Fifth Avenue Floral


This is one of the cards I sold at the Go Otago Show on the weekend...

It's also one of the techniques at my April Technique class, the technique used on the card is called Floating Watercolouring, during my April Technique Class you will do a card similar to this using this technique and two other cards, one using Faux Stitching and the other Masking...

Technique Class runs from my home in Mornington on the 2nd Wednesday of every month from 7pm. Email me @ shellbellz@windowslive.com for more details!

Go Otago!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So this is our stand from the weekend... We had cards and 3d items to sell and were also showing off our classes we have for April... Now when I say "we" I'm talking about myself and my lovely downline Megan... her blog can be seen here: http://megan-finishingtouches.blogspot.com/


Now for something OTHER then cards... Cool little tag sets using the Cottage Garden stamp set and a Vintage Vogue stamp set...


Both ideas are from the lovely Andrea over at www.andreawalford.com

The dimensions for the tag set can be found here: http://andreawalford.com/?page_id=403

And the magnetic book marks where a part of Andrea's 2009 12 weeks of Christmas...

Missing Mojo, Missing Stamp-a-mag-jig

It seemed during the moving house I lost my Stamp-a-mag-jig. I have been trying to work on something for the last week that I needed it for, but could not find it. Without it my Mojo was gone, I didn't want to work on anything else, I couldn't until my poor Stamp-a-mag-jig was found. I tore my new craft space apart over and over again... Until yesterday afternoon I found it. And it was in a place where, well I would never have thought to look and I really don't understand WHY I would have put it there. Anyway it's back and with it my Mojo so I'll be posting again soon... Darn this thing called work. It does ALWAYS get it the WAY!
