Tea Light Screens

I am so excited - can't believe that this time next week I will have spent the day exploring Brussels before heading to the convention centre to register for Stampin' Up! European Convention 2014.

Eeek! I can't contain myself and I have made 2 different swaps and a pillow gift for my roomie!

Today I wanted to share some screens I made for Electronic Tea Lights. NOT for use with naked flames... before someone sues me for burning their house down!

I used Vellum and the Lovely as a Tree and Holiday Home stamp sets.

I did get a little carried away!

Here's a little tutorial!

Here's some I did last year too!

Holiday Home Treat Boxes

I had such a busy weekend and I was hoping to chill out as hubby was away! No such luck. I don't think I sat down for five minutes.

I have had lots of requests for some more video tutorials so spent the whole of Sunday filming and editing! Literally from 7am until 11pm!

Here is something I thought was so cute - and I know you all love little treat boxes.

How neat are they? There are so many uses I can think of... advent gifts, home warming gifts, Xmas tree decorations. The list goes on!

I used the Holiday Home stamp set and corresponding Homemade Holiday framelits. The same ones we are using for our class tonight!

Here is the video tutorial.

Didn't make the cut...

Thought I would share these cards that didn't make the cut for Monday's class.

I'm not sure what it was about this one - can you think of any possible improvements? Was stamping the house on Cajun Craze the wrong thing to do? Just can't put my finger on it!

I did LOVE this bit though... and can you see the sparkle added by spraying with Vanilla Shimmer?

This one was lovely - but by the time I had settled on 3 of the cards for class I sort of had a colour scheme going on so this was discarded.

I'm a little gutted I went over the lines a bit on the roof with my Blendabilities. Sweet though isn't it?

Another class to go on Monday... I really should think about what to do for the next class! Mmmm, ideas on a postcard please!

Gift Tags

Whilst I was coming up with designs for my class I created these cuties!

Holiday Home stamp set, Dazzling Diamonds, 1/8" Silver Ribbon, Word Window, Angled Tag Topper and Confetti Stars punches.

It's supposed to be cooling down now... I really hate Winter! But it's like June outside, just a shame the days are so short now!!

September/October Classes

I have 2 class dates coming up, the 29th September and 6th October at 7 for 7:30pm in Princes Risborough.

I have a space on each one if you are interested! We would love to have you along - we are a small, intimate group and have a lovely evening together.

These are the cards we'll be making using the Holiday Home set of stamps and matching framelits.

The first is actually the last one I decided upon and is CASE'd from the catalogue - the Stampin' Up! catalogues are such a fabulous source of inspiration!

I made a few tweaks - but I think it's gorgeous!

The next also uses the Northern Flurry embossing folder. It's hard to see the Dazzling Diamonds here - maybe the next image will help!

There we are - a little sparkle!

The next card also uses the Northern Flurry folder. (And more Dazzling Diamonds!)

I had fun with the house stamping on different coloured card stocks, cutting and layering them for a 3D effect.

Lastly I seem to be getting a 'new wind' using the Flip Card - Circle Card Thinlit - I thought this was so cute!

I used a clever technique to get the glitter on the gold lights - I'll be making a video and posting it soon! Do you like the little shower of stars? They are thanks to the Confetti Stars Punch.

That's it from me for today... check out the supplies list below!

Hope to see you in class! xxx
