Stained Glass Technique on Vellum

categories: Birthday, Blendabilities, Cards, Facebook Live, Techniques

Hi everyone!

I thought I would pop past today and share my project and YouTube video on how I use the Stained Glass Technique on Vellum to create a lovely Stained Glass effect on stamped images.

I created this card some time ago on a Facebook Live Video and realised recently that I hadn’t posted the information for it! Apologies for that!

I created some special Thank you Note Cards using this technique –

I promise – these cards are quick and simple to create. You can take a look at my How To video HERE .

These cards are our Notecards and Envelopes. A great value pack of 20 notecards and envelopes, already prescored for you, and available in Whisper White or Very Vanilla to make your card making extra easy!

The piece of vellum for this card front measures 3 3/8″ x 4 7/8″ (or 8.5 cm x 12.5 cm!)

The colours I chose for the Stampin Write Markers where:

Leaves – Wild Wasabi and Pear Pizzaz

Petals – Melon Mambo and Rose Red or Pool Party and Bermuda Bay.

Can you imagine these now created with our Stampin Blends!!! I can’t wait to give those a try!

Happy Crafting Friends 🙂

CTC 152 – Painted Autumn – Christmas Treat Tube Holders

categories: 3D, 3D; Christmas, Blog Hop, Cards, Challenges, CTC, Facebook Live, Gift Box, Off the Page, Paper Boxes

A big Hello to you all!

I’ve been super busy with Picture to Page and Market Nights the past couple of weeks, so it’s lovely to be back!

Welcome to CTC 152 – Painted Autumn / Spooky Nights on pages 48 – 55 of the Holiday Catalogue.

I don’t really do Halloween, but this fun section has one of my absolutely favourite items! The treat tubes!

I had a team meeting recently and I thought it would be lovely to treat them to a hot chocolate. Not just any hot chocolate, one they could make themselves! Lol

So we made these cute as Christmas Treat Tube Holders all dressed up for Christmas.

One tube holds the Hot Chocolate, the other is filled with mini marshmallows. I found the original idea on split coast stampers HERE from Lisa Somerville. I noticed her double holder was missing one measurement – so here they are:

Take a piece of cardstock 11″ x 5 1/2″ for the Box Base and score on the long side at 1/2″; 1 3/4″; 4 1/4″; 5 1/2″ and 8″. Score each short side at 1 1/4″.

My measurements for the cardstock layers and DSP are:

Top Panel Cherry Cobbler – 2 7/8” x 2 3/4”

Top Panel DSP – 2 3/4” x 2 5/8”

Bottom Panel Cherry Cobbler – 2 7/8” x 2 3/8”

Bottom Panel Whisper White – 2 3/4” x 2 1/4”

The best bit – the Be Merry Designer Series Paper is currently included in the Buy 3 Get 1 Free DSP sale! You could make sooooooo many of these with that great special! But it’s only until October 31st!

Just imaging all the little goodies you could fill these Tubes for Christmas or any other occasion. They could even be used as a little gift and place setting on your Christmas table – just add a name to the bottom panel for a more personal touch.

I just recommend adding the ribbon before filling the tubes! It can be a bit tricky to tie them whilst trying not to spill the contents! Lol.

I hope you have enjoyed this weeks project. It’s now time to hop on over to the lovely Rachel to see what she has created for you all!

Don’t forget to play along with this weeks challenge by creating your own project and uploading to our Facebook Page

Happy Crafting everyone 🙂

CTC 134 – No Bones About It Babies and Kids

categories: Blog Hop, Cards, CTC, Facebook Live, Kids Cards

Welcome to the next CTC blog hop, where this week we CASE (Copy And Share Everything or Copy And Selectively Edit) from the ‘babies and kids’ section of the Annual Catalogue.

Today I am CASEing the project on page 109 of the catalogue using the No Bones About It Stamp set. Just the stamp set you need for any dinosaur lover – which just happens to be my nephew who needed a birthday card 🙂

I love the card on the right hand side. If I don’t have a piece of designer paper that suits my needs then I just pick a stamp set and create my own.

Have you ever tried it? It really is a lot of fun and makes it quick and easy to complete a set of cards all at once.

Simply choose the colours and imagery you want, then set to work randomly stamping the images on an A4 piece of whisper white card stock. Cut it up to create four card fronts! It really is that easy. Here is what I created this week…

This first card has just a couple of extra elements like the background coordinating colour behind the sentiment, as well as a couple of fussy cut leaves and a dinosaur on dimensionals for a bit of extra fun!

My second card uses the same background, but has a different feel when the extra elements and the background colours are changed…

So from one sheet of whisper white, I was able to make these four cards of two different designs. You could change it up even more and have a different colour background for all four.

One sheet – four cards, 2 designs. It’s that simple!

Try it with any stamp set at all. Baby, flowers, insects, artsy…whatever you desire!

Pop on over to see my you tube video HERE on how I created this background paper and others 🙂

Here is my template for the One Sheet Wonder mentioned on the video:

One Sheet Wonder

Now it’s time to hop on over to the lovely Judy to see what she has created for you all!

Dont forgot to come back and play along after you have taken the hop. Create your own CASE and share it to our Facebook Group right HERE – no blog necessary!

Happy Stamping

Magical Mermaid Shaker Card

categories: Birthday, Cards, Facebook Live, Techniques

Hi Everyone.

I couldn’t resist popping back so quickly to share another of my Magical Mermaid cards. I told you I LOVED this set! This time I decided to create a shaker card in purple and pink hues.

Magical Mermaid Shaker Card

The base of this card was created during my Sunday Night Live Video on Facebook, where I demonstrated how to create the same background on my mermaid card in the recent CASEing the Catty blog hop. You can see that one HERE.

I told everyone that I would finish off the card in these ‘New’ colours and show you all.

Well, here it is!

This one has so many of our gorgeous new products. The colours are 3 of our new In Colour Range – Powder Pink, Berry Burst and Fresh Fig. And our New Iridescent Sequin Assortment suited this shaker card perfectly.

The Mermaid’s beautiful glossy tail is again achieved by first watercoloring the image and gradually building and blending layers, before coating the whole thing with the Fine Tip Glue Pen. It gives of such a glossy smooth finish – and no sticky feel AT ALL! Definitely one to add to your tool kit!

For some added bling I popped on a couple of our New Glitter Enamel Dots!

Take a look at my Video HERE to see just how easy these beautiful watercolour backgrounds are to create!

I have an amazing special running for the month of June so you can get a Big Bang with your New In Colours Purchase with some coordinating FREE accessories! Everything you need to start creating right away!

Shaving Foam Technique

categories: Birthday, Cards, Facebook Live, Flowers, Techniques

Hi Everyone!

Today I’m back to share my Stamp it Sunday Facebook Live video on how to create brilliant background using the Shaving Foam Technique!

It’s so simple, so messy and so fun! And just take a look at the stunning backgrounds you can create. The skies the limits with hundreds of potential colour combinations!

Here is my favourite so far!

My boys actually choose these colours – My youngest said his favourites are Rich Razzleberry and Melon Mambo, then they choose some of the new Powder Pink! It matched the Ribbon of Courage Stamp Set beautifully. I was lucky enough to win this at the demonstrator On Stage event! I was one very happy girl! This one was created with a lovely friend and downline in mind and it has already been sent to it’s new home!

These two were created using Wisteria Wonder, Flirty Flamingo and our new Lemon Lime Twist reinkers! Teamed with our Daisy Delight bundle to create some lovely Gerber’s. You can highlight different colours from your batch of shaving foam. These two still need sentiments which I will save until the right occasion arises!

Great for smaller card with big bold sentiments…

Or use the patterned card to create your embellishments!

So many variations! I encourage you to try it!

You will need:

-shaving cream (cheapest one will do)

-something to squirt your shaving cream in to (I used a plastic plate)

-reinkers in colours of choice

-something to swirl your colours

-something to scrape the foam (i used an old iTunes card)

-whisper white cardstock

Take a look at my You Tube Video to see exactly how it is done over at My Paper Oasis.

And then go get messy and have some fun.

Lining Up your Delicate Details Stamps

categories: Birthday, Cards, Facebook Live, Techniques

Hi Everyone!

Today I wanted to share with you my Stamp it Sunday Live video creation, where I gave a couple of tips and tricks for creating this weeks card.

In my video, I explained exactly how to Line Up your Delicate Details Stamps to achieve a lovely straight and consistent result when stamping multiple rows of them! I also snuck in how to create a rectangle using our Stitched Shape Framelits! A video full of goodness just for you!

Here’s the card we created using those beautiful, intricate, lacy delicate details stamps!

You may remember the Gold Version I created for a CASEing the Catty challenge a while back – you can see it HERE – well this one was similar, but i went for a white embossed background before sponging some of our current In Colours over the heat embossing. The great thing about sponging is, you can create as such or as little depth of colour as you desire!

You can watch the video over at my You Tube channel – My Paper Oasis – to see exactly how this card was created and to hear all my tips.

You can still get this stamp set ABSOLUTELY FREE with any $90 order – but ONLY until March 31st – so you had better be quick! If you are in Australia you can shop at my secure online store by clicking the link below! All products used are listed below to help you recreate this card yourself 🙂

Layer One – Sweet Sugarplum Cardstock – 5 1/2″ x 3 3/4″

Layer Two – Whisper White Cardstock – 5 3/8″ x 3 5/8″

You will have to measure the Basic Black Layer behind your sentiment after you have cut your rectangle in Whisper White (see video for why).

Happy Creating!

Valentine’s Card Sealed with Love

categories: Birthday, Cards, Facebook Live

Hi everyone,

I’m popping back in to say hello and give you all the info for my card that was made on my Facebook Live Video this week. It’s coming up to Valentine’s Day, and even though I don’t do much to celebrate Valentine’s Day, lots of people do! And it’s always nice to give a handmade card isn’t it?!

If you subscribe to my blog posts you may have noticed that I have been playing with the Sealed with Love quite a bit. I am a sucker for those tiny envelopes! What’s not to love. And I think it’s a fantastic versatile set – really not just for valentines. This tiny envelopes are perfect for secret hidden notes, you could pop a quick message in your kids lunch boxes or leave them around the house to find and they are soon perfect for scrapbooking and having a sneaky hidden message! So many possibilities!

I really wanted to keep this one simple, without lots of fussy elements to make the card more versatile. One of the best bits about this – if you purchase the bundle and the matching Designer Series Paper Stack you get a FREE item of your choice form the Saleabration Catalogue! There’s something for everyone – stamps, card kits, tins, Designer Papers! Simply use my ‘Shop Now’ button, or click on the images below for simple, online shopping 🙂

You can watch my video over at my You Tube Channel My Paper Oasis to create your very own card. Here are all the measurements too –

Card Base – Crumb Cake or Kraft Card 4 1/8″ x 11 3/4″

Layer One – Real Red 3″ x 3″

Layer Two – Soft Sky cut using the largest Stitched Shapes Die – 2 5/8″ square

All hearts cut using Gold Foil.

Envelope from Sending Love Designer Series Paper Stack.

Happy Crafting!
