Motorbike No2

Morning Peeps...
For some very weird reason Im up and at em this morning.  The above card is what I have just finished teaching to my class's in Pirongia.  The Ladies ust loved it, the colours are bright and I was able to teach a new technique/idea.  At our local Regional Training in Hamilton the Lovely Emma showed us how to recycle an aluminium can.  Once the can is open we were shown how the BigShot can cut and Emboss the tin.

This photo shows you a close up of the tin embossed and put behind the motobike image.  I used the Lattice Embossing Folder to create the pattern on the tin and then i cut the tin to the size that I required.  Isn't this just a neat effect.  I am 100% sure that I will be using products such as tin on many more of my fantastic creations.

See you soon

Its Motorbike Time

This Stamp was an absolute must for me when I saw it in our New Autumn/Winter Mini Catalogue.  So far I have created 4 different cards using the Motobike as my main focus.  In this card I have embossed the Motobike twice and then cut the cardstock in half then I have matched the two pieces up together like a jigsaw to get the above effect. I have also cut out one black and one white topnote from the bigshot and cut them in half and embossed using the lattice embossing folder on one half of each colour.  The Jumbo Eyelets and the Striped Grossgrain Ribbon have just tied the whole card together nicely don't you think???
Stay tuned to see some more of my Masculine Motorbike Cards
Catch you later

NB:  The Lattice Embossing Folder has been carried over from the Summer Mini and will continue to be avaliable to purchase.

Tri-Fold Card

Isn't she just beautiful!!!!!
I designed up this Tri Fold Card for a group of Local Ladies that I spoke to in late March.  As I thought they just loved it.  Using Baga Breeze and Soft Suede Card stock along with Elegant Soiree DSP made such a soft but Elegant combination.  Of course I had to use one of my all time favourtie Stamp sets Vintage Vogue.

NEW Stamp Set - SEW SUITE

Sooo What do you think??
Its Launched today the New Autumn/Winter Mini send me a message if you havn't received one today.  My Ladies who are attending the Hamilton Extravaganza will receive your copy in the bag on your tables.

The Card above is using 3 of our new products:
- Sew Suite Stamp Set
- Sweet Stitches Designer Series Paper
- Decorative Label Punch (My new favourtie Punch)

On the card above you will see that I have stamped on fabric.  To do this I used the Stazon Black Ink on my stamp and then stamed directly onto the fabric.  Its quite nice to use other products on our cards occasionaly to see another dimension. (ie Fabric, tin, wood, metal etc)

Hope you like it...
