Hi There Creators, Today I needed a new notebook for my sermon notes, so I thought what better than to show you how I decorate up notebooks as presies for others, (and myself)  I buy mine from Kmart, but I don't think it would matter where you buy them. And on to the photos:  My notebook started off without the extra elastic, and at the end of my video I added an extra section to show how I add the elastic to it to keep it closed when not in use. But basically you just punch two small holes in the backboard of your notebook (top & bottom) thread through the elastic and tie it tight enough that it will loop round the front and not be baggy.  I've also given my Designer Paper 2 mats one in Copper clay and the other as Pretty Peacock.  It really is a case of measure your notebook and decide on your own sizes!  the last thing I did was add a length of ribbon tied to the top of the spiral binding (make sure you only tie it to one piece of wire (not the double loop) as otherwise

 Hi There Creators Today I was showing off the Bright & Beautiful Memories & More Cards & Envelopes and also the matching Bright & Beautiful Memories & More Card Pack (bit of a mouthful!)  However if you want to make a heap of quick and easy cards this is the way to go! You get 20 base cards of 2 designs in the pack with matching (absolutely gorgeous envelopes!) And way more cards in the card pack, to see them all check out the video. Anyway, here are the cards I made up with some of them, I only added some of the Adhesive Backed sequins trio for a bit of bling, I've used some of the stickers in the pack too, oh and one stamp from the matching Beautiful Balloons stamp set in the second card If you missed the video - here it is 😁 I hope this inspires you to create! God Bless love Heather xox

 Hi there Creators, We're onto Week 3 of the Designer Paper sale (which goes all of June)  and I'm still kind of stuck on the AMAZING Stargazing Paper (currently on sale for $18.48 from $21.75), it is actually part of a whole suite Stargazing Suite, but the stamp set didn't really appeal to me, however the papers are a different matter......  Oh and check out the Holographic Trio Papers (oh WOW!) having said that I haven't used them in these projects! Also there's a joining deal on during June too!  you can get an extra $48 on the normal starter kit's amazing value, so that's: Join my team in June and pick $283 of goodies but only pay $169!!  wow!  If you're interested ask me for more details - or if you know you're sure, go here:  Join Heather's team However I'm guessing you want to see the cards, and get the measurements, so here goes.................. by the way I think they might be called a Reverse bridge fold card, but I wouldn&

 Hi there Creators, Today I thought I'd show you how to make a card out of designer papers that shows off both sides of the papers (let's face it when we look at these gorgeous papers sometimes its hard to know which side is the one we want to use!) - problem solved - use both sides 🤣 And BONUS there's a designer Paper sale on all of June - woo hoo! (funnily enough both of these papers are in it 😁)   Also discovered there's a joining deal on during June too!  you can get an extra $48 on the normal starter kit's amazing value, so that's: Join my team in June and pick $283 of goodies but only pay $169!!  wow!  If you're interested ask me for more details - or if you know you're sure, go here:  Join Heather's team Here are the cards I made up, this one from the video this first one uses the fabulous Zoo Crew and the back of the card. Then this one I made up afterwards to see if I could make up a landscape card too How cool is this Stargazing Designe

 Hi There Creators well today we're doing a spot of folding - Go the Origami boxes!  I used to make an origami box like this (with origami, it doesn't require glue) I wondered how I could make it so it displayed both sides of the Designer Paper, and now I've worked it out (kind of by accident!, and mine requires glue!) 🤣 Currently until the end of June there is a Designer Paper sale on - woo hoo hopefully you'll find the papers here:  Patterned Papers   The one I'm using today is called Stargazing it's quite gorgeous (as are most of the Stampin' Up! Papers)! Anyway here are the photos then I'll attempt to explain how to make them, ummmm! Ok here goes, you will need a square of Designer Paper (that is patterned on both sides) Fold the square in 1/2 so you have a rectangle, then open and fold in 1/2 the other way and open it up again (you'll now have a + in the square) now fold the corners in to the centre Then turn the whole thing over and fold the s

 Hi there Creators,  I usually do a Mega Class in January and July (normally I try and do Christmas in July) however this year as the Annual Catalogue has only just come out we don't have much of a Christmas offering, so I'm going with Kids and Big Kids (let's face it we all need Big Kids cards! - especially if you have any guys in your life - husband/kids/nephews......)  I know my husband is just a big kid 🤣  Might have to try and do Christmas later after my trip to UK. A sneak peek of the cards will be happening in my videos throughout June, however here is a conglomerate photo to whet your appetite: This time rather than receiving a Stamp set I thought we go with something different but useful......Stampin' Write Markers, very handy as you can colour your stamps with these and stamp, or use them to colour in images (and in fact other things you can do with them eg create an interesting background by colouring on a clear block and stamping it)   You'll also re
