Crackle Paint & Paint Dabbers

I created this card for our Monthly Team Meeting Competition Challenge. For the competition we needed to use Crackle Paint & Paint Dabbers. I punched out a large daisy & painted it with crackle paint & used this daisy as a base under 2 more daisies punched using vellum. I stamped a piece of clear plastic sheet with a white paint dabber. The chalk leaves I stamped in black & embossed with clear embossing powder.

I really liked this colour combination & created the 12 x 12 page below, with similar products & techniques.

Be My Valentine

Can you believe Valentine's Day is just around the corner & January has already gone!!!!

I just love Kaszazz's NEW  4305KG - Cupids Arrow Stamp & created this card for my partner yesterday. I have embossed the letters & the message in red & stamped the cupids with warm red fluid chalk onto a white card. The message I mounted onto crimson bazzill. An effective card that was very easy to create, great for a beginner.

Cheers, Tina

Ebony & Ivory Creation

Becky my beautiful friend turned 40 last year. I wanted to create something for her that she could treasure forever. I came across this great "40" Chipboard Book, it was perfect to get creative with one of my favourite Kaszazz Paper Ranges "Ebony & Ivory". I made her a Signature Book & she loved it!!! Now she has lovely messages from all her guests that were at her 40th Birthday Party. It was also a great way to advertise my Kaszazz business, everyone asked me about it.

I am loving the TRI-FOLD card design. Thankyou to Kathy one of my customers for asking questions about this workshop. It got me all inspired. I have created 3 so far... they are so easy to make. Pop back tomorrow & check out my pink & green creation.

Cheers, Tina

 

Tour Down Under & Creations

Yesterday the Tour Down Under started at Snapper Point on the Esplanade, Aldinga Beach, right near our house. It was a beautiful day. In the afternoon we drove about 6 kms to Willunga to see the final presentations for this stage of the race. Today the race finishes with stage 6 around the streets of Adelaide. Below are some of the photo's I took. My other half was very excited to see Casey Stoner in the crowd. Motorbikes are more his idea of two wheel racing LOL!

New Purchase & Scrap Therapy Sessions

I am very excited!! I have been out shopping today & purchased a new to me (secondhand) large solid timber eight seater dining table for all my future workshops at home. My past table was a great size, but was not solid enough for stamping etc. So out with the old & in with the new. Can't wait to start creating!!

I have added a page tab to the top of screen with the dates & info for my upcoming SCRAP THERAPY SESSIONS. I will be hosting these at my place on a Monthly basis, on the 3rd Friday of the month, 8pm til' late.

BYO craft, come & share some creative fun with friends, spaces limited so please RSVP.

I created this pen tin over a year ago, just wanted to show you all how easy it is to grab some Kaszazz SB Papers (this one is from our Castaway range) & decorate a tin.

Cheers, Tina

 

Teacher Gift Idea

 

 Tamsin showed me these great little backpacks before Christmas. I made a couple up for my children's teachers, filled them with choccies. They made great little end of year gifts for them. You can find the template at http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/resources/tutorials/backpackbox/

They look great in our Kaszazz School Days papers too.

Hot, Hot, Hot!!!

The weather here in Adelaide has been so warm, we had a record attendance in our swimming pool yesterday, at one time there were 19 heads bobbing around the water. My youngest son is a keen fisherman & has been nagging me constantly to go out fishing on a boat, so on Saturday I booked my partner & I, plus keen fishing son onto a Fishing Charter for the day. We had a lovely time, here is a picture of one of Tyler's catches.

 We caught a variety of fish, this was Tyler's catch of the day, a GURNARD apparently they can be eaten but the have many poison spikes on their body. He kept this one for show & tell :)

We'll back to craft, below are some of the creations I have created over the holidays.

A very simple but beautiful looking card using Perfect Pearls above.

This is my version of Workshop 2H528 World Traveller Scollop Clock, I just love this. This workshop is created by Genevieve Payne. If you are interested in getting a group of friends together, pay a one off fee each for the workshop, all product supplied, I can teach you how to make this clock. Please contact me for more details.

These are the Christmas Cards I created this Christmas for our family. 

Cheers, Tina

Here's to 2010, Cheers!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL X

Hope you all had a fantastic time over the Christmas break.

I would like to say a personal thankyou to all who gave me handmade christmas cards this year, they WILL not be going in the recycling bin, but treasured for ever x

This year I have decided to take a break from the Blog Wars, I may join in again at a later date if others are still participating. In the mean time I will still be creating, running Workshops/Demo's & posting on my Blog, so please continue to pop back here for updates & hopefully be  inspired.

Two More Creations

While I was staying at Pam's on the weekend in Mt Gambier I bought the current issue of the "Better Homes & Gardens" magazine. The current issue has a number of paper/card projects you can make. These hearts were one of the designs & they were so easy to make. Perfect creation to make with our Kaszazz Christmas papers.

 

I created this card by shading & colouring the stamped image & card with pearlescent chalks. The photo does'nt really show it up but the card has a beautiful shimmer to it.

All products used are Kaszazz & I can order them for you. If you have any questions please contact me.

Cheers, Tina

It's been a while!!!

Hi All,

It's great to be posting on my Blog, it's been a few weeks since I've been here. Sorry about that!!

I have just returned from a "GIRLS ROAD TRIP" on Monday with fellow Kaszazz Consultants Margaret Lante & Lisa Hughes. We drove 500kms to Mt Gambier to spend some time with Pam Kuhn. We stayed at Pam's & had a wonderful time meeting other Consultants/Customers from Mt Gambier.

It was so nice just to getaway & spend some time with beautiful company, great wine, lots of lollies, chocolate & of course craft!!!

Thank you Pammy, Richard, Kyle & Amy for your hospitality xxxx

I have been creating over the past couple of weeks, but I have been keeping a little "secret squirrel" as I have been making gifts for people. I can show you some pictures of them now.

Below I created post-it note covers & monogrammed each gift with the receivers initial for a personal touch. They are such a great little gift to hand out to friends. I made them up to replace a christmas card by writing my little christmas message on the inside, on the first post-it note.

 I created this star decoration by embossing the "Swirl Tree Large" Stamp with stirling silver embossing powder.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 I will post two more of my recent creations tomorrow.
