Cards for classes in December

Hi Everyone
I feel like I say this every month, but Wow hasn't November gone fast! lol
Classes next month are on Maryborough - Saturday 2nd at 10am (bring Christmassy party food!)  Kangaroo Flat Wednesday 13th 10.30am (again the Christmassy party food), and Laanecoorie Wednesday 13th 7pm (see the note at the end).

These are the cards we'll be creating:

first up I love this Eclipse Technique, very simple when you know how!  I've used the Large Letters Framelit dies  and the Musical Season Stamp set

Card #2

This one uses the Christmas Quilt Photopolymer Bundle (stamps and dies), and also the matching Quilted Christmas Designer Series Paper.

On to Card #3:

this one uses on of my favourite stamp sets Every Good Wish Stamp set, inks it up with 3 different colours, and frames it :)

And last but not least Card #4:

this one uses the Tags and Trimmings stamp set, Be Merry Designer Series Paper, and the fabulous Everyday label Punch, which has rapidly become one of my favourite punches! Oh just realised it also uses another punch, the Triple Banner Punch for the ends of the Designer series paper!

If you are coming to my evening class we're starting at 7pm rather than 7.30pm as we're going in for making 2 of each card (8 in total) and the fee is $25 rather than the usual $15.

Check out the next post for Interactive Cards Classes which are on the 12th December.

I hope this inspires you to create!, and I look forward to seeing you if you can make it to any of these classes

You Deserve This Stamp set

Hi Everyone,
well I had a message from my friend Angie who'd seen the stamp set You Deserve This, and felt it was exactly what she needed to encourage her Jamberry team.  It arrived and we had a play today, funny it's a set I hadn't really looked at till she pointed it out to me. Here it is!

So when it came I thought I'd do a little google'ing and Pinterest'ing, and came up with very little eek! 
I thought I'd show you what I came up with for her (she had a go too, and was able to to reproduce one of the cards (then we ran out of time!)

this is the first one I made, not my favourite, the You Deserve This is heat embossed with Copper (not too obvious in the photo, sorry)
Next I made up this one:

Prefer this, I've mounted the 2 small stamp sets together and stamped those using Elegant Eggplant to create a background, then the Hooray is stamped using Berry Burst and cut out (oh by the way we ended up chopping up the large image with all the writing on it, so each could be used individually.), bother again you can't tell much but I added dots of silver glitter to the background.

Lastly I made up this one, I think this is my favourite!

so with this one I've used the lines and dots stamp to create interest on the banners (which I've cut using the Triple Banner Punch)  I've also used the punch to create the 3 chevrons.  There's a line of mini sequin trim along the top of the saying , and some of the sequins have been pulled off to create interest in the blank area under the banners.
Angie was pretty pleased with these results, so she's gone off with these cards as templates, and I can't wait to see what else she creates!
I hope this inspires you to create too :)

God Bless love
