Lesson 186

This will be the last lesson for 2018. We should all have enough Christmas cards by now but just in case you area bit short I have added a few extras.

I really wanted to work with my Blends so I chose Postcard Pals. It is a set a with 3 animal images (perfect for colouring) and 6 sentiments to match.



And who couldn't resist this Pizza Box and Cards.


The second set for this lesson is Half Full. Once again the images are great for colouring and the sentiments are a bit cheeky too!



This set is all about wine so I thought we'd finish off with some wine bottle covers and a chocolate or two!!!




Lesson dates: November 27, 28, December 4, 5, 11 and 12.

Lesson 185

I have used the Frosted Floral Suite in this lesson. It consists of the First Frost Stamp Set, Frosted Bouquet Framelit Dies and Frosted Floral Specialty DSP. This has been a very popular Suite. I have been inspired by many talented stampers to make these cards.






I have also snuck in a couple of tags from the Tags and Tidings Bundle onto these cute Christmas presents.

The  Illuminated Christmas Stamp Set gave me a chance to do some colouring with my favourite Blends.




I have used the Tags and Tidings Bundle to make this Box of Tags. The All is Bright DSP has many gorgeous designs but I was struggling with 2 of them so I made them into tags and now I really like them too.


And finally a request from Sue. I have tweaked the original design and made it even bigger.




Lesson dates: November 6, 7, 13, 14, 20 and 21.

Lesson 183

I was really excited to play with the Stamp Set: So Santa. I liked the clean lines and colouring with my Blends is always a bonus!!!





The Tropical Chic Bundle is a favourite too. I guess I have been waiting for warmer weather to play with this one.






The Timeless Tidings Project Kit is a great way to create elegant cards in minutes. The kit includes enough supplies for 20 cards, 5 each of 4 designs. It coordinates with the Timeless Tidings Stamp Set. The little bag was inspired by Carussell Crafts.


Lesson dates: September 18, 19, 25, 26, October 2 and 3.
