OnStage November Swap

At OnStage we also swap with other fellow demos and I decided to use a couple of kits that I had from previous classes. I used the Tropical Chic stamp set. I love the colours that I’ve used. Granny Apple Green, Soft Sea Foam, Call Me Clover and a touch of pink with Rococo Rose. I have always loved pink and green together which is probably why I love this card so much.

The below photo is my work in progress. I love taking these types of photos as it shows the all the creativity that goes into making the cards.

Blog Hop #12

Welcome to the November Stampers Anonymous Blog Hop #12. If you’ve joined me from Melissa’s blog then welcome and keep hopping along with us.
If you get lost along the way you can click any of the names below to get back on track.
We’ve been hopping for 12 months now. I’m so excited to share these cards with you this month. The colours are so lovely by themselves. I chose the Beautiful You stamp set to work with and I love how the cards have turned out.

This first card I saw on Pinterest and changed it up. I loved the idea of using the daisy punch for the skirt. I stamped the daisy stamp from Daisy Delight in Granny Apple Green and then sponged on some Lovely Lipstick in the centre and sponged some Granny Apple Green at the tips of the leaves to blend the colours. I then cut up the petals into pairs and overlayed them into the shape of the skirt. I used the Happiness Blooms Enamel Dots around her waist to hide where I’ve stuck the petals. I used the blends to colour in the rest of her dress blending the two colours together. I used Night of Navy on the ground so it looks like she’s dancing on water. The colour was a bit too dark so I used the Color Lifter to remove some of the intensity of the Navy. I then added some Shimmery Crystal Effects onto the petals and on the water.

The next three cards are fairly simple cards. I’ve always been a fan of simple cards.
On the dancing lady I’ve stamped the image onto Granny Apple Green and then cut the dress out and stuck it onto the stamped image and coloured the hat with blends.

Kids Holiday Class

Hello and thanks for stopping by my blog today.

School has just resumed this week for term 4 and the last term of Primary school for my oldest daughter.

During the holidays though I held a couple of classes for children.  The kids love my classes and I love seeing the kids being creative.  In my first class the kids made 3 cards and decorated a box.

The box originally held stock for my husbands install work but I was able to cover it and be able to add it to my class.  I covered it in Designer Paper and then I sealed it with some Mod Podge.  The kids were then able to cut out their letters and stick them on using dimensionals. The offset the letters slightly to give a shadow effect.  My youngest daughter helped each of the girls with their letters.  It was great to have the extra helping hand.

I was so very happy with the result.

The cards were fairly simple and we used the Wishing You Well Stamp set from the holiday catalogue.  I used Gold thread to add some extra interest to each of the cards.  These card are from the catalogue so I just copied the design and had a class ready to go.  The catalogues are a great source of inspiration.

I hold classes most school holidays so if you think your child would be interested and you live in Sydney Australia then contact me or like my Facebook page and I can let you know when my next classes will be on.

And if you’d like to purchase any of the products that I used in the class then click on any of the items below to be taken directly to my online shop.

12 Days of Christmas – Day 5

For my Day 5 project I made up a jar with “Reindeer Noses” inside which are Malteasers and Jaffas. Its a cute little project that anyone would love.  A great gift for kids too though maybe a bit too much chocolate.

I’ve used the Merry Music Specialty Designer Series Paper, Green Sprigs, Mini Ornaments & Black Shimmer Ribbon and purchased the glass jar from Kmart.

I’ve listed all the products used at the bottom of this post.
