Cards for August classes

-

 Hi there Creators,

Well isn't August sneaking up on us fast!  We're back to our usual 3 classes in August: Wed 3rd at 10.30am (Laanecoorie), Thursday 4th 7pm (Laanecoorie) and Saturday 6th 10.30am (Maryborough). $20 for the 4 cards - You need to book for Laanecoorie, Maryborough you can just turn up, (although it's nice for me to know approx numbers)

I hope you can come and join us (more the merrier!)

Anyway on to the cards for the month......

First up I'm using the fabulous Wonderful World (we only have till the end of August to use it, so I thought I'd better!)  It's a Sale-a-Bration set, and combined with the designer papers you need to spend $180 to get both the stamps and papers for free (no other way to get them 😢)  Combined with the Decorative Circle Punch, and the gorgeous Sequins & Gems (that seriously look all like gems rather than sequins! - so pretty!)

Wonderful World, Stampin' Up!
Moving on to more "prettiness" if that's a word - if not I'm going with it anyway lol.

This one uses the Splendid Day Specialty papers, and the scrolled back technique, with flowers from the Flowers of Friendship stamp set, cut out with the flowers & leaves punch

splendid day papers, flowers of friendship, Stampin' Up!
These next 2 are an either/or, this stamp set North Pole Mischief cracked me up when I saw it, and having cats and a dog in the family, it felt so appropriate!  I've used the Stitched Greenery Die in the background.
 
 
North Pole Mischief, Stampin' Up!

And last but not least, I'm still in love with this Snow Crystal stamp!  I've embossed it in black (gotta go the black ice 😉) then used the blending brushes to brush colour over it.  It really is a stunning stamp!
Snow Crystal, Stampin' Up!

And that's it!  if you can't join us I do hope this inspires you to create.
Don't forget Sale-a-Bration is still on till end of August, so if you spend $90+ you get a free SAB product, or if you host a party, and the orders are $500+ you get the Perfect Pomegranate Stamp set for free, or you can join with the amazing choose $235 of goodies and only pay $169 plus you'll receive the beautiful Making Plans Collection (Planner/Notebook and stamp set)
 
God Bless love

Something Saturday - Twisted Star Ornament

-
Image
 Hi there Creators I saw this cool star ornament in another video, and had a bit of a play around with it, ending up with this.... (with a retired Designer Series Paper) Then I ended up making this one (somewhat puffier 🤣) in the video with the current Natures Sweetness Specialty Designer Series Paper  Ok, to make this you'll need 16 strips of 15cm x 1cm Designer Paper & glue (I used tombow) Use 8 of the pieces for each side of the star, you twist them like a Breast Cancer ribbon, but with a small "head section" and have a gap of around 4cm at the free end, and around 4cm of the 2 free arms (if that makes sense, it should if you've seen the video!) you then glue 8 of the "heads" together to make the middle of the star then the tails glue together to form the points. once you've made up 2 of these, you then glue them back to back, adding a piece of twine into the last point If you missed the video here it is:  I hope this inspires you to create one t...

GDP #261

 Hi there Creators, The Global Design Project #261 challenge this week is a colour challenge: (check out the link to see what others have done)   So I thought I'd join in again, and try out a card type I've seen someone else show off recently  I know it would have been on one of the Stampin' Up! facebook pages, I can't remember exactly what she used, but I liked the 3D'ness of it 😄 and I have no idea what the card is called possibly Diorama card would work?  anyway I set to work trying to work out how she'd done it (although I suspect if I could re-find hers she'd probably already done instructions lol)  I always seem to take the hard way..... So here is my "take" on it using these colours.  The inside is the impressive bit..... The outside not so impressive, but check out that gorgeous Gilded Autumn Specialty Designer Series Paper !  I've teamed it up with the Ornate Layers Dies , and the super soft ribbon from the Basket Weave & Metall...
