Something Saturday - Peekaboo Diagonal Cut Card

Image
 Hi there Creators As I mention in the video I was having a bit of a nostalgic wander through my old catalogue (that retired on 6th May) and came across a page that had a couple of fun fold cards.  So here we are today, trying one of them out.....  Theirs is landscape, mine is portrait but the measurements would be pretty similar just having the fold of the card in a different place. Here is mine: as you can see it's kind of a card in a card.  I've used the Celebratory Sips Suite ,  although I confess I haven't used the stamps & dies in this particular card!  The suite has Stamps, dies, 2 embossing folders, bling, ribbon, and Designer paper, all for $138.25 which I think is pretty good! (and just think with the new rewards system, you'll then have $13.80 to spend on your next order - make sure you've opted in!) If you watched the video you'll know that I accidentally added glue to the wrong side of my designer paper, so I ended up making this card with ...

Coffee & Cards November

Hi Stampers, So Coffee & Cards is on again next Wednesday (21st) in Dunolly, thought I'd share the projects we'll be making, firstly I have a confession to make, I am a Shaded Spruce Addict!  It would appear that I really have to drag myself away from this colour to use other ones lol.  Also I've decided to make a determined effort to start using some of my gorgeous Designer Series Papers, as I tend to love them so much that I can't bear to use them! Anyway, onto some cards that just so happen to use Shaded Spruce!  And they both use the gorgeous Joyous Noel Designer Series Paper, that has those lovely coppery foil bits, I've paired this one up with my favourite ribbon it's so soft and pliable (and totally my colours!) Merry Merlot and Copper Reversible Ribbon , and the Christmas Traditions Punch Box (stamps and punch).    The other card we'll be creating (let's face it its too close to Christmas now not to make Christmas cards!)  So again ...

Team Day August 2018 Part 2

Image
Hi there As promised I'm back again to show you the Make&Takes that I created for our team day. Initially I'd planned just to make one, but got a bit carried away, 3 later thought I'd better stop! lol  My initial idea was to make one of the new cute little "Takeout Treats" boxes using the matching stamp set "Take Out Treats", so we did make this one: Gotta tell you that ribbon is so soft! it's called Merry Merlot & Copper 5/8" reversible ribbon, and it's so beautiful! Then I kind of felt that really we should try out the other 2 new embossing folders from the new Holiday Catalogue! (having used the Swirls and Curls one in Jenny's card) Hence this card came in to being.  Using the new Corrugated Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing folder, also the Merry Christmas Thinlit dies, the Oh my goodness so amazing! "Shimmer Paints"  (do you get that I really like the shimmer paints? lol)  I've also added some of...

August 2018 Team Day!

Image
Hi there well today we had our Team day, had 12 of us there, I really enjoyed the get together with the girls from my team, and Simone, (my upline).  We had a play with some of the new catalogue items.  You can purchase items from the new Holiday catalogue from 5th September, unless you are a Stampin' Up! Demo, in which case you can buy them now!! Thought I'd share a few of the things we got up to!  First up I shared a bit about emotions and how we have the power to control our emotions rather than allowing our outside circumstances to control them.  Then we moved onto creating.  I had asked 3 of the ladies if they would create something for us all to have a go at.  Jenny had made up this cute card for us to create: Using the very cute "Signs of Santa" stamp set, matching Santa's signpost framelit dies, also the new "Swirls and Curls" Textured Impressions Embossing Folder, and the new Christmas Punch from the "Christmas Traditions Punch Box...
