Retirement

24 December, 201422 December, 2014 craftwithkate

Dear Crafters,

Well, my in-laws arrived yesterday (and no it’s not a bad thing, lol, I get along very well with them. She is also a SU demo!). But I had to wait until now to share this little creation with you, as my Mother-in-law has retired after many, many years being a Business Manager in a school in her country Victorian town. I needed something different and saw something similar but there were no instructions, so it took ages to cut and score and put together!!!!

Anyway, here it is!

Teapot Teapot

Can you tell it is a teapot? I sure hope so. My Mother-in-law loves her cups of tea, so what better type of card to make for her.

Teapot

I am not entirely happy with the spout, as it was a bit tricky!

Teapot Teapot

I have used Primrose Petals (retired) card stock and stamped Everything Eleanor with Soft Suede ink.

I used the Ovals Framelits to create the handle!

Then for the big reveal, when you open it up, you see this!

Teapot

The Whisper White card is embossed the new Spring Flowers TIEF which will be available during Sale-a-bration, starting 6th January 2015. I have left one side blank, as that is where I will attach the written message (that you don’t really need to see).

I used the Spiral Flower Original die in Primrose Petals and Raspberry Ripple (r) card stock. The leaves are die cut using the Flower Frenzy Bigz L die with Garden Green card stock.

Teapot

What do you think of this interesting creation? Something different, but I certainly wouldn’t be making loads of these, just for very special occasions and I think Retirement is certainly one of those!

Have a wonderful Christmas day tomorrow and a safe and healthy 2015!

Don’t forget that Sale-a-bration starts on 6 January 2015. If you would like to see the catalogue before then, I can happily mail it to you!

If you currently have a demonstrator you already order from, please request a copy from them to be fair to me and the other demonstrator. Delivery will be towards the end of December.

Lotus Blossom

19 December, 20145 January, 2015 craftwithkate

Dear Crafters,

Yay my pre-order for Sale-a-bration has arrived and I am so excited to share one of the products you can earn for FREE with any $90 order!!!!

Did you see my post last weekend showing you the cover of the Occasions Catalogue? Here it is again!

Saleabration Catalogue

And this floral bouquet has also arrived in my pre-order, so I will be making it up over the Christmas holidays. I bet you can’t wait for me to share this with you?!

Here is the Lotus Blossom stamp set. Now don’t be afraid when you see that it is two-step stamping, because this set is photopolymer and it is so easy to line up the stamps when they are completely clear, without using your stampamajig!!!

Lotus Blossom

I have used Old Olive, Pear Pizzazz, Blushing Bride, Rich Razzleberry & Strawberry Slush inks with the coordinating card stock.

I stamped the flowers onto scrap whisper white card and then cut each one out. You don’t have to do this if you don’t like to fussy cut, but I wanted some added dimension. I also sponged the edges of each layer of card stock to soften the edges.

Lotus Blossom

Don’t forget to stamp an extra flower on the inside of the card ~ it really does finish the project off nicely.

Would you like a copy of the Occasions & Sale-a-bration brochures? I have some now, so can mail out asap for you to browse through and make your wish lists prior to the sale date, 6 January 2015.

Catalogue Kick Off

5 December, 20145 December, 2014 craftwithkate

Hello Crafters,

Yesterday was a huge day for those of us who are Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators because it was party time!!!!

What’s party time without party poppers!

Many of us in the Art with Heart Team got together at Claire’s house for the worldwide live streaming from Ohio, USA; a sneak peek of the upcoming Sale-a-bration & Occasions catalogues.

Loads of new stamps and papers and embellishments (but unfortunately I can’t show you those just at the minute) but see the cheers to know they are gorgeous and we can’t wait to get our hand on them, especially the Mother’s Day stamp sets that say Mum and not MOM!!!!

Even prize patrol was a huge hit with 3 of our ladies winning prizes!

SU2

Some ladies provided everyone with a little Christmas treat.

SU3

Ang and I with some of them!

We enjoyed some amazing food and a gorgeous looking snow cake!

We all had so much fun!

Although this sale doesn’t start until 6th January, if you would like a catalogue before then to get your lists organised, please email me and I can pop it in the mail for you!!!

Hello Crafters,

This week, I am doing something out of the ordinary and having my first go at a sketch challenge at Just Add Ink! Yay me!!!!

Having never participated in a sketch before, I am very nervous and made a card that is not really my style. It is quite busy, when I usually make fairly clean style cards.

I have tried to stay with the circle elements, but have placed the ribbon to the opposite side. Here’s what I came up with, using the beautiful Fresh Prints Designer Series paper. I love these colours together and when just had to have this paper stack.

This Designer Series paper stack will be available during Sale-a-bration, starting 28th January through to 31st March . Be sure to email a request for your brochures today and you will be sure to love the new products too. There are also FREE products to choose from with every $90 spent!

Here is a close up of the Spiral Flower with sponged edges in crumb cake ink and the crystal effects added to look like raindrops!

This is another of my favourite “had to have” products from the Sale-a-bration catalogue available soon.

Stamps: Loving Thoughts
