Video Tutorial: Sweet Ice Cream Card (Facebook Live)

 


Hello crafty friends! 

Today I made this little card live on my Facebook Page.  Unfortunately I had a technical issue which meant I had to regroup and redo the video.... but sometimes thats how it goes!  In the end I was really happy with the card.... and it means that now I have two of them!


So I've also uploaded my Facebook Live to YouTube so that even more people can see it. I hope you enjoy it!

Video Tutorial: Easy Gifts with the Little Treat Box Dies

 


Today I have a little Treat for you... literally!  I created these gorgeous little gift boxes with the Little Treat Box Dies.... and today I also created a video to show you how easy they are to make! 


These were little gifts for some of the leaders within my Stampin'Up team.  I wanted to do something small but special for theme. And i think they turned out super cute!


I hope you enjoy the tutorial which is below.  (BTW.... if you love these dies, grab them whilst you can as they are retiring and will be gone from our product line)


Here's the tutorial... enjoy!

Saying Goodbye to the Curvy Christmas stamp set

 


As we head into the last days of our currently retiring products, I wanted to draw your attention to a couple of items that are leaving us.  Two of my favourite items that I am saying goodbye to are the Curvy Christmas stamp set (which is currently available alone, or as part of the Quite Curvy Variety bundle).  The stamp set by itself is extremely versatile, but when coupled with the Curvy Dies, it becomes even more useful.  I also added some of our gorgeous Balmy Blue glimmer paper - and yes that is retiring too. 


I've used it in lots of different ways. Here's another example of what you can do... 




This one features an acetate panel in the centre. I stamped the greeting inside the card, so it can be seen through the clear panel. 




Both the above cards also feature the Classic Christmas DSP. 


Here is an image of the Curvy Christmas set... its Photopolymer for easy lining up:



If you would like to to purchase any of these products - or anything else - head over to the ONLINE STORE.  Or you can CONTACT ME directly. 

Have a great day!

Joy to the World Paper Pumpkin alternative

 


Today I am posting for you a card that was on my Instagram and Facebook pages earlier this month.  It seemed to get lots of attention so I am showcasing it here too.  


For the stamping I have used stamps from the fabulous "Joy to the World" Paper pumpkin kit that came out last month.  I have had SO much fun with this kit.... I have found the stamps versatile and you really can achieve a lot of different looks!  Here I stamped the flowers from the kit in Memento black ink, coloured them with my Blends alcohol markers, and then fussy cut around them before using them on my project. 


Here I paired it with a couple of other products... notably the Curvy Dies which are available now as an "out of catalogue" product release.... although they will also be featured in our upcoming January - June mini catalogue (2021).  The background DSP is the Neutral pack of 6"x6" papers. I've created a product list below for you so you can purchase these items.  



If you are in Australia, feel free to shop with me (click the pics below OR visit my Online Store)


I hope you love my card  today and I'll be back with more for you soon!

Registration for my November Online Specialty class is now OPEN!


 Here we go with another Online Specialty Class!  Im excited to bring this one to you this month.  As its getting close to Christmas I wanted to create a project that could serve as both a Christmas Gift, or a beautiful keepsake for yourself. 


Of course Im not giving away all my secrets today... that would be telling!  But I can tell you that we are creating a beautiful box and a conertina mini album that could double as a fancy Christmas card and gift for someone you love. Or perhaps you might prefer to add photographs to it and make it it into a Memory keeping article. Whatever you choose, I think you will really love this project.  I've posted just a "sneak peek" of the outside of the box above. 


There are two options to register:

1. Tutorial Only - $20


No matter where you are in the world you are welcome to purchase the "Tutorial Only" option. I have set up a Paypal button for this. You will get the link to the video tutorial, and can follow the instructions using whatever stamps and products you have in your stash, and at a time to suit you! (Please note I have used products from the Wonder of the Season suite of products) The cost for this option is $20aud. I have set up a Paypal button for this below. Or you can contact me to make payment.
2. Class pack and Tutorial.
If you are in Australia and would like me to send out the materials to make these projects as well as the video tutorial showing how to put it together then all you need to do is place an order of $50 or more with me through my ONLINE STORE and when you check out be sure to use the Host Code BUJQMEQE. This Host Code will identify that you wish to be part of the class so that I can send the materials out. Click the SHOP NOW button to go shopping!

The video link will be sent to you by email within 48 hours of placing your order. This Online Class option will be open to register until Thursday November 26th, 2020, OR until sold out. Class packs will all be in the mail by Friday November 27th.

Please note that the materials sent out will include the die cut or punched shapes needed for this project.... all you need to do is stamp and assemble it together. (You do not have to own this stamp set - you can substitute with any suitable sentiment stamps you have in your collection) So you'll need the following inks and adhesives (or similar):

Suggested Inks:
Shaded Spruce (preferred) or Just Jade
Optional: Real Red

Suggested Adhesvies:
Seal or Seal +
Tombow Multipurpose glue
Tear and Tape
Dimensionals
Mini Glue Dots
Other:
Sponge Dauber or sponge (sponges are preferable)
Wink of Stella (or you could substitute with Champagne Shimmer paint
Scissors (To cut ribbon)


And here's the best bit.... you can add anything you like to your order (as long as you use the host code BUJQMEQE when checking out)... and that includes sale items if you are placing your order on the sale day (Tuesday 24th November)



I hope you will join me for this Online class this month... and that you enjoy this gorgeous project! I think you will love it! Feel free to CONTACT ME if you have any questions at all.
