Hi ladies,
Todays card is a case from "stampin connections" gallery su demonstrators, the maker of the card I've cased is "Bronwyn Eastley" she is from Tasmania. My card is slightly different as I have the fold at the top, I also took 1 of my daughters thongs and traced some of the top and then bottom to fit the card stock, this type of card would be great for Teenagers or party invites etc
Let me know what you think.
Have a great weekend

Last year I was asked by a customer that she wanted to learn how to do Waterfall cards, so the challenge was set, I was at first OMG as I had never attempted one myself, however once my Christmas rush was out of the way, I took up the challenge, A Bit fiddly at first until you are sure what you are doing, I have made quite a few of these now and my only decision now is What stamp set do I use....
Would love to know what you think?
Happy stamping

Hi everyone,
I found this really simple but effective card on Stampin'Connections ( an Australian Stampin'Up forum for demo's). I needed a female quick and as it was near the busy christmas season, I didn't have long to create it, so I case one instead, since then I have made quite a few of these, many for my stash that I can use this year for birthday cards. You can see how easy it is to adapt from the cards below. I've used the butterflies from the "Beautiful Wings" Embosslits Dies pg 151 $21.95 to be used in the Big shot or cuttlebug if you have one of those. Words from Level 3 Hostess set. I've also used Pearls and Diamontees on the centre of a butterfly on each card.
Enjoy.

Happy New Year..
Hope you all had a lovely Christmas break, My children have gone to there grandparents place for several weeks, my hubby and I  just returned today from an 11 day holiday to Tassie, Our 1st child free holiday in 16years, we had a lovely relaxing time, did lots of walking and visited places that I'm sure would have bored the children.
Today's card is one I made before xmas, he is pretty cute, I cased it from a US stampin'up newsletter, Enjoy...
