Last week saw the first Card & Cuppa classes of 2019. As there is a new Spring/Summer Catalogue, along with SAB, I chose to use a new Stamp Set called Bloom by Bloom. This is a fabulous Stamp Set from the new Happiness Blooms Suite. It has a co-ordinating Bitty Blooms Punch Pack, DSP, Embossing
Last week’s Card & Cuppa was the final class project of 2018. It was the third of our special Christmas Cards too. This stunning wreath was made using the fabulous Sprig Punch. Garden Green and Real Red with the Making Christmas Bright Stamp Set make the centre sentiment, while Garden Green and Old Olive create
At last week’s Card & Cuppa class, the attendees all made this pop-up snowman card. The theme was a Christmas card suitable for children. The Balmy Blue base card is a zig-zag with the snowman popping out the fold in the back piece. Using the Making Christmas Bright Stamp Set, we stamped a piece for
Last week’s Card & Cuppa project was inspired by Page 119 of the Annual Catalogue. My version has layers and leaves. As I don’t use the Big Shot at my Card and Cuppa classes due to space limitations, I chose to use punches to create the layers instead. Soft Sea Foam creates the gorgeous base

I don’t have a Card & Cuppa project from last week to show you as there wasn’t a class. Instead, I’m sharing this Soft Sea Foam Birthday Card I made for one of my regular Card & Cuppa attendees. When Soft Sea Foam appeared as one of the new colours, this lady fell in love
I’ve been asked to make a card similar to this one, so I opted for Touches of Texture in monochrome. I really enjoy monochrome projects, so this was fun to make. The card is in Grapefruit Grove and Whisper White, but the attendees chose their colour from the 2018-2020 In Color Collection. After some clever
Today I’m sharing a Birthday Card I made for a friend. They were a fan of Elegant Eggplant (before it retired), so I’ve used Blackberry Bliss along with their other favourite, Crumb Cake. Oh So Eclectic Stamp Set and the matching Eclectic Layers Thinlits create this project. The pretty background lattice shows the Blackberry Bliss
Here is the 4th project from the 6 made at my Lovely As a Tree Class. This one is another ‘old’ project that has had a new colour makeover. The leaves from Lovely As a Tree are stamped randomly on the Pear Pizzazz Cardstock in Call Me Clover ink. Splats from the Swirly Bird Stamp
