Just a little thank you

Welcome to my latest blog post,

For Valentine's Day I took part in a Book Swap where you are randomly allocate a person to send a book to for a certain theme. I have previously posted on the 13th February what I sent to my recipient.  However I was overwhelmed with the goodies that I received from my Secret Elf that it warranted me sending them a Thank You card and a few goodies.

Here is the card I created: 

   

I truly enjoyed using the Lots of Heart stamp set and dies by Stampin' Up! I can guarantee you that these will be used to make more of these cards and scrapbooking pages.  When you look at the close up you can see the detail involved when I made it.

By using the Scripty 3D embossing folder it truly gave a lovely background.  To give a more classic look I used the Crumb Cake ink pad  and the Blending Brush around the edge and to colour the bird. 

I coloured the white Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon by using the Light Crumb Cake Blends Pen an attached it behind the hearts layers.

The several layers of die-cut hearts lifted the stamped heart image.  Plus the die-cut banners. Finally the heat embossed gretting added the finishing touch.  

This card was created as part of the monthly International Projects Highlights where people get to vote for their five favourite cards and the Top Ten get invited to a special Blog Hop hosted by the lovely Kylie Bertucci (#1 Australian Demonstrator).  Last month I came twelth with my Thank You card.

It is always a good time to say Thank You!

Hello and welcome to my latest blog post,

You will be joining me directly or as part of the Demonstrator Training Programme Blog Hop where you will be visiting Demonstrators from around the world to see cards they have created to say 'Thank You'. 

I loved creating this card, it is very rare that I use blue as I am more a pink kind of girl, however I knew that this card would be perfect in Balmy Blue.

Now I am itching to get crafting as I have so many more ideas of things to make using this stamp set and dies!

Well thank you for taking the time to read this post, I hope you have enjoyed looking at what I have created.  It is now time for you to carry on with your Demonstrator Training Programme blog hop and head on over to have a look at what everyone is working on.

Demonstrator Support Programme Blog Hop #1

    

Hello, G’day, Hallo, Bonjour, こんにちは and welcome

Thank you for popping in as you go around the Demonstrator Support Program Blog Hop, you will get to see lots of Independent Demonstrators from around the world showing you what they have been crafting.

Today I will be sharing this card that I made several of which I will have ready to send out as and when needed.  I am not sure if I am the only one, but there is something that fascinates me about feathers, so when I chose to use Stampin’ Up!’s Tasteful Touches stamp set from the Annual CatalogueI knew that the feather had to be embossed using Gold Embossing Powder.   

Oh yes, my cards did involve some fussy cutting but you either love it or hate it, personally I LOVE IT!  I have been known to even fussy cut some stamped images even though I have the matching dies too, I just find it so relaxing.

I hope you have enjoyed visiting and have fun on the rest of your hop.  Hope to see you again soon.

All it needed was a bit of crafty friend time...

After a much-needed crafting session with a close crafty friend I was really happy to find my mojo has slowly returned and has left me chomping at the bit!

 

When we were crafting together, I loved the One Sheet Wonder sheet (OSW) that Sarah had recently created, so we did one together using the same Stampin’ Up! products. It was nice to be in the pupil’s seat for once and not have to think too hard. 

A One Sheet Wonder is where you randomly stamp all over a sheet of card to create your own background sheet, it is really easy to do, however it takes me longer as I struggle with ‘random’ so I have to stamp in an ‘organised random’ kind of way!  The background was created by dragging a Stampin; Up! Daffodil Delight ink pad across the card and then just go for it stamp all over until you are happy with your sheet.  Remember that it will look different when you cut your card up.

        

Once you have completed stamping your sheet of card you then cut it up however you want to make card toppers ready to work on to make your completed cards. I chose to cut mine into four pieces (9.5cm x 13.85cm) ready for mounting onto C6 cards.

Now I have the bug for making more One Sheet Wonders using various Stampin’ Up! products, this one was very product heavy but they can be created just using one or maybe two stamps sets. Watch this space as I have a feeling more OSW sheets will follow.

Please see below the supply list of the products used in these projects:

I hope you enjoyed reading this post and come back to see what other projects I have created.
