ClassCards@Home September 2020

 Hi Creators, 

Well the in person classes were very short lived!  So we're back to @Home classes again.  For each of these cards you can use your own sayings that you have at home.  I'll be providing all the cardstock cut/scored/punched etc and the extra elements and instructions, so you only need glue, ink and saying stamps.

Anyway onto the cards:

If you follow my blog, you'll have seen this one the other day,

We're using the Best Plaid Builder dies for this card, and the Story Label Punch.

The other 3 cards I feel I got a bit carried away with Vellum lol....

Card #2:  This card does use a vellum background (but you probably wouldn't know from this photo!)  I've used the beautiful Poinsettia Dies

you can see the Subtle embossing folder in this close up photo, I love the "subtle" effect it has for the background, really softens it, which is what I wanted for this delicate card.

Card #3 again uses Vellum, this time I've gone for Christmas, with the So Many Snowflakes dies, my goodness they're so pretty!

And the last card, again a Christmas Card, I've used the Sounds of the Season dies, love the way they cut out the little holly and berry in the dies!, I've teamed it up with the Ornate Floral 3D embossing folder, which I used to emboss vellum

And that's it!  

If you would like to order this set of cards to create let me know!  Fee is the usual $20 plus postage of $2.20 if I need to mail it you to (otherwise I'll drop off the kit to you next time I'm in your area!)  Please place your orders by Friday 18th September and I'll be getting the kits done that weekend.  

If you're not able to join us with this I hope it inspires you to create in your space!

God Bless , Love

ClassCards@Home May 2020

Hi there Creators,
If you order my ClassCards@Home kit this month you'll be receiving these cards to create at home, for each of these, you'll need to use your own Stamps, Inks and Glues but I'll be providing all the papers pre-cut along with instructions and videos.  Click on the link below by Friday 1st May to order and pay for your kit, I will get the kits all organised over that weekend and mail them out on Monday 4th.

With Mothers day on the horizon, I thought this might be suitable with a appropriate saying, you'll be choosing a colour and saying that you have at home.  This card uses the beautiful Tasteful background dies, and the really pretty Woven Threads Sequin Assortment.  Oh and also the Stitched rectangle dies.  I've called this card "Tasteful Things"

Card #2 could also be used as a Mothers Day card if you wanted to, this one uses the Tropical thinlits, and I did discover that the Label Me Fancy Punch does sit nicely on top of the Timeless Label Punch - Yea!  I've called this one "Timeless Tropical"

Then I thought we might do a couple of "blokey" cards, although this one would equally suit a female.  I've used the Smooth Sailing dies, and made the frame using the Stitched Rectangle Dies, also used the Subtle 3D embossing folder, you'll need to have a blue to daub on for the ocean.  

This one is called "Hopeful Fish"

And this last card uses the Garage Gears Dies, you'll need either black or dark grey ink for this it's a little difficult to get a good photo when silver foil card-stock is used!

Last but not least this is called "Geared Birthday"

 Bear in mind that all these cards use your own stamps and inks to put in the sayings.

Here is the secure link for payment for the kit of all 4 cards: May ClassCards@Home Kit
If you'd like extra's of some cards, or would prefer to have individual kits, please get in touch with me.

I hope you can join us to do this ClassCards@Home class, if not I hope this post inspires you to create at home!
God Bless love

Subtle Embossing Folder

Hi Everyone,
I've had a couple of questions about the new Subtle Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder, Oh there's a mouthful and 1/2!  I'll just call it the Subtle embossing folder from now on...lol

The photos in the catalogue and online are very uninspiring!  however if you like texture, you're going to love this, to make it show up in photos, I inked up the folder with a bit of Crumb Cake ink, so you can actually see it. I inked up both sides so I could check both out, as it does look different on each side (subtle'y different - oh I know *groan*)

So then I thought I'd better make something with it too to show it off, pretty much anything that would look nice with a bit of texture would look good with this I reckon!

I've teamed it up with the Tropical Chic bundle, and I'm so pleased with the way it turned out, I even got a "that's not bad, I don't mind it" from the hubbie! (high praise lol)

What do you think? are you a texture person? considering the folder is only $17 I think it's a bit of a bargain, let me know if you want to order it, or anything else of course, or you can hop over to my Stampin' Up! store and order from there.

I hope this inspires you to create!

God Bless 

Love
