Cards for classes in December

Hi Everyone
I feel like I say this every month, but Wow hasn't November gone fast! lol
Classes next month are on Maryborough - Saturday 2nd at 10am (bring Christmassy party food!)  Kangaroo Flat Wednesday 13th 10.30am (again the Christmassy party food), and Laanecoorie Wednesday 13th 7pm (see the note at the end).

These are the cards we'll be creating:

first up I love this Eclipse Technique, very simple when you know how!  I've used the Large Letters Framelit dies  and the Musical Season Stamp set

Card #2

This one uses the Christmas Quilt Photopolymer Bundle (stamps and dies), and also the matching Quilted Christmas Designer Series Paper.

On to Card #3:

this one uses on of my favourite stamp sets Every Good Wish Stamp set, inks it up with 3 different colours, and frames it :)

And last but not least Card #4:

this one uses the Tags and Trimmings stamp set, Be Merry Designer Series Paper, and the fabulous Everyday label Punch, which has rapidly become one of my favourite punches! Oh just realised it also uses another punch, the Triple Banner Punch for the ends of the Designer series paper!

If you are coming to my evening class we're starting at 7pm rather than 7.30pm as we're going in for making 2 of each card (8 in total) and the fee is $25 rather than the usual $15.

Check out the next post for Interactive Cards Classes which are on the 12th December.

I hope this inspires you to create!, and I look forward to seeing you if you can make it to any of these classes

God Bless love

Christmas Quilt Bundle

Hi Everyone,
yep I succumbed to the Christmas Quilt bundle, and Oh My Goodness I wish I'd got it sooner LOL

It arrived on Friday evening, although my "wonderful" husband decided not to tell me there was a box for me (grrr) until late in the evening (even though I'd asked!) by which time it was too late for me to do anything and I had a full on weekend, culminating in a migrane. However enough of my griping, and onto the exciting stuff.....

This is what I made up for my "Tag" card for this month, so if you order from me, you'll receive it to make up with your bag tag, just a quick heads up on how to make it, the Quilted Christmas Designer Series Paper is cut for you to 3x6" just fold over the ends and stick them down (around 1/2cm)

then attach your tag onto it and the cotton reel and needle. I found that Tombow (Multipurpose Adhesive) worked best to attach the tag on with.
So after this I had another go, and created this:

I've used one of the Clear Faceted Gems, and coloured it using the new Stampin' Blend pens (in this case the dark Cherry Cobbler), doesn't it look fabulous? looks better in real life!

Ok so onto the last card for today:

I couldn't resist just stamping, and I really love the way this turned out, hopefully the lady who receives it will like it too!  Don't think I'd be much of a quilter though I got a bit lost with the design lol!
just a close up of the Rhinestone basic jewels - again inked up with the new Stampin' Blends, Oh the Stampin' Blends are so much fun to play with!, and I love the fact you can buy individual colours, so if you use one a lot more than others you can replace it, and they are such an amazing price too, if you haven't checked them out, do so!!

Ok we'll I'd better keep going, I hope this inspires you to create
God Bless love
