But wait, there's more....

As promised, here are the remaining swaps I received at our WOW PaperKRafters Team Training last Sunday.

This card is from my dear friend and sideline Judy B.  She's used Jolly Holiday designer paper with the Bird punch and the Perfect Punches set. I think this makes for a stunning combination. 

And, this lovely card was from Claire Hardman. Claire is relatively new to our group but is one talented lady!  The only stamp she's used is the message from Many Merry Messages. She's cut out her own template and made the Christmas tree by sponging. And the curtains are made by using punches. Isn't it super cute!

Delightful Decorations

As mentioned earlier in the week - we had our WOW PaperKRafters Team Training in the weekend. These are some of the swaps I received from my very talented team mates. I love the Delightful Decorations stamp set and the co-ordinating punch. There are so many things that can be done with it. 

Here is our illustrious leader Karen's swap, which I really love. Because we were exceedingly good (we always are... honestly), she taught us how to make one of these sidestep cards, which she'd learnt earlier from her upline Jacque. It's just like one big, happy family, sharing and swapping ideas, tips and techniques.  

Here's the one that Sally made. She's mixed some shimmer paint with some pacific point reinker and then sponged directly onto the delightful decorations stamp. Isn't it gorgeous!  

Sarah, (one of our newer members of the team, who is also exceedingly talented) has used Delightful Decorations as well and Heard from the Heart, which has a lovely Christmas message. The baubles are embossed which is stunning in real life. Unfortunately my photo's don't do any of these cards justice.

Wasn't I spoilt! There are still two swaps to show you, which I'll post in the next day or two.

Beautiful Christmas Box

Don't you love this gorgeous box!  It's what our wonderful upline Karen taught us at our recent WOW PaperKRafter's Team Training. She got the idea from a gift she'd received from the wonderfully talented Rachael Knight (who is a sideline of Karen's). We always learn something new at our team training - so if that's not reason enough to join our team, I don't know what else is!

If you want to know more about joining email me here so that I can give you more information. Also, until the 15 October there is a special SU! promotion in which you receive a FREE In Colour Stampin’ Pad and Card Stock Kit, as well as In Colour Stampin’ Write Markers--total value of $100.90 NZD and that's on top of the phenomonal value of the starter kit, in which you pay just $339 and receive $590 worth of products.

Anyway - back to the beautiful box we made. Here's the top view..

You're Invited...

I've had a couple of requests lately for Wedding invitation ideas. This is one sample that one of the recipients has decided to go for. I really love En Francais under the vellum. It gives such an elegant effect. The Bride To Be, is totally new to stamping and cardmaking and she is going to make them herself. That's how easy it is!  So, if you'd like to make your Wedding invitations or any kind of invitations, why don't you contact me so we can get together and I can show you some samples.

Stamp Sets: En Francais, Baroque Motifs, Sincere Salutations
Cardstock: Whisper White, Basic Black
Ink: Black StazOn
Accessories: Black Brads, White Vellum Paper, Paper Piercing Tool, Mat Pack.

12 Weeks today...

Did you realise that there are only 12 weeks today, until the big one? Christmas Day, that is! What a frightening thought. It's a though there is a time thief out there, stealing our time from us. To me, it feels like it should still be somewhere around the middle of the year.

Anyway, in preparation for Christmas - this was another card we made at my class last weekend. Don't you love the simplicity of it?  The colour combo - Cherry Cobbler and Whisper White is very striking. Cherry Cobbler is such a deep, rich colour and reminds me of mulled wine.

And, many thanks to my dear friend and sideline Sally for lending me her stamp set and punch, as mine hadn't arrived in time for the class. Whatever would I do without you?

Stamp Set: Delightful Decorations, Sincere Salutations
