Friendly Silhouette Dies

Hi there Creators

I'm on a roll! 3rd day of blogging lol  this time I've use the Friendly Silhouette Dies - I know they're not new to the catalogue, but they are new to me 😀 I think they're pretty cool, there's 4 dies in the pack, 3 of them are large edgelit type dies, and create a scene, which I love.

Anyway you're probably not here to hear me waffle on, so we'll commence with the evidence......

this first card uses the die that cuts out the palm trees, I've done this in white card, then masked a circle for the moon, brayered over the background, and attached it onto an Early Espresso piece of card, which then is attached to the main card, it's pretty effective isn't it?

This second card uses the flowers die cut from white card, I've coloured it up with the markers and stuck it down onto the card, voila nice and easy!

My last card is possibly my favourite, (ties with the palm trees! lol)  for this one again I've used white card, but used both the negative and positive parts of the cut to add more bulk. Again coloured with the Stampin' Write Markers.  I've mounted this directly onto the Old Olive cardstock.  Added bonus the Story label punch and the Label Me Fancy punch seem to happily sit together!

Thanks for joining me today, let me know which is your favourite!

Hope these inspire you to craft in your space.

God Bless love

Just a spot of gorgeous papers!

Hi there Creators,
Well I was looking through my stache of Designer Series Papers (DSP), and came across quite a few scraps in my Bird Ballad DSP file (my DSP's live in clear files),  and as I really needed some "therapy crafting time"  I decided to make up a few cards with some of the scraps (Oh my goodness there is still so much more lol)  I got through 8 cards by the time I had to go and do something else!

Anyway I thought I'd share......

 You might notice it's the same saying in each one, partly because I love this "sending hugs" from Perfectly Framed Stamp set (which is also on the retiring list and has been reduced from $28 down to $11.20, but it's on low inventory, so if you want it get it asap!) and partly because it was all about the paper and I couldn't be bothered to find another saying, I've also used the same punch "Label Me Fancy Punch" for the inside and outside of the label bits, just reduced the size of it for the saying and left it whole (in some cases) for the outer part

Oh isn't this paper so pretty? it's on the retiring list and it's reduced!! bonus, $20 for a pack of 12 papers is now down to $16 the papers are 12"x12"  If you want to check it out click on this link: Bird Ballad DSP.
I hope these inspire you to (either purchase the pack of DSP lol) or just play around with the papers you have at home.

ClassCards@Home May 2020

Hi there Creators,
If you order my ClassCards@Home kit this month you'll be receiving these cards to create at home, for each of these, you'll need to use your own Stamps, Inks and Glues but I'll be providing all the papers pre-cut along with instructions and videos.  Click on the link below by Friday 1st May to order and pay for your kit, I will get the kits all organised over that weekend and mail them out on Monday 4th.

With Mothers day on the horizon, I thought this might be suitable with a appropriate saying, you'll be choosing a colour and saying that you have at home.  This card uses the beautiful Tasteful background dies, and the really pretty Woven Threads Sequin Assortment.  Oh and also the Stitched rectangle dies.  I've called this card "Tasteful Things"

Card #2 could also be used as a Mothers Day card if you wanted to, this one uses the Tropical thinlits, and I did discover that the Label Me Fancy Punch does sit nicely on top of the Timeless Label Punch - Yea!  I've called this one "Timeless Tropical"

Then I thought we might do a couple of "blokey" cards, although this one would equally suit a female.  I've used the Smooth Sailing dies, and made the frame using the Stitched Rectangle Dies, also used the Subtle 3D embossing folder, you'll need to have a blue to daub on for the ocean.  

This one is called "Hopeful Fish"

And this last card uses the Garage Gears Dies, you'll need either black or dark grey ink for this it's a little difficult to get a good photo when silver foil card-stock is used!

Last but not least this is called "Geared Birthday"

 Bear in mind that all these cards use your own stamps and inks to put in the sayings.

Here is the secure link for payment for the kit of all 4 cards: May ClassCards@Home Kit

I hope you can join us to do this ClassCards@Home class, if not I hope this post inspires you to create at home!

Class cards for April, with a difference...

Hi there Creators!

Well the Corona-virus seems to have brought the world to a standstill, however I don't believe it has to bring our creating to a standstill! especially as a spot of crafting is so de-stressing and helps us to focus on more positive thoughts!

So I'm bringing you ClassCards@home....  You bring the stamps, ink and glue, I'll "bring" the rest of the supplies.   Here's how it works, click on the link below by Friday 3rd April to order and pay for your kit, I will get the kits all organised over that weekend and mail them out on Monday 6th.
I'll be offering a video which I'll post on here, to show you how to pop your cards together, as well sending the usual paper instructions with your kit.

And here is my first ever ClassCards@Home..... cards :)

First card is a nice bright one using the Layering Circle dies, and the gorgeous Iridescent Sequin assortment.

 

The next card uses the 2 Daisy Punches - the larger one is just called Daisy Punch and the smaller one is called the medium daisy punch, I've paired it up with the Detailed Bands Dies

Card #3 uses the lovely "Tropical Oasis Designer Series Paper", the Coastal Weave 3D Embossing folder, the Braided Burlap trim and the Label Me Lovely Punch

And the last card for April is this one which uses the brand new (from 1st April) Ornate Garden Designer Series Paper, The Ornate Layers Dies, White Flax Ribbon, and the Label Me Fancy Punch

 Bear in mind that all these cards use your own stamps and inks to put in the sayings.
