Petal Pizzaz Demo Cards

Hi eevryone.

I hope you all had a great weekend & are geared up for the week ahead. The weather sure is getter better, isn't it?

Well, here are the two cards that I demonstrated on the weekend...

The cards were created using the gorgeous Petal Pizzaz and Short & Sweet stamp sets, So Swirly jumbo wheel, the Tearing Edge, Whisper White, Pumpkin Pie, Old Olive & Not Quite Navy cardstock, Pumpkin Pie, Old Olive & Not Quite Navy ink pads, the Scallop Circle Punch, Large and small oval punches & gold brads.

Stay tuned for my hostess gift!

Hostess Gift Bag

This is the cute little gift bag I made for the hostess of my first demo:

The idea was inspired by this little bag by Kirsty.

The Brocade Blue cardstock was rolled over with the So Swirly wheel in Brocade Blue ink. The flowers and sentiment are from the One of a Kind stamp set. The smaller flowers were punched out with the matching Boho Blossoms punch and the sentiment was punched out with the large oval punch, and attached with a little silver chain from my stash. I also used silver brads through the centres of the flowers.

And what was inside? Some Lindt chocolate balls!

I like this little bag so much that I also made one for my Enjo lady for whom I recently hosted a demo, and for my girls.

Happy stamping!

So Swirly, So Versatile.

I just love my So Swirly jumbo wheel, simply because it is just so versatile. You really don't need much else when you use it and you can create so many different moods just by changing colours. Take a look...

Firstly, is a birthday card made using the wheel with Whisper White, Elegant Eggplant, Sahara Sand, Elegant Eggplant grosgrain ribbbon, the butterfly from the new Live Your Dream stamp set and three little half pearls on the butterfly. The sentiment is from the So Many Sayings hostess set, punched out with the window punch. I also used the piercing tool.

Next is a Christmas card made using Whisper White, Ruby Red, the flower from the In the Spotlight hostess set. Again, the sentiment is from the So Many Sayings hostess set and has been punched out with the window punch. The piercing tool was usedin the bottom right-hand corner.

By the way, if you love any of the hostess sets, ask me how you can earn them.

World Card Making Day Workshop

These are the three items we'll be making during this Sunday's workshop to mark World Card Making Day.
