Now until my new SaleABration sets arrive, I'll be showing you lots of things I've been making with Vintage Labels as this was the set I chose for the demonstrator preorder. I love this card.
Base card is Choc Chip, with a Pink Pirouette panel on top. Pierced holes down the side were done with my trusy Paper Piercing Template.
You get this in the Mat Pack (pg 155) and I have a paper piercer to poke the holes with. Put the setting mat (the hard plastic bit) down first on your work surface, then the soft pad down on top. Put your cardstock on top of the pad then your Piercing Template on top of the stack. Line up your holes using the template line and poke away.
OK back to our card.
I've used the Riding Hood Red, Chocolate Chip and Pink Pirouette Designer Series Prints papers (pg 135) and stamped onto some with the Vintage Label stamps, punched some with the Curly Label Punch and made some accents with the Heart To Heart Punch and Boho Blossoms Punch. And a brad to finish off.
Popped the 4 curly labels up with Stampin' Dimensionals of course. (I'm stocking up on these during SaleABration. They're handy if you need to add a little to your order to make up to the nearest $100 for another free SaleABration set.)
I punched a bunch of these pieces and had fun mixing and matching. Here's the same design with a slight tweak of the colours.
Marker Club News:
We filled those last 2 spots for Group 3, but had some more interest so I've started Group 4.
Check all the details here and let me know if you'd like to join in the fun of a Marker Club.
Parcels are posted and tutorials are emailed each month so it doesn't matter where you live.
$40 per month for 8 months and you'll build up a great collection of 52 markers, plus lots of other goodies along the way including one SaleABration set if you join the club soon.
February Classes Starting to Fill:
Are you in the mood for a stamping class? They're lots of fun. I hold mine at my place (Avondale Heights, in Melbourne's west.) We kick off again in February and there are 4 dates to choose from.
$20 for the class and in February we'll be doing some techniques using punches including the gorgeous Glitter Windows. We'll make a sample for our book, you'll get an instruction sheet to go with that and then you'll make 3 cards and matching envelopes working at your own pace.
Suitable for beginners and more experienced stampers. A nice relaxing time out from day to day life and a great way to do some craft without finding a space at home. Phone or email to book your spot. 12 spots filled so far, 20 still left.
More details here if you need them.
Back soon with more of my little Curly Label Punch Cards from yesterday using different paper packs. I'm having so much fun with these I think I'll try ALL the papers!
Cheers,
Sue
Love the colours you are using for all these cards Sue. I'll be so sad when Riding Hood Red and Pink Pirouette are no longer available...they are such beautiful colours.
