Curvy Dies

 Hi there Creators,

well available from 3rd November will be a new bundle called Curvy Celebrations, there's 2 stamp sets, 1 die set and a pack of Designer Series Papers for only $123.25 - start saving!! (you can buy some of the products separately)

Anyway I had an idea and I'm quite pleased to say that the 1 idea produced 3 cards!!

My thought was to run 2 pieces of patterned paper together through the Stampin' Cut & Emboss machine, and cut them both into quarters then piece the pieces back together to create a sort of patchwork effect.

I've spritzed some of the Frost White Shimmer Paint onto the background and with this first one also painted the snowflake from So Many snowflake dies, with the frost white. (close up after the cards) how pretty is that intricate die cut?

this next one I coloured in the dove from Detailed Dove dies, with a Wink of Stella clear brush, just love the shimmer you get!, and again spritzed the background with the Frost White shimmer paint

Then the last card I pieced together the extra random bits and trimmed them down added the beautiful star conglomeration from the Stitched Stars dies.

Close up of the dove coloured in with the clear wink of stella (so shiny! lol)

And a close up of the snowflake and the spritzed background

Got to admit I think these dies will be so useful (there is more and I haven't quite got round to playing with them all yet!)

I hope this excites you with new stuff to come 😊

God Bless love

Class in December 2019

Hi There Creators,
Wowsers we're onto December Classes! Which are all a week later so the first classes are Thursday 12 December 10.30am and 7.30pm in Laanecoorie then Saturday 14th, 10am in Maryborough, we're going to have a spot of Christmassy lunch together so if you're coming bring a little something to share.  With Christmas just around the corner, what better to create than Christmas Cards?

Card #1: how cute is this stamp set?  #Elfie it colours in so beautifully with the Stampin' Blends (alcohol markers), I've teamed it up with the limited time Christmas Time is Here, specialty designer series paper, gotta be quick to get this DSP!

Moving onto card #2: these Stitched Stars dies are fabulous! And it's paired with my favourite set from this holiday catalogue - Itty Bitty Christmas.

Card #4 is one I've been wanting to make for ages since I saw the Dog builder punch, and the Sprig punch: Reindogs! lol teamed up with the matching stamp set Happy Tails, and I thought it went really well with this saying from Itty Bitty Christmas.

Ok and onto the last class card for the year! I just had to use the Snowfall accents puff paint. Oh and the die set that goes with my favourite stamp set (and Yea! they bundle up with a 10% discount!) Itty Bitty Christmas Bundle (guess where the stamp comes from lol) then I've also used the Gleaming Ornament Punches, Shimmery Crystal Effects and the Wrapped in Plaid Designer Series Paper.

And that's it!  I really hope you can come and join us, but if not - I hope these have inspired you to create in your space 😊

Cards for September classes

Hi there Creators,
Well from September I start adding a Christmas card into the mix (September 1, Oct 2, Nov 3 and of course Dec all 4 of them!) It's my sneaky way of making sure that you all have a few Christmas cards made :)
The new Holiday Catalogue goes live on 4th September and my classes conveniently start on 4th! Wednesday at 10.30am in Laanecoorie, then Thursday 5th at 7.30pm in Laanecoorie and Saturday 7th at 10am in Maryborough. If you haven't got a copy of the new Holiday Catalogue let me know and I'll get one to you!

Anyway on to the cards!...... this first card uses new products, really cute stamp set called "Elfie" and this fabulous Real Red Ruched Ribbon.

Card #2 uses uses my new favourite Stamp Set "Beauty and Joy" it's one of the DistINKtive sets - just amazing the detail! and one of my new favourite Ink pads, Oh my goodness the Metallic Ink pads are back this one is Golden Glitz (but there's also Silvery Shimmer and Celestial Copper) Oh and I've used one of the new "Basic Pattern" masks too in the background.

Card #3 again uses new but mixed with old  New is the "Stitched Stars dies", that I thought went really well with these words from the Itty Bitty Greetings stamp set, and one of the new "Star designer Elements" which are really nice metal copper stars.

Last card uses a set that I keep meaning to use more often! lol and I really felt like I needed some summer time, and to feel warm!.....  So this one uses the Waterfront Stamp set, the Everyday label punch and the Tailored Tag Punch.  I feel much more summery when I look at it lol :)

And that is my line up for September!  I look forward to seeing whoever can make it, do let me know if you plan to come to one of the Laanecoorie classes as spaces are limited at it!  I think most of you know now that the price of the class had to increase to $20 for the 4 cards and envelopes (with instructions) at the beginning of June.

Happy Creating, I hope I've inspired you to create, even if you can't make it to class, and remember if you want to order, and you're not part of my Craft@Home group do use this hostess code which will go till near the end of September: GNHTRZ7G and you'll be in the running to gain the hostess benefits - however if you're order is over $250 don't use the hostess code as you'll qualify for the free hostess benefits for yourself!

God Bless love
