Picture Perfect ....

Hi Everybody,

These are some more cards that are featured on the Spellbinders Pick of the Week show over on Create and Craft.

This one is called Picture Perfect and there are lots of ways that it can be used.

On this card I have cut the main part of the die in white and layered it over the starry sky.

Glitter has been added to highlight the snow area and the windows have small pieces of orange card glued behind for the light.

The pretty Gingham ribbon is from Mei Flower

And this is another way to use the die for a different  look and the bottom part of the picture is glittered with Chameleon Glitter from Glitter Magic

The added pearls are from Want2Scrap for an extra effect.

I hope you will join me on the 29th July at 12 Noon when I will be doing my very first "Live" TV demonstration for Spellbinders 

The Link is ... Create and Craft TV  and at the top of the page you will TV schedule and Watch Us Live 

Clicking the "Watch Us ..."  link will take you to the programme that is showing at the time but look for Spellbinders Pick of the Week on Tuesday and that is where I will be.

The programmes are repeated so if you can't be there at the time then you can catch it later by watching on-line

More tomorrow ...

Spellbinders Team ...

Hi Everybody,

I am so happy  to tell you that I have been invited to join  the Spellbinders Team and that many of my cards have been featured on the Pick of the Week

That in itself is a great honour but I am also excited to tell you that I will be appearing "Live"  on  Create and Craft TV  on Tuesday the 29th July at 12 Noon.

So I am asking for your support please to come and watch the show and if you can then email in  and tell us what you think

These cards feature the new Heirloom Reflections used in two different ways.

One is as a complete ornament to decorate the front of your card.

I have done these in a soft antique gold with a glitter card on top that matches.

The beautiful flourish is from Want2Scrap and adds elegance to the card.

The other is  using just the  filigree portion to create a  background and both  of   these cards are on the show.

With another sentiment on it this card could be for any occasion so don't put the dies away once Christmas is over with ... this you can use all year round

I hope you will join me on the 29th and see what we come up with on the show

More tomorrow ...

Spellbinders Holiday dies ...

Hi Everybody,

Have you been watching the Create and Craft Pick of the Week shows ??  And have you noticed some of the cards with big chocolate box bows on them ??  Ring any bells ??

Some of the cards featured on the show  are those that I have been busy making for Spellbinders and this is the one that has been the favourite of many people.

This is the 3-D Christmas Tree and it is selling very quickly .. so if this is the one you want then you will need to move fast before it sells out.

There are so many  ways to use this,   and indeed all of the dies that  are on the show,   and here are just two ideas  from the same tree die.

I will  show you other  ways to use these  dies over the coming weeks so if there are any that you really like I hope you manage to get them before they sell out.

I have been so busy but had so much fun with these dies and the cards are really lovely on completion.

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx
