CHRISTMAS BANNERS & ARTISTIC MASKS

 For my You Tube live yesterday I cased the card on page 15 of the mini catalogue . However , I only just realised I'd forgotten to add the red lines in with my Stampin Write Marker ! Here are the two cards , one has the lines & one does not , one uses the Christmas Banners bundle & the other uses the Mistletoe Magic stamp set , for the card I demonstrated during my video , I used Garden  Green first then Night Of Navy but the other card I did it in the reverse order . Which is your preference ?

BRIGHTEST BEAUTY

Hello stampers ! if you live in Australia , especially Victoria you'll be enjoying a 4 day long weekend ! I hope you get to do what makes you happy , you guessed it , for me , its stamping !

Last night I showcased the Brightest Beauty bundle during my Facebook Live video . I streamed live a little earlier than usual because I am having issues with my eyesight , yes I have cataracts ! I find I am struggling in the early mornings & in the evenings the most so have decided to change my times around a little . I have no definite time slot to give you right now , it will take me some time to adjust to a new routine . However , if you follow me on Facebook you will receive a notification when I am Live . I'd also appreciate if you'd subscribe to my You Tube channel if you are liking my style of crafting , this helps me enormously in my business because restrictions apply when you don't have the correct amount of subscribers .

The Brightest Beauty Bundle reminds me of our Australian native wattle & I was delighted to discover their are other colours such as both a dark & light pink & a red . How awesome would this set be for creating quick Christmas cards which are truly Australian  ! It was my dear friend & partner in crime ha ha , my downline , Rhonda ' s card that I cased for my video . We had a crafty catch up day or play date as we call them last week & I cased or , if I'm being totally honest copied exactly the card Rhonda had created & I loved it so much I decided to create a Christmas in red ! I didn't stop there , I went on to create a soft pink sympathy card , a darker pink birthday card as well as several more using the dies . i will not lie , the dies take some time to die cut & assemble so would be used for a card for those special people in your life . For the branch dies adhesive sheets are your friend .

This card was cased from Ellen Woodbridge , thanks for sharing Ellen ! I have stamped onto vellum using Basic Grey ink , turned to over & coloured on the back using my Soft Succulent blends . I  die cut some blossoms in Real Red & Cherry Cobbler & added these to my card . The Stylish Shapes dies cut out my sentiment from the Brightest Glow stamp set ( this set is beautiful & is the one that the gorgeous Merry Christmas is from ). I die cut a rectangle using my Deckled Rectangles dies & mounted it onto a piece of Painted Christmas DSP ! Now , I have several really Aussie cards to mail out at Christmas time !

If you'd like to see how easy this card was to create my video is now on You Tube here
