Something Saturday - Hooray for Honeycomb Kit

Image
 Hi there Creators, Today I thought we'd take a look at one of the new Kits that Stampin' Up! has brought out, it's really fun!, the name "honeycomb" kind of gives it away🤣 There are 9 cards to create, and it's a nice simple kit, would make an excellent gift for anyone who is thinking of starting off with card-making, there's no stamping involved - it's all "stick it together" and everything is included to do this.  At $32 it works out to $3.56 per card (which let's face it is pretty cheap for a card these days!) So here are the cards you can make (3 of each): Don't you just love the matching envelopes? The front of each card has clear embossed shiny bits on it (most obvious on the rainbow card at the top! with my photography) And there you have it, I haven't had the chance to play around and see what else I can create with this kit yet, so if you get it and do play around, let me know what you do! If you missed the video here it

ClassCards@Home for August

 Hi there Creators,  Well, having made up cards to be done with me, we've been locked down again! hence I've made up 4 more cards that you can use your own stamp wording with.  This way you can order the kit and do them at home (and dream of getting together for a class again.....) Kit cost $20 plus $2.20 for postage (if I need to mail them to you) please order by 14th, I'll make up the kits that weekend, and either mail them on the Monday or wait till I'm in your area and deliver them off as soon as I can after that. Ok, so the cards are: First Up, it's been Wintery and raining, so I had a need for some sunshine lol, I chose to utilize the Friendly Silhouette dies !  I made this card up, then decided it would actually make quite a cool retirement card, and it's the first time I've used this saying from Itty Bitty Greetings such a handy set! After this card, I couldn't resist using some of the new goodies I have from the August to December Mini catalog

Friendly Silhouette Dies

Hi there Creators I'm on a roll! 3rd day of blogging lol  this time I've use the Friendly Silhouette Dies - I know they're not new to the catalogue, but they are new to me 😀 I think they're pretty cool, there's 4 dies in the pack, 3 of them are large edgelit type dies, and create a scene, which I love. Anyway you're probably not here to hear me waffle on, so we'll commence with the evidence...... this first card uses the die that cuts out the palm trees, I've done this in white card, then masked a circle for the moon, brayered over the background, and attached it onto an Early Espresso piece of card, which then is attached to the main card, it's pretty effective isn't it? This second card uses the flowers die cut from white card, I've coloured it up with the markers and stuck it down onto the card, voila nice and easy! My last card is possibly my favourite, (ties with the palm trees! lol)  for this one again I've used white card, but us
