Something Saturday - Brightest Birthday Kit

-

  Hi there Creators Today we're checking out one of the new kits, I have to say WOW!, maybe it's the holographic blingy bits (ooooo bling....🤣)  if you're a regular reader of my blog or watch my YouTube or Facebook channels then you'll know I can't resist bling.  Anyway check out the kit here: Brightest Birthday Kit And here are the cards it makes.... oh and their matching (also blingy) envelopes. Then you'll notice on the first card with the balloons it has a box that has the holographic outline, which is actually a sticker, so in the video I show you how to get the sticker off and onto a separate piece of card without having to pick it off and re-piece it yourself. And this is the card I made with it:  I probably should have used the same Azure Afternoon colour, but I had this piece of Shy Shamrock hanging around my desk, so chose to use that instead, and seeing as the star stamp hadn't been used I figured I should put it into action.  Its not a bad littl...

Hi Everyone, I have the class cards sorted for April, although I have an extra, so I need your help deciding which ones to use! Class dates in April are Maryborough Saturday 1st April at 10am, and Laanecoorie Wednesday 19th April (owing to School holidays, there's no Bendigo class and the Laanecoorie one has been pushed back a week)  Anyway......... Here is the line up:  Card#1 uses the Tree builder Punch and Sprinkles of Life Stamp set Card #2 uses the Medium Star Punch and Marquee Messages Stamp set Card #3 uses one of my newest purchases!  The Dragonfly Dreams bundle (stamps and thinlits) Card #4 uses, again one of my newest purchases!  Special Reason bundle (again Stamps and thinlits)  Card #5 (last one) this one uses a stamp set I don't think I've used in a while!  Crazy about You, it has a heap of great words in it, so potentially if you didn't want to make an Easter card there's heaps of alternatives! So.... tell m...

My First play with Special Reason Bundle

Hi Everyone, well I thought I'd share quickly my first play with my new Stamp set and Dies, Special Reason Stamp set, and Stylish Stems Framelit dies (Special Reason bundle) With this card I have used the 2 flower dies to cut out from the face of the card, although I have to admit they didn't "pop" in the way I thought they would, I tried adding coloured card under them, but the only one that really popped was black and that wasn't quite the impression I wanted (black flowers - lol), so after stamping all over the card, I decided to daub over top of the cut out pieces, which seems to have worked ok.  I ended up adding Vellum under the cut out's  so you could write in the card without it showing too much.  It's probably not my absolute favourite card, but it's growing on me - lol, what do you think? I'll try and find some more time soon to play with it again....... watch this space as they say I hope it inspires you to create God Bless lov...
