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.

Something Saturday - Cool Altered Gift

 Hi there Creators,

Not sure about you, but sometimes I find odd things in Charity shops that I think oooo I could do something with that, so of course it comes home with me, and goes in the craft room with an aim to do something with it, months later I remember about it.....

I found a couple of chunky wooden sayings, quite a while ago, and finally got round to doing something with them!

My something is to attach designer paper to them to make them look prettier (and not so white)  First up though we explored the "intricacies" of the Take your pick tool, I have to admit there is so much to love about this tool and there's a few extra options you might not know about:  Here are the links to check them out: Take your pick tool to begin with, then if you run out of putty (although you get 2 with the tool itself there is the Take your pick Putty refills.  But wait there's more.... there's the Take your Pick Die Brush Tip (with a special mat) and last but not least the Take your pick Crafter Tips, which gives you 2 special tips & blades.

Anyway on to the show & tell part, here's the one I show how to do in the video:  I have used the gorgeous Regal Winter Designer Series paper for this which happily has been reduced from $21.75 down to $19.57, having said that it's only while stocks last, so get yours now if you want it!

The other one I created the other day is this one, which the recipient now has! and uses the gorgeous Perennial Lavender Designer Series paper.
