Hi there It’s a bit scary when you realise that in a months time Christmas will be over! Have you started your Christmas shopping yet? I have an idea of what I’m going to create for my family gifts this year but that is as far as I’ve got – I must get cracking as… Read More »
Hi there Our ‘make n take’ at last month’s training was a Swing Card. This style of card has been around for a long time but it’s the first time I’ve made it! We’ve used a number of new products from the Holiday Catalogue on this card. Have a guess and leave me a comment listing… Read More »
Hi there This month I’ve taught the Shaving Foam Technique at my card classes. It’s a great technique and heaps of fun to do. Just make sure you have paper towels handy as you do get it bit messy – part of the fun. This sample uses four ink colours – Real Red, Cherry Cobbler,… Read More »
Hi there I had already decided to use the baby wipe technique when my second card class emailed and asked if they could have Christmas themed cards. Not a problem – this technique works well for any theme. I decided to go with the Embellished Ornaments stamp set and use the baubles images. The colours… Read More »

Hi there Last month a friends son turned five which is a pretty big day for a kid – starting school. So I had to make a special card. It’s ages since I made a Spinner Card. I have a big container of American pennies (about the size of our 10 cents) which I used… Read More »
Hi there Back again with another creation using product from the It’s My Party Suite this time. For this card I’ve used the It’s My Party DSP for the balloons – which were punched out using the Balloon Bouquet Punch – and the strip down the side. I love how our Washi Tape comes in… Read More »
Hi there I hadn’t realised my posts had been so few and far between – I need to create some extra hours in the evening somehow so I can get ahead! It’s now less than one month till the new annual catalogue goes live and I still have so many samples to show you from… Read More »
Hi there I’ve had a very productive evening tonight – something I’ve been wanting to do for ages. I am now the proud owner of a tidy desk 🙂 well for at least for one night! I’ve rearranged my craft space and in the process had a tidy up. I’ll try and take a photo… Read More »
Hi there Today’s card uses a really effective technique called Bokeh. Our Demo Support team based in Australia are wonderful and I’ve had a bit of help lately from Clare so I wanted to send her a card to say ‘thanks’ for her patience and help. To create a card with this technique first sponge… Read More »
Hi there One of my favourite sets from the Annual Catalogue is Awesomely Artistic. I have used it in so many different styles of cards but I think this is one of my favourites. I saw this card created by Deb Valder (a US demo) and just had to give it a go. My colours… Read More »
Hi there Yesterday I showed you some cards using the Balloon Bouquet Punch and promised a tip on how to use the punch. As you can see from the photo below the punch has the big and small balloon but they’re not the same orientation – herein lies the problem. To make sure your stamped… Read More »

The sentiment is from the stamp set Party Wishes and… Read More »

This afternoon I finally got round to photographing a number of projects I created last month – now I need to blog… Read More »
