Uniting in Work 12.10.08

Hi all,
Our classes for Term 4 have resumed at Uniting in Work. It was lovely to see all the ladies again, especially since I missed the last 3 weeks of term last term due to illness.

A couple of our regulars were missing (Joan, Henny and Tina) as they could not make it yesterday and Sonja joined us again this term (Sonja is usually with the Scrapbooking group). Jenni also started with us *waving*. Great to see your there Jenni!

For our class, we did two quick and easy Christmas cards. We will be doing a few Christmas themed cards this term. The ladies did a great job, as usual, and a few of them changed their cards a little (for the better, I think!)

Here are the cards the ladies madeAnd here they all are, holding their creations.
From left to right back row: (half of) Barb, Pat, Sonja and Heather
From left to right, bottom row: Kristel and JenniFrom left to right: Julie, Pam, Audrey and Barb
Thanks for stopping by today!

Little Scrapbook Shop DT Challenge

Howdy bloggers,

Just sharing some cards and tags I made for Little Scrapbook Shop. The team was given a challenge pack to work with, and these are what I came up with. As always, you can click on the images for a better view.



Recipe (Note that all links will take you to Little Scrapbook Shop)

~ Bazzill Smoothies - Cherry Red & Apple Crush
~ Bazzill Christmas Pack
~ Rhonna Farrer Christmas Felt
~ Sandylion Christmas Embellishments
~ KasierCraft Clear Stamps - Flourishes and Flourish Journals
~ Stazon Inkpad - Jet Black
~ American Crafts Mini Marks Rub-ons - Christmas Book 2 Black
~ KaiserCraft Round Gems
~ Gel pens - white & Black
~ Adhesives - Express It tape & Pritt Power Gel
~ Stitched Ribbon

Techniques used:

For the red card with "seasons greetings" - to get the scalloped edge, I just drew a line of scallops and cut them out with my scissors, then used a crop-a-dile to punch the holes along the row. Easy peasy.

For the 'happy holidays' and 'deck the halls' cards, the felt comes with little holes punched in them, which are the perfect size for the kaiser gems.
