Some more Workshop Samples

Here are two 7 X 7 scrapbook pages that I did last year using products from the Summer Mini Catalogue. Most of the things from this catalogue are due to retire at the end of March (somethings may make it into the new catalogue but we wont know what till it is released). So if there is something you like you need to order it this month or you may miss out.

Colours - Chocolate Chip, Whisper White, Groovy Guava (in colour) and Soft Sky (in colour).

Stamps - Time for you, Friendly Flowers, Live Your Dream.

Designer Paper - Afternoon Tea DSP

Accessories - Blender pen, Basic Brown ink pad, snail adhesive, chocolate chip marker (for journaling)

Punches - Scallop Circle, Oval, Photo Corners, Scallop Edge and 1 3/8 Circle punches.

You are still able to get the in colour ink pads (reduced to $7.46) and some of the card stock but they won't last long (river rock and soft sky A4 packs are now sold out).

Card Box Set

This is a gift I made for a friend of mine last year for her birthday. I made it in November but never put it up on my blog so I thought I would show you now. Better late than never! It uses a lot of items that are in the Summer Mini Catalogue as well as some of the In Colours that will be retiring soon. I have heard that 4 of the 6 In Colour Ink Refills are on back order so if you need In Colour items you would be better off ordering them before the end of February so they are not already sold out by the time the retire list comes out.The card box contains 4 cards with matching envelopes and 3 gift tags. The designer paper is Afternoon Tea DSP from the Summer mini. The stamps I have used to make this card box and cards are Live Your Dream, Friendly Flowers, Say it with Scallops, Occasional Greetings and Sincere Salutations. The punches are Scallop Edge, corner rounder, the two squares, large and small oval and small star Punches (I used the creative memories tag punch to make the gift tags). The colours I have used are Soft Sky, Groovy Guava, Wild Wasabi, Chocolate Chip and Whisper White.

If you are interested in making something similar to this and have a group of about 5-6 people why don't you contact me and book a class.

Something Old, Something New

Here is a card I made for one of my best friends for her birthday tomorrow. I really hope she likes it because I had so much fun making it. I have used the heart from the Always Stamp Set (It is retiring tomorrow from the Spring Mini) and stamped it with chocolate chip ink on soft sky textured cardstock. I then added some highlights and faux stitching with the white gel pen and went over some of the design with the fine tip end of my chocolate chip marker. The sentiment is actually one of the new rub ons from the summer mini catalogue and it comes in chocolate chip and white, how good is that! (they are normally black and white). The designer paper and chocolate chip ribbon is also new from the Summer Mini. I have embossed the butterfly from the Touch of Nature stamp set in white EP onto vellum cardstock and cut it out with my SU Paper Snips. It has been attached with a dimensional.
