Bingo Card

I bought this Bingo Card background stamp to use with my xmas bingo bits stamps but went a bit outside of the box for this card which could be used for wedding ,engagement, anniversary or valentines. The bird is from Notably Ornate, the hearts are from I heart Hearts and the floral thingo is from Vintage Vogue. Not to everyones taste but something a bit different

Friendship Card

I dragged out a few different stamp sets to make this one...Good old Pocket Silhouettes was stamped in Crumbcake across the bottom of the card.For the image panel I used stamps from Vintage Vogue and Great Friend. The butterflies are All A Flutter.

On the inside I used pocket sihouettes again and put butterflies on a spiral cut from acetate...I just noticed I forgot to stamp a sentiment on the inside...it's on my to do list lol...if you have never made one of these before it's very simple. I used a circle cutter to cut a circle with a diameter of about 1 3/4 inches out of acetate. You then just cut around the circle in a spiral. Use a glue dot to attach the outside end of the spiral to the bottom of the card and the inner end of the spiral goes on the top of the card. I used glue dots to attach the butterflies...not sure if that is how it is supposed to be done but it worked for me...if you don't trust me I think they are called spiral pop ups so you could just google it

Kids Class and More Offerings

Busy, Busy, Busy day!!! I had a kids class in the morning and an adult class tonight..I am pooped!! Happy to say the kids in todays class were awesome..they all remembered to bring their listening ears which meant they all earned a treat bag to take home...The ages ranged from 5 to 11 and everyone of them did a terrific job with their projects...I forgot to take a picture of the gift bag they made but here are some of the others

Found this punch art idea on the net...such a cute little turtle for a bookmark

BAAArbara the sheep on a mini notebook

                                    My personal favourite.."Timmy the Tim Tam Teddy"..and I just remembered I also forgot to take a picture of the cute grasshopper card we made...When you wobbled the card from side to side the grasshopper jumped around!! Thanks kids for being so good...will see you all next school holidays.


And now for some projects we made in tonights adult class (and just between you and me they weren't nearly as well behaved as my juniors!)

I used the new single stamp "All a Flutter" stamped on vellum cardstock. The  base colour is Sahara Sand..why haven't I used this colour before, I love it!

This cup card idea has been around for donkeys years but it's so cool...I gave it a tropical feel

Love Pink Pirouette and Soft Suede together..I also used Vintage Vogue and the XL 2 step bird punch.

And last of all a card we made a few weeks ago using the level 2 stamp set Echoes of Kindness. I used Rich Razzleberry for the base and teh sentiment is from the Heart From the Heart set in the new catalogue

Phew, I am plum tuckered and off to bed...See ya!

All a flutter...and a bit more

Hi everyone...if you are here for the ESAD bloghop, just scroll down to previous post..Thought I would share some more cards..Love the new single stamp "All a Flutter'' available in the new Autumn Winter mini Catty. Not the best angle to take a photo but you get the idea..the colours are Soft Suede (new) with Sage Shadow.. I have also used Vintage Vogue and the sentiment is from Echoes of Kindness.

This card uses Pendant Park (kicking myself I didn't use the Stamp a ma jig because as you can see, the park bench is crooked (unless you tilt your head to the side in which case it is fine!)

This one is inspired by Jackie Topa...Love the jewelry tag for the picket fence...The flowers and greenery are Vintage Vogue.

Lastly, I only just acquired the level 2 hostess set echoes of Kindness...such a pretty flower. It has been watercoloured and dazzled with diamonds lol. The background is stamped with En Francais...I just made a few more cards but will post those tomorrow
