Hi there Creators, Well we're 1/2 way through the month already, and Wow I now have 2 separate card Classes sorted for September!  the first is our regular class, which is what this post is about, the other is the special Gingerbread Man & Sophisticated Alternative Cracker class (click the link to see, should open in a new window). Anyway back to our regular class for September, which will be on Friday 5th; 1pm in my classroom and Saturday 7th; 10.30am Maryborough Class cost $25 for the 4 cards. As we'll be 4 months out from Christmas, we'll be making one Christmas card at this class (2 in Oct, 3 in Nov, 4 in Dec) 😃  gotta work your way up to it! So, by popular demand I've created this little guy with the sliding "behind".   To see all the "ingredients" click here: Sausage Dog Slider Next up using new goodies is this elegant sympathy card, although it could easily be changed to other sentiments using the same Unbounded Love stamp set, the new P...

Cool Circle Card

 Hi there Creators

well I really didn't know what to call this card, so I just went with "cool circle"! 🤣 As I mention in the video, the church I go to has been using something similar to this on the big screen as a background for names and songs and I thought it was really cool, so figured I could re-create it on paper!

I made this mouse one up first, using the ultra cute Mischievous Mice Host stamp set (love this set, so worth either spending up big ($250) to be able to pick it for your host $'s or persuading a couple of others to pop an order in with you 😉  And remember till 16th March, Sale-a-Bration has been extended for us here in the South Pacific, so for every $90 you (or they) spend you get to pick out a FREE Sale-a-Bration product too! (bargain)

Stampin' Up!, Mischevious Mice
How cute is this little mouse?  to see what I've used to create this card click here: What Heather used.
Stampin' Up!, Back on your feet
I actually show this card with the Slough in the video, and I confess that I've owned this set for a few months now, but never actually used it, in fact I discovered that I hadn't even got round to mounting the stamps onto their stickers (oops!), however I'm happy to report that the stamps are all ready to go and have been christened!  To see what I used for this card, click here: What Heather Used

Anyway how do you create this background?

You'll need a base card (either white or vanilla), and a piece of card that will cover the front of the card

Next cut a circle into the spare piece of card (I used the layering circle dies)

Lay the piece with the hole cut out onto your card, and using the blending brushes, brush on 3 different colours until you're happy with the effect

remove the mask and add the circle over top of the circle, and again add colour from the edges of the card, I've gone with more concentration of colour on the edges of the card fading as it reaches the circle.

And that's it, just decorate now!

Have a go, it's really easy!

I hope this inspires you to create

God Bless love Heather xox
