Petal Passion Suite

OK, so I think this might just be my favourite bundle in the new Occasions Catalogue - a stunning mix of black and white in watercolour wash look that is simply elegant on its own but is also a beautiful base to add colours to. Petal Passion Suite (pages 22-23)

Take this card for example. The designer series paper is black and white but by using the calypso oral ink to accent some of the flowers it totally changes the paper - cool huh?


I spy a new stamp set - Petal Palette which is a beautiful set of 15 stamps - flowers, birds and beautiful sentiments. Also a new whisper white ribbon, Petal Passion embellishments and the Petal Passion designer series paper (DSP). There is a coordinating thinlit die set too and a Memories and More card pack designed for scrapbooking but the pieces also make fantastic card bases.

Silver Mini Gable Boxes - more sneak peeks

Another quick share with you of new goodies available next week. With the kids being on school holidays I'm finding it hard to get time to blog!

At Onstage we were lucky enough to make one of these gable boxes. Can you spy all the new products? 

1. silver mini gable box (pack of 12 boxes come flat)
2. Sweet Soiree Speciality designer series paper - swoon....
3. Berry Burst Metallic edge ribbon - lush!
4. Silver Bakers Twine
5. Cake Soiree stamp set

These boxes are approx 10cm x 6 cm so  a great size for small gifts.

I made some of these boxes upp for Christmas gifts and managed to fit a minature bottle of alcohol in there too! On the sample I used a whole strip of dsp but on the Christmas ones I cut the pieces to fit and added a strip of washi tape. Add a simple tag and the job is done!





I have already ordered a bunch of these as they are going to be so useful as party favours and for small gifts.

Merry Christmas!

Hello everyone!

I wanted to share with you the Christmas cards I made this year. I was really drawn to the Merry Little Christmas Suite when I first saw the 2017 Holiday CAtalogue. I loved the simplicity of the old olive, basic black and whisper white colours and also the tags and co-ordinating punch. 

Whilst I was waiting for my order to arrive I saw a card made by Erica Cerwin and that got my creative juices flowing!! I mixed up the designer series paper strips and the sentiment. I just love those foil snowflakes too and being able to cut them in half made it more economical too when I needed to mass produce my cards! 


Merry Christmas everyone!

Christmas Tags

Prior to our last class the girls asked if we could make some Christmas tags and this is what I came up with. These are quite simple to make and easy to mass produce as you can mix and match the colours and the sentiments to suit. For the shape of the tags we used the Celebrations Framelits and die cut out two solid pieces and the diagonal piece and layered them together. 

I originally saw a version of these tags made by Mary Fish  and loved her use of the neutral colours. But for class I decided to go with the traditional colours of Real Red, Garden Green and Crumb Cake.







Having the two layers of cards means that the base card had enough space to write a little message and the recipient's name.  Now to wrap those gifts!
