Sneak Peak "Number of Years" and some new paper

Well you've gotta love a Saturday Postal Delivery!!! Some customer orders and some new toys for me arrived this morning. Thankyou to all the hard working postal staff at Australia Post. I'm sure this time of year is crazy for them.  I'm supposed to be finishing the Christmas cards but seem to have been sidetracked temporarily.....
One of the fabulous new sets in the coming Occasions Catalogue is called Number of Years and it has beautiful numbers, some flowers which are a lot like Painted Petals with their watercolour look, both birthday and anniversary (hooray) sentiments, and it even comes with matching framelits. Lots of fun.

The pile of new catalogues arrived in the order also along with the Sale-a-bration brochures. There are so many gorgeous new lovely stamps, ribbons, paper and goodies.  You are definitely going to want some of these. Don't forget I do GIFT VOUCHERS for any amount. If you would like one for 
Christmas please get your family to get in touch with me and I can arrange a beautiful gift card with the voucher enclosed.



I hope you can see that amazing shimmer -it's from a product new to Stampin Up! Called Wink of Stella. This is the clear pen and it adds a delicious sparkle to everything. It also comes in gold.

Of course I had to make an envelope to match 

Thanks for looking, 
Liz

Envelope Dies perfect for an Acetate Tent card and some new DSP

After creating yesterday's cards I was on a roll and created this one using the beautiful Gilded Autumn DSP and the Fancy Phrases stamp set.  I really love the sentiments in this set.  It is such a simple design and easy to create. You can find all the directions on yesterday's post for Just Add Ink (JAI#518)  I watercoloured the white leaf after I had adhered the gold veins just to soften it, and I added a strip of mint DSP to the front of one of the tent stands as the white was a bit stark. That's the cool thing about this design, you can change it up plenty of ways. I'm sure we can all send these type of cards at the moment. I hope you are safe and well, and staying connected, wherever you are. I hope you have a creative week and remember,  "don't just post online,  post something pretty!" cheers, Liz Product List Ornamental Envelopes Bundle [ 155168 ] $83.50 Envelopes  Dies [ 153531 ] $63.00 Shimmery White A4 Car...

Funky Folds Blog Hop= a Bay window card using Country Flowers

Well it's been a very long time since I participated in a blog hop - and it feels good to be participating in a FUNKY FOLDS hop. You may have come from Jan McQueen's creation, or you may be starting here. Be sure and hop all the way around. I do love Fancy Fold cards and of course with a new catalogue and new products it is fun to be creating again. I have a big weekend retreat coming up in a few weeks and we are using the Country Flowers Stamp set so I am creating a swag of samples. Since time is such a precious commodity for all of us I am using some old favourite folds with new products - a whole new lease on life. For this week's hop I am revisiting the Bay Window Card. The front tri-panel piece bends forward and tucks in behind the little anchor which is fixed to the inside. Your card will stand up unaided. This is it with the edge tucked under the anchor. You can find the measurements and instructions and several previous samples on these pages. Today's card featu...

500 challenges at CASEing the Catty ' - how fantastic to be involved

What an honour to be invited back to join with the Caseing the Catty team for their 500th challenge! Thankyou Bec for thinking of me. I started with the CTC crew way back at the beginning and I still go to the catalogue as a ready reference for creative ideas. The earliest post I can find is 2014 - CTC#3! 10 years of crafting along, that's pretty amazing. For this challenge it was completely open to choose any project to  CASE from either the annual or the Christmas mini catalogue. There are lots of projects in there that spark a creative journey for me and I did have a hard time choosing. In the end I opted for something simple since none of us have much free time at this hectic time of year. To make things a tad more difficult I have covid so feeling pretty low on energy. Lucky that crafting is a relaxing pastime and I can sit at my craft desk without be scolded too much by my loving DH that I need to be resting! For my projects I have created a Christmas Card and a matching Gift...
