Something Saturday - Christmas Ephemera

Image
 Hi there Creators, Today I thought I'd show off the new Ephemera/ Mix & Match packs in the new Mini Sept to Dec Catalogue. Yay for Christmassy stuff! In the video I just showed off all the components of each: Christmas Greetings Mix & Match specialty Cards & Envelopes (lovely gold foil on them) Greetings for you Mix & Match Ephemera Pack Joyful Days Memories & More Card Pack Christmas Tags & More 6x6" Mix & Match Specialty Designer Series Paper I also mentioned that I'm happy to do up 1/2 packs of these bundled together.  I have worked out the price to be $40 plus postage if I have to mail it out to you.  Let me know if you are interested in this. Also if you're keen to use these, but lack inspiration, I'll be offering a class (see details below the photos).   For these pictures I have just laid the pieces on top of the base cards, not stuck down, but just to check layouts, I've added a bit of the Real Red Shiny ribbon in the first ...

Something Saturday - Tulip Fields

 Hi there Creators,

well finally the Tulip Fields came off the ship and into stock.... and then out to me!

Today in my video I showed the Tulip Fields Bundle, and then only used the stamp set to create a quick and easy card.  However I did figure I could use the dies next Saturday, so come back again to find out what I do with the dies!

However today's video, in one of our Stampin' Up! events one of the demos used this set, and showed us how to line up the perspective Tulip fields

Here is the card I created:

Tulip Fields Bundle, Stampin' Up!,  Being CreateAble with Heather

I have to admit if I was making again, I think I'd stamp the windmill first, as I stamped it after the tulips and it kind of "floated" above them, hence the line of blue border flowers!

Anyway lining up the triangles is quite easy, stamp the long double one first, to create the "horizon", then the middle one, then 2 more either side - lets face it how many times do you see flowers really precise?, so I reckon we can get away with it being "close enough"

To get the clouds I've used the same blue as the blue border flowers (Pacific Point) but as that was a bit dark for the clouds I've stamped off first on scrap paper.  And the last thing I did was using my blender pen to "pull" the colour from the edges of the windmill, so it wasn't quite so white.

And there you have it a nice simple one layer card!

I hope this inspires you to create, remember things don't have to be complicated.

God Bless love
