Something Saturday - Inchie equivalent card for those with an A4 Brain!

Image
Hi there Creators, Well today I thought I'd have a go at an "inchie" card, only mine (unsurprisingly for me) aren't inchies! The idea behind it is that you have inch squares, which get attached to a background paper (which has been scored up before hand so you have lines to attach your inchies to, and embossed with an embossing folder, which then deletes the score lines. However, as you have to cut your base card down to create an inchie card, I decided to do things "my way" hence "equivalent for an A4 brain" Here are the 2 Inchie cards I received the first one from Simone my up-line as a swap at the Stampin' Up!event. She's used the beautiful vibrant Flowering Zinnias designer series paper and the second from Lee-Allan one of my down-line (which uses some paper that now I need to buy 🤣) check it out for yourself:  Natures Sweetness Designer Series Paper then I got onto creating one - my size using retired Designer Papers (you can never

Hi there Stampers! from 1st November there are limited time items, it's called Snowflake Showcase (although if you're a demonstrator, you can get yours now!)  The reason it's limited time is that once stocks run out that's the end of it, so if you think it's for you, let me know and I'll get onto ordering yours on 1st November! (I suspect it'll be popular)  In the "showcase" you purchase the products individually, there are: 2 different photopolymer stamp sets: Snow is Glistening ($37), and Happiness Surrounds ($30) 1 set of dies that cuts out from both stamp sets (and more) Snowfall thinlit dies - it's got 20 dies in it! and it's only $68! fabulous snowflake trinkets (they're so pretty) 20 metallic snowflakes for $12.75 White Velvet Paper (Oh it feels so good....lol) two 12x12" sheets priced at $8.75 Ok so, "show me Heather"  alright! lol here are some of the cards I've had fun making with it so far: this

Cards for October

Hi there! well we're in the thick of school holidays now, but I have finally found a few minutes to let you know the cards we'll be creating in my classes in October. I'll just go with the order I made them in, so first up is this beautiful bouquet from "wishing you well" stamp set, I've loved the bouquet and bow since I set eyes on them in the holiday catalogue, they are what Stampin' Up! calls Distinktive stamps, which means that they create different opacities in a single stamped image, it's really amazing  doesn't it create such a beautiful subtle image?  I've also used the Swirly Frames stamp set with this card too. Card #2 I had to use this Buffalo Check stamp , oh my goodness it's fabulous! I've teamed it up with the His Light stamp set , I do love the font in this set! then added a couple of the gorgeous Red Rhinestone basic jewels . Moving onto Card #3 this was again one of those I couldn't resist stamp sets lo
