Delectable Sweet Treats..

I've got a Sweet Treats class on tomorrow night and the hardest part is to decide which cards we're going to make. We're spoilt for choice because there are lots of very cool ideas around and the possibilities are endless. We might make this one which I cased from Ann.  Isn't it fabulous!  Thanks so much Ann. Check out Ann's blog HERE.  Gosh, I better make a decision soon.  

Rock a bye Baby...

This is a baby card that I made a while ago, using Fun and Fast Notes (again.... I hear you say).  It's another quick and easy card, which is definitely my style.  I stamped the pram on designer paper, cut it out and then attached it with dimensionals on top of the first image I'd stamped on whisper white cardstock.

Happy House Moving...

A friend and fellow demo from our team has moved house recently (okay, she actually moved almost two months ago, so I'm a tad late, but better late than never).  And, what a gorgeous house it is too!  This the card I made for her.. I've used All In The Family stamp set on the front which I really enjoy playing with.  There are so many different pieces that it would suit every kind of family combo...

I popped up the inside using the Stampin' Around Neighbourhood wheel.  Our window punch it makes pop-up cards so easy.  If you want to learn how to do this simple technique contact me HERE and we'll get together.

Bugs and Kisses Sweet Treats..

As mentioned earlier, we held our second WOW team event in the weekend, which was very successful.  The talented Janine taught this cute sweet treat card.  Don't you just love the colour coordination with all the worms!  So long as I can keep this card hidden from my daughters (they looove sour worms), it should remain intact...

Springy Thing..

We had a lovely group of ladies join us yesterday for our second WOW PaperKRafters event in West Harbour. It was a very humid and sticky day but everyone lasted the distance and completed the four projects. I taught the Springy Thing (couldn't come up with a better name for it) and although it looked a bit daunting, everyone finished it within the time frame and did an awesome job. Well done ladies!! I can't remember how I came across the instructions to make it so unfortunately I can't give credit to the designer. I've made quite a few over the years embellishing it for different occasions. Here's a photo of what we made yesterday when it is closed.

And, here's what it looks like when you pull the opposite corners and open it up. It could be used for invitations or an occasion of your choice by changing the embellishments. The bone folder got a work out when making the nice crisp folds.... If you would like the instructions on how to make this, feel free to email ME 

Another weekend is nearly over with.  Have a great week everyone.

A Little Sneak Preview..

Here's a little sneak peek at the project I'm presenting on Saturday at our WOW PaperKRafters Event..
I'm not very clever with the photo editing and the colour doesn't show up very well - (that's what happens when you've got a cheap, point and click camera and the photo's are taken at night).  I don't want to give too much away but it's a type of fancy fold...  If you want to come along and make one yourself there are still a few spaces left.  This can be used for many different occasions and would be just one of the four awesome projects you'll be making. 

If you want more details - contact me HERE.  I look forward to hearing from you soon. 

Have a great night everyone!

Lovely Lavender

I received this gorgeous belated birthday card from Sally.  Purple is one of my favourite colours and I love how she's used the eyelet border punch at the bottom of the image (from Echoes of Kindness, which is a level 2 hostess set).  Very elegant.  Thanks so much Sally!
