Sam's Stampin Up Birthday Card

I made this card for my friend Sam and I hope she liked it!! The stamp is from Stampin Up's Soft Summer set and the card, papers and ribbon are left overs. The image is coloured in using watercolour crayons in Soft Subtles. I really love this stamp set and the sentiment is one of my favourites!

Peel Offs and Quilling

This the card I taught last Thursday (6 Aug). My ladies loved it, although one card ended up flying to the other side of the room (that's another story!).

I took inspiration from a card I saw online and tweaked it a little! It uses vase and foliage peel offs and quilled pegs and fringed flowers. Quilling is another technique I love and will be doing more soon!

Thanks to Denise and to Lu for making the drinks and looking very fetching in my pinny!! Janet those cream cakes were gorgeous, thank you!!

Taste of the Orient Iris Folding

Finally got around to posting this card! It's taken me a few weeks as I have been on holiday and we are in silly season (school holidays!).

I taught this card a couple of weeks ago and everyone enjoyed it! It was inspired by a card I saw in a book (sorry cannot remember which one), and as it used one of my favourite techniques, iris folding, I had to give it a go. I used a selection of different patterned and irridescent papers. The 'ribbon' and oval sticker were from an old oriental card making kit that I had forgotten I had. Hope you like it!!

Once again thanks to Denise and Lu for your hospitality and to Sue for the amazing chocolate cake.
