Pop of Petals #1

This is the first card in my class with Pop of Petals. I wanted to make one for the Fall.  I used Nature’s Poem DSP.  It is so pretty.   The class is Sept 8 and there are three spaces left.

Birthday Card for Younger Sibling

Who can resist having a little fun with a younger sibling who is always telling everyone they are the younger sister?  She is 60 and I couldn’t get that many candles on the cake but I made a valiant effort!  I decided to make my sisters card to match a colour challenge which was for our Westcoast Creator team this month.   Gorgeous Grape, Night of Navy, and Flirty Flamingo!  It was a little tough but I figured a baby senior as she calls herself now deserved a funny and bright card!  I love the Birthday Banner Stamp Set especially when it is perfect for a sibling!

Christmas is coming!

I did pre-order a few things from the 2018 Holiday Catalogue!   I am working on my third Christmas class so thought I would give you a little preview of a Pointsettia Bundle.  I tried so many backgrounds behind the front piece and gold glitter looked ok but then I picked up a piece of this green I had leftover from Sale-a-bration.  If you don’t have aHoliday Catalogue and would like one - just let me know!  I used my Watercolour pencil crayons and loved the effect!

Blended Season in Spring

This is my last card from the Blended Seasons Bundle.  This is my spring card.  You can see from my last four posts how versatile this set is.   It is only available for another week or so.

Blended Season Christmas

One stamp set!  Four Seasons of cards!  I previously posted summer and fall and now it’s Christmas.  This would be a perfect set for a person starting out as you could use it for so many cards.  This is another Ronda Wade design.

More Blended Seasons

This is such a versatile stamp set and will meet your needs for stamping all year round!   Yesterday was a summer card and this is a fall card.   Again, I used my watercolour crayons and my blender pen.   I did apply a little Wink of Stella to give it a lot title sparkle.  This card is also designed by Ronda Wade.  I am feeling though that it needs a gold glitter embellishment.  What do you think?

Blended Seasons

This is another design by Ronda Wade which we do in our monthly WestCoast meetings.  The Blended Seasons Stamp Set is only available this August or until supplies last.  I used the new watercolour pencils to colour the flowers and then used my blender pen  to blend the colours.

Dinosaurs in Tropical Escape

My grandson and I made nearly a dozen of these little bags for his birthday party with his friends tomorrow.   The Tropical Escapes paper I got on special last month is perfect for dinosaurs.  I wanted to stamp them all but my grandson wanted to draw dinosaurs and they are so cute.  I am glad I kept my dinosaur set.

Paper Pumpkin for August

It is great after a very busy week cooking for 150 to come home and just play with a kit and make a pretty card in minutes.  I made one straight from the kit and then had some pieces laying on my desk and just added them to this card.

Dinosaurs Party

I made this card for my grandson birthday.  The Spinosaurus on the left was my favourite to make.  I made his spine with the bench from Pretty Park Framelits and I wonder if you know what I made his little front arms from????

Christmas Product Share

If you are like me you don’t want to buy a lot of DSP and have lots left over.  I am offering two kinds of product shares.  If you like small pieces I can give you  20 pieces of  6X6 DSP of the 3 packages shown in this picture, 3 yards of 3 ribbons, and a small portion of enamel shapes and red rhinestones for $12.   If you would like half of a package of DSP because you want the 12X12 pieces for making bags - just let me know.  The price would be half the price of the package you want. You would get one sheet of each double sheet in the package.  There is only one of the velvet striped so you would get a 6X12 piece of that.

Delightfully Detailed Laser-cut Specialty Paper

I received a card in a swap made by Stefanie Pletscher and I didn’t have the stamp set she used so we used the Happy Birthday Thinlits.   This is my first time using the laser paper and it is so pretty!

Classes are so much fun!

It is great when you hold a class and everyone feels free to create their own designs.  I showed everyone the Sea Foam green card and they asked to make gold and Merry Merlot cards.   I used  the hearts from Sunshine Wishes and gave them a few stamp sets to choose sentiments from and voila!
Didn’t they make great cards!!

Dandelion Rainbow!!

How do you like my rainbow of Dandelions.  A friend came over and we decided to do this card which I have posted before - only we did it in some new colours.  I love this spotlighting technique and I think the bottom two are my new favourites!  How about you?

Cake Soirée meets Broadway Birthday

This is the last card we had for our meeting last month.  I didn’t order the Broadway Birthday DSP so it was nice to try it.  This is a special Fold Card and when you open it - it holds a gift card.  I used the gift box stamp from my Cake Soirée set and just masked the one box and stamped the other box to have them look side by side.

Different Fold Card

This is another card d signed by Ronda Wade only I did not have the stamp set she suggested but I live what I came up with.   I used the Wonderful Moments Stamp set.   I used Fresh Fig to watercolour the flowers and the sentiments.
