Sheltering Tree for Coffee and Card

Hello there! Yesterday was a little bit strange as it was the first Tuesday I haven’t done my Coffee and Card as I am having a break for the school holidays. This was the card we made a couple of weeks ago inspired by one I saw on Pinterest which I haven’t had time to track down since I made it. 

 I wanted this Thinking of You to be a bright and summery card and think it does the job! I sent this to a friend the other day so I am safe to share it now.

Sorry for the short post. Its school holidays and although my boys are pretty self sufficient I struggle to get everything done that I would normally get done!

Sheltering Tree Technique

Good Morning readers! Another sunny day here in Yorkshire and I am busy busy preparing for our Team Training event at the weekend and also a party at lovely Lucy’s house on Friday evening.

Today I am sharing a simple card make at my Technique Club at the end of May. This was the first card we made, the “warm up” card as I like to call it. 

You may be wondering how I created the solid Pear Pizazz part and I simply turned the blossom stamp around and stamped on the back of the stamp to create this. As you can see I think there may have been a hair or something on the stamp as there is a little line, but it was too late, I had already stamped it! Hey I’m human too!

I love the Chevron Natural ribbon as it goes with so many projects, I am so happy it’s still in the catalogue.

Sheltering Tree Screen Card

Hello there! Thank you for your kind comments and views on my Cricket Card yesterday! My blog seems to have had a few extra hits yesterday! 

Today I am sharing a style of card that I have been wanting to make for some time, a screen card. I saw THIS ONE on an Australian Demonstrators blog and just had to CASE it, so full credit to Tricia Raineri there. 

We made this card in my Sheltering Tree Technique Class at the end of May, it was only a small class that afternoon but we got through the makes together nicely and in good time and it was a very pleasant class. Thank you to my ladies who attended.

We used the Hardwood background stamp to stamp a piece of card that was 28cm x 14cm and we scored it at intervals of 7cm to create the screen.

 Each little panel is it’s own work of art as we worked through the seasons. The Decorative Label punch is used to create the “legs” of the card at the bottom.

 I hope you like this make and it inspires you to use your Sheltering Tree stamps.

Sheltering Tree Fancy Fold Card

Hi there, as promised I have a crafty post for you today. I am incredibly lucky to have a  very talented team of demonstrators and this card was totally inspired by Amanda Bates at The Craft Spa. Not only is Amanda a very talented crafter and designer but she is also a great support to all in our team, we are very lucky to have her! Thank you Amanda for your fab designs.

We will be making this card at my Technique Club on Saturday 30th May and I have 5 places left at the moment. The cost is £28 to include your own Sheltering Tree stamp set OR if you already have it the cost is just £12.

The eagle eyed amongst you may have noticed that there are some new products on this card and some new colours too!!! More on that later, but all I can say is they are lush!

 I have kept the stamping simple on this card as its all about the fancy fold and design.

 Here is all the info. If you would like to book onto the class then the booking closes on Sunday evening

Sheltering Tree

Hello there and welcome back to my blog today! Just a quick share with you today of a card we made at my Tuesday Club a few weeks ago. This was based on a card we had made at my Stamp a Stack event at the end of January. Sheltering Tree has been an incredibly popular stamp set in the Spring/Summer Catalogue.

Again we made a Valentine themed card with this set but it is useable for so much more. In fact I have planned my March Technique Class around this set on Saturday 21st March. For £28 you can come along and make 3 cards using different techniques, in a small teacher led class and get to take the stamp set home with you (worth £22.95). Booking closes on Friday 13th March.

Hope you like my little make?

Sheltering Tree

Sheltering Tree has been one of my top selling stamp sets since the new Spring/Summer Catalogue launched in January and its a great set to have in your crafting stash. Such a versatile set but until today I hadn’t shared a card with you on here using it! This is a card we made at our Stamp a Stack event last month and it long overdue for sharing on here. So overdue in fact, that I have my next Stamp a Stack this evening!

I made this as a Valentine card and used the hearts stamp from the Perpetual Birthday Calendar stamp set which is great for backgrounds. The sentiments and fonts in this set are really nice and I decided to cut this one up into pieces to arrange on my card.

 A little Crisp Cantaloupe Bakers Twine just finishes this card off!

We are making another card using this set tonight at class!
