Window Dressing Slider Card

Window Dressing Slider Card

Today’s card share was created by one of the talented demonstrators in my team – Keryn Moon, Stampin’ Up! demonstrator from Lilydale.

Keryn gave me this adorable slider card at our team day last month, and I really enjoyed CASEing it. It features the Level 3 hostess set, Window Dressing. As you pull the insert, the images move to the window above before the final message is revealed.

You can write your message on the back of the insert. To cut out an opening for the windows I used a hobby knife and it was surprisingly easy. I usually only use scissors for detailed cutting but I might have to pull out the hobby blade a bit more often.

If you are near Lilydale or in the Yarra Valley area, and you are looking for a local demonstrator, then contact Keryn. No doubt she’ll be able to show you more gorgeous projects just like this one. 

Today my two older kids (DS9 and DD6) went back to school after the long summer holidays . I’ve been hanging out for school to start – just like they have! – but now that they’re gone it’s soooo quiet in the house and I’m missing them! Lovely to spend one-on-one time with Little Miss 3 though!

My next post will have a tutorial on creating bling so check back soon.

Happy stamping,

Organic Grace

Organic Grace 'Get Well' card

Organic Grace is a beautiful set that is available exclusively to hostesses (it’s a Level 1 hostess set). It’s been really popular too! This week I had a play with it, and discovered that you can make a great variety of cards.

The Get Well card has been created in natural colours from the Earth Elements family: Old Olive, More Mustard and Ruby Red. The sentiment is from Thoughts & Prayers stamp set, which was sponged around the edge then punched out with the new wide oval punch.

Two scallop circles punched from Ruby Red cardstock were joined to create a mat for the Get Well Soon sentiment.

 Hello card

Little Miss 5yo picked the colours for this Hello card – doesn’t it change the whole look of the card! I love this combo of Tempting Turquoise (which I admit I very rarely use!), Rose Red and So Saffron. The scraps were put to use to create these 3×3 inch gift cards below.
