Interactive Class "Book Cards"

Hi there,
On 19th June 10.30am and 7.30pm I will be doing my Interactive Class (also available as a mail out class), and this month we are doing "Book Cards"  (mainly with new products *yay*)

This first card uses the stunning Stained Glass thinlits, and matching Painted Glass stamp set

 then inside you have the Sheet Music Stamp set, and I thought the saying "just a note" from Flourishing Phrases Stamp set (often a "go to" set for me) was rather appropriate lol

This second card uses the beautiful "Serene Garden Stamp set" on the inside, It reminded me of the sleeping beauty story book I had as a child

 Then on the outside I've used the matching Garden scene framelits, this one is an embossing die (how cool!!), and the smaller dragonfly from Detailed Dragonfly thinlits

As I mentioned at the beginning this is available as a class in my classroom on Tuesday 19th June (10.30am or 7.30pm)  for $20 or it is available as a mail out kit, I can't do the stamping for you, but I can cut and emboss all the relevant peices, this is available for $17 which includes postage.
Do let me know if you'd like to book into the class or order a kit.

I hope this inspires you to create!

Interactive Card Class May - Twirl cards

Hi There!
 This month's Interactive Card Class is Twirl Cards, which are really amazing, when you open and close them up they have an element inside that spins around (how fun!) remember this class is a mail out class as well as in person - more details at the end.

I have taken photos but they don't really show it well, so also done a short video to show it better, however... photos first!  this first card uses the fabulous Detailed Dragonfly Thinlits, and the sayings are from the matching Dragonfly Dreams stamp set.

The next card uses the cute Birthday Memories Designer Series Paper, which is on the retiring list, so if you want more, get it while it's still there!

isn't the dog so cute?
And now to see them in "Action" check out my short video below.

And down to the nitty gritty.... The in person class is on Tuesday 15th May 10.30am and 7.30pm, please book your place by 14th, cost is $20 or the Mail out class is available for $17 inclusive of postage, this comes with full instructions.

I hope this inspires you to create

Interactive Cards Class December 2017

Hi Everyone,

As promised at the end of the last post, here are the "interactive Cards" I'll be teaching in December, were are doing Double Cascade Cards.  We'll be making 2 of them.  The class cost is $20, and there are 2 classes that day, 10.30am and 7.30pm - do make sure you have booked your place, as there is a limit of 6 in my classroom.  Otherwise you can order a kit from me instructions and pre-cut papers, and I will mail it out to you (let me know) the only thing I can't do with the kits is pre-stamp them (which is only the words) in both these cards. Kits cost $15 with $2 postage.

Moving on the first card is this one:

this uses the Dragonfly Dreams stamp set, the detailed dragonfly thinlit dies, the Pansy Punch, 1/2" circle punch and the Delightful Daisy Designer Series Paper. 


And the 2nd card is this one:

this one uses the gorgeous Year of Cheer Designer Series Paper, Gold, Silver and Champagne foil sheets, Seasonal Layers thinlit dies, Every day label punch, and the Labels to Love stamp set.

Do let me know if you'd like to join in a class or have a kit mailed to you, and I hope this inspires you to create!

Making the Most of Your Bigshot (creations)

Hi everyone,
as promised here are some of the creations I've made up with the techniques I am teaching at the "Making the most of your Bigshot" Class

 These first 2 cards show partial embossing techniques, funny thing with this first one, is that I'd chosen the Holly Embossing folder, so then it was blue! Umm wasn't too sure about a blue Christmas card like this, however the holly really isn't appropriate for anything other than Christmas! So I added the Seasonal Bells Stamp set and the Bell Punch.  Then when I was making it I had to grab a new sheet of grid paper for underneath (and I usually reuse the ones from class).  And I have to show you the photo I took as I discovered that I had Christmas sentiment already stamped on the grid paper, it made me laugh, as lets face it April isn't the usual time to create Christmas cards :) so hopefully you can see the sentiment under my card says "Warm heartfelt greetings for a Very Merry Christmas" how appropriate - lol!

Ok onto the 2nd partially embossed card: this one has an oval in the centre that isn't embossed, so you can stamp in the middle of it. I've used the Lovely Lace Embossing folder

Next up a partial cutting technique we used butterflies or dragonflies in this case the Detailed Dragonfly thinlit dies, to make them flutter off the page!

Both the ladies on Wednesday loved this technique, and I love the way it looks on a card

This card was finished off with the "Wild About Flowers" photopolymer stamp set the Thistles in this set are really pretty









We also went through Embossing with Thinlits and framelits, which is where this card comes in using the Up and Away Thinlits.

I just love the fact that you can do so much more with your bigshot than just the obvious!  

Oh and another thing we did was creating our own stamps using dies.

Again using the Detailed Dragonfly thinlits I've created this card.  A bit of Dazzling Diamonds Stampin' Glitter over top of the wings, and I love it!

If you are interested in doing my "Making the Most of Your Bigshot class"  I have 2 more dates scheduled in May - Wednesday 10th (evening) and Sunday 28th (afternoon) or should I call that a "Crafternoon" lol 😊


Another post to come with some more of the creations I've made from our samples .......... (watch this spot as they say, alternatively just keep an eye on my blog 😃)




Anyway I hope this has inspired to you create.
God Bless love
