Something Saturday - DSP & Blends

Image
 Hi There Creators Today I thought I'd show off an idea that Claire our Stampin' Up! Demonstrator Development Manager showed us in a workshop the other day, I took it a bit further in one of my cards, let me know which card is your favourite! If you'd like to see all the goodies I used on these cards click here:  DSP & Blends Turtles Cards Here are the cards I ended up creating The first 2 I've just used the blends to go round each of the images on the designer paper, I really love the way the images get highlighted from it, almost a "stained glass effect" This first card I also used the blend on the white card base under the Designer Paper to give a border This second card I used the Blend around the edge of the Designer paper to draw a line  (I did use a ruler to do this!) again to create a border. Then this last one I've gone round the edges again with the darker Pool Party blend, but then blended in the lighter one in all the gaps. I actually did g...

Made it Monday on Tuesday!

Hi there Over on the Eureka Stampers Facebook Page, which I'm part of we have something called "Made it Monday".  However as yesterday was a public holiday, the kids were home, and I was unpacking the car back into my craft room/class room, so nothing was made :( So today in my list of things to do were to organise my "tag card" and the card that my Craft@Home ladies will be receiving to create, I thought I'd share them with you today. The Tag Card for those of you who don't know, is a way of making the tag that comes on your bag (when your purchase from me), into a card, so here it is: it uses the gorgeous Eastern Medallions Thinlits to create the beautiful cut out in the card, then the tag itself uses the Ribbon of Courage Stamp set, and Support Ribbon Framelits, along with the Tailored Tag Punch , and the Sale-a-Bration Shimmer ribbon pack (the ribbon may vary from card to card) You can choose to have these ribbons for free when you place...

What has Heather been playing with?

Hi Everyone, I thought I'd show you what I've been playing with today. One of my "jobs" for today was to create a card that is quick & easy to duplicate to go in some special boxes.  The guys and girls at Biker Charity Support Group (BCSG) of which Tom and I are members, decided to fund raise to purchase a "Cuddle Cot" for one of the local hospitals, we managed to raise the $5300 for the cot itself and also raised enough for 6 memory boxes on top.  I thought it would be an idea to add some cards into the memory boxes, as I remember one of my friends when she lost her son, needed to write some cards to people to thank them for their support.  This was my first draft: there are boxes for boys and ones for girls hence the different colours, Oh I should probably also explain that we have had fundraising pins produced for the cause, this is what they look like 1/2 blue 1/2 pink Anyway I wasn't 100% convinced on this card, so back to the craft r...
