Stampin up! 2018 Spring Catalogue Sneak Peak....

Morning Everyone,

Hope all your Christmas Preparations are going well.

We had some good news re Daniel's Cancer results this week, he is still in remission so a happier Christmas this year for sure.  Both sons home and Robert's Fiancee is arriving on Thursday to spend Christmas with us this year.

I had my preorder from the new Spring Catalogue last week and I always like to have a little treat of some me time after my Stamp Classes have finished for the year.

I purchased these two Project Kits and watched the New Crown Series on Netflix.  It was very relaxing doing a bit of colouring in with watercolour pencils - I've always loved a colouring book at christmas even my age hee hee.

This is the Perennial Birthday Project Kit all made up.  Love the pretty storage box it comes in complete with dividers.  There is a matching stamp set which you will need to buy as well.

This is the second kit, the Lots of Happy Card Kit.

Wow! 20 lovely cards all different shapes and sizes.

Both kits have all the envelopes to match, this one has envelope liners as well.

It contains everything you need even the stamp set.

I did go over the flowers with the wink of stella pen which isn't included and it was a personal choice.

Do you need a copy of the Spring Catalogue, Mine are going in the post tomorrow if you have ordered from me in the last 3 months, I will be sending you one.

Thanks for looking,

Stampin' UP! Calendars

Evening Everyone,

We always make Calendars on my last stamp class of the year.

These are what we made this week using the Colour Theory Bundle.  The pizza boxes are perfect to hold the post it notes.  They have a calendar on top with an easel card which folds flat.

These calendars use the thick cardboard that comes with the glitter cardstock.  The magnetic clips are from the staples.

These are the frames from ikea. They are the same ones that i did with the book rings back in 2015.

I did this image on the back so two in one choice.

Thanks for looking,

Detailed Santa Thinlits Bigshot Club.....

Evening All,

It's all go here, Are you ready for Christmas yet?  Ha Ha So Funny.....

For my Bigshot club this month we used the Detailed Santa Thinlits.

We needed a extra large box for a family gift, this is a huge box, its over 6" tall and nearly 5" square.

We made a 6" x 6" card to match the gift box.

We did a bit of paper piercing for this card and I used the double sided sheets to add the glittered beard.  I used a black marker pen to colour in his eyes and glasses.

A Simple card here but love the stars which is in the thinlit set.

The sentiment is from the Oh What Fun! stamp set.

I'll be back in the morning with my Tuesday Stamp Class Project Calendars.

Merry Little Labels Stamp Class

Morning Everyone,

Nice crisp morning here in the UK.

For this week's Stamp Class we are using the Merry Little Labels and the Everyday Lunch Punch set.

I used the Gift Bag Punch Board for the gift bags in two different heights.

You can see the height of the largest gift bag against a normal sized card.  Both have the snowflake embossing folder.  Can you see the lovely silver bauble ornaments, they are so gorgeous and really a good weight.

The lid is held down by a magnetic closure.

The smallest gift bag against the card.  This is a whole sheet of A4 cardstock.

A matching set using the Let it Snow label with the snow falling embossing folder.

Christmas in the Making....

Afternoon Everyone,

Something a little different for christmas cards today,  

Christmas in the Making is the stamp set.  Such a fun set to colour in with the Stampin Blends.  I loved it.

I added some wink of stella to this one but its so hard to photo.

The layers are similar to the floral sentiments card set as I gave this as an option if the ladies still wanted to do Christmas.

I used the layering leafs dynamic embossing folder for the base card embossing.

The papers are all from the Be Merry designer paper pack.

Don't forget to grab yourself a bargain with the Online Extravaganza.  Such a lot of great savings.

Thanks for looking,

Floral Sentiments and Stampin Blends....

Good Morning Everyone,

Well that was a busy evening!  The next window to reserve a Stamparatus is 5th December.

Don't forget the Stamparatus will be in the next Annual Catalogue to purchase without reserving. Those manufacturers are going to busy busy making all them.

While I was at Onstage for Stampin' UP!  I made these projects for my team to try the Stampin Blends with the Floral Sentiments Stamp Set.

I did four different sets using 4 of the Stampin Blends colours, Daffodil Delight, Pool Party, Pink Pirouette and Calypso Coral.  All the images need to be stamped in Black Memento.

I used the spotlight technique for this card.  The card base was embossed with the dynamic layered leafs folder.  I used the  1 3/4" circle punch for the stamped image and a 2" for the black circle.

I used whisper white for the stamping and it was so relaxing colouring in all these layers.

For this one I used smoky slate ink with the marbled background image, the floral sentiment was stamped again for the H and L sections and coloured in with the Stampin Blends.

The black card base was embossed with the layered leafs embossing folder.

This is the Pink Pirouette version.

This is the Calypso Coral Version

This is the Pool Party Version.

You can purchase all the products to make these projects in my online shop or email me if you want to collect.
