Sneak Peak:NEW Stampin’ Up! Occasions and Sale-A-Bration – Framed Butterflies …

I always try to make my Christmas {where possible}, and I made these gorgeous framed Butterflies for my Mom, Mom-In-Law and Sister-In-law for Christmas this year ... shhhhh don't tell them the surprise though!

This is my first project, featuring the NEW Stampin’ Up! stamp set "Butterfly Basics" with matching “Butterflies” Framelits …


I love the elegance of the Butterflies, and there are three Dies in the “Butterflies” Framelits pack, which are perfect for layering.
 

I also used the gorgeous Sale-A-Bration “Irresistibly Yours” Specialty Designer Series Paper, which can be sponged, Spritzed, or Brayered, to give a gorgeous emboss resist finish/technique, in this project I used my Brayer for the first time, along with Wisteria Wonder Ink Pad.

Create With Kathe for Thursday 11th December 2014



#CreateWithKathe #JorjaRoseFiles

This week we made 4 projects!!!
As it is almost Christmas, and many people now give gift vouchers/cards for Christmas, this week’s focus was on how to present gift cards …
 

Project 1 “Circle Card Thinlits” Gift Card Holder, case via Jacque Williams


Jacque taught this card at our recent Christmas Extravaganza, and I had to share this card with my ladies.
I changed it up a bit by adding in the “Work Of Art” stamp set.
Stamp sets featured in this card are “Festival Of Trees”, “Letterpress Winter” and “Work Of Art” .
This card could be suitable for any occasion, just by swapping the stamp sets.


Project 2 “Cottage Cutz Filigree Pocket” Gift Card Holder


Featuring my favourite die from Cottage Cutz, the ladies got to choose between a snowflake embellishment {from the “Snowflake Card Thinlits” Die} or a flower {from the “Flower Shop” stamp set and punched with the matching “Pansy” Punch}. Both are secured with a Candy Dot Brad Base and a Rhinestone Basic Jewel.
The leaves are punched using the “Bird Builder” Punch.
The embellishments for this pocket card holder can be changed to any colour, that way you can match the embellishment back with the colour of the gift card.

Project 3 “Envelope Gift Card Holder”


The base for the card holder is the envelope from the “Note Cards and Envelopes” #131527 $11.95 for 20
Folded in half and adhered to a piece of Pool Party cardstock, the front is decorated with the “Work Of Art” and “Festival Of Trees” stamps sets, + Rhinestone Basic Jewels.
For the inside, one flap of the envelope is cut off, and the other stuck down.
This is a quick and easy card to make and took less than 10 minutes from start to finish.


Project 4 “Top Note” Swing Gift Card Holder


Love love love the “Top Note” Die, which ahs been used to create this swing card. Accented with “Trim The Tree” Designer Series Paper Stack which peaks through the negative detail, created with the Star punch from the Itty Bitty Accents Punch Pack.
The stamp set featured is “Get Your Santa On” which has bee coloured with the Cherry Cobbler Blendabilities. Did you see the cute Pom Pom on the Santa’s Hat? That’s created with the Crop-A-Dile and Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper.
The Cherry Cobbler Ribbon and Antique Brad are the finishing touch.


Wah-lah … Gift Card Holders …done!
