Up, Up and Away

Hello there,

I have another card form last weeks stamp a stack to share with you today, this one uses the cute hot air balloons from Up, Up and Away teamed with some of the cute yellow star paper from the World Spectacular DSP pack, this has some great papers for guy cards in it :-)

 we decorated the paper side with espresso bakers twine and embossed the midnight card layer with the Cloudy Day embossing folder

 and the sentiment is included in the set too!

Right, I'm off to cook tea!

Father's Day/Men's Class Cards Close Look!

Hello there,

As I promised I am back today with a much closer look at last weeks class, we made 3 Men's/Father's Day cards which all went down really well with al the ladies who made them :-) And if you have still to make your Father's day card (you better get on with it! ;-) ) erm, I mean I hope these inspire you, ha ha!

So, we made a little origami shirt, if you would like to make one then just Google Origami Shirts for hundreds of tutorials! Background uses Trendy Trees with versamark. I love Grey and Limeade together at the moment, in fact my lounge is these colours!

 Mini brads are used for the buttons on the shirt

Next up was a shirt card, this ribbon is just the perfect size for the tie don't you think? Dad is from the brill For My Family set and we heat embossed it with White Embossing Powder to make it stand out.

a simple sentiment inside

 And finally a punch art Golfing card to finish, I love that we now have clouds from Up, Up and Away for this card as well as this sentiment which is from there too.

 Pennant punch flag flapping in the breeze ;-)

If you would like to come along to the next class then please email me to book a spot, we are using the lovely Mixed Bunch stamp set with it's fab matching punch. More pics and details to follow tomorrow.

Thanks for visiting today and I look forward to hearing from you soon!

Stampin' Up Aviary Owls

Hello!

I have had a lovely class this morning making mens cards :-) and before I take the little ones out this afternoon I thought I would pop on here to share a girly card with you.

These cards use the same design as the book from the other day. 3/4" and 1/2" circle punches make the clouds and this one has the cute hearts embossing folder (Adorning Accents)  used behind

  The little owls are from Aviary and they are sat on a line from Little Additions, Clouds are from Up, Up and Away, I am getting loads of use from these clouds ;-)

I also made it in Marina Mist with a Pool Party front too

Well, I hope you have enjoyed today's cards, 

Before I go though I just wanted to say I have just 2 places left on my stampers 6 (virtual hostess) club, see THIS POST for more details 

and then message me to join the fun :-)

Stampin' Hugs from me for today,

Up, Up and Away and Aviary by Stampin' Up!

hello there,

I hope you have enjoyed the bank holiday weekend I have been having a wonderful time with the family and so my little blog has been a tad pushed out! ;-)

we spent a lovely (if a little chilly) day at Windsor Castle on Monday, now we didn't just choose Windsor to spend the day at random, my upline and good friend Jules was at Legoland for the weekend so we decided to meet up in the evening for tea. Laura (my sideline) and her family also live down south and so she brought her family along too! And what a lovely time we all had! All the kids got on like a house on fire and all the grown ups did OK too ;-)

Now, as there was 8 kids, who didn't know each other, so I like to take something for them to do. I went with a notebook and decorated pen (hangman, drawing etc...) and of course I had to make them look pretty, so 7 boys received these (and they kept them occupied for ages too!)

 I punched the "clouds" using a 3/4" and 1/2" circle punches, DSP is retired form last years catty Hot air balloon is from Up, Up and Away

and I made Zoe a girly version, this one used Twitterpated DSP (on promo this month ;-)) with little Aviary Owls,

 Now, it was Julies son Ross' birthday Tuesday so I made a card for him to open as he was away from home ;-) a simple little card to match the note pads

3d balloons, 

 and a little decoration inside to finish

Well, a lovely day was had by all. We always say it but we must get together more often!

Right, I have a list as long as your arm again today so I'm off, 

Have a great day and thanks for visiting here

Stampin' Hugs for today,

Good Afternoon and Happy Bank holiday to all those of you in the UK

I am actually not at work this weekend so I am looking forward to a nice, relaxing time, erm, nope scratch that! We are doing DIY tomorrow and Monday so today is the day off!!

So today's card is another swap I made for reading last week this one uses Up, Up and Away, I **heart** this set!!

I used Pool Party (again) with Regal Rose this time

 I sponged the sky with pool party using our XL scalloped circle punch, notice those brilliant edgelits here again too ;-)

 I did a small aperture for the sentiment too, I like this look ;-)

 The sentiment is from this stamp set too, it's just perfect I think!

Right, that's me for today, see you tomorrow :-)

Stampin' Hugs,
