JOSEPH'S COAT TECHNIQUE USING GORGEOUS LEAVES

 Hi stamping friends ! It"s been a few weeks since I last posted ! We moved house and had been in our old house 40 years so it was huge ! Happily we are setting in and the most important room in the house - my craft room of course - is all set up and I am loving it ! This is the very first time ever that I have had an actual craft room so you can imagine how that feels ! Friday night I returned to my Facebook Lives and couldn't wait to share wth what I had created . For this card I used the Joseph's coat technique as demonstrated in the video . I have not used this for quite a while so I thought some of my new stampers would like to see how this effect is achieved . I cased this card from Sandi McIvor , thank you Sandi .



Following on after that I had found an embossed piece of Basic White so I proceeded to 'wing it' for this next card . I hope you like it !



Here is the video and if you didn't take a screen shot I have given you the measurements I used here 
Card Base is 1/2 sheet of Au A4 scored in half @ 10.5 cm to give you a 14.85 x 10.5 base
BW 14.3 x 10 cm
        Just Jade 13.8 x 9.5 cm
BW 13.3 x 9 cm
BW 12.8 x 8.5 cm



Thanks so much for visiting my blog today and have a beautiful Sunday , the weather is quite nice here in Kerang , Victoria , Australia

DRY EMBOSSING WITH DIES


Hello stamping friends.  In last nights video I demonstrated how to use your dies to dry emboss . You may need to use a shim and , if wanting to use basic whiter your embossing you may also find you need to spritz it so that it will not crack .





If you'd like to see how I did this I have a video here

ZENTANGLE CLASS IN THE MAIL

Hello stamping friends . Registration for my Zentangle class closed yesterday so now I can show samples of the cards I created . I was inspired to re visit this technique by Sarah Sayers . Thank you Sarah , I love being part of the Stampin ' Up ! community where my stamping sisters freely share their ideas . There are no instructions for this class but if you're quick and live in Australia I'd be happy to cut a kit for you .







 I also created two  simple cards as well .




Thanks for visiting my blog today .

JULY ON LINE CLASS

 Hi stamping friends . Today I created these cards during my Facebook Live on line class - this was to be an in person class but as we are under Covid lockdown restrictions in Victoria , Australia , compromises had to be made so that the class could still go ahead on line .

The first card was a tower card which I cased from Julie Davison . I have decorated my card using Hand Penned and I can't wait to see how my class decorated theirs using their own stash!


Next up was a quick fun fold which was originally going to be the turtle one I created here for my Facebook Live but this needed to be modified as well ! 
I used the plants from Bloom Where You Are Planted DSP and gave some of the ladies those to use as well , some chose to use their own supplies . Isnt it amazing how different a card can look by just changing some of the elements ?


The last card was cased from Terri Gaines and those that didn't own these sets were going to have to improvise to complete this card !


I hope you enjoyed seeing what I created today .
