For you lovers of punches, Stampin' Up!® is bringing in some beautiful new punches. Punches are great - they are easy to use and are quick for adding another dimension to your cards.
I saw a version of this card online, made by Tandra Boyer, and had to CASE. I can only take credit for the colour choice!!
This card combines the Beautiful You stamp set with a punch called Daisy (and yes, there is a stamp set to match!)
I fell in love with the petal skirt and its layers. So clever. And the Rhinestone waist! I covered the petals with Wink of Stella, which also helped to smoosh the ink around a bit. I have since seen another version with vellum petals as another layer!

My Beautiful You class was awhile back and I have just realised that I have not shown the cards in full. This stamp set is so popular and we have just been told that it will be carrying over into the new Annual Catalogue.
We made a total of five cards exploring different techniques.
First up, Paper Piecing, where the image is stamped on the white rectangle and also on some patterned DSP. The DSP dress and hat are cut out then stuck over the white dress. This is such an effective technique and so easy to do.
Our second card also explored paper piecing with one of the other images.
Card number three used our fabulous Watercolour Pencils and aqua painters. I am loving the Watercolour Pencils and this was such an easy card to make.
The technique is really well explained by Dena Rekow in this video.
We also did some masking to place the lady with the umbrella into the middle of a Mediterranean scene.
And lastly, some mirroring, a technique I have not tried before but we all loved it!
I was really pleased with the cards the ladies took home and the techniques we explored. If you would like to come along to my classes, I would love to have you. Email me at wheatonanna@hotmail.com or phone me on 55 765 469. I also have a classes button at the top of my blog.
Don't forget we are entering the final weeks of Sale-a-Bration. Free goodies with every $90 spend!
Just a quick post to gush about how handy a set of number dies is.
I made this card in record time for my son's friend. I didn't even stamp the numbers, I just headed straight for the Large Numbers Framelits to cut out the 15.
I added a Real Red layer under the Emerald Envy striped, just to give a touch of other colour and then picked it up further by adding Real Red Enamel Shapes. These shapes are a must have for adding that little extra something to a card.
Don't forget our next class - a technique class using the Beautiful You stamp set. We'll be exploring masking, paper piecing, watercolouring, the mirroring technique. You'll take home five individually crafted cards for $20. AND...you'll have a fun time.
Don't forget that for every $90 you order until the end of March, you can choose a Sale-a-Bration item for FREE. There are beautiful stamp sets, a fab card tin, ribbons, DSP. Here's a reminder of what's on offer! Plus THREE NEW items are coming February 21st!
