A little bit of cuteness and a little bit of sparkle...

And who doesn't love a little bit of cuteness and sparkle? It's my little nieces 1st birthday on Saturday. I know she won't appreciate my card at all but I'm sure her mum will.

I first saw this idea on Pinterest and I knew I had to CASE it and make it my own! And I think I have done that!

 

I've had the Dress Up Framelits Dies (#130101) for a while now but due to having to make all my swaps for the South Pacific Stampin' Up! Convention I haven't had time to use it until now.

 

 

How cute is that! At Convention we were inspired to use more Vellum and it makes a perfect fairy skirt and wings! I edged the vellum with the Silver Sparkle Dazzling Details to give it that silver sparkle. You do need to wait for the Dazzling Details to dry before you the skirt and wings together otherwise you may have Dazzling Details everywhere!

Stampin' Up! Convention 2013 Swap No. 3

This is my third and last swap. I've made a small little 'pouch' that would make a cute party favour for either a birthday,baby shower, wedding.

I used two die cuts from the Two Tags Bigz Die, scored the end at 2.5cm folded them under and stuck them together to form the 'pouch'. Inside I placed a small amount of sweets in a bag, taped it up and then stuck the bag to the inside so that it wouldn't fall out.

Don't you just love the addition of the Delicate Details Lace Tape down the front too! Makes it look so pretty!

Till next week when I give you all the Convention highlights!

Have Fun and Happy Stampin'

Stampin' Up! Convention 2013 Swap No.1

We'll I'm off to the Stampin' Up! Convention and this is my first time attending. I'm very excited and a little nervous to as this will be the longest I have been away from my hubby and kids on my own.

At the convention event other demonstrators and their guests make 'swaps' to swap with other demos. They can either be a card front or a small 3-D item. Over the next 3 days (if the post I have scheduled post when they are supposed to) I'll show you the swaps I made.

I made 3 different designs of swaps, making 25 of each because I think it would drive me a bit batty to make 75 of the one swap. Don't they say variety is the spice of life.

I made a wine glass charm , to put at the base of your wine glass to tell its yours, using our Soda Pop Tops and the stamp set Collage Curios and some cute packaging as well. These are in our current Seasonal Catalogue which finishes 30th June. So get yours before they are gone.

Till tomorrow for my next swap!

For My Oma Stippled Blossoms

This year my grandmother (or Oma as us dutchies call them) turns 85! I'm going to make the hour drive down the country to visit her for this special occasion.

I decided to use the beautiful stamp set Stippled Blossoms. I've had this stamp set in my stash for a while but haven't used it yet.

 

 

I got some inspiration from a fantastic Australian Stampin' Up! demo, Narelle Farrugia (Click here to see her blog) by using lots of layers. I love the two step stamping technique of this stamp set too by stamping the lighter colour first and then the darker on top.

 

 

 

I just love the way it turned out and hope Oma likes it too!
