Something Saturday - DSP & Blends

 Hi There Creators Today I thought I'd show off an idea that Claire our Stampin' Up! Demonstrator Development Manager showed us in a workshop the other day, I took it a bit further in one of my cards, let me know which card is your favourite! If you'd like to see all the goodies I used on these cards click here:  DSP & Blends Turtles Cards Here are the cards I ended up creating The first 2 I've just used the blends to go round each of the images on the designer paper, I really love the way the images get highlighted from it, almost a "stained glass effect" This first card I also used the blend on the white card base under the Designer Paper to give a border This second card I used the Blend around the edge of the Designer paper to draw a line  (I did use a ruler to do this!) again to create a border. Then this last one I've gone round the edges again with the darker Pool Party blend, but then blended in the lighter one in all the gaps. I actually did g...

Cards for September Classes

Hi there Creators, 

almost into September!  My classes are on Wednesday 7th, at 10.30am in Laanecoorie, Thursday 8th 7pm Laanecoorie and Saturday 10th 10.30am in Maryborough. $20 to create 4 cards, let me know if you want to book your place.

And here's what we'll be making.....

First up we'll be using the Artistic Mix Decorative Masks, I love the effects you can get with these! You pick either the Hello Friend or the Happy Birthday, you can't see it terribly well but there is also bling on each of these (more understated in the "male" card)

Next up is the Christmas Lights stamp set used on this card with the Brightest Glow stamps for the sayings  I admit to buying the Lights Aglow Suite as I liked everything that was in it and considering you get 9 items in the suite at $261 it's not bad value! (2 stamp sets, 2 die sets, 3 lots of specialty papers, ribbon and embellishments)  Ironically the Distressed Gold Specialty paper isn't part of it, but wait there's more.......

So then in this card I've used some of the dies and the specialty papers!  I've used the Labels Aglow dies, Glimmer Specialty Paper and the same Brightest Glow stamps for the saying (the Dies and stamps come as a bundle, and you can save 10% - woo hoo!)  And I've even squeezed in the Gold and Vanilla Ribbon! (go me!)

This card is a gatefold card, something a little different

And the last card uses the Blessings of Home stamp set to create a pattern and lightly coloured in with blending brushes
