And, what you have been waiting for, here's the five fabulous projects that everyone made at the Hamilton Extravaganza...
This first one uses one of my favourite stamp sets from the new Annual Catalogue - Traveler. This “Olde Worlde” envelope card was taught by Rosie and Christine...
I love the design of the flexi-fold card, taught by Rhonda and Bev. The punch art fruit on this card is fun!
Irene and Rayleen taught this elegant Blackberry Bliss card stamped with the Corner Garden background stamp and heat embossed in white. This is a perfect card for those special occasions... engagements, weddings and anniversaries.
This is only one of the variations for Jacque and Andrea's project. They used the All Abloom DSP Stack and everyone personalised their project with different inspiring words, colours and trim...
Just like the gift pouch with the hot chocolate above, Kirstie and I used the Gift Card Enclosure Packs to create a thin gift box, which was decorated with Moonlight DSP and filled with Notecard and Envelopes stamped with the Work of Art stamps...
We had such a great day and are all looking forward to the next one - Hamilton Christmas Extravaganza in November 2014.
