June Thankyou cards

Each month I make new Thankyou cards, that I place in with people's orders, half the fun of stamping and creating is to recieve home made cards, who doesn't like to recieve cards, so for every order placed with me, you will always get a Thankyou card, this is June's.
 I have used old olive and the Fresh cuts stamp set and notecards. Stamp set is found on pg 91  $38.95  for 5. Fresh cut note cards are on pg123  $17.50 for  15 notecards/envelopes. You can put any colour behind or you could stamp an image on the front in Versamark and use chalks to give it  different colours.
Happy stamping

Today's class

Today I did a class at the local Defence community centre. We decorated candles with stamps and each made a card, this is the card and candle I demonstrated, everyone did theres differently with a variety of stamp sets, majority did the card the same. We had a few new ladies and I am pleased to say they enjoyed it. Enjoy and have a great weekend.

Sorry its been a week between posts, what with working, running classes , running a household and a family, I have had little time to create just for myself. Anyway today's card is one I made quite awhile ago for  my mum to give to my niece who is turning 21 this year. She's already had her party so I am hoping Mum has given her the card already and not waiting until her birthday to send it, oh well, perhaps my niece won't visit my blog and it will be a surprise for her.. Lets hope..

I have been creating

While at Convention, I got some fabulous swaps that you saw, plus there were some great demonstrations on stage, well I have a list as long as my leg of all the ones I want to try... Here are some cards using these techniques, the pink at the back is bleaching technique, this was shown by Kirsty Brown, the one of the circles down the bottom is called inlaid embossing this was cased from a swap from Kim Gavarra, the ones of the birds I came up with myself they are also inlaid embossing, I have used these in a team swap that I am taking part in.
Have a great weekend, hope you too get some crafting done.

Each month a couple of demonstrators and myself get together to chat and create. When we got together in April, we had our children with us, some photo's were taken, and the challenge was "the next time we meet up we are to have a scrap page done of them", the other 2 ladies are scrapbookers and me well I am a beginner, however I took the challenge on board and with some help from a lovely customer/friend, Gail, I completed my page and I must say I am very happy with myself.
The photo below doesn't really do it justice, it looks heaps better in real life.
Have a great day.
