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...

Something Saturday - Tulip Dies

Hi Creators,

Well this week I thought we'd check out the gorgeous Tulip Dies they're a bit different in that 3 of them have special folds, which I felt needed a bit of explanation (in other words I had to check out what others had done too 😉)

So here's my "take" on it...... this is the card I made before the video

Tulip Dies, Stampin' Up!

I love the idea of the tulips being a bit 3D, so I've curled the card, and added the glossy stuff, which on the left hand tulip is the Shimmery Crystal Effects and the other 2 are done with the Fine Tip Glue Pen.  Mine sadly got all gunked up in the lid,  (there is a pin that's meant to go into the extremely fine tip, and the pin got a bit mangled!)  anyway more than one way to get round things, so I unscrew the lid and use a toothpick to apply it 😃 gives a lovely glossy finish.

Then in the video I show the components I used to create these 3 flowers: Here is the line up......

Then in the video I make up the flowers for this card...

I think the die that produces this squares pattern is pretty cool (and bonus! it's in with the tulip dies!!)

I was thinking it might make quite a nice sympathy card, but I think I'll leave it till I decide who I'm giving it to.  As you can see in the background I've added a purple wash using the thick water painter brush from the set, I didn't think it needed much in the background and I'm happy with the way it turned out - which card out of these 2 is your favourite?

 Check out the video, to see how I put the flowers together


 I hope this inspires you to create

God Bless love
