Snow time

Hi everyone, here's the last card of the three we made in card class using the Snow Much Fun stamp set. This time we used Wisteria Wonder for the base card which we embossed using the Polka Dot embossing folder:



The snow man was stamped on Whisper White and coloured and glittered, as before. This panel was layered onto Pink Pirouette card. The snowball was cut out and mounted on a 3D pad:



The snowflake was cut using the Snow Flurry die and the Big Shot (Autumn/Winter catalogue). I used some glitter paper I had anyway (none Stampin Up) and used the smaller 2 snowflakes. Here are some final close ups:
 

 

 

If you would like any of the products used, then please get in touch. In our next card class we will be decorating a 2013 diary. This would be an ideal Christmas gift, so why  not join us. Everything, including the diary will be included for only £12. The class will take place on Wednesday 31st October and there are only 2 places left, so contact me as soon as you can. I'll be back soon with a preview. x

Northern Snow Flurry

Good morning everyone. Here's another one of the cards we made in card class on Wednesday, using the Snow much Fun stamp set. The photo doesn't really do this card justice as it was so sparkly and glittery!




We used Bashful Blue for the base card and the new embossing folder Northern Flurry to emboss the Whisper White layer. This embossing folder is beautiful with snowflakes in the corner and room for a stamped image.

We used the Big Shot to cut the 'doily' circle using the Perfect Pennants die and stamped, coloured and glittered the image as described in Tuesday's post. If you would like to buy the Snow Much Fun stamp set, please get in touch. x

Stocking time

Morning everyone, here's the first card we made at card class last Wednesday. We used the Snow Much Fun stamp set and lots of glitter:




We used Baja Breeze for the base card and a piece of designer paper from the Snow Festival papers. The image was stamped with StazOn ink and coloured with markers. We then covered the image with Versamark,covered it with Heat 'n Stick, heated it with the heat  gun to melt the powder and then covered it with Dazzling Diamond glitter. We then heated it again which sets the glitter so it doesn't come off when you rub it. This photo gives you a better view:

 

Using Heat 'n Stick is a very effective way to apply glitter that doesn't come off and all the ladies love using this technique. Mind you, you should have seen my dining table and floor by the time they were finished....
I'll show you another card we made soon. x
