Shaving Cream Technique

Hi Everyone, i have been meaning to post this card for ages.

I did this card for a workshop a while ago and everyone loved making it (although it was an extremely messy experience!!). We used the Shaving Cream technique which involves shaving cream and re-inkers. A little tricky but well worth the effort I believe.

The stamp sets used are Pocket Silhouettes and Curvy Verses.

Let me know what you think...

Sorry!!

Ok ok ok ... I know I have been a really slack blogger and I have made heaps of cards to post but just never seem to get around to uploading them. So today I will show you two cards that I made a while ago.

The first one is a male card. I don't do a lot a male cards so I find them a little hard and tend to take a lot of time when I do make one.



I love the occasionally set as they are the perfect size for so many of our tag punches. I will hopefully have some more male cards with some of the new stamps from the Spring mini soon

Stamps used: Totally Tool, Occasionally
Card: Baja Breeze, Chocolate Chip, Close to Cocoa


The second card is a card that I guess could be used for either male or female. I forget to use SU! double sided paper on cards so with this one I thought I would have a play with some of the new papers.



I have also had a play with the scallop square punch. Anyone who knows me, knows I looovvvveeee my punches!!! They are so easy to use and make layering so quick and fun.

Stamps used: Pocket Silhouettes, Say It with Scallops
Card: Kiwi Kiss, Tangerine Tango
DSP: Haiku
Old Olive Ribbon

Mother's Day

We had a Mother's Day stall at school today and I donated some little notebooks and pens for sale.



I used some Blue Paper that had quite a rough texture and was covered in glitter. I ran it through the Cuttlebug. The top layer is Whisper White. I stamped it with one of the plant stamps from the Pocket Silhouettes set using Tempting Turquoise ink. I punched the border with our new Eyelet Border Punch. I tied some gold cord around the base of the plant. The bag tag was stamped using the Occasionally set and Pacific Point and Tempting Turquoise ink

They must have been a hit because when my son went up to the stall they were all gone.

I hope all the Mum's out there have a great Mother's Day!!
