Curly Christmas Wreath Class

Hello everyone, as promised I'm back with one of the first projects I am offering. The way these classes are going to run is that there are a number of days in November where you can book yourself a project or two or more if you like (they are gorgeous!) and just pop along on any of the dates to join us in making them.

The first project I'm sharing with you is this wonderful Curly Christmas Wreath, isn't it stunning!

This is a close to show you that is made from the beautiful Designer Series Paper. The cost for this class is just £12. That includes all the products you need in making this stunner. If you would like to join us, email me to book your place. You can join us on any of these dates:

Date:  8th or 15th or 22nd or 29th of November 2011

Time:  6.30-9.30pm

Venue: My house (address on booking)

Watch out for the next project...

Hope to see you, D x

Vintage Vogue with Rich Razzleberry & Old Olive

Hi all,
This is a match made in heaven - these 2 colours just go so well together, no matter what you do! Here I have used the lovely Vintage Vogue to make a beautiful card and broach for my wonderful friend Sacha!

Here is a picture of what was inside the box.

And here is a close up, the broach is using the Vintage Vogue flower, a lovely lady Marlene O'Connor, put a little tutorial on a website to show how to do these, so either go to her blog or email me if you would like to have a go. I used Crystal Effects (from Stampin' Up!) to make it glossy and therefore it is water resistant.

Ingredients were, for the card:

Stamp Set: Vintage Vogue

Cardstock - Whisper White, Rich razzleberry & Old Olive

Ink - Rich Razzleberry and Old Olive

Accessories - Diamontes

and for the broach and box:

Stamp Set: Vintage Vogue, Build a Blossom, Tiny Tags

Cardstock - Rich razzleberry & Old Olive

Ink - Rich Razzleberry and Old Olive

Accessories - Crystal Effects, Build a Blossom Punch, Broach pin, Tag punch, Rich Razzleberry Ribbon 

Would love to heard your thoughts on this so please leave a comment, 

Will be uploading some more cards in the next few days! Am on half term now, so it's crafting time!

Until next time,
