Santa's Workshop #3 & Finale for Merry Monday !

The last of the large Santas Workshop Memories and More cards...

With a couple more small ones for those of you that were looking carefully!

Yes I couldn't resist chopping up one of the larger cards... so bringing my card total to 23 in total... 12 small and 11 large...

Though of course my ladies ended up with 20 as they only got half of those speciality ones from their half pack...

But thinking on for next year... armed with a full pack...

This format can so easily be a 40 cards class!! Just perfect for Christmas!

Embellishment just using the stickers in the M&M card pack... Dazzling Diamonds glitter, Red Rhinestone Jewels (discounted in the Year End CloseOut Sale... so stock up for christmas berries & baubles next year! I certainly am!) and stripy Thick Garden Green & White Bakers Twine...

Simple on Sunday - Santa's Workshop Memories & More cards

So the 10 small cards were shared yesterday...  So today it is time for some of the large cards...

First up are the 6 Speciality cards in the pack... which are all lovely and glittery...

The ladies had half a pack of the Memories & More cards  (now out of stock unfortunately!)...so they had an either/or choice...Hopefully self explanatory with these photos...

But this one was the revered one!! I thought we were going to have an auction - or a game of Pit - mid class!

Embellishment just using the stickers in the M&M card pack... Dazzling Diamonds glitter, Red Rhinestone Jewels (discounted in the Year End CloseOut Sale... so stock up for christmas berries & baubles next year! I certainly am!) and stripy Thick Garden Green & White Bakers Twine...

Saturday Memories & More Santa's Workshop cards #1

So I finally succumbed... and did a Memories & More Santa's Workshop card class that have been all the rage this year! So here are a few different versions for you...

I just have the 10 small cards to share with you today...

So much so "all the rage" ... that the M&M card packs have completely run out of stock in Europe (& pretty much worldwide I believe)...

Though you can still buy the Red Cards & Envelopes packs...which are great value if you haven't spotted them!

They may be simple... and so easy to put together... but such fun...

And I still got 20 cards even thought I only used half the pack of cards!

And just adding embellishment using the stickers in the M&M card pack... Dazzling Diamonds glitter,

Red Rhinestone Jewels (discounted in the Year End CloseOut Sale... so stock up for christmas berries & baubles next year! I certainly am!)

and stripy Thick Garden Green & White Bakers Twine...

But just one regret... I didn't buy the co-ordinating Enamel Shapes... I think they were out of stock at the time... what a shame!

And 2 versions of this last card... as I started off adding Dazzling Diamonds glitter to make a glittery yellow bow( as shown below)... but then thought what the heck... and grabbed the gold glitter instead... 

And its funny... I prefer the gold bow in the flesh... but I prefer the yellow bow version from these photos!!

Memories & More...

This one is especially for Jane... as requested...

So here is a round up of the new catalogue Memories & More offerings... You know the ones... the cards for photo pocket scrapbooking... where you just pop photos and cards in various sized pockets in a page... add a few words to log the moments (or jog the memory at a later date!)... and put in a small or large album... or alternatively... use the card designs to pop onto a card and send as a greeting card...

First up... click here for the "show the cards" and some example pages in the Stampin Up video by Tanner...

Second up... the On Stage Display Boards...  just click on the board photo to go to the product details... and remember that these all co-ordinate with a suite or kit...

Petal Garden Memories & More Gift Bag

Coming to the end of the series now... with what may be the simplest handmade gift bag ever!

A medium sized 4 3/4" high gift bag using the Gift Bag Punch Board... using a piece of 6" x A4 long Thick Whisper White card (29.8cm or about 11 3/4" for my US readers) decorated with just one of the Petal Garden Memories & More cards... and Calypso Coral Ombre Ribbon to close off...

No excuse for me not to quickly and prettily wrap up anything to gift now... though I may just add a few pretty flowers when it is time to go...

Petal Garden Memories & More Large Double Z Joy Fold card

The last of the trio of Double Z Joy Fold cards using the Petal Garden Memories & More card pack and Petal Garden papers today...

A large 14.8cm Square (almost 6" for my US readers) card... with simple decoration care of 3 of the Memories & More cards for an easy make!

I just have to add a greeting to the inside when the time is right... as the Happy Birthday Gorgeous "It's Your Day" sentiment on the front will suit most occasions...

Memories & More Petal Garden Garden Bench #3

Onto Day 3 of my series of greeting cards made from a Memories and More card pack series....

Oh I couldn't believe how well 2 of the cards from the Memories & More Petal Garden card pack could be simply cut to produce this little scene on a re-sized U Fold card... (original sized U Fold version tutorial shared here)

Bench seat created using the Wood Crate dies and Window Sheets... greetings from Happy Birthday Gorgeous and little heart from Bookcase Builder

All finished off with roses fussy cut from the Petal Garden papers... though small flowers could be just as easily stamped to avoid the fussy cutting if that isn't your thing!!!

Remember to email me if you are interested in a Class in the Mail (UK & Europe only) or a Tutorial Bundle... happy to oblige if sufficient interest... 

And I can hear some of you asking ... which cards did I use from the Memories & More Petal Garden pack? Well these cards... one of the large and one of the small.... 

Memories & More Petal Garden Double Z Joy Fold Card #2

Continuing my little series of Memories & More Petal Garden card pack & Petal Garden cards...... hee hee... that is a bit of a mouthful!

So another re-sized Double Z Joy Fold card for Day 2... a landscape version this time... this being a variant of this standard sized one shared earlier... centimetres here and inches here

Love this colourway... Calypso Coral, Old Olive & Pool Party... and I particularly love the paper on the back section of the card! So gorgeous...

Greetings from Colorful Seasons... and finished off with Calypso Coral Ombre Ribbon...
