Keep on Crafting

During these uncertain times I think it is more important than ever to stay socially connected with family and friends. With the social distancing guidelines this can be very hard. Thank goodness for the internet and social media. Although we cannot socialise face to face we can use technology to communicate and connect.

 Like many others, I have cancelled all of my face to face classes until further notice. Whilst this is disappointing it is unfortunately out of my control and I am thinking of ways to keep connected and continue to share my love of card making and craft. I've been having fun in my craft room, creating online classes and content for social media. Today's share is three cards that I have created using one sheet of 12" x 12" designer series paper. 



I used the Flowering Foils speciality designer series paper to create three card bases by cutting a 12"x 12" sheet into 4" strips, then folding each strip in half. The stamp sets I used are Well Dressed for the images and Bonanza Buddies for the sentiments. Did you know that the Flowering Foils speciality dsp and Well Dressed stamp set are FREE products with a qualifying purchase? Simply make a purchase of $90 of more and redeem a free product.

Step up your stamping

Hello and thank you for stopping by. Today I am sharing how I stepped up a simple card design by adding extra elements for a totally different look. You may have heard in the Stampin' Up!/card making world the terms Beginner, Casual and Avid crafter.

New online classes launched

With the kids off to school this week I am jumping back into blogging and tutorials. I have added online classes to my schedule this year but before I explain all of that, here is my first  tutorial for 2020. I have used the Timeless Tropical bundle and Sailing Home stamp set to create this silhouette card. This reminds me of my first overseas trip to Fiji in 2018 for my brothers wedding. I created the background using the sponge brayer and three inks - grapefruit grove, so saffron and petal pink. The palm trees, birds and sentiment are stamped in memento black ink. I love being able to mix and match different stamp sets and I think the birds look great on this card. To see how I've put this all together, view the time lapse video below. All of the measurements and supplies are listed in the video description. New Online Classes I have been asked by several customers if I could create online classes in 2020, so here they are!

Kylie Bertucci's International Blog Hop Challenge

It is now Spring here in Australia , the last few day we have had glorious weather. It is very welcome after a cold and very windy winter. Today's share is this thank you card that I have entered into Kylie Bertucci's International Blog Highlight challenge. The theme of the challenge is Encouragement. I have used the Good Morning Magnolia stamp set and co-ordinating dies and designer series paper. For the label  I used a die from the Smooth Sailing dies, which co-ordinates with the Sailing Home stamp set. The challenge winners are decided on by voting.  If you love my card please vote by clicking on the banner below. The top 10 winners will then participate in an International blog hop hosted by Kylie Bertucci at the end of the month.
