Cheerful Dasies for Week 2 Sketch Layout

G’Day Friends,

Can you believe Week 1 is over with sharing our first Sketch Layout for September & we’re now beginning Week 2 with a new layout?

Be sure to check out Robbie’s card by clicking on the link.

Now, I will be honest & say that I found this sketch a challenge.  I had ideas for my Wow & Stepped Up versions but no idea of where to start for the Basic.  So, in this situation, I broke down the ideas in my head & this is the result.

I’m a real lover of Daisies & Sunflowers or even Gerberas.  They are all happy, fun & bright flowers.  Look at that lovely bright yellow?  That’s Daffodil Delight, Lemon Lolly & Pumpkin Pie.  The stem is Granny Appe Green.

By clicking on the link below, you are able to download a FREE PDF Tutorial.  It includes the Supply List to create the card along with Measurements – A4 Imperial & Metric PLUS Letter Size.

Stampin’ Up! Sending Smiles Fun Fold

G’Day Friends,

Thank you so much for stopping by today.

I’m sharing the easy Fun Fold card we created in our “Live” on Wednesday.  I’m not sure what it’s called but it’s loads of fun & can be pretty addictive, but then hey, aren’t they all?

The Stamp Set is one that I haven’t used in a little while but has been carrdied over – Sending Smiles Stamp Set along with the coordinating Sending Dies.  It’s always good to play with some of our older sets as we tend to forget about them while being busy playing with newer “stuff”.

Check out all the lovely bright colours on today’s card.  They’ve been toned down a little with touches of Night of Navy Ink along with the Grey Granite & Lemon Lolly Cardstock.

I’m really loving this colour combination.  It’s so pretty with pops of colour here & there.  I think this may be one of my new favourite colour combinations.  Do you have a favourite?

You are able to download a Tutorial by clicking on the link below.  It has the Supply List to create the card along with Measurements – A4 Imperial & Metric PLUS US Letter Size.

July Stamp n’ Hop Blog Hop

G’Day Friends,

Today I am hopping along with a lovely group of SU! Demonstrators from all over the world.  You are free to join us if you like, but we do ask that you be a current SU! Demo & that you use current SU! products.

It has been so long since I’ve hopped along with them so fingers crossed it will be continue.

Welcome to our July Hop.  This month we are showcasing our favourite Bundle!  You may have just arrived from Liz’s blog where she shared her lovely project with her favourite Bundle.  If you have started from my blog, all you have to do is click on the next arrow below to continue.

There are so many lovely Bundles in the Annual Catalogue that I had a hard time choosing my favourite.  So when in doubt, I closed my eyes & hoped for the best.  Just happens Flowers of Friendship Bundle IS one of my favourites!

I’ve kept the layout fairly simple as I wanted the Bundle to POP!

Along with the simple layout, I decided to go with a colour combination way out of my comfort zone of Melon Mambo, Granny Apple Green, Basic White & Night of Navy as the Base Card.  What do you think?  I am happy with the combination.

To download your free PDF Tutorial, all you have to do is click on the link.

963.  Little Card, Big Thanks – Flowers of Friendship Bundle

Chat & Create – Stamping for Ava

G’Day Friends,

Today I am sharing something a little different with you.

Last Friday, we had a very fun morning of chatting, drinking cups of tea & coffee, with lots of laughing, eating, singing, dancing & crafting!  All with little Ava & her family at the backs of our minds.  You can read all about Ava’s Journey here.

The event was sort of spur of the moment about 1 month before the day so we just went with the flow – if it can happen this way!  Happy to report it went off without a hitch & with a handful of volunteers to help us make the day so successful & fun.  Of course, you can’t forget all the many volunteers behind the scenes who never let us down with their yummy homemade sweets & entrees.  Thank you so much!

We had 9 tables which seated 6 to each table except for 2, which seated 8.  You can imagine the designing, cutting & prepping for each card.  I also had to bear in mind that 99% of the ladies had never stamped before the event!  Each table had 2 different designs.  That’s 18 designs!!!!!

Anyhow, we got there with each of them creating 2 cards each with lots doing 3, 4 & 5.  A lot of them shocked themselves with what they created.  I will say the imagination on some of the projects was fantastic.  No 2 were alike.  They loved walking around for show & tell, shocked to find that each table had completely different cards – lol!

We even had a little 4 year boy who was with his Nana & created 2 cards – 1 for mum & 1 for his Daycare Teacher!  He was so proud.  He then found me later on to have a little twist on the dancefloor with him.  He had dumped his Nana!!!!

Card #1 – Darling Donkeys
