Well since getting my delivery of the new occasions catalogue products I can't stop playing with them. On these cards I have used the background stamp "Something Lacy" 


This one is heat embossed in Sliver on Vellum layered onto Whisper White card stock then adhered to Basic Black card stock



Another one heat embossed in gold on vellum layered onto Gold with a Whisper White base



And on this card I heat embossed in White on vellum, coloured with Blendabilities. 
Then adhered to Blushing Bride

You would have just left  Rose Desmond @ Stamping with Rosalie be sure to click on the next button further down to continue your journey on this blog hop.

Now you may not be aware but I am not a fan of Designer Series Papers, I would rather create my own backgrounds so this hop was a little challenge for me. 
Also I wanted to create something a little different. 
Where we live we have a few wineries around - Casella's - DeBortollis, and it is common to give wine at Christmas so I have made a Gift Box for bottle which you could also use for chocolates or anything else.

 I hope you like it.




 I have used the Typeset Designer Series Paper

Crazy Crafters Team Craft Day



Wow what an awesome time we had. 
I had the opportunity to travel to Melbourne Vic on Saturday to the Crazy Crafters Team craft day. Left home (which is in the middle of woop woop NSW) was a nice 42 deg Celsius, got to city and was only 23 deg, what a change for me. 
There was 3 make and take sessions, which I demonstrated one of showing how to change the look of your Designer Series Paper.

Here I showed how to change the look of your Back To Black DSP.



On these 2 cards I used the Dots stamp from Dotty Angles with ink pads.



All you have to do is stamp randomly with 4 different colours over the black and white DSP


On these samples, I coloured the images in with the Blendabilities

Isn't it amazing how you can change the look.

Here are a few more pic's from the day.
