Thankyou and Tag Cards for August

Hi there,
Thought I'd share with you the cards you'll be receiving from me when you place an order this month.  If you're part of my Craft@Home group, you'll be receiving way more than this! (if aren't part and you want to know more, just ask)

So my first card is the Thankyou card, which uses the lovely Dandelion Wishes Stamp set, and also the Abstract Impressions Stamp set for the saying and underline.  Oh and the Detailed Trio Punch for the corners.

Then onto the tag card, which also uses the Abstract Impressions Stamp set,  the Itty Bitty Greetings Stamp set for the saying, which is cut out with the Classic Label Punch, and the tag itself is cut with the scalloped tag topper punch. Keep reading as I'll explain how to put it together after the photo.

 Right, so if you are one of the lucky ones who's placed an order with me this month, here's how to finish off your card.  The tag is all done for you, that is my gift to you (and if you've ordered from me it should be on your bag)  having said that the ribbon will need to be tied at the top with the white thread, and trim down the ribbon and thread till it fits onto your card.  Also in you bag will be a piece of card with holes in it, use this as a mask to press colour through, choose a light colour (I used Gray Granite, such a great colour!) and use a sponge or dauber.  Daub or sponge colour over the mask and move it round your card till it has lots of dots on the background. 

If you are ordering with me, there is a special this month from Stampin' Up! for every $90 you purchase, you'll receive a $9 gift voucher for use next month, don't forget to use my "open host code" WZTSTANH

I hope these inspire you to create
God Bless love

Cards for June

Hi there!

Wow yes, I know, I'm ultra organised for June!!
And who would have guessed that I'd be using new stuff?  I really don't know which one to start with, can't pick a favourite this month, so let me know which is yours!
Sooo, first off we have this Abstract Impressions Stamp set to create this card, I love poppies, so when I saw this stamp set, I just had to create some poppies with it.

Card #2 uses the dies that bundle together with the above stamp set! Springtime Impressions Thinlit dies, there is another die in the bundle, a lovely butterfly, but how pretty is this large die cut?  and I think the sentiment will be one I use a lot!  This card just uses the new 2018-2020 In colours, they are so lovely and vibrant!

Card #3, Oh my goodness the embossing die is sooooo pretty!  This is from Garden Scene framelits, with the matching Serene Garden Stamp set (that the bird is from) and I've used the Ribbon of Courage Stamp set for the saying and small heart.  I've used the sponge brayer to create the 3 tone background

And last but not least card #4 uses one of the new Host sets Hand Delivered, if you would like to be able to get this stamp set you'll need to either: 1; host a party, I will come to your place and teach you and your friends how to make a couple of creations, then once orders are gathered up you will be able to pick some free stuff 😊, 2; join my Craft@Home group, or 3; place an order with me for $250 or over, and you can pick this as part of your free goodies.

The dates I will be teaching these cards are: Saturday 2nd June at 10am in Maryborough, and Wednesday 13th at 10.30am and 7.30pm in Laanecoorie, Do let me know if you'd like to come along to any of the classes.  The fee for the class is $15 this includes envelopes and instructions.

Don't forget the new Annual Catalogue will be available online from 1st June (yay!)  If you are placing an order do use the "open hostess code" for your chance to win the free goodies  9G4HM46V  this code will go through till around 10th June.

I hope this inspires you to create!
