Catch a Snowflake - November 2018

So, I have had a chance this weekend to hide in my Craft room (aka the spare bedroom) and get a load of crafting done.  I love having the chance to craft uninterrupted for a few hours, it doesn't happen that often, but getting that time means and I can really get my craft on!

I was at team training on Friday, hosted by the fabulous Fiona Whitten, where I got my free stamp set due to my monthly sales, this month it was the Snow is Glistening stamp set which is part of the November's exclusive suite - Catch a Snowflake.

I just focused on the Christmas tree image and heat embossed it in all the embossing powders I had, including the 2018-20 in-colour embossing powders. I haven't used these powders much yet, but they worked really well with this stamp.

With the first one I embossed with Blueberry Bushel and created the background by mixing Blueberry Bushel refill with Frosted White shimmer paint.  Such a simple card to make, but so effective.


This is Call me Clover all over, I tend to work in monochromatic schemes as I find it much easier than trying to match colours.  Although if you are ever stuck for using multi-colour projects, just pick the colours from your favourite Design Series Paper - Stampin' Up have done the hard work for you!


As you can tell from both images that I also love the 'Joy'  sentiment from the set as well.  I also have the velvet sheets and trinkets, so look out for further projects during November with these products.  Have a look below at everything that will be available during November only.

September's Simply Fun Class

The class on Friday went really well and everyone loved the projects we made.  We used the Beautiful Baubles set and lots of heat embossing!

I think this set has lots of potential for a variety of different of styles of cards.  For the first card I paired it with the Dashing Along Hostess DSP.  I normally avoid too many patterns, however its Christmas so all rules go out the window!


I love using the Wood Textures DSP, it is a great all round design and perfect for mens cards.  We used heat embossing on this card and the new Shimmer Paints (Champagne) to add some gorgeous shimmery highlights.


The last card was all out bling, black and gold is a classy combination that is perfect for Christmas.  The important part is to use your embossing buddy to make sure you have the minimum amount of loose powder on your card and get a clean embossed image.
