Something Saturday - Long Time No See

Image
Hi there Creators, Well today I just had to show off this idea I had for my new stamp set: "Long Time No See" (click the link to see it)  I couldn't resist the idea of making the bodies longer, with pull out pieces. This is the one I started in the video all finished:  I've used the Regals Stampin' Write Markers to colour my Alpaca & Christmas Decorations in, and some of my favourite bling; Drusy Adhesive Backed embellishments , Oh they are soooo shiny! 😍 I'm so happy with the way it turned out! Then of course I had to have a play with the sausage dog.....  using the Brights Stampin' Write Markers this time, and the Happy Labels Pick a Punch to create the Ticket look for the sayings I took a couple of "how to" photos as I was making this second card and thought I'd share with you: First up stamp the dog on the top piece of card Then  add some body to him, plus stamp his tail and extra body onto other card, and cut out, then cut a slit a...

Hi there Creators, Wow October already tomorrow!  As I usually do I'm working my way up to having 4 Christmas cards in the selection by December, so we did 1 last month, this month we're up to 2 😊 The classes for October are this coming Saturday 5th in Maryborough at 10am, then Thursday 10th at 10.30am in Laanecoorie and 7.30pm in Laanecoorie. (Please note there is NO Wednesday class this month). Ok so onto the cards.....  First up I wanted to use some of the gorgeous new Designer Series Papers, this one is the Brightly Gleaming Specialty DSP, and the Christmas Gleaming Stamp Set I fell in love with everything on page 31, and conveniently enough Stampin' Up! have put it all together in the Christmas Gleaming suite - Yay!  The other Christmas card for the month is this one, again using Designer Series Paper, this time you get a choice either Night before Christmas or Feels like Frost , have to admit I'm loving the Designer Series Papers available at the momen...

I thought he teamed up rather well with the Seaside Embossing Folder , what do you think?  Next is this dinky little card made using the Whisper White Narrow Note Cards and Envelopes , and Oh my goodness! the stunning Petal Promenade designer Series Paper , and not forgetting the Darling Label punch box which comes with ...

Hi There, We had our CreateAbles team day on Saturday, and had so much fun, I thought I'd share some photos with you all :) Our day started with "Yours Truly" giving a motivational talk for my team (which thankfully seemed to go down well!)  Then we moved onto Rosalie Fitzmaurice from RJ Papercrafts doing a demo for us on the new Make a Difference Alphabet set, which is a beautiful set, and she did a fabulous job demoing it to us. Next we moved onto our Make & Takes for the day, Jenny Stewart had made this beautiful creation for us (at least this was my interpretation of it, as we were allowed various stamp sets) gotta love this "Share What You Love Designer Series Paper", and the beautiful Pearlised Doilies! Next Up Renee Mallia from Crafty Nay's Cards shared this fabulous Creation using the Sea of Textures Stamp set and the Under the Sea framelits:  and this is the inside it's so cool! called an explosion card (kind of like a tar...
