Inspiration - Masking Technique

Botanicals For You is the stamp set used today. 

This set is one of the FREE products you can get through SALEABRATION. 

 

A large but very effective message, Just For You was heat embossed in clear powder. 

I used sponges to add several shades of pinks over white cardstock. 

Ending with stronger colours on the outer edges of the image and the background mat.

To finish off I used Melon Mambo ink and a mask from Happy Patterns set of 4 masks

 to give the diamond shapes on the background mat.

A piece of ribbon was also sponged the same way to give a shaded colour too.

Don't forget that during January and March 31st, Stampin' Up! have SALEABRATION time. 

For every £45 spend on product within the ideas books and catalogues, you can choose any 1 of the FREE products in the Saleabration leaflet. 

£90 will entitle you to 2 FREE products,

 £135 will give you 3 FREE products and so on.

Interested? Please contact either Cary or Gill and we will be happy to help.

See you tomorrow with some more inspiration.

Christmas starts!

1st Christmas Class of 2015 

1st September - One sheet wonder

Some of our ladies haven't done a one sheet wonder before, 

so we decided that it would be good to introduce them to it. 

Using Be The Star, Perpetual Birthday Calendar, Sassy Salutations,

 Wonderful Wreath, framelits and stamp sets.

 

 The finished results by the amazing ladies.

 We love the way that they all do something slightly different.

Well what a day!!! Great fun at regional training but boy that M25 can be a real car park!!!

Any way one of my favourite parts of any Stampin' Up! event is the opportunity to swap samples with other demonstrators and boy are there some talented people out there!!

The photo is off my swap I've used the latest addition to the Stampi' Up! colour family the 2011-2013 " In-colours", Calypso Coral, Island Indigo, Pool Party and Wisteria Wonder. The stamp used are from new sets, Delicate Doilies and Parlour Prints. All of which which will be available from the 1st of October.

well I've got more training next week so off to make some more swaps for then. Good job I got loads of inspiration today!!!

Have fun
