SPECIAL SOMEONE MEETS UNDER MY UMBRELLA

 Hello again my stamping friends . Last night I created some cute cards using Special Someone and Under My Umbrella . These sets are both retiring so if you like what you see you may want to grab them now while supplies last . Special Someone is heavily reduced right now and you know it does have that grass die as well as balloons and ballon strings dies !

Here are my cards






If you'd like to see how I created these cute cards , you can view my video on my Facebook page .


EASTER CLASS - SLIDE OUT TREAT BOXES !

 Hello stamping friends , today i am excited to share with you the cute treat boxes my friend Rhonda figured out the dimensions so that the original box idea ( cased from Marisa Alvarez ) would accomodate two larger , different sized boxes . One box holds a small easter egg , the size purchased in an egg carton and the other smaller box holds a fun size chocolate - as shown in a previous post

My ladies were so excited by these boxes I held two special classes and we created two sizes of the boxes as well as a matching card .

I've used Hydrangea Hill DSP for my sample from the class  set , the pink box shown uses retired DSP and is for my Mum . 

These are quite addictive and i have made quite a few ! I actually posted them to my grandchildren and great grandchildren holding the hollow eggs , bubble wrapped and they arrived intact the very next day to Geelong and Murtoa ! A shout out to Australia Post !






Here are some of my girls with their gorgeous projects !




Thanks for stopping by ! Happy crafting !

SANDED EMBOSSING TECHNIQUE

 Hi fellow stamping friends . yesterday was my online class with the technique card inspired by Jen McGuire Ink , Jen calls it the Embossing Folder Pop Technique . 

Here are two cards using two different embossing folders , you must use a 3 D folder . For the 1st card I used the Dandelions 3 D folder and for the next card I used the Tin Tile 3 d folder . I have more samples which I show during my video .



We also created two panel cards . The first card , two versions was cased from Jan Brown with some alterations .



These next two were cased from Gina Connor

IT'S ALL ABOUT EASTER

Hello Stamping friends . During Friday evening's facebook live I created two Easter cards and the most amazing adorable treat box . The idea for the treat box came from Marisa Alvarez , the Kitchen Table Stamper , however , finding the box just a bit too teensy weensy , my good friend and downline Rhonda Laity modified the measurements to create the size box you see here . It will fit a decent size chocolate whereas we were struggling to find a sweet to fit the smaller box . 

I am offering  two classes this week which are both almost at capacity , it has proven so popular ! If you live in the Kerang district , Victoria , Australia , please contact me if you'd like to join in one of these classes .

Now for the cards and box and below is the video , enjoy !

POP UP CENTREFOLD CARD

 Hello stamping friends , today I want to share with you the cards created during my latest card class . I was inspired to create this fold by Dawn's Stamping Thoughts , however I have altered the card slightly to adapt to our A4 card stock - in the U.S it measures 8 1/2 inches by 11 inches . I was also able to adapt the measurements for the centrefold so that a piece of A 4 card stock can be used instead of a piece of 12 x 12 . Those that attended class have those measurements and templates to use in their future creations .

I created several cards using this fold , we all crated the sharks one in class , such a cute set !



























Next up was a simple shaker card using the Sweet Ice cream suite of products


To finish off with we created a simple card using the acetate sheets and DSP form the Art Gallery suite of products .


Thanks for looking .
