Punch Potpourri

The best thing about holding a Stampin’ Up! Workshop is all the Hostess benefits you can earn and right now its even better! From now until the end of June when you host a workshop and the sales come to $450 your hostess benefits get a special boost! You get a bonus $70 to spend – so instead of $40 to spend you now get $110 – but only till the end of June!

Another Hostess benefit you can earn is the free Hostess sets and one of those is the gorgeos Punch Potpourri set. This is a gorgeous set that has been designed specifically to use with a few of our Stampin’ Up! Punches and only available to Hostesses.

Here is a card I made that I cased from Shelley Long in USA and using the Punch Potpourri Hostess set

Vintage Wings

Its been a very very wet long weekend here – we’ve had lots of rain so its kept us inside but that’s OK cos I got new cupboards to put in so we’ve been reshuffling the house all weekend. I am glad to report that we are nearly back to normal and we’ve recycled what we can, donated a couple of items to friends and thrown out a lot of rubbish!

The cupboards look great and so happy with them – just have to wait for two more doors to attach as they didnt come in the delivery.

Last Friday I did a workshop for a lovely friend and she asked if the make n take could be something using the embossing folders and butterfly dies. So what’s a girl to do??  then the perfect card popped onto my head – and it wasnt even painful!

Here is what we made ….

Elegant Embossing

Happy Friday!

I am on a group where we were given a challenge to do a technique that we havent tried before – to me that in itself is a challenge! So after thinking for a while I thought I’d try the Inked Embossing Technique – now I dont know if there is a correct term for this or not but thats what I’m calling it!

You simply ink up one side of a Textured Impressions Folder – you can swipe the ink pad all over till its covered or you can use your brayer to apply the ink. You then pop your cardstock in and run it through the Big Shot and awesome wowness :)

Here’s my card …

How nice did this turn out??

I inked up the Vintage Wallpaper Embossing folder with Elegant Eggplant classic ink and then ran it through with a piece of Perfect Plum cardstock. I just love it!

I’ve then finished off the card by adding some ribbon and the sentiment and gorgeous daisy from the Every Moment stamp set – new in the 2010-2011 Idea Book & Catalogue. I just love this stamp set and have made a couple of cards with it over the past couple of days and will share them with you in time.

Makes a very ‘queasy’ card (quick and easy – a new Onie-ism)
