Christmas Cheer

I want to thank Julie & Carole for these lovely gifts they created for ALL Kaszazz Consultants at our Team Meeting this week. They had a very large basket full of these gorgeous little "Choccy Boxes" all various designs, all created with Kaszazz stamps & products. Below is mine I took home & unbelievably it still has the choccies in it. Thanks again Carole & Julie xx

I also received this lovely handmade Christmas card from Leeann Koesters.

Two more Christmas ATC's. My ATC folder is now very full of inspiring creations from Kaszazz Consultants from all over Australia, time to create another. Stay tuned. I will make it my craft goal for over the Christmas break.

Wishing you a lovely weekend everybody.

Cheers, Tina

ATC's - Pink & Glitter

These are my latest collection of ATC's received. The theme this month for our Kaszazz Team meeting was Pink & Glitter. Thank you to all the consultants who participated this time around.

Below -  I have been creating a little "Colour Sample Book" to show customers how colours of particular products look. The colours sometimes vary to how they look in the catalogue. This little book is a great way for customers to see the colours before they purchase. I have started with all the "Smooch" colours & am going to add other products eg: paint dabbers, distress inks, etc.

 

Cheers, Tina

Distressed ATC

I am off to Pam Kuhn's Inspirational Getaway this weekend in Keith. Leeann Koesters & I are travelling up there together. Can't wait to participate in some NEW Workshops designed by Cheryl Devlin, Debbie Dawson, Julie Nash & Pam herself. Will be great fun!!

We are also having a "Distressed" Theme ATC Swap over the weekend & up to 20 girls are participating YEY!! I am loving creating & swapping ATC's at the moment. Above is the ATC I have created using our NEW Large Tiger stamp, just beautiful!!! I always loved Tigers growing up & my bedroom was full of pictures, cushions etc, of Tigers. I have grown out of that phase in my life now, but I do love our new Tiger stamp.

P.S: Kate D this post is especially for you Girlfriend!!! :) :) :)

Cheers, Tina

 

February ATC - Romance

This is my monthly ATC, the theme is Romance. I created this by stamping  958LM Tulips & Music, in black & embossing with clear powder, onto one of Kaszazz's new Romance themed SB papers. This one is 1325 Word Montage / Club. I placed a dab of Molasses Smooch into the centre of each club pattern on the SB Paper, punched a heart from 4638 Silver Roses vellum & stamped "passion" from our ATC stamp set with warm violet fluid chalk.

Cheers, Tina

Team Meeting

Last night I attended our Monthly Kaszazz Team Meeting hosted by my Senior Team Leader (Cheryl Devlin). Each month Cheryl gives our team a little competition challenge to do, if we wish to participate. This month's competition was to create a Make & Take Bookmark using at least 2 stamps, in black & white theme with a hint of 1 other colour of our choice! The winner is chosen by majority vote. Below is my bookmark & lucky me!!! I was chosen the winner!!! Thanks Girls x

To all the girls who gave me such positive feedback about my Blog last night, thank you so much!! It made me feel all warm & fuzzy inside :) I thoroughly enjoy creating for my Blog & feel so good about inspiring others. 

We also had our ATC swap last night, the theme was Mosaic.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

With my ATC, I first stamped, embossed & blended images onto white card stock. I then cut the trimmed image into 1cm squares & adhered them to a piece of double sided sticky paper. This is a time consuming exercise, so beware!! Once I finished adding the pieces to the sticky paper I trimmed it to size, then embossed between the squares with sterling silver embossing powder. Finished by sticking it to a piece of crimson bazzill.

These are the other ATC's I received.

Summer ATC's

This month's ATC swap was Summer themed & it was so nice to think about warmer weather & all things brighter. The weather at home has been so miserable & my round trip to drop the kids to school this morning (which takes me an hour) there were so many up rooted trees from the "blowing a gale" windy conditions last night, we even had some hail.

Above is my ATC gallery folder, I don't think I have shown you it before? & below are the new ATC's I received at Team Training on Wednesday night. I love adding to my ATC Collection!!!!

Cheers, Tina

Blog War Day 5 - Teddy Bears Picnic & Team Meeting

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

"Red & Green" was this months ATC Theme, for our swap at Team Meeting this week. Above is the beautiful ATC's that each Consultant created & mine's on the left.

For our hands on activity at our Team Meeting, we all made the gorgeous white christmas card below, created by Cheryl Devlin. The other Green Christmas card I created, both cards using the NEW Christmas in July Stamps & Papers. Love them!!!

I received this (ATC) Artist Trading Card back in May from Julie Nankervis. Perfect for our Teddy Bears Picnic Blog War Theme. Julie has used the small,  medium circle punches & a metal hole punch to create this cute little bear.

My first baby turns 13 tomorrow. Happy Birthday Reece!! Just where does the time go? Wish me luck beating him at Go-Kart racing. GAME ON!!

Cheers, Tina

Rivergums Business Training Weekend

I have just got back from a fabulous Business Training Weekend away at Rivergums Homestead. I would like to send a "HUGE" Thank You to my Senior Team Leader Cheryl Devlin for organising this wonderful opportunity for me & the other consultants in her team who wanted to attend. We learnt some great skills & heaps of information about how we could develop our own Kaszazz Business to what ever level we wish to acheive. The weekend away was not only relaxing & FUN!!!!  but very inspiring for me.

I personally joined Kaszazz to make some new friends & now I'm looking forward to growing as a Team Leader.

If you would like to learn more about Kaszazz & having your own Kaszazz Business please contact me. I would be happy to send you a Kaszazz Business information pack.

Above is the ATC's I created for all the Consultants who attended the Business Training.

Cheryl gave us a little creative homework to do before we arrived.

We were asked to create our own personal SUCCESS JOURNAL (below), & a "HOW  CAN I" plaque (above) to keep us inspired & motivated. My HOW CAN I plaque is the dark blue one.

 Below is my SUCCESS JOURNAL. I created this with papers from the new World Traveller SB Paper range.

From left: Me, Leeann, Angela, Naomi, Cheryl, Tammy, Trish, Polly & Deb

My FRIENDS!!!

Blog War Day 1 to 4 - Choose Your Weapon!

This week for the Blog War, the topic is choose your weapon! I have chosen "Embossing". Embossing is a technique I am not very confident doing, so this week will give me a chance to better my skills at it.

I have created these cute little "Chinese Takeaway Boxes". I have been wanting to make one since seeing Joanne create one on her Blog. They are a great little gift box idea, & you can personalise them any way you would like.

I only have a couple of embossing powders. I have used gold & copper on these projects. If you have any questions, please contact me.

The ATC's (Artist Trading Cards) I have created below are for my next swap, which is "Mother" themed. Stay tuned I will be posting some more ATC's soon.

Cheers, Tina

ATC - Artist Trading Cards

I have just discovered ATC's, and love them! I've joined a club with Kaszazz Consultants and I can't wait to get creative & start trading with others. If you would like to get creative & trade Artist Trading Cards with your friends, Kaszazz has the perfect ATC Stamp for you. It's HUGE! a full A4 sized un-cut stamp. Full of names, quotes, symbols & tags.

Above - This ATC - Getaway, is my very first creation. The "Shell Border" is my favourite stamp at the moment, and it is one of the newest design's which can be found in the Kaszazz - New Jan 09 Product Flyer. 

Below - I have covered a folder to create an "ATC Gallery" to store all of my cards. The ATC's are a perfect size to fit into plastic trading card sleeves, I picked up 10 for $5 at a Newsagency.

If you would like any information about ATC's or wish to join a Trading Club, please contact me.

Cheers, Tina
