Craft and Card Classes in Southampton using quality Stampin' Up! Supplies!

Hello,
I'm here with a little shameless plug for my upcoming 2016 craft and card classes! If you have been to a class with me before you'll know a little about how things work but I am making some changes at my classes for the new year and hope that you will come along and join us for some new and exciting crafting fun!
For more details on upcoming classes including all last booking dates please click HERE.
**Please Note: Booking for January's class must close on the 5th January to allow time for your kit arrive!**
Each class will now run for a longer time so we can do some more of the time consuming techniques but I'll still be keeping the classes small and running them on multiple days in a month so you can continue to come along on a day that suits you! Of course I will be available to help as much as is needed so each class is still suitable for all abilities :-) And as before ALL supplies are included in the price of the class. You'll only need to bring along your favourite tools (tweezers etc.).
So how about I share some photos of a class in acton?? Here are just a few of the ladies who came to one class in December (yes, that's my Mum on the left!) and we'd love to welcome you to our fun and friendly classes :-)

And here is the gorgeous wreath two of my ladies chose to make. December's class was a "Choose a kit" class. This wreath was truly lovely in real life!

 And here are a few photos of the stunning Watercolour Wishes kit that one lady made in December and I also ran at an earlier class in 2015, this has been a super popular kit and the results are so pretty. You can even choose make this at February's class instead of the You're So Lovely kit if you'd like? Message me to discuss your options and book a place :-)

 More Watercolour Wishes, all I added extra was some of the fine gold thread, the rest was in the box. Awesome!

 OK, so I know you're all waiting excitedly for the upcoming Spring/Summer catalogue but don't forget the fabulous Annual catalogue is still live and also the Year End Sale is still running for a crafty bargain :-)
Here is January's hostess code ;-)

Thank you, thank you, thank you! to those who used Decembers code and just to let you know I'll be sending out the gifts soon...

Thanks so much for looking today and I hope to see you at a class soon!

Spinner Card using Stampin Up's Flurry of Wishes for Christmas 2015

So, it would seem that even after staying up  r-e-a-l-l-y late last night editing this film to get it uploaded for today I'm still super late getting this post live! But you know what they say, better late than never right?!?!
So, I have a card today that we made in class a few weeks ago using the Flurry of Wishes stamp set. I love these snowflakes and haven't made a spinner card for a while and this is what I came up with...

 As I say in the video I meant to emboss with the softly falling folder on my original card - but I forgot - so I mentioned it to my class ladies and they all did it and I also did it on the card I made in the video ;-)
Here's the original, Pool Party colourway.

 Embossed snowflakes

This sentiment is from the set.

 and I added a decorated insert to this one

 Here they are, both together.
Left is made using Pool Party, the right is Mint Macaron.

So, lets watch the video on how to make this card shall we?

Well, I hope you enjoyed todays video?
Here's another photo of the cards together...

... and all the cards together from this class, it was a great looking class don't you think? ;-)

Finally, here's the hostess code for orders this month, thanks for your support :-)

Heat embossed Sheltering Tree by Stampin' Up!

Hello,

After a but few days at home, with a still poorly littlest boy, I'm back on here with the first of this weeks card class cards.

I recently purchased a tub of Blushing Bride embossing powder and I knew, with all the blossom around at the moment, exactly what I wanted to make using it with the Sheltering Tree stamp set! 

I haven't used this stamp set as much as I would have liked as I have been making the most of the fab Sale-a-Bration products these the last few months :-)

OK, let's take a look at today's card...

 I stamped the trunk in Early Espresso ink before stamping the leaves using Versamark and heat embossing with the Blushing Bride powder

 The swish under the tree was stamped in Pistachio Pudding and the sentiment in Sahara Sand

 an Old Olive 1/8" taffeta ribbon bow around the spine

 I used Pink Pirouette card under the white (as I had no Blushing Bride ;-)) before adding to a Crumb Cake card base

 and one last pic before I go tonight :-)

Well, I hope you liked this card as much as the ladies at class enjoyed making it?

If you live in the South of the UK why not join us at my next class? It's Notecards and Postcards next time :-) Message me for details!

Thanks for stopping by today

Petit Petals, Starburst Sayings and Heat and Stick = Glitter Party!

Hello,

I'm back again :-)

I have a card today that we made at class after I made Zoe's birthday card (see HERE). I loved the colours and style of this card but as my next class was a stamp-a-stack I needed to make in simpler and speedier too, so this is the class version. I used the same colour combo of Strawberry Slush, Coastal Cabana and Sahara Sand..

 Love this Petit Petals stamps and matching punch combo and it's a bargain at just £18.95 in clear or £21.50 in wood mount, go HERE to see more :-) 

 and the white embossed Starburst sayings sentiment over Positively Chevron sparkles. 

I have loved playing with heat embossing lately and Heat and Stick powder is an old friend :-))))

OK, that's it, I'm off. Lots to do again today!

Thanks for looking :-)
