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

Thankyou card and Tag Card for July

Hi There!
Thought I'd share with you the thankyou card and tag that you can make up into a card that I'll be sending out this month to everyone who orders from me.  I was making these as I was on my Stand at Craft Alive in Wodonga, here I am!

so I was little limited to what I'd taken with me, which in this case was the Brights and Neutrals Stampin' Write Markers, and some of the new matching Brights ink pads.
I'd seen so many beautiful cards made with both these stamp sets, so I succumbed! lol

This one uses the Tropical Chic Bundle, Oh wow it's so gorgeous!  I just love the way it cuts out the fronds from the card, and leaves it intact.  And Oh isn't the flower so beautiful?  I've inked it up with 2 of the Stampin' Write markers, then used a dauber to blend the colours together.  I've used the same technique with the leaves, and 3 greens, effective isn't it?  If you want to see it "in the flesh" just make sure you place an order with me this month. Don't forget to use the current hostess code: WZTSTANH for your chance to be in the draw for the hostess benefits.


The other card I want to show you is this one using the Dandelion Wishes Stamp set, it's one that caught my attention as soon as I saw it in the catalogue! and I wondered how it would look in white on black, so here it is....

and I rather like the effect, what do you think?  The black card part is the tag that will be on your bag when your order from me (my gift to you) and I'm including the extra bits so you can create a card with it if you want to.

Did you know that if you join Stampin' Up! in July not only will you get the amazing joining deal, $235 of products for only $169, but on top of that Stampin' Up! are throwing in one of the colour family Ink Pad Collections, Brights, Subtles, Regals or Neutrals worth $117!! wow, wow wow!  If you want to know more about joining Stampin' Up!, and my team, click on the link above "Join my Team, the CreateAbles".

I hope these inspire you to create!
