Moonlight Sunburst!!

Here's the other card that I made at Chris's the other week.

It's a sunburst card, and it was a little bit faffy, but well worth the effort.

The colour combo is Smoky Slate. Hello Honey and Lost Lagoon -

I do so like these colours together with the white!

The papers are from the Moonlight DSP stack.

Flowers punched using the Pansy punch, the 1.1/4" Circle Scallop punch

and the tiny shamrock from the Itty Bitty Accents Punch pack.

The ribbon is Hello Honey 3/8" Stitched Satin Ribbon.

Tiny brads form the flower centres.

What do you reckon??

Shoe box swap

Today I will be in Pudsea with 12 more Jems Team members taking part in a shoe box swap.

This is my card that the other 12 will be making, and I will come home with another 12 different ones that I have made using their designs (hopefully!)

All the flowers are made using various sized scallop circles, plus the Boho Blossom punch.

The Oval frame is cut using the 4th and 5th Ovals (from the centre)

 of the Ovals Collection Framelits.

The leaves are cut using the Bird Builder punch.

The Colour Combo is Regal Rose, Pretty in Pink, and Pink Pirouette.

The sentiment is from Teeny Tiny Wishes.

Quarterly Training Swaps

Yesterday was our Stampin Up Team's quarterly training at Pudsey.  There were 30 of us there and as usual we have a swap.

I chose to do bookmarks. 

I managed to get them all done and labelled up in time (just)

and here's a few of them for you to see.

Close up

 

To make these bookmarks, I cut out a load of tags using the Two Tags Bigz die, in various colours, then stamped (and on some I also heat embossed) with the flourish from Creative Elements .
I made the flowers by punching 5 x 1.1/4"  scallop circles, spritzing them, then crumpling them up.
When dry I then fastened them together with a brad and glued them to the circular bit of the die cut.
On the close up photo I had to stick the small oval with the greeting on as I had dropped some glue on it!!
