Colur Coach Blog Hop! Teacher Cards and more

Good Morning to you!

Well, if you have just stumbled onto my blog then Welcome! Today is a special day and I am very excited to be sharing my Colour Coach Projects with you all :-D

A small note before you start, I have a lot of pictures for you today, I have made them small for this post but you should be able to click on them to make them much bigger. So grab a cuppa (if you haven't got one already) and I hope you enjoy today's projects!

This blog hop today has been split into two rounds, so hopefully you will have come to me from Glittermum (Niki), thanks Niki :-)

Round two starts with Emily, I will also give you the link to round two again later ;-)

So, I have chosen the colour combos that are shown to go with Regal Rose, and combination number one teams it with Early Espresso and Daffodil Delight, yummy!

I decided to make a card many of us will be needing in the next few weeks! One for a teacher :-)

I used Every Little Bit for the cute bus and the flower background with Curly Cute for the sentiment.

I coloured the bus with ink pads and a blender pens adding Crystal Effects to the 'windows', finishing it off with some scrummy satin ribbon and a rhinestone.

 And a Sticky Note Holder to match with Number One die cut shapes on the back for your #1 teacher! :-D

 

O.K. onto combo number 2 and the colour coach shows Tempting Turquoise and Sahara Sand,

and for this combo I have made a special card with a gift box to match using the Level 1 hostess set A Slice of Life with the organza ribbon to finish,

Itty Bitty punches were used to create the background

and the matching box, I am working on a tutorial for this :-D

Well, I hope you like my projects today, your next stop today on round one is going to be Jane, I might even see you over there ;-)
**Edit to say** hop continues after Jane to HERE with Linz :-)

And as promised round two starts HERE with Emily.

Thanks again for visiting today,

Part Two December Class

Hello there this morning,

As promised here are the other projects we made on Monday at the Christmas Packaging class,
We stamped a plain paper bag with white craft ink using the snowflake from Sparkly and Bright,



and tied a lush bow with wide striped Marina Mist grosgrain ribbon



this image is from the set Gifted, inked with markers in Crumb Cake, Cherry Cobbler and Baja Breeze,



and my fave project from this month, a covered a peg.
I would like to make lots more of these before Christmas :-D .
Designer Papers are from the Jolly Holiday pack,




a side view showing the magnets we added with crystal effects so it can be used on your fridge...




and so we use it all year and not just for Christmas, we used tombow and waited 'till it was dry to make it re-positionable,



and all the projects together,



I really enjoyed this months class and I would like to thank all those ladies who were well enough to come this month and get well soon to a those who couldn't make it,
I am looking forward to many new and exciting classes next year if you would like to join us then please email me for more info

Elegant Rose Breeze

Hiya folks,

Well, we finally got some of the white stuff everyone else seems to have been having so the kids have been off today, they had a great time out in it, I also really enjoyed looking out from my cosy craft room at them playing ;-) I managed to make 3 cards today (of the 5 I needed though) but still, it's been nice -in between drying and warming children.
So today's card was made using CPS sketch number 195, and the colour combo was from my trusty Colour Coach, great for new combos I hadn't even thought of! I used Elegant Eggplant, Rose Red and Baja Breeze with the Funky Four stamp set (thanks Monica xx I received this gorgeous set at out pre-convention party)

Bow tied in the yummy Organza ribbon,

I inked the mushrooms with Marker Pens (share starting in January) and accented them with Basic Rhinestones

and a little view of the inside to finish using the Hostess Level 1 stamp set called Afterthoughts,

so that's it for today, I hope you all keep warm and safe in the snow and thanks for stopping by today,

Stampin' Hugs
