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...

 Hi there, As you may (or may not) know I do a Mega Class in July (and January) each year, July's one is looming on the horizon, and I thought I'd better share it with you!  If you get my emails you'll already have details of it, if you don't get my emails let me know and I'll add you to my list! My Christmas in July Mega Class details are below, this is the stamp set and punch: Evergreen Elegance, that you'll be receiving as part of the class (amongst other goodies) Saturday 24th July 10.30am till 3.30pm.  At Laanecoorie Mechanics Institute (middle of Laanecoorie) We'll be making 12 individual cards (with envelopes) 2 of which are fancy fold cards.  Included in the cost of this class is your own stamp set and punch (Evergreen Elegance Bundle), full instructions, plus all the trimmings to make the 12 cards, and lunch is included in the price, so if you have special dietary needs you'll need to let me know when you're booking your place.  Cost ...

Rosette Tree Christmas in June Craft Alive Bendigo

Image
 Hi there Creators, I have done a Facebook video on this cute Rosette Christmas Tree and promised to share the measurements in a blog post, so here we are.... first up the tree!  I will aim to add the video to my YouTube channel too! It's a really sturdy little tree when you put it together with hot glue. You will need ideally 12 x 12" Designer Series Paper, the first one I made uses the beautiful Expressions in Ink Specialty Designer Series Paper, and the second one I've used the Simply Elegant Specialty Designer Series Paper the suites that go with both of these are just gorgeous! You'll need to cut each of the following: 12" x 1/2" 12" x 3/4" 12" x 1" 18" x 1 1/4" 18" x 1 1/2" 24" x 1 3/4" 24" x 2" I recommend for the last 2 that are 24" you cut double the width of the 12x12 card stock, then score it and then cut it in 1/2 (just saves an extra step).  Each piece you need to score and concer...

 Hi there Creators,  Welcome if you're viewing my blog for the 1st time, or the 100th! Craft Alive Bendigo was meant to happen Thursday 10th June through to Sunday 13th, however COVID has once again got in the way, so we're having a "Pop-Up Online Event" instead, just a case of those of us who would have been exhibitors, adding a little extra to our online presence.  I am hoping to have a Facebook live each day (Thurs/Fri/Sat)  Saturday will be my usual Something Saturday at 10am Anyway on to, what am I showing you in this blog post?  I was planning on doing a Christmas in June/July theme, and my choice of products for this is the lovely Tidings of Christmas Suite (do click on it to check it out)  This Suite has beautiful papers, ribbon, stamps and dies!  And I thought the stars would make beautiful tealight holders, what do you think?
