Last Few Hours of Sale-a-bration

Another Hold Onto Hope card!   I will design my own soon but I have seen so many pretty ones to case!  This is another case from Creating for Christ site.  You just sponge the background, stamp, cut the cross with thinlits and you have a lovely card!  If you buy this bundle and the embellishments at the bottom you will be able to get a Sale-a-bration item for free.  Just  click on the little brochure to the right to see all the things you can order.

Hold Onto Hope

I have joined Create for Christ which is led by Ronda Wade.  I cased these two cards from the class she shared with us last month.  If you order this bundle and one package of paper you would qualify for  a Sale-a-bration item but it ends tomorrow!

Petal Palette

I used a sketch to try another card with the Petal Palette set.   They are so pretty and I enjoy water colouring the roses.  I did them on Shimmery White paper as I like how glittery they can be but it is hard to see in the picture.  The thinlits can be free with a $120 order but only for a few more days!

Sale-a-bration Bonus

I am close to reaching a goal I never have done before during Sale-a-bration!   I am offering 15% off  your order if you order before 7:00 tomorrow row - March 29.

Celebrate Sale-a-bration!

There are so many great things you can get free for Sale-a-bration!  This Foil DSP is pretty on its own but is also so pretty when it is coloured.   I took a picture of a card on Facebook and cannot find the name of the person who made it so Ivan give them credit for the basic design.  I changed a bit and tried this design in different colours to show how versatile this paper is!  You can get it free with an order of $60.   The celebration thinlit is also free.   

Easter Bunny Arrives

I made this little basket for my grandson.    I needed a little basket which would hold two Kinder eggs as he loves  those!   I made the little box from the free Springtime Foils specialty DSP.  It is very thick and is makes a sturdy box.   Then I used the Basket Weave Embossing folder to make the wrap around piece a little more basket like.   I cut the little bunny out of the Birthday Memories DSP.   

Birthday Bonanza

Everything you need to make these cards is on page 5 of the Occasions catalogue!    The Picture Perfect Birthday stamp set and the paper DSP will make many cute cards and you could earn a Sale-a-bration item too!   Once a month we get a package from my upline demonstrator Angela McKay.   The set of cards is designed by Ronda WAde.  I didn’t have the set in the instructions so these cards are quite different.

Panda waterfall video

Not sure why I can post here and my post will show up on my blog on my computer but when I post on my computer it does not post to my blog on my phone.   I might need some tech help.  
Anyway - you can head to my Facebook business page to see my video of how to make this card!

Panda Waterfall!

Who wouldn’t love a waterfall of pandas?  These cards are a direct case from a video I watched of Dawn Griffith making them.   She used the Party Pandas stamp set and the Tutti Fruiti cards which are available free until March 31.  I will post a video tomorrow on how to make these wonderful cards.   I just st love making cards like these. 

Foil and Butterflies

This foil paper is so pretty!   It goes with so many colours too.  I have a friend who comes over every couple days f weeks and we find cards we like and then we make them.  We found this card made byCathy Harker and we just made her design in different colours.  We used Rich Razzleberry and Calypso Coral.  This foil paper will only be available until March 31.   Ship with me by class cling on the shopping card to your right. 

Amazing Free Stamp Set

I decided to feature three cards from my friends in my demonstrator group - Westcoast Creators!  This lovely stamp set is available free with an order of $60 from the catalog.  There are many beautiful cards made from this set and these are three of them!  The first one is by Debbie Freeman!  The second one is by Marlaine Taylor.  The third one is made by Michaela McMahon!  They are lovely aren’t they!

I cased this card from Leah Dixon And just changed the colours.  I love this little panda and loved her design so just made two cards like hers.  Just ten more days to get this little guy free with a qualifying order.

Mother’s Day Class

Every once in awhile I come up with something rather brilliant.  It took me quite awhile to come up with the measurements but I finally got it!   This will be my class for Mother’s Day on April 14 from 1:00 to 5:00.  $30 to make the box and four cards.  Any order over $60 in the next two weeks will make this class. Half price.

Colouring Paper

You can colour the DSP paper from Sale-a-bration!  I saw a card done by Leah Dixon from our Westcoast Creator group.   You can make this card in any colour.  You just put your sponge in the inkpad and rub it on the DSP.

Free Paper

This foil paper is gorgeous!!!   I made this card to match a picture challenge this week by Hand Stamped Sentiments.   I had the foil paper on my desk deciding what to make.   When I saw the picture I knew what colours I would start with.   I water coloured these flowers and then fussy cut them.   That took a little time but this card was quite quick to put together!

Panda Birthday

There are only a couple weeks left for Sale-a-bration!   This stamp set with the Pandas and the cute paper on the card on the left are free with a qualifying order of $60.  They make such cute cards!  I got the idea for these cards from Angela McKay. 

Sale-a-bration Panda

I can’t believe I am just beginning to use this set now!!  I have been called Shanda Panda for so long I can’t ember how I got that nickname except of course I collect Pandas cuz they are so cute!    I ordered the washi tape from our regular catalogue as I thought it would match really well and it does!   It makes for an easy card.  All I had to do after that was stamp two pandas, fussy cut one and then stamp the greeting!

Card Class

I am offering some classes.   I will feature some cards every few posts.  Any cards from any post can be made in a class or can be made on myCome And Craft Tuesday’s on March 6 and 20.   I like people to be able to make cards they need and like.    I am going to do this class buffet style.  If you let me know you are coming I will  prepare enough of these cards for you to make as many as you have time to do.  5 for $10 or 8 for $15.

Baskets of Basket Weave

I am completing a challenge given demonstrators and was watching a recommended playlist and they made this card in the video.    I didn’t have their thinlits so used my coffee cup thinlit for the basket and the Seasonal Layers thinlits for the flowers.

In love with Basket Weave

I had a friend come over and she looks bed the Basket Weave and wanted to make a purple one so we came up with this card.  

Lovely Basket Weave!

I saw the Calypso Coral Card on Pinterest made by Narelle Fasulo.  I then made two others using my free Tutti Fruiti cards.  You can make such nice cards with this set!

Second Basket Weave

This is my second card with the basket weave folder.  It is less work to fussy cut so thought I would try a square.

Basket Weave and Blossom Basket

I love this Basket Weave embossing folder.  The basket of blossoms is great too!   They can be yours free with a $120 order.  This is one of my first cards.   I can see making lots of cards with this dynamic duo!

Sweet Little Bunnies

I decided to finish these little bunnies.  I found out this week I am going to have another girl granddaughter so Powder Pink, Blushing Bride and Flirty Flamingo seemed lovely me good colours to begin using with my Stamparatus!  Always use the darker colours for the third stamp which features the eyes.
