Class cards for November

 Hi there Creators

Gee Whizz haven't the months flown by!  Not long till Christmas again (I love making Christmas Cards!)

Anyway Novembers cards are sparkly and 2 of them Christmassy 😃

I'll start with them.....  

See the links below each card for the individual products (codes and prices) I've used for each card and at the bottom I'll pop the times/day of classes:

 

I do love this angel from Angels of Peace Stamp Set, she feels really serene to me, I've paired her up with the lovely leaves die from Artistic Dies, and some of the stunning Expressions in Ink specialty Paper.  Not forgetting a bit of Wink of Stella for glittery wings😉  

Check out this link to see what I used for this card: Peaceful Pieced Angel

 

This other Christmas Card Ive finally got around to using a couple of things I haven't used much, the Parisian Flourish 3D embossing folder and the Stars are Shining bundle, I've heat embossed round the edge and combined my gold and silver powder to create a really cool champagne'y sort of colour

Check out this link to see what I used in this card: Parisian Stars 

 

Card #3 I've used some new stuff......Eden's Garden is a new Suite coming out on 2nd November I have used one of the dies and stamps from it, combined with the Gold and Rose Gold Metallic Specialty Paper.

Check out this link to see what I used in this card, although I can't link to the Eden's Garden suite yet: Eden's Garden Hugs

Last but not least, I think this might be my favourite card.  I love this stamp set - Artisically Inked.  It really doesn't need "dressing up" I've used 4 colours, and have to admit did add some Gilded Leafing.

Check out this link to see what I used in this card: Artistically Inked Gilded Roses

SO, which card is your favourite of the pick for November?, do comment below and let me know!

The day I'm teaching these cards is 3rd November at 10.30am or 7pm, you'll need to book your place if you want to come along as places are limited Class cost is $20 which includes envelopes and instructions to take home too.  However if you'd like to make these cards and can't make it that day, let me know and we can arrange another day (the advantages of having my own classroom is that I can leave it set up for another day 😉)

I hope these inspire you to create,

God Bless love

Creating a Faux Stained Glass Window

 Hi there!

In my latest YouTube/Facebook Video I showed how to create a faux stained glass window on the top of one of the new Stampin' Up! Kraft Gift Boxes.  These boxes are fabulous as they actually fit cards and envelopes in them!  Yay!, as I quite like to give some of my cards as presies from time to time I'm really stoked that these are the right size.

They have a little window at the top of them, which is where the stained glass bit comes into play....

So how do you do this?

Before you put the box together, using Black Stazon Ink stamp the image onto one side of the window, then use a black permanent marker pen to draw on the rest of the stained glass bits.

Turn the box over, and on the opposite side colour in the parts with Stampin Blends (alcohol markers)  NB do not colour in the side that has the stazon on it!  if you do the stazon will run, and you'll end up with muddy colour.

Pop your box together and viola one stained glass window effect.

Just in case, you do want to check out the video:

I have used the new Angels of Peace Stamp set, so pretty!  and there's heaps of fabulous goodies in the new Mini Catalogue, have you checked it out yet? and did you know that until 30th September for every $90 you purchase you can pick out a FREE Sale-a-Bration item?   Or, if there's so much you want, that getting a discount would be worth it, why not join my team, The CreateAbles, during Sale-a-Bration when you join not only do you get the amazing deal of pick $235 of products and only pay $169! but also you can choose from one of 12 new bundles from the mini catalogue! (bargain) let me know if you want more details!
 

I hope this inspires you to create, and have a go!
