Another Christmas idea

This is a card I have cased from Mary Fish, a US demonstrator.  It uses the tree from the Pendant Park stamp set which is embossed in gold embossing powder.  It is then cut out with circle punches to create the ornaments.

It is quite a simple card to make but its elegance is in its simplicity.

The picture doesn't do it true justice but I am sure you get the idea.

October Stamp-A-Stack

The first of the Christmas Stamp-A-Stacks will be held on October 29 from 2.00 pm - 5.00 pm.

We will be making eight Christmas cards with matching envelopes.  Our first two cards in the Christmas Stamp-A-Stacks will use a combination of old favourites and a new stamp set that has just come out in the 2011-2012 Catalogue.

The first card uses a subtle colour tone, Crumb Cake and the ever popular Dasher stamp.  It also features some embossing using the Big Shot and the Vintage Wallpaper embossing folder.

The second card uses the every popular colour, Old Olive and the flourish from the stamp set Baroque Motif.  It also uses an ornament stamp from the new set Tags til Christmas.  This has been cut out with the ornament punch and then sparkled up with some shimmer paint.

Come along and make four of each of the cards to add to your supply of cards to give to friends and family this Christmas.

Cost for the Stamp-A-Stack is $20.00 which includes all the makings for the cards and afternoon tea.  If you would like to attend this workshop please contact me by phone or email.



P.S.  I have also included a sneak peak at a couple of other cards we will be making in the November and December Stamp-A-Stacks.

Christmas is not too far away

I have bought one of the new Christmas Stamp sets from the new catalogue and am having great fun designing the first of my Christmas cards for this year.

I thought I would give you a sneak peak at this design.  It will feature in one of three Stamp-A-Stacks I will be running in October, November and December.  More details about these workshops will be posted soon.

But for now a look at another design using the new stamp set "Merry and Type".

Stamp Club - Sunday 25 September

At our next Stamp Club gathering on Sunday 25 September we will be looking at the different ways of using Shimmer Paint.

Catalogue Launch - Saturday 10 September

I just wanted to show you the cards we will be making at the 2011-2012 Catalogue Launch to be held on Saturday 10 September 2.00 pm - 5.00 pm.

The first card is made using the stamp set "Creative Elements".  It also uses the new Lace Ribbon Border punch.  I have used Peach Parfait as the colour theme in this card.


For the second card we will be making we will use the new "Merry and Type" stamp set and the new Scallop Dot Ribbon in Chocolate Chip.  I have two different colour combinations on offer and you can choose on the day which one you would prefer to make.  The colour come for the new 2011-2013 Incolour range and are Wisteria Wonder and Pool Party.

The afternoon will cost $10.00 which will include the two projects and a catalogue.  If you already own a catalogue then the afternoon is free.
