Masculine Telescope Card

This was the lovely card that Sally Williams taught us to make a few months ago at our WOW PaperKRafter's team training. Isn't it perfect for the male in your life! I'm having a turn at demonstrating it myself this weekend at a class I'm running this afternoon and again on Tuesday evening. This afternoon's class is full but there are still spaces available for Tuesday night- details are to the left of my blog. Thanks so much for sharing this with us Sally.

Wish Big

I'm in Australia at present, so have scheduled this post while I'm away. I only hope it works okay, since I promised to show you another handmade card I received for my birthday.  This is the card that I received from the lovely Judy Beetson. Thanks Judy - I love it! 

Stamp Set: Word Play, Pocket Silhouettes (retired)
Card Stock: Certainly Celery, Whisper White, Bravo Burgundy
Ink: Versamark
Accessories: White Embossing Powder 
Tools: Heat Tool, 1 3/4" Circle Punch, Blossom Punch

Once again, I've guessed the products used in Judy's card, so if there are any anomalies I'll make the necessary amendments later. 

I hope your Wednesday is going well. Pop back again soon, because I've got a wedding card to show you. I haven't made it yet, but it's a twilight wedding that I'm attending on Friday - so I'll have to get busy between now and then...well, once I get home at least.  See you then!

Word Play

I've not used the set Word Play very often and I don't know why because it's very versatile and there are some great messages to choose from. Teamed with Betsy's Blossoms, it makes a great little 'Z' fold card. I cased this card from Artistic Inkspirations.  

Stamp Set: Word Play, Betsy's Blossoms

Yay - Friday today, which means I'll be going home tomorrow. I hope you've had a great week and have an even better weekend. 

The Need for Speed

This was a cool easel card shown to us earlier in the year, at our demonstrator's stamp camp by Bev Poultney. It is really fun to make and if you want to learn how - come along to my class on either Sunday 29 July or Tuesday 31 July. Spaces are limited so you'll have to book soon. This is just one of the projects we'll be making.  The other is a feminine card with a cute bookmark.
