Class Cards for September Class

Image
Hi there Creators, Well we're 1/2 way through the month already, and Wow I now have 2 separate card Classes sorted for September!  the first is our regular class, which is what this post is about, the other is the special Gingerbread Man & Sophisticated Alternative Cracker class (click the link to see, should open in a new window). Anyway back to our regular class for September, which will be on Friday 5th; 1pm in my classroom and Saturday 7th; 10.30am Maryborough Class cost $25 for the 4 cards. As we'll be 4 months out from Christmas, we'll be making one Christmas card at this class (2 in Oct, 3 in Nov, 4 in Dec) 😃  gotta work your way up to it! So, by popular demand I've created this little guy with the sliding "behind".   To see all the "ingredients" click here: Sausage Dog Slider Next up using new goodies is this elegant sympathy card, although it could easily be changed to other sentiments using the same Unbounded Love stamp set, the new P...

Something Saturday - Iridescent Treat bags meets Sweet Jar

Image
 Hi there Creators We're back to the same stamp set & punch as last week, this time adding the Iridescent Treat Bags to create a really cool internal part to the jar. Wow the Iridescent Treat bags are really something, also incredibly sturdy, they do not rip (believe me I tried🤣) To see all the goodies I've used click this link: Heather's Treat Bags/Jar Cards This is the first card I made before the the video, I had stamped the baubles onto the window sheet and coloured them in with Stampin' blends (alcohol markers) as they will stay on the window sheet. But this second card I made in the video I wanted the sweets to be behind the iridescent layer (plus I wanted them to not be black!, and the only ink I have that will stamp on window sheets is my Stazon Black Not sure how easily you can see the bling, but Oh my goodness it goes well with this, I've used the Two tone Sparkling gems (very pretty blue & purple'y colours) I've used a white piece measuri...

Something Saturday - Christmas Favours Boxes

Image
  Hi there Creators Today I thought I'd show off these little Christmas Favours Boxes.  Rose came to class the other day with one and I forgot to take photos, but I think this is pretty similar, so cute! The link to all the products used can be found here:  Christmas Boxes products used (if you're reading this let me know if this makes it easier to see the products used, I usually put up individual links for everything but thought I'd try something new, and potentially easier!) Anyway onto the photos..... the front: The lift up flap at the front The Back And I wanted to show off the gorgeous little "Low Profile Sparkle Dots", not sure if it really shows up as well as it could I've just realised in all the photos you don't really see the box! That's ironic! so here's one of the box! Right now I can give you the measurements for the box! Really simple: 12cm x 12cm, then score in each side by 4cm. then cut as shown: fold in the flaps and glue togethe...

Something Saturday - Time for Celebration Ephemera Pack

Image
 Hi there Creators Today I'm showing off this Time for Celebration Mix & Match Ephemera Pack because I discovered something really cool...... They're sticky backed!  I totally recommend having your Take Your Pick tool handy for removing the backing.  Here are the links for products I've used in these cards: Sweet Jar Bundle ,  Old Olive Two-Tone Cardstock , Green "Luck" card Beautiful Butterflies stamp set ,   Petal Pink Two-Tone Cardstock  Peachy Hearts Celebrate Card Simply Said Mix & Match Stamp set ,  the Tools card and Disco Ball Card I also added some Rhinestones to the ones in the first 2 photos (let's face it gotta have bling!)💎 Then I got carried away and made a heap more......  I pressed out all the images then put them into piles of things I thought would go well together (Christmas was the easiest pile 🤣)  But it's really cool that there's a bit of everything in the Ephemera. These Christmas cards I used Jar of J...

Something Saturday - Pop Up Pals Kit

Image
  Hi there Creators, Today I thought I'd show off this kit, which is really cute!  Would make great kids cards (and even some Big kids would enjoy them I reckon!)  It's the Pop Up Pals Kit (click the link to see it) you'll get to create 4 individual cards, and I think a bit of a bargain at $17.50 (just under $4.50 per card) which if you have had to buy a pop up card recently I'd imagine they are a lot more than that!, plus the added bonus of being able to say "I made it" 😍 Ok, so here are the 4 cards you'll create with this kit:  Then the insides of the cards: How cool are these cards?!  I love the pop out elements in them (and in fact even Tom (hubby) was impressed🤣) If you missed the video here it is: I hope these inspire you to create God Bless love Heather xox

Something Saturday - Long Time No See

Image
Hi there Creators, Well today I just had to show off this idea I had for my new stamp set: "Long Time No See" (click the link to see it)  I couldn't resist the idea of making the bodies longer, with pull out pieces. This is the one I started in the video all finished:  I've used the Regals Stampin' Write Markers to colour my Alpaca & Christmas Decorations in, and some of my favourite bling; Drusy Adhesive Backed embellishments , Oh they are soooo shiny! 😍 I'm so happy with the way it turned out! Then of course I had to have a play with the sausage dog.....  using the Brights Stampin' Write Markers this time, and the Happy Labels Pick a Punch to create the Ticket look for the sayings I took a couple of "how to" photos as I was making this second card and thought I'd share with you: First up stamp the dog on the top piece of card Then  add some body to him, plus stamp his tail and extra body onto other card, and cut out, then cut a slit a...
