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 :-)

Pink Watercolour Emboss Resist using Stampin' Up! Flurry of Wishes

Hello,
I'm back today with a CASE of a card I made in August (you can see it HERE). I really must do this more with cards I have designed and re-make them in a different colour combo or change them up slightly ;-)
So, when I made this card originally I used a neutral, crumb cake and white combo but when we remade this card at a class a few weeks ago I changed it up for this pretty, modern Pink and Slate colourway...
 White heat embossed snowflakes, coloured over using an aqua painter and pink pirouette ink.
 Slate twine tying on some Blushing Bride sequins (see THIS video for my tip to stop your sequins unravelling)
Shiny, white embossing. Have I mentioned I love heat embossing..... :-)
 Now, I totally should have stamped the sentiment first, then stamped and embossed the snowflakes around it! But I think I get away with it??
 and a top view to finish today.
Don't forget there are a few things going on this week:
20% off selected stamps 'till tomorrow...
and remember to get the products you need from the Autumn/Winter catty before they go forever too!
And here is this months Hostess code for more FREE products :-)
Thanks for looking today,

7 Days of All Day Christmas Class Cards. Day 4: Flurry Of Wishes Embossed Snowflakes.

Hello,
and welcome to todays pair of cards! We have had a busy day here with check ups the dentist this morning and then pumpkin carving this afternoon with a whole heap of other things in between ;-)
So, I'd like to share todays cards. I think these might be my favourite card from this class... but, that could easily change by tomorrow of course! Let's see and of course you can let me know what you think too, in the comments...
 This pair of cards are very similar...
TIP 1: Stamp the sentiment first (in Marina Mist) then stamp the snowflakes around it.
 Stamp the snowflakes using Versamark and Heat emboss with white embossing powder.
TIP 2: Use a quarter sponge and a soft sky ink pad to gently build up the colour from the centre of each snowflake in a circular motion to make them pop on the matching coloured card.
TIP 3: Add the wooden snowflakes using the fine tip glue pen after you have completed everything else so you can leave it flat and give the glue a chance to dry.
 Finish by adding a few cream enamel dots from the Home For Christmas pack of dots.
TIP 4: This stamp set is available to purchase as a bundle with a matching punch (not used here), saving 15%!
OK, so I hope you like todays cards? 
Please don't forget to come back tomorrow and I'll be here with week 5 of my 12 Weeks Of Crafty Christmas Makes project - so it' a day off of this 7 Days of All Day Class Cards series.
'till tomorrow...
Stampin' Hugs,
