“Create With Kathe” For Thursday 6th March 2014

Today was the first day back for my “Create With Kathe” craft classes.

We made three projects, a “3D Shoe”, made with the “Sweet Sorbet” DSP from the Sale-A-Bration promotion, a “Whittaker's Chocolate Holder”, made with the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch, and a gorgeous “Shabby Chic Hardwood” card, featuring the Circle Card Thinlits dies …

 

Project 1 "3D Shoe”

I had actually forgotten that I had made a whole collection of these darling little shoes about 4 years ago, and when I went to my {shoddy} file system, found I still had the pattern on file, and it was laminated too!

Made with the beautiful {and FREE with qualifying purchase}“Sweet Sorbet” DSP from the Sale-A-Bration promotion, the “Spiral Flower Originals” Die and Petite Petals Punch.

This project which was quick and easy, yet looks quite stunning!

Project 2 “Whittaker's Chocolate Holder” {case’d from Sally}

Sally gave these out at a recent class as a thank you, as she was moving out of town, and I just had to recreate it!

Made using my new Scalloped Tag Topper Punch and the “Petal Parade” and “You’re Lovely” SAB stamp sets.

Colours used are Coastal Cabana, Crisp Cantaloupe, Daffodil Delight, Pear Pizzazz, and my new favourite Sahara Sand.

Stamped on Naturals White, and finished with Pistachio Pudding Ruffle Stretch Trim and a sweet bow of Linen Thread.

 

Project 3 “Shabby Chic Hardwood Card” {case’d via Chantal De Kaste}

My new favourite stamp is the “Hardwood” stamp from the Seasonal catalogue, available through till 30 June 2014.

Stamps sets also used are “Petite Petals” {and matching Petite Petals Punch}, “Flower Shop” (and matching Pansy Punch}, “Mixed Bunch” {and matching Blossom Punch}, “That’s The Ticket” {and matching Ticket Duo Builder Punch}, and “You’re Lovely” from the Sale-A-Bration promo.

The fancy fold is made using the “Circle Card Thinlits” Dies, you get 10 different dies in this cute little pack!

The Bird Builder Punch is used for the leaves, and the veins are drawn on with the Old Olive Stampin’ Maker.

Classic Stampin’ Pads used are Blushing Bride, Old Olive, Strawberry Slushy, and Sahara Sand.

The stamp with the words “I think you're lovely” are coloured using the Melon Mambo, Old Olive, and Rich Razzleberry Stampin’ Markers.

Candy Dots in Blushing Bride and a scattering of Rhinestones complete this gorgeous card.

This card was originally case’d via Chantal, but I have changed up the colours and some of the stamp sets and punches used.
