Patterned Occasions Cupcake

Hello there,

I have another card from this weeks class for you today, this time using the cute as cupcake from the Patterned Occasions stamp set ;-)

I used a colour combo which was inspired by the trusty colour coach again, it's pink pirouette and early espresso with a dash of rich razzleberry, I stamped the background with pretty in pink ink though as I find the pink pirouette on matching card a bit too pale...

 a closer look at the cake (which is FREE till the 22nd march btw) with a rhinestone candle top

 the DSP is also FREE, it's Sycamore Street DSP and available to you if you spend £45 or more before tomorrow ;-)

Right, I'm off to collect kiddies and another busy night with parents evening again, two lots in a week!!

Back soon with more but if you want free Sale-a-Bration goodies with your order then please message me before 6pm tomorrow,

Vintage Verses Double Dose!

Hello there,

Last week I was playing around with the very lovely Vintage Verses (free sale-a-bration set) and the also leaving us when SAB is finished, Sycamore Street DSP. Now, I had the espresso and crumb cake card panel, which was also tied with linen thread, already made up from an age ago and so I finally came up with this card to make use, no waste here folks!

 I had used the ever brilliant square lattice folder on the background

 and spritzed the sentiment using the  rich razzleberry marker and spritzing tool

So, I loved this card so much I decided to make it for this weeks class, changing it up slightly...

 we used the Lacy Brocade embossing folder and added a touch more colour and the same paper pack but different patterns!

Well, I hope you like today's two of a kind?

I'll be back tomorrow with more cardy goodness but remember if you want free SAB goodies you only have 'till the 22nd to get your order to me ;-)

Patterned Occasions Cupcake

 I inked the cake stamp with my markers for and added a rhinestone for that essential touch of bling!

Hopefully I will be able to share class sneaks soon but I will be back tomorrow with a card whatever ;-)

Trio Feeling Sentimental

Hi there,

Well, the weather here has been awful this weekend so it has lead to a very relaxing time indoors, only venturing out for essential shopping and a sneaky (rare treat) Chinese take-away on Saturday ;-) 

So, tonight I have another card from class to share with you using the stamp set Feeling Sentimental.

I was uhming and ahing about this set 'till I had a play with it, but I really enjoyed playing with it even though it is quite a different style to I usually make, it was also a big hit at class too!!

So, this card was inspired totally by one I came across on Pinterest, I will be looking for the link but right now I can't seem to see it :-(

Back to the card though for now, I used a base of Crumb Cake with a Night of Navy layer and three panels of Vanilla. Images were stamped with Early Espresso ink and using the spritzer tool and a crumb cake pen I aged all the panels,

 We only added the sentiment (also from the set) with dimensionals and kept the rest flat for easy posting ;-)

Well, that's today's card for you, my next class is on the 18th January so if you would like to come along and join us then please message me for more details and I will be back tomorrow with a sneak peek card which we will be making at the next class!

Thanks for stopping by today, I hope you are all warm and dry wherever you are :-)

Madison Avenue and Pretty Petits Sale-a-Bration stamps

Hello!

I have had a lovely couple of days running my classes and so today I want to share with you another make from this weeks class, we had a really fun time and lots of laughs this week, it was fab to see everyone again :-)

Anyway, this is one of the cards we made. Actually it has a funny story this little card. I had made a sample for the class (as usual) and then on Monday it turns out that someone at Saturdays class had accidentally picked up my sample card! Oh well, I simply made another, this has only ever happened once before so I was surprised but not overly concerned. I made the new card with the first class lady and all was well... 'till Tuesday when somehow the very same card had been (once again) accidentally taken home by another unknowing class attendee! Ha ha! What are the chances of the same card being swept up in a pile two classes in a row? Perhaps it was more popular than I thought ;-)))) Lol!

Anyway, as you can probably see we used the cool new hexagonal embossing folder with Pool Party core-dinations card with more of that yummy Sycamore Street DSP too :-)

 the little flower in the Madison Avenue fits in the itty bitty punches, good huh? The little "hello" sentiment is from Pretty Petits and had a FREE matching punch too :-))))

 and the lovely Pool Party ribbon along with this button are also SAB freebies, message me to get some of your very own ;-)

all the Sale-a-bration goodies are here... 

Right, that's me for today, Zoe has a dance show at school tonight and tomorrow night so I have to crack on with tea a bit early today.

Back tomorrow with a new home card to share with you.

Thanks for stopping by today

Patterned Occasions for class

Hello there!

I am loving seeing the sun today! It's gorgeous here and I hope it is where you are too ;-)

I have the second card we are making at next weeks class for you today and I used the sweet set called Patterned Occasions and the Sycamore Street DSP again too, I think you will be seeing a lot of this pretty DSP in the next few months ;-) 

I went with a larger banner and the Large Scallop Edgelit which I have to confess to having had for quite some time not using, shame on me!

I simply added dimension to the tea (or coffee) cup and layers. 

I am also loving this colour combo of Summer Starfruit (my total fave right now!) and Island Indigo,

I hope you like today's card and if you would like to join us at class next week I have a couple of places left on each day but they are filling fast so please do GET IN TOUCH soon
