Embrace life & Baroque Motifs & Organic grace

I have been asked to do a card class with a mother's group of 20 what a challange lucky i have 2 lovely downlines Kelly and Tayna to help me out .
As you can probably tell i absolutely love this set this was money well worth spent on this set lol. I haven't used Rose red for quite some time so i thought why not use it with the matching 1"ribbon and Old olive is another favorite but haven't used it in a while tho and my Regal rose just sets it off nicely under the flower. The card on your right is actually Pretty in pink with matching taffeta ribbon and they are stamped in Chocolate chip oh and layered .

This set is another one i just love its nice to start using it . The card on your left i wanted to use pearls out of my pretties kit but i didn't have enough for 20people by the time i gave them 3 each i would of had to buy 3 boxes mmmm so i did used rhinestones from kaiser that i had here had heaps of packets of them but they do look very nice with the pale plum and certainly celery and the white taffeta ribbon to just set it off. the card on your right i just like very pretty in real life these are the new In-colours Kiwi kiss and Baja breeze .

Last one this is the organic grace hostess set you have probably seen the card on your right from my launch and i thought why not use it again got lots of comments from this card on the night . The card on your left is Almost amethyst with barley banana and pale plum again i have used the En francais background stamp

Another baby girl box

I was asked again to make another baby box from my cousin friend for her niece .
I have covered it with pretty in pink and very vanilla and wheeled scribble in chocolate chip ink and have used the taffeta pretty in pink ribbon and very vanilla ribbon on the side as the box was so big the 12x12 pretty in pink paper didn't fit .

I love this stamp set Buggies & Booties this set is actually my mums this was 1 of her very first stamp sets she ever brought and from Stampin' Up! and now shes hooked lol

Totally tools , Pocket silhouette , Organic grace cards made at my launch

This is the 1st card my guests made the totally tools with the new in-colour riding hood red and the metal parts i have used the going gray which is the lighter gray and basic gray which is the darker gray on the handles.

This is the second card Pacific point another new in-colour using the pocket silhouette and the new wide oval punch but i didn't use the stampin up brads as i don't have any and i forgot to order them i guess it doesn't help when i had someone call me while i was in the middle of ordering .

last lucky last this actually came out of the catalogue but they used different colours and i added piecing at top and bottom of the card as it looked a bit plan . I sure do love the Pink pirouette and Baja breeze with the very vanilla oh and Kiwi kiss more new in-colours i also used the word window punch with the short and sweet words .

Sweet Stems My launch invites

These are the invites i have made for my Launch tonight


I love the new Pink Pirouette but we don't have the markers in the New In-colours so i had to colour the flowers in pretty in pink looks similar with the certainly celery stems and the barely banana centre of the flower.


I have put the invite on the back of the card front this idea actually came from the catalogue on page 85 all i did was used the side of my scissors closed of course to give it a rough edge look and used a piecer to roll the edges in . Dosen't it look great don't you think.

Pocket Silhouettes book mark


This bookmark is actually in the catalogue on pages 70 and 71. I had some scrap card sitting there and i thought why not use it for this cute little book mark . This is one of the new sets pocket silhouettes that's out of the catalogue i had brought and i just love it and the baja brezze and kiwi kiss are just 2 of the new in-colours just goes well with the chocolate chip and very vanilla and the taffeta bashful blue ribbon don't you think .

Card Magazine Holder

What do you think about my card magazine holder i wanted to use up the last of the DSP that has retired . This is the front of the holder
This is one side of the holder i have put some card in there for you to see what it looks like .

This is the other side. I like the 5-petal flower punch and the centre one is boho blossoms punch after putting it all together i realised i have made the holder out of the whisper white but i have used very vanilla to punch the 5-petal flower at lease the close to cocoa was right lol.

2 , 4 , 6 , 8 box and mini bag


I seen the left hand box on SCS and i couldn't find the instructions so i thought why not use the 2,4,6,8 box looks almost similar to it and used my coluzzel to cut the oval window and used plastic to make the window and some Easter eggs to put in side .
The mini bag is instructions from Inking Idaho
you do have to pay for some of her tutorials this one is from the 12 days of Christmas just changed the paper i will be listing some more stuff i payed for and changed the paper over the next week or 2 .
