators Before I forget, there is an AMAZING special on this month, not only are the new catalogue (and new Online Products) live, but there is a joining special, pick out $303 of goodies but only pay $169!!  Ask me if you're interested and want to know more, or if you know you want to take the plunge, click here: Join Heather's Team. Today I thought I'd play around with a spot of bleach stamping, then decided to throw white into the mix too, it's interesting what a difference it makes, I like both!  Bleach is fascinating when it reacts with different cardstocks (interestingly didn't work on our black cardstock at all!)  I used Pecan Pie card . To create these cards I also needed:  Stazon Black Ink Pad     white Craft Ink   You are Remarkable Stamp set    And bleach (in my case domestos 🤣)  Oh and a pointy paintbrush First up you stamp using Stazon (because it stays on! - in particular with bleach and waterbased compone...

ClassCards@Home September 2020

 Hi Creators,  Well the in person classes were very short lived!  So we're back to @Home classes again.  For each of these cards you can use your own sayings that you have at home.  I'll be providing all the cardstock cut/scored/punched etc and the extra elements and instructions, so you only need glue, ink and saying stamps. Anyway onto the cards: If you follow my blog, you'll have seen this one the other day, We're using the Best Plaid Builder dies for this card, and the Story Label Punch . The other 3 cards I feel I got a bit carried away with Vellum lol.... Card #2:  This card does use a vellum background (but you probably wouldn't know from this photo!)  I've used the beautiful Poinsettia Dies you can see the Subtle embossing folder in this close up photo, I love the "subtle" effect it has for the background, really softens it, which is what I wanted for this delicate card. Card #3 again uses Vellum, this time I've gone for Christmas, with t...

Best Plaid Builder Dies

Hi there Creators,  Well home schooling is currently taking precedence on my days off, but I did manage to squeeze in a little creating (keeps me sane!)  so I thought I'd share with you! As a demonstrator we get to order some things earlier than our customers, and the new Stampin' Cut & Emboss machine (Stampin' Up!'s own bigshot version) is one of them, it'll be available for customers from next month, finally after stalking the postie for a couple of weeks (the mail is extremely slow currently) it's arrived, and also the new bundle I ordered at the same time:  Da, da, the Best Plaid Builder Dies and Best Year stamp set ( Best Year Bundle )  it's one I've been umming and ahhing about for a while, so I figured I'd christen my new Stampin' Cut&Emboss machine with it, I'm so glad I did get it!  Anyway onto the photos (that's my favourite bit...) So.... here set up is my new (oh so bright and shiny) Stampin' Cut&Emboss Machine...

ClassCards@Home for August

Image
 Hi there Creators,  Well, having made up cards to be done with me, we've been locked down again! hence I've made up 4 more cards that you can use your own stamp wording with.  This way you can order the kit and do them at home (and dream of getting together for a class again.....) Kit cost $20 plus $2.20 for postage (if I need to mail them to you) please order by 14th, I'll make up the kits that weekend, and either mail them on the Monday or wait till I'm in your area and deliver them off as soon as I can after that. Ok, so the cards are: First Up, it's been Wintery and raining, so I had a need for some sunshine lol, I chose to utilize the Friendly Silhouette dies !  I made this card up, then decided it would actually make quite a cool retirement card, and it's the first time I've used this saying from Itty Bitty Greetings such a handy set! After this card, I couldn't resist using some of the new goodies I have from the August to December Mini catalog...
