Hello everyone and Happy Father's Day to all the Dad's! Welcome to the ESAD 2017 Holiday Catalogue Blog Hop, you have either started with me or already started hopping and just come on over from my gorgeous friend Lou's blog. That's right, you heard correctly, we have just had our Holiday Catalogue become available to customers as of the 1st of September. It is jam packed full of new goodies, not only Christmas sets but also everyday items. If you would like a hard copy (you can view it online here) please contact me and I'll get one out to you! What is ESAD you say? Now at this point I would suggest you go get a nice beverage of your choosing and sit back and hop from one demonstrators blog to another, there is going to be some fantastic inspiration for you and all of it from the new catalogue! P.S Our big annual catalogue is still running, this is a supplemental one, because you always NEED new things *wink, wink*. My card uses the gorgeous sentiment stamp and matching card front builder thinlit from the Carols of Christmas bundle. The snowflakes are from the very versatile Colourful Seasons bundle (in the annual catalogue). The background piece is a really fun technique called Waxed Resist Embossing, we made this card in our card class last month and everyone had a lot of fun making it. I think they were probably a bit baffled at first as to why I had the iron and ironing board out in the class space (probably just thought I couldn't be bothered to clean up before they came!). It uses the new glossy paper and regular waxed paper from the grocery store. You emboss a piece of waxed paper in an embossing folder, here we used the Sparkle embossing folder. You then, between two pieces of copy paper (this is just to protect your iron & ironing board) place the wax paper face down onto the front of your glossy paper, then with your iron set to cotton and no steam, iron over it for about 30 seconds. Once you've done this you then use your daubers and inks of your choosing, for this card I used Pacific Point and Bermuda Bay and you ink up your glossy card stock to reveal the wax resist. I really love the effect. For a list of supplies I used refer to the list at the very bottom of this post. Note - the large snowflake was die cut from the main panel where the sentiment panel lies, waste not, want not I say! Seeing as it is Father's Day here in Australia, I just wanted to show you what my creative girl made for hubby yesterday. It's not Holiday Catalogue related but is in the Annual Catalogue and I can't help being a proud Mum, so please humour me! The stamp set is called Watts of Occasions. Pretty cute, right? What was even cuter was hubby thought she had made the sentiment up herself, no hun, Stampin' Up! helps us with that! I love that she knows her way around my craft room (even when it is relocated to the garage at the moment after The Flood!). Now it is time for you to hop on over to Amity's blog and see what she's got in store for you!

Hello! Happy Sunday! The Crafty Collaborations team is comprised of Stampin’ Up! demonstrators from around the world. Each month, we participate in several collaborative projects including blog hops, like this […]
Hello and welcome, It is week 11 with the Heart of Christmas blog hop with the ladies from Art with Heart Team and we are showcasing Stampin’ Up! Products from the 2019 Holiday Catalogue. This week’s card I’ve created using the Peaceful Boughs Bundle which includes the Peaceful Boughs Stamp Set and Beautiful Boughs Dies. Purchasing the two items together as a bundle is a great saving as you can save 10% when you purchase the two products. The colours I’ve used for the card are Garden Green, Cherry Cobbler, Early Espresso, Soft Suede and Whisper White. I wanted to keep the card clean and simple. I stamped the second largest branch three times in Garden Green Ink on the Whisper White Cardstock. I’ve used a piece of Garden Green Cardstock and die cut out a branch using the second largest branch die. The pinecones are in Early Espresso and I’ve used the two smaller Pinecone dies. Then I lightly covered them in Snowfall Accents Puff Paint and heat set with the Heat Tool. For the bow I’ve used the Linen Thread and coloured it in with the Dark Suede Stampin’ Blend giving the bow a darker look. I’ve also coloured in the Silver Metallic Pearls with the Dark Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Marker. The greeting is stamped directly onto the Whisper White Cardstock using Cherry Cobbler Ink and the card base is in Garden Green. Thank you for visiting my blog today and to view everyone from the Art with Heart Team blogs please click here as Tina Gillespie is hosting week 11. Happy Crafting Vicki Boucher To purchase any of these products I’ve used today you can click on my direct links above or visit my Online Store here.

All Bundled Up Christmas Cards for this month's Cards with Angie Class! Hello friends! I hope you are enjoying this last Sunday of November after an amazing celebration of Thanksgiving here in the States. Today I am hopping with some Crafty Collaborators along the Share It Sunday Blog Hop as we share projects on our craft desks. There are several of us hopping today - you will find the list to follow along towards the bottom of my blog post - so sit back and enjoy your favorite coffee, tea, water or smoothie as we share some handmade projects with you! Today's Project Last Monday I had the privilege of stamping with some local seniors. This is always such a special time for me each month as these "young at heart" amaze me with what they create using my cards as samples. Needless to say, with it being Thanksgiving week, the class materials are still waiting to be put away so I just had to share this amazing day with you! Project Details The class was ran like a card buffet where enough materials were available for the participants to create all the cards. As I have quickly learned, these amazing "Young at Heart Stampers" usually make two cards each if time allows them before they exhaust themselves from their enthusiasm. The All Bundled Up cards were the same design created in portrait and landscape. The differences being the Merriest Moments sentiments, the critters and the Wintry embossed backgrounds. The third card was created in two different color palettes so they could choose which color they preferred - Real Red and Garden Green or Night of Navy and Shaded Spruce! The fun part with this one was seeing their faces when I told them they had to sing along with the card! My favorite part of the class is seeing how they decide to create their cards! It is also such a pleasure to get to know the class participants as there is always something new to learned each month! We had a power outage during the latter part of the class so pictures in the Art Room were not taken. Thankfully, my mom went around and got some amazing pictures for me! My #1 promoter of my card classes! New to my classes this year and enjoying every minute! My #1 fan, cheerleader and marketer for my card classes - my mom! Her first stamping class at the ripe young age of 101!!! More Inspiration I hope you have been inspired to create some Christmas cards with your own twist to share with someone to make them smile.

I know, I know it’s summer but today doesn’t feel like summer at all so here’s a card with a decidedly autumnal feel.In the new July - December catalogue there is a bundle called Ringed with Nature, I wasn‘t so keen on the stamps but love the hybrid die and embossing folder set. Seriously clever stuff, you can die cut and emboss at the same time.I used just the embossing folder on my Very Vanilla layer and then the embossing folder and large die to create the Crumb Cake tree ring. Finally I cut

Anyone living in the country has come across an old, red barn just like the one in the Christmas Barn Bundle. Add a wreath and some snow and you have a beautiful Christmas Card. I wanted a woodsy background for this card without stamping a lot of trees, so when I discovered this print from the Boughs of Holly DSP that goes perfectly on the Mossy Meadow cardbase I knew it was meant to be! The DSP is adhered above a layer of Basic White that was run through the Stripes 3D embossing folder. Barn Dies are used to cut out the barn, the wreath and the verse. Pretty simple. Pretty nice.
