Something Saturday - Louvre Windows Card

Image
 Hi there Creators Today I thought I'd show you how to create this Louvre Windows card (little bit of trivia, did you know Louvres were invented back in the middle ages around 1500 years ago?, they were made of wood and put on pitched roofs to let out smoke, and increase circulation)😃 Anyway moving on.... I saw these kind of cards at the Picture to Page show, and of course the company selling them had dies to cut out all the components, but I figured I could make it work my own way. And so Voila: I made this card up before the video using the Celebratory Sips Designer paper (see all the links below) and here it is opened up (little difficult to photograph!) So this is the bit that's obscured above! Then in the video this is the card I made up, this time using the Beautiful Gallery Designer Paper (again links below) and the middle..... as you can see I used a bit more of the designer paper to cut out and add to the middle sections and again the obscured bit Links for products R...

Something Saturday - Delicate Desert sneak peek

 Hi there Creators

today I thought we'd delve into some of the upcoming "new" stuff.  I wanted to show off my favourite suite in the upcoming catalogue.  Although just so you know the retiring list is out so check out the absolute bargains you can grab on that and also on the Clearance rack which has also had items added to it:  Retiring goodies,   Clearance Rack

As I mention the video, because I went to the Stampin' Up! Onstage event I was then allowed to do something called a PPP order (Product Purchase Premiere)  so it meant I got some of my goodies before any of the demos that didn't attend the event (exciting)! 

If you're a demonstrator you can now order this suite as a pre-order, however if you're a customer you'll need to wait till 4th January.  But it's fabulous so, put this on your list!

Here is the board I made to show whats in the suite:

Delicate Desert, Stampin' Up!
There's stamps, dies, velvet ribbon and gold sequins
 

In the video I show off how I've coloured in the flowers on this card

As I used Bermuda Bay instead of the Cherry Cobbler, I ended up making this card with the flowers I'd created:

Delicate Desert, Stampin' Up!
 

Then I also made up this card using the fabulous long Aztec type design stamps to create the background

Delicate Desert, Stampin' Up!

Then lastly I promised to make a zipper card using the long die, and here it is.....  I really thought it would make great zipper look, and I've used the end of the diamond'y shaped die to create the zip puller.  I'm really pleased with the way it turned out, I do think it makes and effective zipper, what do you think?

I hope this inspires you to create (and if you want to find out more about being a demonstrator and getting to order things earlier 😉 just ask me)
