Something Saturday - DSP & Blends

Image
 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. Then this last one I've gone round the edges again with the darker Pool Party blend, but then blended in the lighter one in all the gaps. I actually did g...

Coffee & Cards Class on Monday 20th Nov

Hi Everyone, My 2nd Coffee&Cards class in Dunolly is on again this coming Monday .  I was inspired by one of my swaps from OnStage, having had in my mind that I wanted to use the Coffee Cafe suite of products but wanting to somehow tie it in with Christmas, I got given a card that had 2 coffee cups with Christmas sayings on them.  Highly observant me, hadn't realised that there is a set in the Holiday Catalogue that actually coordinates with the Coffee Cafe framelit dies ! it's called Merry Cafe (on page 46), Ha who would have known? lol However as I don't have that set, I've gone with one that is on the Extravaganza list - on 20 Nov you'll be able to buy this stamp set "Every Good Wish" for 20% less!! on that day only (let me know if you want to see the list!) Oh and the Coffee Cup framelits are on the list with 20% off too! Anyway on to the cards: This makes me think of Christmas in Australia, due to the heat, and to me it's a cold dri...

Got a new stamp set and dies!

Hi Everyone, well surprise, surprise I bought another new Stamp set and matching dies! lol This time I figured because I'm doing a "Coffee&Cards" class I should really have the Coffee Cafe Bundle See? how appropriate! So, I finally set to work with it and created these 2 cute little cards....... The cards are small (dinky I'd say), the cardstock measures 7 x 14.8cm, and then scored at 7.4cm (you can get 6 out of a piece of A4) Kind of loving the cute little Corrugated elements too!  (the little heart and oval)  and this evening I have just discovered that there is a cute tiny coffee cup that is cut out with the dies too that's in the Designer Series Paper (Coffee break Designer Series Paper)! Umm I can feel some more playing with it coming along now I know about that....... Ironically I don't actually drink hot drinks (tea/coffee) however I do like my iced coffee/mocha, so I'm seeing those ice cubes in a drink lol. I hope this inspire...
