Something Saturday - Bit of a Sneak Peek

-
Image
 Hi Creators I thought I'd show off a couple of the new Designer Series Papers coming up in the new Annual Catalogue.  The catalogue will "go live" for customers on 6th May, but if you want to get your hands on some of these goodies earlier you could join my team (and like me order them early!)😁 Joining is so easy, you pick out $235 of goodies (you can pick from the brand new stuff too) and only pay $169 (how's that for a deal?!)  You then get an ongoing discount on all your orders of 20%, plus you also qualify for the free 10% of any $35+ orders to spend on a future order (in essence giving you a 30% minimum saving) Win, Win!  The requirement after that to remain a "demo" is to order (through your own and /or others orders) around $470 per quarter, works out to just under $160 month (about $40 a week)  not so bad when you work it out to a weekly amount is it🤣  Anyway if your interest is "Piqued" ask me or check out more here: Join my team .

Cards for October class

-

 Hi there Creators,

these are the cards we'll be making in my classes next month, the class dates are: Wednesday 5th 10.30am in Laanecoorie, Thursday 6th 7pm in Laanecoorie and Saturday 8th 10.30am in Maryborough.

I thought we'd do 2 Christmas cards again this month, as we work our way up to 3 in November and 4 in December 🤣

This first card uses Quatrefoil embossing folder, then the Handmade wishes bundle (stamps and punch)  I love this punch I think it's so versatile!  I did do a blog/video on it back in July, you can see it here if you want to find out just how versatile it is: https://mccarthyheather.blogspot.com/2022/07/something-saturday-handmade-tag-punch.html,  for some reason this embossing folder to me looks "Christmassy"  To see what I used click here: What Heather Used

Stampin' Up!, Handmade wishes, Quatrefoil Embossing folder,
Last time someone mentioned that we hadn't done much by way of embossing folders recently, so this month we're rectifying that 😃  This next card uses Charming Landscapes Embossing Folder (there's 2 in the pack, the other one has mountains, which also might work with this, umm might have to play around with that one too!  Anyway I've also used the Wisteria Wishes Stamp set.  To check out what I used click here: What Heather Used.

Next Up, I was thinking I haven't used my Jar punch for a while, and I thought it would be cute to use it as a little fish bowl, then I had the saying stamped directly on the card, but it went a bit "skewiff" However there's always a way to fix these things 🤣  I quite like combining my "sea'y" stamp sets, so this combines Friends are like Seashells and A Fish & a Wish, and having not found a good use for the white pieces of Vellum Layering designs previously I'm quite happy with the strip of it down the side of this card.  You probably can't see this in the photo, but I've added some window sheeting on top of the jar to make it look more glass-like.  To see what I used click here: What Heather Used

Last but not least, I thought it would be nice to do a "fancy fold card" it is quite simple but it packs a bit of a wow (I hope)  I love this spiral or plaited look down the side.  Check out what I used here: 
What Heather Used
Splendid Day, bough punch, double oval punch, Stampin' Up!

Do let me know if you can join me at any of the classes (Laanecoorie one's do have a capacity limit, so get in quick!).  If you can't make it I hope these inspire you to create in your space.

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...
