Something Saturday - Hooray for Honeycomb Kit

Image
 Hi there Creators, Today I thought we'd take a look at one of the new Kits that Stampin' Up! has brought out, it's really fun!, the name "honeycomb" kind of gives it away🤣 There are 9 cards to create, and it's a nice simple kit, would make an excellent gift for anyone who is thinking of starting off with card-making, there's no stamping involved - it's all "stick it together" and everything is included to do this.  At $32 it works out to $3.56 per card (which let's face it is pretty cheap for a card these days!) So here are the cards you can make (3 of each): Don't you just love the matching envelopes? The front of each card has clear embossed shiny bits on it (most obvious on the rainbow card at the top! with my photography) And there you have it, I haven't had the chance to play around and see what else I can create with this kit yet, so if you get it and do play around, let me know what you do! If you missed the video here it

Interactive Cards for August (Waterfall Cards)

Image
Hi There As the title says, this month we are doing Waterfall cards on Thursday 23rd August, as it is a mail out as well as "in person" class I have tried to limit the amount of stamping involved as I can't mail out pre-stamped bits for people, so if you do order this as a mail out kit, you'll just need to find a couple of appropriate sayings from your stache! Having said that I'll tell you what I used :) So the first card I just couldn't resist using this really cute Animal Expedition Designer Series Paper  I thought it was such a cute card that the saying "just a note to lift your spirits" from Lift Me Up Stamp set went so well with it. The next card almost said Hello, but then I changed it to HB2U, seemed more "useable" like this. this one uses the beautiful Petal Promenade Designer Series Paper , and the fabulous Large Letters Framelit dies, with a quick hark back to the Large numbers (no longer available)  And I

Interactive Class for April

Image
Hi there, This month's interactive class is Bendi Cards 😊 I have 2 cards created to do in the class, and here they are: If you choose this as an "at home" kit for this first card you will need some cloud stamps, and a couple of balloon stamps, along with a saying, I have used Lift me Up Stamp set,   I will provide the cut out pieces, but I can't stamp them for you.  The second card has 2 variations;  this first one is where you'll use the stamps and dies from Magical Day bundle, which is what we'll do in the class (saves fussy cutting! ), then you'll colour in the images.  This second version is the "at Home" version, as it uses the images from the Myths and Magic Specialty Designer Series Paper, and involves fussy cutting the images out (on the plus side they are pre coloured for you lol, however the images may vary from mine. and you will need a saying.  The class date is Tuesday 24th April there are 2 classes, 10.30am and

CreateAbles Team Morning

Image
Hi everyone, We had our CreateAbles team morning this morning, which was fun. As there was only 3 ladies they all ended up with a raffle prize :) Val taught us how to make this really cute little Handbag/box, thanks so much Val, I'll have to have a go at it! (we all took notes!) I showed a spot of "how to use Project Life's Photo organising system", as I said to the ladies, I really don't get on well with Scrapbooking, as I find it uses more time than I have available, to do 3 photos, and nobody really admires it to the full extent of the amount of work I've put into it (if you get my drift!), so this I can do quickly/easily and at the very least my kids admire it! I plan to finish off this one and create one for my parents (as I'm terrible at remembering to send them photos) and once I've got one sorted the 2nd will be a synch! So here's a couple of my pages, Josh's 11th Birthday (son #2) and Sam (#3)

Stampin' Up! Sneak Peek of 2017 Occasions Catalogue

Hi Everyone, To continue the sneaky peeky bits...  Jenny Stewart (one of my downline) came round today and successfully made 3! cards whilst I did a heap of prepping work for my 8 Christmas cards class tomorrow, and finally had the opportunity to create 1 card! - well 1 is better than none, and Jenny did say I could share her cards with you all😊  So, I thought I'd share Jenny's cards first, I'm going to get to play with this balloon at some point! She has used the Up & Away Thinlit dies for this card and the matching Lift Me Up stamp set (no links at the mo, as it's not available till January 4th, unless you are a demonstrator)  however feel free to join my team, this is just ONE of the many perks of being a "demo"!   This next card (I might add Jenny likes Purple!)  She's used  the Blooms and Bliss Designer Series Paper (this one is current, in the annual catalogue, hence the link!)  She's also used The Balloon Pop- Up Thinlit dies, a
