Class Cards for June

 Hi There Creators

My goodness the months go quickly don't they?  I've just advertised my very first CreateAble Crafting Retreat in April 2027 (limited numbers due to accommodation restraints) if you're interested and didn't receive the email, let me know! (and make sure you sign up for my future emails!)

Oh also if you don't know already there is a joining special this month, which is pretty cool, you can either get the 5 new In colour ink pads for free or an extra $65 to spend on top of the usual join offer which is: pick out $235 of goodies and only pay $169 (the ink pad offer is the better one as they're worth $25 each!) Check it out here: Join Heather's Team

Anyway today I have next months regular card class cards to show you, These classes are on Friday 5th June at 1pm in my classroom (Laanecoorie) and Saturday 6th June in Maryborough at Wattle City Church.

And here goes......

This first card uses the rather lovely Fern & Flora Bundle (stamps &dies), plus the matching Fern & Flora 3D embossing folder (it's all new in the catalogue🤩)

Next Up I've used something from my Paper Pumpkin Subscription (Wonderful Scenes Dies), which actually seems to have sold out already!  They are a special die set, includes the "wonderful", the fireworks, butterflies, flowers and frame. I've also used a stamp set (which is still available!) A Family Celebration, it's kind of cool that it gives a heap of family title names eg Mum, Dad, Better Half,  - check it out with the link!

This next card is probably my favourite this month!  In the class folks will pick which one they want to make, I just adore the little dogs and cats in this Cutest Crew Bundle, as I write it's currently out of stock, but should be back in again hopefully before the class! add a bit of colour and a saying cut out from the Forever Florals Dies plus one of the little furry's cut out with the dies and up on dimensionals, and voila.....

And last but not least this ultra elegant card using the Floral Spray 3D embossing folder and the 2026-2028 In Colour Dots.  The embossing folder is one of the big ones 8"x 6"!

Well that's it folks, I really hope you can join me at a class, but if you can't I hope these inspire you to create

God Bless love

Something Saturday - April's Paper Pumpkin Kit

Hi There Creators

Today I thought I'd show off this months Paper Pumpkin Kit, it's pretty cool and does make some fabulous Blokey cards!  If you didn't order it for yourself, hopefully you haven't lost the chance - if it hasn't sold out, you need to subscribe to Paper Pumpkin, then you should be able to order past kits after 21st.

And of course if you're looking for a crafty gift for a friend it would make an amazing presy💖  What better than to have a surprise box of crafty goodness turn up on your doorstep monthly?

Anyway onto what I've created with mine, and I did use up the entire kit (very proud of myself!) The first 3 photos show the "official" card from the pack in the top left corner, then a couple of varieties, I pretty much used only kit ingredients to create them, except for a bit of ribbon on 2 of the cards and extra glues.  As the cards are decorated front and back I cut mine in 1/2 so I could use both sides, and made the most of the scraps that were left after punching out all the elements.  This box comes with a stamp set and mini ink pad, and if you stamp off on scrap paper you can get the lighter green effect (very handy for adding a bit more "texture" to a plain background)

Then I went completely off topic and made these ones with left over pieces 🤣 and made the most of the stamp set and ink pad.

In the video I mention that I'll show you the stamp set a bit better on my blog, so here it is......

And if you missed the video here it is: 

I hope this inspires you to create

Expressions in Colour Paper Pumpkin Kit

 Hi there Creators,

Oh wow have you seen this kit yet?  Mine has finally arrived so I've done a video on how to put it together, the cards are so pretty!  I think it would make an amazing gift for someone at only $37, you could either send it to them to create the cards, they only need a clear block for the stamp set included in the kit, or you could create the cards then send it on (if they're truly not into creating things)!  I also think it would be fabulous for anyone short on space or going on holiday... anyway let's show you the cards.

So here are my finished cards:

The kit gives you 3 of each of these cards to create, plus a gorgeous box you can use to gift onwards  I think my favourite is the yellow one, which is your fav?

If you would like to check it out and order it click this link:  Expressions in Colour Paper Pumpkin Kit

Check out the other kits available here: Kits Collection  there certainly are some gorgeous kits!

I hope this inspires you to create

God Bless love
