A Rainbow of Cards
I finally remembered to get my camera out at one of my classes! These lovely ladies did such a fantastic job I just had to take a photo or two.
This was one of the classes I did using the retiring stamps and colours. It was a free-form class and everyone was able to create as many cards as they wanted using the sponged rainbow technique and their choice of colours and stamps from the retiring lists. And boy did these ladies get crafting. It was wonderful to see the results of their hard work….
Kamani & Veronica with their creations!
Here’s a better look at Kamani’s cards
…and Veronica’s!
You can see my sample cards in this post here.
Sorry to the other ladies who came to one of these classes, you did amazing work too, I just wasn’t organised enough to photograph it!
If you’d like to come along to one of my classes in Narre Warren, VIC keep an eye on the Monthly Classes page or Subscribe to my newsletter so you can keep up to date with what’s coming up.

Farewell French Foliage!
One of my absolute all time favourite stamp sets is retiring. And I’m not happy about it! The good news is that it’s on special!
Wood (123557) $34.95
Clear (121166) WAS $27.95 NOW $20.96
When I first saw this set in the catalogue I really didn’t think much of it. It’s one of those sets that you need to see in use before you can see its potential. And wow what potential it had. Even when I wasn’t using it for the leaves, the splats and the words made fantastic backgrounds and fill-in features. It’s been one of my go to sets for a couple of years now. In fact I had to start making myself not use it just so I got some variety in my creations and my other stamps got a look in. But now it’s time for it to go. I know I’ll still be using it for my own purposes but I’ll be sad that it won’t get to come on outings to workshops and classes with me.
Here’s a look back at some of the fun we had…
Teamed with the Mixed Bunch flowers
Teamed with butterflies
Just one leaf and one colour stamped off for variation
Masked ‘especially for you’
A collage on faux silk
Splats on book covers
In greens
And purples
On a special card
And as a thank you
And this one I didn’t even make
– it was wonder hubby’s first attempt at card-making!
So I know I’m not the only one drawn to this set.
And the kids got in on the act too…this one is Devon’s.
Oh, I love these drips/splats/whatever you want to call them!
Just the words this time, but don’t they make a fantastic background!
Minecraft Birthday Party
For Zane’s recent 10th Birthday he was determined to have a Minecraft-themed party. This scared me at first because apart from knowing it was his obsession I really didn’t know that much about it. It was a great relief to quickly realise that it’s all about building with blocks – yes, I know there’s much more to it than that but for decoration purposes that’s all I needed to know! Once I had my head around it the ideas quickly flowed – and I realised that the Fancy Favour Box Big Shot die would make the perfect themed gift boxes.
THE PRINTABLE PHOTO RECIPE CARD IS AVAILABLE TO MY NEWSLETTER SUBSCRIBERS. Subscribe for free today and let me know you’d like this one.
Zane wanted to be involved so we made his ‘Creeper’ boxes together. We cut off the fancy trim – beautiful though it is it just didn’t cut it for a 10-year-old boy! And we set to using the Big Shot to mass produce some boxes. I think he was a bit surprised that Stampin’ Up! could be so helpful with his Minecraft theme! Between us were were done in a few minutes and all we had to do was cut some Basic Black cardstock to stick on as faces. Oh, and fill them with loads of sugar!
It’s such a shame this die has made it onto the retired list – it’s really incredibly versatile. But the good news is it’s discounted by 25% so get in quick to get yours at a bargain price!
Fancy Favour Bigz XL Die – RETIRING SOON
NOW 25% OFF
(115965) WAS $69.95 NOW $52.46
Keeping the theme going, I also made a ‘Creeper’ cake. This one I did by myself and it was a surprise for Zane on the actual day!
I think he liked it. Here’s a closer look…
I did have grand plans for all sorts of other decorations such as creeper balloons and cups but as usual time got away from me and we settled for printing out some decorations for the walls and going with various shades of green for everything else.
So, if there’s anyone out there who is either a Minecraft addict like my son, or has kids who are, I’d love to hear what you think.
