Inspire Creationz Acetate Cardmaking Class - 1st September

 
Hello All,
 
I just thought I would share with you the cards made at our Acetate Class that we held on the 1st September.  Great fun was had by all and included lots of cutting, gluing and sticking.  I just love the card above which was made with the Hunkydory Topaz kit and a sheet of Acetate.
 
The card below was made to show how acetate can be used as a card blank and as embellishments.  We used the Tim Holtz Tattered Florals die to cut out the flower shapes which we then embossed using the Bigshot: 

 
We will certainly be using more acetate on cards now.  Please pop back soon for lots of other designs we are working on
 
P.S. To book on one of our classes please visit our website www.inspirecreationz.com - all classes must be booked and paid for in advance to secure your place - so book early to avoid disappointment...

Inspire Creationz Stamping Class - August 2012


Happy Bank Holiday everyone - hope you are having a lovely day.

Just thought I would share a quick photo of one of the cards we made on Saturday at our stamping class.  We concentrated on how you can use stamps and inks to create backgrounds, images and use inks more to co-ordinate projects.  A lovely afternoon crating was had by all!!!

I have to say that the Stamping Classes are my favourite as it is so interesting to see how everyone uses inks and stamps slightly differently but the creations are so unique and beautiful!  Already looking forward to the next one where we will be stamping Christmas Cards.

Hope you can pop back soon xxx

The Great British Craft Festival Part 2 - Make & Take with Phill Martin



After all the negative comments surrounding The Great British Craft Festival we can honestly say that the Sunday was a lot better organised that the Saturday. We could get access the the Make & Take sessions and spend time on the stalls.  We thoroughly enjoyed the day and came away with lots of new crafting goodies.

Above is a photo of an Acetate Stepper Card made with the new Hunkydory Christmas Range.  This card was made in the Make & Take session with the totally lovely Phill Martin from Honeypot Crafts and Create & Craft TV.   He was happy to have his photo taken with us:



Thanks Phill for a lovely hour crafting - this session has certainly given us lots of ideas for our classes and using Hunkydory products xxx

Our new Class dates for September / October are now on our Facebook Events Page - please note - all classes must be booked and paid for in advance either at the Market or via Paypal - bookings have already be taken so book early to avoid disappointment!!!

Christmas Crafting with La Blanche Stamps & Dovecraft Vintage Christmas Papers


Two new cards made with my new La Blanche Foam Stamps. 

I just couldn't resist the temptation to have a play with the new Dovecraft Vintage Papers and La Blanche Stamps - both worked really well together and Old Olive is my favourite Christmas ink colour.

I have started my Christmas cards in earnest now - last year only started in December so thought I had better get a move on.  I hope you enjoy xxx

Diamond Pocket Fold Card Class


We really enjoyed our Cardmaking Class yesterday using the Hougie Board.  We made the Diamond Pocket Fold Card shown above and a Theatre Card all scored using the Hougie Board to give everyone the opportunity to have a play.

We are really pleased how this card turned out and we all had so much fun.  Below is a picture of the card open - just ready for a sentiment.  We used the Stamping Up Delicate Doilies for the images and the papers are from the Dovecraft Boho Chic range.



Please pop back soon as lots more crafting projects to share with you xxx

Where is the week going?? I just wanted to share the picture above of the class we held on Saturday - enjoyed by all and I have to say the tags books are sooooo easy to make but are beautiful when finished - ready for that special occasion!!!!
