Stampin Up Hey chick

Saleabration has started with the launch of the new Spring/Summer Catalogue on January 4th.
For every £45 that you spend on product you can choose one item from the Saleabration Brochure for free.
The first Stamp Set that I picked from the new Saleabration Brochure was Hey Chick.
It is my idea of a fun stamp set for all sorts of occasions.
The first card was one which I made for a friend's birthday.
I used the Brick Wall Embossing Folder on the base card and I cut out a circle with the Stitched Shape Dies to mount the stamped image.

The next card was cased from one on pinterest Here.
I used Watermelon Wonder instead of Peekaboo Peach for the background to the stamped image.
The Banner was cut from some of the free Saleabration Designer Series Paper called Carried Away.

The next card was cased from the Saleabration Brochure.
The thanks sentiment is from Suite Sayings.

I used a background stamp from the Butterfly Basics Stamp Set in the Annual Catalogue on Crumb Cake Card Stock. The sentiment is from the Suite Sayings Stamp Set.
I covered the Chocolate Chip Banner with some Fabuous Foil Designer Acetate.

Last Class before Christmas

Here is the table set out ready for my last class of 2016. This was a Gift Packaging Class.
Candles and Christmas Chocolate Treats added to the atmosphere.

The Class included little Stockings that took two Celebrations, Roses or Heroes Chocolates.

We used the Gift Bag Punch Board to make a small Gift Bag that would take a Candle.

We used the Gift Box Punch Board to make a 4 x 4 inch box - the largest that you can make with this Board.

For the last box we used a Bundle from the new Spring/Summer Catalogue which is going to be released on January 4th. As a Demonstrator I could take part in the pre order and this item was first on my list! I absolutely love it. There are several variations of the box and the Stamp Set that goes with it is very versatile too.

Joyful Nativity

Here is a selection of the cards which I sent to friends and relatives for Christmas this year.
I love the Joyful Nativity set, especially stamped in Night of Navy on Whisper White with a hint of Silver Metallic Thread behind the angel.

I did a Baby Wipe Watercolour Wash as the background for the second card.
The star was embossed with silver embossing powder.

Most of my cards looked like this one.
I hope that everyone had a blessed Christmas.

Shaker Cards

Last week I had a Shaker Card Class at my house.
The first card was cased from the Stitched Shape Samples that Stampin Up gave us.
I love Whisper White and Pool Party on Christmas Cards.
The Joy to the World sentiment is from the Tin of Tags Stamp Set.

The next card uses the Candy Cane Designer Series Paper and a sentiment from the Stamp Set.
Thank you Tracey Allen for your inspiration for this card.

We made two birthday cards. The main colour in this one is Sweet Sugarplum. The sentiment is from the Designer Tin of Cards Stamp Set.
I have also used the Balloon Bouquet Punch and the Balloon Celebration Stamp Set.

The last card uses the Pop of Pink Speciality Designer Series Paand the Layering Love Stamp Set for the sentiment.
