Something Saturday - Citrus Blooms

Image
 Hi There Creators Today I thought it would be fun to try out a technique I haven't done in ages - Paper Tole, using the new Citrus Blooms stamp set and dies.  Every so often I come across a stamp set that inspires me to do a spot of Paper Tole'ing, and this one has lots of dimension to it perfect for this technique. To those of you who are saying "Paper Tole-what-ing?"  Paper Tole is a way of taking a picture and literally adding dimension by having several images of the same picture a and cutting out the various parts of it and laying them up, so the picture literally builds up and gives a 3D type image. I thought it would make a beautiful framed piece (and a nice gift for a friend) - let me know what you think.... I did team it up with the fabulous sayings from Unbounded Love Stamp set (the dies that go with this stamp set are a must have!)   Then to create shiny bits I've added some of the fine tip glue pen which dries shiny clear😍 I also said in the video I&

Cards for February 2023 Classes

Hi there Creators,

Now we have the new Mini and Sale-a-Bration Catalogues out, of course I've been inspired to use new stuff....lol

Classes are Wed 1st, at 10.30am and Thursday 2nd at 7pm in Laanecoorie then Saturday 4th 10.30am in Maryborough.  Class Cost $20 for the 4 cards. Don't forget to book your place.

I will admit I had a struggle to know what to use (there's just so much and so little time!)

Anyway, the Owls called to me (hoo? 🤣)  How cute is this little guy?  you can get the Adorable Owls stamp set for free when you purchase $90 of goodies (in fact that's the only way to get it, as it's one of the Sale-a-Bration offerings)  I've teamed it up with the Heart punch pack, and the Stampin' Blends (alcohol markers), and discovered that my Rustic Metallic bling slipped (oops)

Adorable Owls, Stampin' Up!

The next card I made is this one (which I think is really lovely in "real life" just hard to photograph well)  This also uses a Sale-a-Bration set: Beautifully Happy, and I will admit we're not using it to the full extent of it's abilities, but I really love the contrast you get of watercolour pencils on black cardstock.  to get this set as it's quite extensive, you'll need to purchase $180 of goodies, then pick it for free.  I've also used some of the gorgeous Dry Burshed Metallic Cardstock oooo shiny....

Beautifully Happy, Stampin' Up!

Card #3 is this one using the beautiful Fancy Flora Designer Paper, I've teamed it up with the Two Tone Flora stamp set and the Something Fancy stamp set for the saying (which conveniently fits onto the larger Dragonfly punch😉) and added a few of the Iridescent Pastel Gems (umm bling..)

Fancy Flora DSP, Stampin' Up!

And on to the last card using the By the Bay designer paper - Oh wow (have I ever mentioned I love Gold?🤣)  I think this might be my favourite card, I've teamed up the designer paper with the Brushed Metallic Cardstock, the Balmy Blue & White Variegated Ribbon, and stamps from Charming Sentiments.

By the Bay DSP, Stampin' Up!

I hope if you can't make it to class these inspire you to create in your own space.
