Welcome to my blog. I am a very new Stamping’ Up! Demonstrator from Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. To find out more about me please follow the link to my About Me page. Hopefully you will enjoy your visit and be happy to return often. It is my intention to post at least twice a week but as yet I don’t have a set schedule. I am still very new at all of this and will find my feet in time.

So let’s get crafty……the Stamping’ Up! 2018 Holiday Catalogue launched on 5 September and it is full of beautiful stamps, papers and embellishments. There are matching framelits/thinlits and punches and several gorgeous embossing folders. In true Stamping’ Up! style everything coordinates beautifully. The pages of the catalogue are lined with images of creative cards and projects that are sure to spark your imagination. Of course there are always the favourite ones and I have a few – the Peaceful Noel stamp set, Festive Farmhouse designer series paper and braided linen thread. I used these combined with the Mistletoe Season stamp set and the designer series paper Under the Mistletoe to make this trio of cards. I love the rich traditional Christmas reds and greens with a touch of gold.

Here are some photos that show the cards in greater detail. I used my favourite tool the Stamparatus to stamp the wreath for each card. It really is an invaluable tool. I use it for all my stamping these days and am considering changing all my wood mount stamps over to clear mount so that I can use some of my older stamp sets in the Stamparatus. It makes perfect alignment so easy and no more hassle when trying to re-stamp a less than perfect image. I would highly recommend it to everyone. A link to the Stamparatus in my online store can be found in the detailed product list below.

If you would like to make these cards I would be only too happy to assist. Please feel free to contact me. All the products I used are listed below for your convenience. Clicking on the image will take you to my online store. Thanks for visiting and thanks for choosing to shop with me.
