Something Saturday - Peekaboo Diagonal Cut Card

Image
 Hi there Creators As I mention in the video I was having a bit of a nostalgic wander through my old catalogue (that retired on 6th May) and came across a page that had a couple of fun fold cards.  So here we are today, trying one of them out.....  Theirs is landscape, mine is portrait but the measurements would be pretty similar just having the fold of the card in a different place. Here is mine: as you can see it's kind of a card in a card.  I've used the Celebratory Sips Suite ,  although I confess I haven't used the stamps & dies in this particular card!  The suite has Stamps, dies, 2 embossing folders, bling, ribbon, and Designer paper, all for $138.25 which I think is pretty good! (and just think with the new rewards system, you'll then have $13.80 to spend on your next order - make sure you've opted in!)

Ideas for July's classes

Hi Everyone, I missed out doing Christmas in July with you all, so I thought we could do a Christmas in August instead!, So here goes, I need some input with these, as we'll need to pick 4, and I'd rather they were chosen by you who are coming!  #1:this one is for sure, because I really love it! and it shows you the baby wipe ink pad technique it uses the new Carols of Christmas stamp set, wow the sayings/fonts in this set are amazing! #2 this one is growing on me, I wasn't sure that I liked it much when I first did it, but it does show another technique - Versamark resist, with the new/old Glossy White Cardstock . The stamp sets I've used are: Watercolor Words (always makes me cringe spelling colour that way lol) and Star of Light . #3 Not sure if this is too busy, I really like it but then I'm prone to these colours lol!, and not sure if you can tell but the star in the middle is embossed with gold again using the Star of Light Stamp set Oh and the music ...

Stampin' Up! Christmas Cards for classes in December

Image
Hi Everyone, Welcome to my new blog, I'm hoping to be able to work out how to offer much more with this blog! Here are the cards I'll be teaching you in December (obviously focusing on Christmas)! First up is this cute Cookie Cutter Christmas Card using the Cookie Cutter Christmas Bundle isn't the reindeer gorgeous?  I've also used the Festive Textured impressions embossing folder   and the Layering Ovals Framelits . Next up is this beautiful Silver bells card, I'm pleased with this card, I hope you like it too I couldn't help thinking of the Christmas song my Mum used to sing when I was young called Silver Bells!  I took a close up of the bells so you can see that they are silver embossed too. This card uses the Seasonal Bells bundle  and the Softly Falling Embossing folder  Oh and to cut the saying at the bottom (which is part of the stamp set) I've used the Bunch of Banners Framelit dies . I'm so pleased with the cards for this month...
