Christmas Stars


Love these cute Christmas Stars …
Made from 5 sheets of 3”x3” “All Is Calm” Specialty Designer Series Paper, fancy folded {but you can substitute for any Designer Series Paper}.


I added the cute sentiment “For You” from the “Letterpress Winter” stamp set, which is stamped in Bermuda Bay on Pool Party cardstock.
The 1 ¾” Scallop Circle Punch is used, along with the 1” Circle Punch, which both match back perfectly with the “Letterpress Winter” stamps featured.


A silver bell and small pearl bead finish off the Christmas Star.
When closed the Christmas Star looks like a small book, when unfolded, it turns into a gorgeous Star that cleverly shows off the DSP from all angles.
Love it!

Create With Kathe for Thursday 20th November 2014




How to we top last week’s Class?!!!
This week we made a gift box with the new “Gift Box Punch Board”, and 4 mini 3 ½” x 3 ½” cards, featuring the “Get Your Santa On” stamp set, and alos a card in shades of Purple {Wisteria Wonder and Elegant Eggplant}, featuring the “Corner Garden” stamp set and ALL the Blendabilities …


Project 1 Gift Box With 4 Mini 3 ½” x 3 ½” Cards


We made the Gift Box using an 8”x8” piece of Early Espresso cardstock, and followed the instructions for making the 4” square box.
This was my first time demonstrating the new “Gift Box Punch Board” {available for only $38.95}, and the ladies mastered it beautifully.
Like last week, I was demonstrating how one stamp set can make so many cute and different cards, and this week we made 4 mini cards, and ALL with the same stamp set “Get Your Santa On” …






Wah-lah …  Gift Box With 4 Mini 3 ½” x 3 ½” Cards done!

Project 2 “Corner Garden” Stamp Set + Blendabilities


Very excited to re-hash this idea that I first visited, just after the Blendabilities came out.
This effect is created by first heat embossing in White, then colouring the heat embossed image with the Blendabilities pens.


Because you are colouring onto the Basic Black cardstock, you can not see when you go outside the edges … brilliant!

My upline demonstrated a similar card recently with the “Corner Garden” stamp set, at out recent Nelson Christmas Extravaganza, and I re-fell-in-love with this technique.


The ladies got to choose their own sentiment from the “Wetlands” stamp set, but as I had a wedding on this past weekend, I chose stamps that specifically went with a wedding theme.


I made a card for the Bride and Groom, and also one for my Auntie and Uncle, as a “Congratulations” as their son was getting married.

Wah-lah …  “Corner Garden” Stamp Set + Blendabilities done!



Ummm … and a final note on the "Blendabilities", my last two colours arrived today {Crumb Cake and Smokey Slate}, so I now have the whole set of …
Calypso Coral, Coastal Cabana, Cherry Cobbler, Crumb Cake, Daffodil Delight, Melon Mambo, Night Of Navy, Old Olive, Pumpkin Pie, Rich Razzleberry, Smokey Slate, Wisteria Wonder + Skin Tone … omg … that’s $350 + of Pens!!!
