creating triangle tri fold using Stampin' Up!

This is one of the current make and takes that I am doing at workshops. Everyone seems to love it! I know that I do. It is using the beautiful tea party designer series paper and the "A Flower For Al Seasons" stamp set. This stamp set is a relatively cheap set ($24.95) but very versatile! I think that the frog in the set is tooo cute! I have made this card basing it on black card stock, layering with a sheet of certainly celery and than overlaping with the "tea party" pink dots. I have wrapped around the main image with the green (looks too me like certainly celery) ribbon,that is free in a ribbon bundle this month for anyone who puts in an order over $100 (you get two colours of ribbon- see flier on blog)
If you would like to see how this card is made, you can hold a workshop, invite your friends over and make some stuff for free!! Please email me to find out how

Tri Shutter Card

For my workshops, I like to ask the hostess what she or he would like to see made. I have a workshop on the weekend, where my wonderful hostess, had asked to see the tri shutter card. I have seen these cards and gee they look nice. But, me being me, never had ventured to make one. So I decided I had better get cracking and make one. I made this a few weeks ago, was going to post it, but the lovely Bec had posted one on her blog the same night and I decided against posting mine in case people thought I was a copy cat lol. Bec's blog is under my paper angels links if you would like to have a look at her gorgeous card.
So, with Mum up here I felt the urge to create!! This is what I came up with! I used pink pirouette as the base card stock. I really like this years in colors! I than added black as a border colour to the raspberry tart designer series paper. I used white ink onto two of my black squares and the gorgeous "Great Friend" Stamp Set, that is available in the mini, for sale until the 30Th November. I really hope that they add this set to the next years September release of our new Stampin' Up! idea book and catalogue.
SO AFTER a bit of measuring and scoring and folding I came up with this card. I really like it, and am planning on using this design of card into my November Christmas card workshops! After adding a brad with a pink rhinestone i was happy.
I hope that my hostess on the weekend likes it! I hope that you do

Gate Fold Card

Here is my first attempt at the gate fold card. I love the idea of the card, but am not too happy with the colouring. I think a brighter colour would look much nicer. Am planning on doing it again using the washington apple DSP.
This card has been done using the perfect plum as a card base, and than I used the sprinkles stamp in perfect plum on pale plum cs. I brushed over the cs with the ink pad to give it that older look. I than used the "priceless" butterfly in the same way, and circle and scalloped punched it.

Briannan's card.. better late than never!

This is the card that Briannan made for her friend. Sorry its taken so long to post, but with Julian being so ill (had him up to the Dr's twice as his breathing was dreadful and he did not eat for 8 days and had a nice temp that whole time) I have gotten his flu, yeah, love getting sick and not being able to take anything for it with being pregnant. Ended up with losing my voice for 3 days as my throat was so sore and infected, still have the flu now. But Julian is having a sleep and I have had 5 minutes alone on the computer...
So here it is Briannan's card. I think that she did a top job on it.
