Day 5 SU Large Paper Doily

The last card I made using Stampin Up's

Large Paper Doily has a Christmas theme.

This card came together quickly with the help

of Stampin Up's Snow Festival Designer Series Paper.

Day 4 SU Large Paper Doily

This card has a bright, spring feel to it.

I cannot get enough of the Stampin Up Polka Dot DSP.

It's so versatile for any card.

This card has a simple, delicate feel about it.

Day 3 Su Large Paper Doily

I have followed the same design, makes creating a bunch of cards

so much quicker. I have just changed the papers, colours,

embossing folders etc. For this card i cut the center

flower out of the paper doily and used this as an accent.

Day 2 Stampin Up Large Paper Doily

Here is the next card I made using

Stampin Up's Sizzlits Large Paper Doily.

I have again used Comfort Cafe DSP and have cut the

doily out of Cherry Cobbler cardstock.

The beautiful sentiment is from the

adorable stamp set, Stampin Up From The Heart.

I have punched out the middle of the sentiment

and raised it with dimensionals.

Day 1 Stampin Up Large Paper Doily

School holidays, Spring and beautiful weather.

I love school holidays and I am really looking forward to the next few weeks.

I have been making a few cards using Stampin Up's

new Sizzlits Large Paper Doily.

Once you spend a few minutes popping all the bits of paper out

you are left with a beautiful, delicate paper doily.

So many possibilities.

Over the next few days i will share with you the cards I have

been making. The first card I have used Newsprint DSP

to cut out the doily, Comfort Cafe DSP, Crumb Cake,

Cherry Cobbler cardstock, pearls and a clear button.

Also the stunning new Stampin Up Beautiful Birthday stamp.

Moving Forward Stampin Up

Recently i was asked to come up with some

Birthday cards for young children.

I don't have any children related stamps in my stash.

So I had a look through the Stampin Up 2012-2013 Catalogue

and decided on the Moving Forward Stampin Up stamp set.

It is one of those sets that can be used for various card ideas.

Here is my first card using the set. I made this card for

my nephews 8th Birthday.

SU Midnight Muse

I am growing attached to the new Stampin Up

2012-2013 In-Colours. I have used Midnight Muse

for this card. I don't normally use alot of blues

but I am finding this shade is easy to work with.

September Stamp A Stack

Here are the cards for September.

This month we had a Christmas SAS.

Four designs and we made two of each so we have

a good head start on Christmas cards.

I enjoyed coming up with the designs using new products.

I had help from the Stampin Up catalogues with my designs.

All products are Stampin Up.

Stampin Up Team Challenge

This month's Team Challenge is to create a card

using colours and stamps that are not usually

used for Christmas cards.

I have used Early Espresso, Raspberry Ripple and Midnight Muse colours.

Stampin Up Christmas Decorations

I have been experimenting with some new products

out of the Stampin Up Holiday catalogue.

I have made a few decorations and the last decoration

on this post I think I will keep to use instead of

a bow on a Christmas present this year.

Origami Star Decorations

I am trying to get a head start on making decorations

for the holiday season. There are so many

wonderful new products in the Stampin Up Holiday

catalogue that I want to utilise and have on hand

for gifts and decorating my home.

I have recently learnt how to make these Origami star

ornaments and have become totally addicted.

They look wonderful when completed and will last

many holiday seasons as once they are put together

they become quite sturdy.

I made this Origami star decoration out of retired

Stampin Up DSP.

I made this Origami Star Decoration out of an old book.

Birthday Wishes

I love the elegance of this card.

The embossing, paper piercing and layering.

I made this card for one of my lovely Stamp Club ladies.

CS&P Card

In this month's Cardmaking Stamping & Papercraft magazine

I have had the card below published in the Reader's Gallery.

There's lots of great ideas in this month's magazine.

It's a great go to when the mojo has disappeared.

Wedding Anniversary Card

I am happy with the look I achieved with this card.

I wanted elegant but not too over the top.

I have used Crumb Cake, Very Vanilla and Raspberry Ripple

cardstock and all supplies on this card are from Stampin Up.

Launch Lucky Door Gifts

I put these gifts together for my Stampin Up Catalogue Launch.

I had three gifts and pulled the lucky ladies names out of

a decorated tin.

I decorated a clipboard and added a few handmade

cards in the pocket.

Jars are so in now in the decorating world.

I decorated a small & large jar.

Inside each jar i places Dazzling Details, Cherry Cobbler Tulle

and some new ribbon. In the larger jar I also made 3 rosettes and added

them to the jar so the recipient could use them for projects.

Gift Bag Gifts

I put together gift bags for the Ladies that attended

my Stampin Up Catalogue Launch.

Inside each bag i placed the two new Stampin Up catalogues

and some gifts to thank the ladies for coming.

A diary & address book, a coffee bag and chocolates.

I bought 2013 Calenders & Address books.

I pulled them apart out of their original packaging

and made a cover for them out of the

Comfort Cafe DSP.

They are alot wider than this photo depicts.

I made these little gift pockets out of Stampin Up's Two Tag Die.

Inside each pocket I added a coffee bag.

Stampin Up Launch Christmas Projects

I made the following Christmas cards and Christmas

decorations for my Stampin Up new Catalogue Launch.

There's a mixture of new and old products.

I have really enjoyed using the Stampin Up

Snowflake bigshot die.

Spring Is Here

It really feels like Spring is here today.

I picked these beautiful flowers out of my

garden this morning. The flowers have brightened

my day and also filled our home with an amazing fragrance.
